What happened to pluto, what happened, and what is being hidden? lol #9 time zones prove it is round? Round earthers say our earth spins one side faces the stationary sun causing day and night? hahahaha more bullshit...I could easily argue the earth is not spinning and the sun and the moon are the ones which are moving and are not as large or far as people think... Oh wait let me see the details of bullshit reason #9 quote from - [link to imagine.gsfc.nasa.gov] "The circumference of the Earth at the equator is 25,000 miles. The Earth rotates in about 24 hours. Therefore, if you were to hang above the surface of the Earth at the equator without moving, you would see 25,000 miles pass by in 24 hours, at a speed of 25000/24 or just over 1000 miles per hour...cont...Earth is also moving around the Sun at about 67,000 miles per hour." Do you know how fast 1000 miles/hr (1609.34 km/hr) is? Please imagine spinning a giant ball at that speed. re-quote: "Therefore, if you were to hang above the surface of the Earth at the equator without moving, you would see 25,000 miles pass by in 24 hours" According to this 'round earther' source, this means if I go in a hot air balloon when there is no wind and hang around in the air for 12 hours ( I only mention 12 to make my point clear you can use less or more hours too) I will end up in another country! Not to mention that this round earther source failed to mention why clouds can appear to move slowly across the sky while we are spinning at 1000 miles/hr...The clouds above us are not rotating at the speed of the rotation of the earth, as they are not attached to this rotating earth (as pointed out in the re-quote)...so they should visually look as though they are moving a lot faster across the sky...There would be a visual proof of the difference between relatively slow clouds to the speed of the rotation of the earth spinning at 1000 miles/hr. (1609.34 km/hr)... not to mention this is all happening while we are going 67, 000 miles/hr (107826.048 km/hr) around the sun! All the way to bullshit reason #1 we have pictures hahaha...#1 yet perhaps the weakest reason considering how our eye perceives things and it's relationship to light etc. but especially considering the picture used...typical bullshit as ususal...is the earth a perfect circle/sphere as seen in the picture? wait a minute, isn't it an Oblate spheroid, there's nothing poking out the sides of this supposed aerial painti..eerrr...photo? we also have photoshop today and NASA in its prime back in the day...they are still around...unfortunately these days instead of making entertaining hollywood movies (with great scripts) they shifted to the video game market because they were losing business...now they only provide 3d simulations representing reality to tingle your 'curiosity'... this video should actually be titled 'why we don't really know whether or not the earth is round' Other people have addressed round earth arguments such as the typical #3 argument seen in the video...I am not bothered to go through every bullshit reason obviously nor do I feel I need too, to know what is true about its shape, you obviously haven't taken the time to look at any counter arguments (and if you have and know the truth you are just trolling)...but it is clear that this video uses some extreme bullshit to 'prove' for fact the roundness of the earth and I feel I have pointed out some of this. Believe what you want and go ahead, live on this fairy tale round NASA Galileo (whatever happened to the greek philosophers?) spaceship, soaring and spinning at unheard speeds...I just don't feel like doing the same. Nonetheless I somewhat understand why round earthers believe what they do, so please don't take offense by how sarcastic I sound... I wish you the best. I have doubted the fact of us spinning around on this earth from the time I was 'educated' about it and today I understand why it is truly bullshit, so I'm just calling it how I see it. Hopefully you will understand it is not as clear or 'matter of fact' as you think. Good luck. ![]() |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 9094168 in flatland there is no under oh by the way, if it is flat then the earth does not have to be as small and lacking of resources as people think. Hint: It could stretch a lot further than you think...of course it wouldn't be as easy to get to the 'new world' as one would imagine especially if you cling to round earth theory. There are layers to the earth; you can have layers with a sphere earth (towards a center) or with a flat earth (stack of cards). Layers does not implicate round over flat. ![]() |
