Then what are they? Because I keep missing your proof.

None of them are on this board that I've seen, and if there are any they most likely aren't the brightest bulbs on the tree.....much like you.
Obviously not on this board and you are criticizing people you do not even know. Way to be ignorant and close-minded. *high five*

My statistic was right now, was right at the dawn of creation, and will be right until the end of the universe.
I can pull stats out of my ass too. Doesn't make them right.

Yes, you do violate gravity by going against it. Gravity pushes toward the center of the earth, and you are going away from it. You violate gravity when you jump, when you get into a rocket ship and escape from the gravitational pull of our planet, etc.
I have a feeling you don't have a degree in physics do you? Gravity is an acceleration that is directed towards the center of the Earth. When you jump you produce a force that will accelerate you away from the Earth. While you are moving away gravity always has an effect on you, which is why you slow down, stop, then come back down towards Earth. If you broke free of gravity then you would just fly off into space.

The way a rocket ship works is that it produces an acceleration that goes in the opposite direction of gravity's acceleration. These two accelerations will always be in battle with each other and to get into orbit you have beat out gravity's acceleration with your own. Once you get into orbit, gravity is still affecting you (that is why you orbit), just that you are moving fast enough tangent to the Earth that you can stay in orbit.

It's no more impossible to make gravity disappear than it is to make natural rights disappear.
It is not about making them disappear, it is about breaking them. You can break any one of your rights. You can not break the rule of gravity because you can not make gravity not effect you.

I can say I have the natural right to own slaves and use the same arguments as you and we would be at the same place.
What? Did you just not delete this or what?
