He suggested that in the same way as two monopoly-board characters would fall off a basketball if you span it, people should do the same and fall off the earth. The only reason real people don't fall off the earth is God.
Quite clearly not understanding that the basketball was too small to exert enough of it's own gravitation force upon the figures, he highlights a fundamental flaw in some people - education.
Does anyone else find people coming up with arguements against general science and evolution with uneducated ideas like this? It boggles the mind!

There's an evolution thread on the next page or two where someone suggest that since monkeys still exist, that humans did not come from monkeys or that we are in no way related to them....
Despite the fact that evolution does not say that humans come from monkeys.... and despite the fact that all living creatures from plants, to octopii to humans have something like 95% or more of the same DNA,
The arrogance and miseducation here is crazy.

Every religious argument against evolution is like this. Very few of them have a clue.

As sorry I am that I missed that I have to thank you for bringing it up. We can observe the effects of gravity, it is a pretty solid theory.

maybe he/she was attempting a bit of irony, and took the question off because he/she couldn't get it to sound obviously ironic.
Just trying to help.

He probably wrote it after huffing "something" in the basketball...

I guess he did not ever hear of gravity.
God is a mystery, deal with it.
