The theory of universal gravitation (TUG hereafter) has a stranglehold on scientific inquiry far beyond its worth as testable, empirical science. It is my assertion that the only reason people subscribe to this theory is because they have been brainwashed by gravitationist anti-knowledge (GAK hereafter) disseminated by what I refer to as the conspiracy to undermine new thinking (which I haven’t thought of an acronym for yet).
First off, gravity is just a theory. The reason they call it the Theory of Universal Gravitation is because they don’t really know and they have to call it something. Forget about useful frameworks for organizing and interpreting data, if you don’t know, just say so. It isn’t the Law of Gravity (contrary to what some gravitationist propaganda would have you believe) because it doesn’t always apply. Look at outer space, there’s no gravity there. The gravitationist dogma spouted by all the mouthpieces of the scientific clergy is merely intended to suppress facts such as these, to keep people from asking questions concerning the foundation of this secular religion.
The TUG is an unfalsifiable tautology that can be used to explain any data. The gymnastics of which gravitationists are capable are as amusing as they are desperate. When presented with such clear anti-gravitation evidence as the flight of birds, for example, the gravitationists respond with convoluted ad hoc rationalizations using fancy terms such as thrust, lift, drag, and aspect ratio. The problem with this meaningless twaddle is that it’s only relevant if you’ve already accepted the TUG! If the presupposition of the TUG’s validity is a prerequisite to understanding the data used to support it, I submit that this is a metaphysical research program and not science.
Gravity, contary to the gravitationist party line, cannot be observed. Only the presumed effects of gravity have ever been observed, and the data in this regard are just as easily explained by any other theory. Though presented as objective support for a realistic scientific hypothesis, 'evidence' from the gravitationist is as worthless as rancid pus secreted from the carcass of a dead animal and should be scorned as such. If their theory can be said to lack empirical significance, the gravitationists’ track record in the lab is even worse still. Their presumed gravitational constant (
Gthat was an easy one) looks impressive on paper:
G = 6.67259 10^-11 m^3 s^-2 kg^-1
However, the mathematical precision such an equation promises has never been delivered.
G has only ever been calculated out to three decimal places, in scientific terms about as imprecise as a high note sung by Britney Spears. In fact, Wikipedia says Only the first four digits are known to be correct. Thus, the gravitational constant is the least precisely determined [of] physical constants.
Science Frontiers asserts that gravity may not be best described by an inverse square law in an article entitled ‘THE GRAVITATIONAL "CONSTANT" IS NOT!’ Even ScienceDaily magazine asserts that According to Wikipedia, ‘the gravitational constant is the least precisely determined [of] physical constants.’ As is always the case with pseudoscience, wishful thinking has had to fill in the numbers that lab work cannot. The brainwashing inherent in the presuppositions of gravitationism prevent even scientific practitioners from looking at the concept objectively.
The supposedly airtight case for gravitationism is full of holes, and the scientific community is finally hearing the whistles. Maverick physicists Gundlach and Merkowitz at the University of Washington issued
this long overdue manifesto that is as harsh in its accusations against the scientific priesthood as it is scientifically pioneering: Unlike most other physical constants, the value of
G is not precisely known due to the weakness of gravity [as a scientific paradigm]. In addition...[all] these...measurements lie.’ Determined to right the wrongs and bring science out of its gravitationist Dark Ages, physicists like these are exposing the deception that has always lain at the heart of gravitationism, behind its crumbling faade of respectability and impregnability.
Interest in the anti-gravitationism revolution is surging as the web community, tired of the misinformation from the gravitationist Politburo, demands a paradigm shift.
Websites like this one are so numerous that a search on ‘anti-gravity’ returns 25,000 like-minded pioneers, heirs to the spirit of Pasteur and Newton. It’s clear that the days of gravitationism’s monopoly are numbered. If it weren’t for the institutionalized brainwashing that takes place in the materialist thought-control centers, and the vested interests of the corporate gravitationist labs and industries, this revolution would have taken place centuries ago.
