Falling? Like due to gravity, the magical thing flat earth people say doesn't exist?

It must be magic because the physicists sure can't explain it.

"Everything is a source of gravity, for reasons that we ultimately do not understand." -- http://van.physics.illinois.edu/QA/listing.php?id=195

Give me a break.  Seriously?  Yeah, it's unexplainable inasmuch as all the "why are we here?" and "what is our purpose in life?" also remain unanswered from a scientific perspective.  So, you take that and not only use it as a reason to denounce gravity, but simultaneously place the same handicap on your own FE bullshit, as well as any and all other theories that have ever been created (without realizing it).  What's worse is you're taking a theory (of gravity) that has all of the evidence, sound modeling, and predictability you could ask for, and cast it aside in favor of some flimsy, weak-ass theory that is wholly unsubstantiated and internally contradictory.  You're so far up your ass that you think ignorance somehow can't find you there.  In reality, you're swimming in ignorance, and it smells like pure bullshit.

You're the one who claims a day is 23 hours and 56 minutes in long, who's the one swimming bullshit?

Oh, it's still you.  I guess you missed the point of referencing the sidereal day.  Your point had been that after ~180 days, day and night should be essentially reversed if the Earth is rotating around the sun.  The problem with that is that there is one more sidereal day per year than there are solar days.  This means that after a solar half-year, the Earth, relative to the stars (sidereal time), is facing the opposite direction.
