Sradac Posted December 1, 2008 Posted December 1, 2008 "For every action there is an opposite, and equal re-action" thats pretty much accepted worldwide as being true. as is einsteins general theory of relativity. so how do these two exist in the same world and are both accepted worldwide? where is the opposite and equal reaction in the general theory of relativity, of space or space/time pushing down on us? i say space or space/time because I dont believe in time. i never believed in gravity either long before i knew of einsteins theories and low and behold he pretty much proved me correct in not believing in gravity, therefore im pretty sure im right in not believing in "time" or at least as its perceived by the western world at the moment.
Kyrisch Posted December 1, 2008 Posted December 1, 2008 Create a science forum and "low and behold", pottery will be cracked. >.< Newton's Third Law (for every action there is an equal but opposite reaction) applies to forces. Einstein's Theory of General Relativity comments on the geometry of space-time. Please read up on both before challenging either.
farmboy Posted December 1, 2008 Posted December 1, 2008 How did Einstein prove that gravity doesn't exist? I would say the evidence that gravity exists is undeniable.
swansont Posted December 1, 2008 Posted December 1, 2008 How did Einstein prove that gravity doesn't exist? I would say the evidence that gravity exists is undeniable. He demonstrated that what we perceive as gravity is due to the curvature of space.
farmboy Posted December 1, 2008 Posted December 1, 2008 (edited) He demonstrated that what we perceive as gravity is due to the curvature of space. Yeah I realise that, but it seems to me that this is an explanation for how gravity works rather than a demonstration it doesn't exist. As I said previously, the evidence that gravity exists is undeniable. Edited December 1, 2008 by farmboy
Riogho Posted December 1, 2008 Posted December 1, 2008 He didn't say it didn't exist, GR just says that is exists differently than we thought it did.
