Any other science gurus want to defend tpanther and metmom?

What we have here is claims that gravity cannot be directly detected.

And a claim that water displaced by an immersed [human] body measures weight, mass and fat content, rather than volume.

Anyone care to defend these claims?

Gravity can be neither seen nor touched. It is not material.

YOU evos are the ones who have been consistent in telling us that gravity is detected by the effect it has on objects around us. That is not direct detection.

You can detect the effect of gravity... but you really cannot detect gravity. Place yourself in free fall and then try to detect it. It's there. But where? And in what direction is its force vector? How many gravity sources are there? Where? Can you detect them?

Hey, js, I just found a wooden and graphite writing utensil with your IQ stamped on it.

Oh BTW, pretty strawman you've got there.

You might want to work on the eyebrows a bit more, though.
