(December 12, 2013 at 9:27 pm)I and I Wrote: The interpretation of studies will always be determined by human bias. Scientists concede that very little is known about gravity and yes, to a cave mans mind gravity was non existent. Unless there is evidence that they knew the rate of gravity. If you are about to claim that claim about gravity is "true" regardless of time period then you are asserting that truth is outside of human perception. If this is your claim then how would one go about proving this?
And yet, cavemen understood basic concepts such as "things fall to the ground when you drop them". If not, they would not have developed spear tossing and archery. They understood the concept we describe as 'gravity'.
You are mistakenly conflating the concept with the choice of terms used to describe how the concept works, but that's your problem, not science's. Even if we don't know precisely how it works, it does still work.
