Those crafty magnetic fields......making us stay on Earth.

No. It's new to me. I missed your thread. My favorite part is when the "Intelligent Falling" proponent says "Let's look at the evidence" then opens the Bible. It's parody, but it's pretty close to the truth.

What in the junk is Wahoo's?

Wahoo's is this weird, snowboard themed, fresh-mex place that specializes in fish tacos. I don't order the fish tacos, though. I order the fish enchiladas with green sauce. When they ask me if I want beans (black or pinto), I say that I'd prefer extra rice instead. The rice is good. They also have Pepsi products instead of Coke so I can get my Mountain Dew fix. Delicious.

I'm seriously laughing so hard right now.

No Evidence for claims of gods

No consensus evidence for God or previously for the gods has been presented. Your statement begs the fundamental issue and implied assertion God.
Again, multiple god myths have been products of human cultures and civilizations. They are all attempts to explain by assertion rather than by reason the universe which those people observed with eye and ear. They were speculating and asserted long before the telescope, before the microscope, and before what we know today as consensus science.

I do not believe God or gods cause gravity. I do not believe entities of conscousness cause any such things. I thing far greater sources in terms of Physics is the Key. I don't know if I believe in God. I think there might be something great but I think we can conclude that it is most likely something far beyond our understanding in terms of Mathematics or Physics. I think the word God is given to something we do not understand but make ourselves think we do understand.
I was not claiming God exists. I was saying the idea of a god being the source of gravity is stupid. I am more for Science being the cause not a god.
