    What is this flat earth controversy that is going on all over the internet? Why do they think the earth is flat? Why would they lie about it? You know how many people it would take for such a lie?

    KJB
    Proverbs 18:13
    He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him.



    I would persuade those to watch it all, but on the second video if your having a hard time hearing and understanding them, skip to 21:30 mark. It get's very serious there.

    All "Flat Earhers" are trolls.
    It's the only plausible explanation.

    It is the smallest of all controversies and you lie for many reasons not the least of which is you simply lack the maturity to admit you are wrong even when you know you are.

    It's a bunch of trolling that has attracted some gullible fools who think it's serious.

    They don't really think that, they're just trolling. That is, except for the stupidest of them.

    Trolls lie. The gullible don't think they're lying.

    Uh.........really? That's really what you're going to go with? You know how many people it would take to lie about the globe? It would easily take a million times the number of people that it would take to lie about flat Earth, so in acknowledging the ridiculousness of such a large number of conspirators, you have beaten your own argument before you've even begun.

    I posted them because these are the most common asked questions about the flat earth.

    Why do you think it would take millions of people? I mean if I had you build me a satellite, you don't have to know what I do with it, you just have to build it. I would say just a couple thousand would have to know. I would assume that's only about 0.000028% of the population, and that's just a guess. Even if it was a million, I can see how that could be done. I mean if two or three wanted to tell the world, they would just be looked at as a conspiracist.




    The link above is a 8 mile drone flight over the ocean. Looks flat to me. If you skip ahead to where you see a different color of water at the horizon, watch that all the way until the drone gets there, you will see that what's there was there the entire time. Nothing going over a curve.


    I can't believe people think this is real. "Space may be the final frontier but it's made in a Hollywood basement"!


    The sun is not 93,000,000 miles away. As you can clearly see. There will be more to come, thousands of people are sending up high altitude balloons to get to the bottom of this.

    I'm thoroughly familiar with FE claims. They're all BS.

    Ex: The FE crowd can't agree how high the Sun is, yet they're SURE it isn't 93M miles - lol.\
    Q: Why can't they settle on one number?
    A: Because they're pulling numbers out their arse.

    Then YOU (not crazy YouTube videos) should have no trouble answering them.

    There are over a million licenced pilots in the world right now, and that's just one of many occupations in which everybody would have to be "in on it". And few, if any, of these people have any reason to lie.


    I'm not going to watch hours of bullshit from the crazy section of YouTube. If you can't make an argument without relying on such trash sources, then your argument is invalid and/or you don't understand it well enough to be arguing it. I have never seen you cite a legitimate source, or make a valid logical argument. And when confronted with undeniable facts and arguments, you just ignore them and start a new thread saying the same old ****.

    This guy is hilarious, I can see why you keep him around.
    Is anyone else slightly worried that he is being held by a brainwashing cult though?

    Then don't ask questions about our flat earth. Tell me, what's a legitimate source? Does it require those with white cloaks and PHD's, the very people feeding us lies? It is the people (normal people), who are uncovering this lie.

    This is what you said. "And when confronted with undeniable facts and arguments, you just ignore them and start a new thread saying the same old".
    No, you never look into the evidence being presented (I am confronting you with undeniable facts and arguments), you have already made your mind up. There is no point in us discussing anything further on the matter. Your actually doing, what your claiming, I am doing. Look at the evidence, draw your own conclusions from there. If you choose to not look at it, again your doing what your claiming me of doing. How can you make an argument against something.......if you don't know what it is?

    It sounds like you don't even know the model your arguing for. Pilots and people cannot see the curvature of the earth from a plane. According to your beloved scientists, you must be at about 100,000ft to 120,000ft. But if you would look into it, when normal people send up high altitude balloons to that elevation, the earth is flat. "Pilots" that's funny!!!!!

    One simple question: why does a trip around the Southern Hemisphere take the same amount of time as a trip around the Northern Hemisphere? Every time you are confronted with this question, you deflect or ignore. It destroys your case, so you either need to address this fact directly, or admit you are wrong.

    That is answered in the videos. And in a very compelling way. I am not going to answer multiple times to everybody....that is what the vids are for. If people refuse to look into them, then quit asking questions.

    So your strategy is to post a mountain of garbage, and tell people to sift through it, so YOU don't have to answer basic questions about your own position. The makers of these garbage videos are not here to be cross-examined, you are. Hell, you can't even say which video and the time stamp, you just try to send people snipe hunting through hours of crap.

    Then don't look into it. I'm not here for your pleasure or to do as you say. All your doing is rambling on and on and on.

    Ok I'll tell you what: say which video contains the answer to my question, and the time stamp, and I'll watch it.

    I'd like to say, I think the earth is flat, I have no proof, I just think it is. Even from a young child I just think it's flat... I am not walking and living upside down. jrr777, do you think there is a firmament?

    If I live on the lower part of the 'globe' I see myself as living upside down.

    Virtually everything is moving and spinning. This combined with gravity is why all large bodies in the universe are globe shaped. There is no up or down in space.

    Yes, I believe even in the heliocentric model a solid structure is required for a pressure system. One cannot get a pressure system without a solid structure securing that system. Especially while sitting within a "vacuum".

    If you look at the reply you did here, it is "troll" by the way we define it. Good luck with that. Comments like that is all ball-earthers can bring.

    I'm thinking of adding a 10th video to my award winning series on the FE. ;) https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRijpTNX3h3-Tbie5Vcnzxg/videos

    It's like this: It's 1900, pre-NASA, pre-CGI, and for the 1st time, mankind is starting to wonder what shape Earth is. (Go with me here.) All we know for sure is, lunar eclipses happen regularly, but it has never been recorded that all people on Earth could view the same eclipse at the same time. This rules out Earth being flat, but what shape is it?

    We know from Foucault's Pendulum that Earth is rotating, so that explains not all people on Earth viewing the same eclipse. We also know that in every eclipse in all of recorded history, the shadow seen on the Moon shows a curved profile. What shape is it that always has a circular shadow, from any position or orientation?

    There is only one: a sphere. Your thoughts?

    No, you don't know from Foucault's Pendulum that the earth is moving. Many scientists say it proves nothing and requires a precise method of both the tool it's swinging from at the top, and the manner in which it is dropped. Most if not all pendulums weigh more than you do. How is it they can feel and show the earth's rotation yet we cannot? Are you not standing there watching the pendulum? Why is it there is zero effect on you, as you stare at the lie of the pendulum, and yet there is an effect on the pendulum? Have you ever heard of a magician? Distraction is key.

    There are far more experiments proving the earth to be motionless. Even though they were attempts to prove it's moving. Like Airy's Failure. It's called a failure because he set out to prove earth's movement. But he failed.

    And a side note on your "for the first time man is starting to wonder what the shape of the earth is." No, after a man get's a certain age, he would of always asked that, along with GOd or a creator, unless of course someone had convinced them they know. Which is the same way many civilizations such as the Mayans, had convinced their people to adhere to them. They used the heavenly bodies. For if someone could predict an eclipse, (and the Mayans could based off a flat earth), they would look to them as God's and all knowing.

    Think of the first man, all by themselves wondering at amazement what could possibly be going on. Or was there more than one person in the evolution theory. Did whatever they evolve from magically produce a male and female of every species and in a timely fashion where the first one did not die or get to old to reproduce with the other. For evolution one must believe that. Evolution is a branch of the heliocentric model. It steers people away from God. And it has many branches. Matter of fact, "you will know them by their fruits".

    You may imagine yourself a magician, but I'll not be distracted. I'll respond here just to the part where you responded to my post. Please check out my video on Foucault:
    It was my first, the others are done a bit better. Still, it's not bad.

    Foucault's pendulum weighs 62 lbs. I don't know why you think it's weight somehow invalidates the experiment. Is that your claim?

    You have the highlighted part backwards. The pendulum is unaffected by Earth's motion, that's the point. It swings and returns, but the Earth moves under it. You don't feel Earth's motion because it's so slow, smooth, and unchanging. You're on a turntable (the Earth) rotating once per day. You'd need superhuman powers to detect this with your senses alone. That's where Foucault comes in.
