I have a question.

The Sun is larger than the Earth, and thus has a stronger gravitational pull. It is strong enough to keep something as massive as the Earth in orbit. So why isn't it strong enough to pull all of us in?
Is it something to do with distance? So if gravity on Earth stopped, we'd all be pulled into the Sun?
