Let me make the correction by editing the statement in post #2 from
“Gravity causes matter to attract matter giving matter its mass”, to say, “Gravity causes matter to attract matter giving matter its weight, and weight equals mass times the acceleration due to gravity.”

That is of course true, the reach of gravity is infinite in the mainstream as well as in the ISU. My point was that in the ISU there is a cause of the infinite reach of gravity which was the whole point of my thread.
What is the cause of the infinite reach of gravity in the mainstream?
