Weight is measured, not gravity.
Gravity cannot be measured.
Why is that?
Because gravity is a concept.
Newton saw the same thing everyone else did. He postulated that there was some force, he called it gravity. Gravity is not known by any of the 5 physical senses by which we can measure the physical, gravity is known by the mind alone as a concept.
The force of gravity simply cannot be measured, the effects of gravity can be measured, but not gravity itself.
Gravity is a calculation of effects, suggested (which is why it is still a theory) as a factor in the way matter reacts to other other matter.
Take all matter away, where is gravity?
LOL!!!
Truly and accurately speaking we measure matter, not energy or forces.
The mind (which is not physical) allows man to project into reality the application of mathematics (which is also not physical) to matter and energy to predict what will happen in the future event.
We measure the past, we predict in the future, but the present moment is beyond any measurement, along with gravity because the tools of measurement are physical, and the calculations that yield the predictions or equations are not physical.
It is clear the non physical exists, and it is also clear the non physical influences the physical, so why is it so hard for people to grasp the concept (also non physical) of God who is non physical having causal impact on the creation of the physical?
p.s. If you really want to be accurate about things, there are other logical possibilities beyond gravity that would explain the way material bodies interact, however I am not arguing that a relationship doesn't exist between physical bodies, and if we want to call that gravity, so be it. The name is irrelevant. The point is that we cannot measure it, we can only calculate it in the mind because it is impossible to measure gravity with physical instrumentation.
