Hi Stuart.
Thank you for takine the time construct such a well thought out comment.
I did think making a reference to belief would have folk so put off (given the religion thing) that the point I was makingwould be lost in emotional responce.
I know once I would have burred up if someone said about any of my scientific knowledge was mere belief.
But I do think for so many folk they must accept a theory with a degree of belief simply because they personally did not conduct the experiments etc but scientific faith certainly is not blind faith (for most I hope at least).
AND thank you for your kind words about my presence here ... I have in my way tried to be entertaining, and that is a big call when talking about alternative gravity ideas) mainly to encourage others to participate. I feel that by presenting myself as a mug I must give others confidence to have their say in the knowledge there is a resident crack pot here who they can look down to.
You are correct that I consider things at lenght but I am always at great pains not to get into real science speak ...if I am underestimated because of this I am not worried because my greatest quality is supreme humility.
The funny thing about the push gravity is it has lead me on a course of reading and research that finally tells me no one really knows much about gravity ...this was a shock as I thought we lived in a time where all was known and there were no more mountains to climb.
But understanding gravity is in my view the most important thing for humans to do... when we understand it I think we will understand the universe better than we can comprehend possible.
I am confident that one day folk will realize that there is no force of attraction ... I see it and it makes everything understandable (in my view of course with no bearing as to being right)... so for Craig I guess that is what I do believe if in anything.
Again thank you for your input and kind words.
alex
