further - i made no accusation of insanity towards the OP
but as you insist that i am " uncivilised " - i will state that you are insane - and further are incapable of comprehending basic english
as for your " explaination " - it mostly agrees with what i stated - go figure
There is nothing for me to talk out of.
Check my quote closely, I said ' size ' increases, not ' mass '.
Dont make me call in Phage lol.

I find your reply to OP's question to be wholly without merit, cause, or purpose.... and furthermore, to be uncivilized.
OP asked a simple, straightforward question, and you accuse them of having a mental illness?
You need to take a step backwards and re-examine your life, because you are failing at it poorly.
YES, the gravity of the earth is increasing.
Explained in my next post.
To blow up a balloon, one must have an outside force putting additional material inside of it in order to ' blow it up' . With the Earth, no one is blowing it up, the minute amount of accretion will not be sufficient to achieve noticeable differentiations. So its nothing like a balloon, its a poor analogy .
Also I didn't mention Phage because he can argue, but instead because he knows basic physics and can easily settle the dispute.
No it's YOU being stupid the OP said he had a joint problem hence the comment
"although i cannot make a diagnosis of what is actually wrong with you"
It seems that if anyone answers an OP an doesn't agree with them they are being rude or aggressive why don't you take a chill pill or just stfu altogether!

Already addressed it...
See: www.abovetopsecret.com...
please don't think the worst of everyone because they don't agree with the OP or you
Ok please go wiki the planet Saturn. its extremely large in size but its mass is incredibly low compared to other Jovian planets of similar size. Very low density.
So due to density, you can have the same mass occupy different sizes.
We know how to transform the energy of an atom into a powerful bomb - increasing the potential of that energy - is this not creating energy?

You are correct mankind does not yet fully understand the nature of gravity,
Mass doesn't disappear when you burn something. For instance, if you burn methane (CH4) by combining it with oxygen in the atmosphere (O2), you get carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O), as expressed by the following reaction:

We've removed over a quadrillion pounds from this spinning ball and the few rocks and dust falling from space ain't covered the mass we've removed from the planet. By burning it off.
