No, it's more likely you live in some constant fantasy world not unlike

Odd, how can you get on a world-wide public forum and show yourself to 
be such a dumb shit that even Kenseto looks like a genius in comparison?

If physicists know what causes gravity, they perhaps you can deign to 
tell us just what the mechanism is. No, dumbfuck, "warps in spacetime" 
is NOT a mechanism!
