Is this debate worth it?
Offline (I really don't know where this should go in categories) I don't know if this is even worth my time.
Here is the link to the question and why this person decided to contact me. My User name here is the same as it is there.

Subject: ? Gravity?
Message: Oh yea I suppose you bealive in the theory of Gravity too do you? Well the Bible clearly disproves that silly theory. If man hasn't clearly disproved it his self. Gravity is supposed to hold every thing down right. But thousands of pound planes fly like a bird. How do you think Jesus walked on water? if there was something called gravity it would have pulled him under. That proves there had to be a God that holds everything on the ground and lets them up when he thinks he should. That clearly proves my God and disproves your silly theory of gravity. So there.
(I wish when I replied it had saved my response
After my response explaining what a theory in science means and that I've even walked on water (while it was frozen) that that you should just believe in something because it was written down.
Subject: Re: ? Gravity?
Message: Just because a book is written it does not prove it is true. But if it is written by God it proves it is true. You keep wanting to say the Bible is written by man but you cant even prove that. HA!

The Bible disproves gravity?
It's that goddam Nah-ah defense which you can't get around....there is no logical defense to someone who isn't even listening.....
No Gods, Know Peace.
I refered back to it being no evidence that god did it so why assume god did it. Then said that a monkey on the dark side of the moon controls every aspect of reality with its feces. It is invisible and unmeasureable by any means
Subject: Re: ? Gravity?
Message: But there has to be a reason for a monkey being on the other side of the moon you see you are just being silly now.
My reply: what was the difference between your god and the monkey?
[Edit: Thanks for you replies, it is either a joke trying to waste my time or too crazy for me.]

I think a theist read the satirical article at the Onion and thought it was real.

What the hell is she talking about? Her bible may say such things but that's a load of bollocks. The first chapter (or second) of the True Gospel (note the capitalisation) tells us what really happens and why gravity is fake.
It says there very clearly (and with a diagram to boot) that the FSM holds us all down with his noodly appendages, and the reason we're growing is because the population is growing so the pressure is constantly being distributed between more and more people!
Organised religion is the ultimate form of blasphemy.

The answer is no.
This MUST repeat MUST be a joke. NO one is that stupid! No one!
And if it is not...then may the flying spaghetti monster help us all.
"Physical reality” isn’t some arbitrary demarcation. It is defined in terms of what we can systematically investigate, directly or not, by means of our senses. It is preposterous to assert that the process of systematic scientific reasoning arbitrarily excludes “non-physical explanations” because the very notion of “non-physical explanation” is contradictory.
