Stewie, I don't know what is under us. Before I became a Flat Earther, I always theorized that everything has a beginning and end, and nothing is infinite, so to think that below us is the end of the universe, wouldn't sound too crazy to me. Other celestial bodies are balls because they are bombarded on all sides by the Atheric whirlpool, while the Earth is squashed by it's push.

We could also be a big experiment being observed by Aliens, or perhaps were being manipulated by the reptilians who originate from the other realm (pocket of habitable land).

Props to Buffalo for appearing to make a sensible argument and lasting this long.

How about I answer your challenge with a challenge? Prove the Earth isn't round.

the sun is supposedly 149.6 million km away, why does it change so greatly in size in a matter of hours?

The link you provided is interesting buffalo. It shows a smaller sun at the horizon than in the sky. Yet through optical illusions it is actually the other way around. The sun appears to be bigger at the horizon than in the sky. Nice try though.

2:45 It enlarges as it rises above the horizon. Your entire existence is a nice try though.

The Sun appears to be smaller when it "rises" because most of its rays of light are actually being ricochet off the atmosphere. We see a "Larger" Sun when its rays hit the earth at a more direct angle.



1. If the earth doesn't spin on an axis then explain magnetic poles. Are Compasses also made up by NASA propaganda? If compasses don't work then how did Columbus reach Cuba? How did Magellan sail around the world if his compass was hogwash?

2. If the Sun is a flashlight then what kind of material contains the beam? How does this material survive so close to the sun without burning up for millions of years? How does this material stay so close to the Sun if gravity also doesn't exist?

3. If the world was flat then I should be able to see (unobstructed) all the way to Japan from my comfy porch on the California Coast (provided I had a powerful enough telescope). There would be no horizon if the Earth was flat.

4. Additionally, Yamato Class Battleships made by Japan in WW2 carried the largest guns every mounted on a ship of all time, capable of firing 26 miles. Their firing solution had to account for the curvature of the earth to land their shots. Are you saying that Japanese Engineering is also propaganda?

What we need is a court to execute those Flat Earther like what they have done to us in the past

Well if you want me to believe in flat earth theory, using violence instead of logic is one way to get me to question your rhetoric.

Ok OK, IF YOU THINK THE EARTH IS FLAT, THEN PROVE THAT THE EARTH IS NOT A SPERHE.

I don't, I'm saying that you cannot kill/silence folk instead of addressing their arguments without their arguments gaining some credibility.

A simple demonstration that the world is not flat can be shown by noting how altitude changes horizons. Consider this experiment. Two people take boats with masts (and radios) and sail apart on a calm day till they just lose sight of each other. They then climb up their masts, and lo and behold, they can see one another. How can this be?

This happens because as the two people sail apart from each other, they sail around the curvature of the earth such that they slip over the horizon. But when they climb up their masts, the increase in altitude let's them see further over the horizon.

This happens because the surface of the earth is curved. This would not happen if the earth was flat.

Now, if you repeat this experiment in each direction, you show that the earth curves away from the initial spot at the same approximate angle in all directions. This implies the earth is spherical (at least at that point). You probably want to confirm this observation by repeating the experiment in different spots on the earth, and when you do, you will see that the results will be the same.

This simplest explanation for this phenomenon is a spherical earth.

Ive been to astronomy observations, you see satilites all the time, they are like stars, but they shimmer and move slightly
