Globe earth is an idea, with no proof or evidence.



let the nonsensical excuses begin...……………..

See? I ask again: What evidence WON'T you handwave away? You prove my point further with every post.

Tell me exactly what evidence of a globe Earth you won't merely dismiss out of hand. And imagine my shock when you don't.
 Quoting: 74444


Alas, clown, if you read the original post you'll find you are the one hand waving. Given your lack of understanding of proof I'll just disregard your concerns about point proving.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77447814


Ad hominem noted. How convenient for you, that you need not set up any goalposts whatsoever that will allow you to commit the egregious sin of changing your mind.

I'm not asking you for anything, you've showed what you've got and if it satisfies you then fine and well for you, run along and stop pushing ideas of as knowing. It's clear what I've asked for and clearer that now, three pages in, you still do not understand the content and context of the original post.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77447814


The original post does not state, clearly and simply, what evidence will prove a globe Earth *to you.* Since you cannot say, I can only tacitly conclude you are not thinking rationally about the idea. You can cite *no evidence whatsoever* that could be presented to change your mind. That's irrational, on its face.


Be intellectually honest and tell me you know you live on a spinning ball and I can call you a liar. Tell me that you believe that and I'll disagree but respect that at least. Still it ends the same, either fuck off with the lies or stop selling your ideology too me with pathetic videos or shite attempts of consensus or authoritative appeal.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77447814


Since you can, quite literally, reject *any and all* opposing evidence with your criteria (and thus far have), it renders your claim worthless. You can state *no observation or test whatsoever* that would invalidate the idea to you.

So, satellites, GPS, accurate navigation, basic trig and spherical geometry, shadows on the Moon, or the fact that I've seen the curve firsthand all mean nothing to you. I understand. But I ask again, what *could* prove the idea to you? Your inability to answer does not belie a weakness in the globe idea. It belies a weakness in something else.

No, the maker of the video (is it you trying to pimp your channel?) just doesn't understand it. It was rather humorous on the other thread where the video was first posted.
If the math didn't work then it would have been shown long before the coward who made the video ever heard of it.

Waffle on, Bobo, stop the fallacy notebook bullshit this is not a controlled debate and again it is not an ad-hom if it is true. You believe the word of men against all your senses and act as if you know it all, actions of a clown (someone who acts intentionally silly for the benefit of an audience).

So, I asked you to be intellectually honest and confirm you "know" you live on a spinning ball? Instead you fail and try to just turn it on it's head.

I am offering you nothing and selling you no ideas I have nothing to prove and the burden of proof comes with those making a claim.
I've told you before I can fly....you believe this? I can get pictures and video but just not show this in the real life.....you believe this? At what point can you believe this....maybe when you see it for yourself. Someone making outrageous claims should be asked for specifics.


Nothing could sell me an idea without a tangible measurement. All I have asked for is tangible measurement
I certainly do not think your claim to have seen the curvature of the earth first hand is meaningful nor true.

I look forward to your parroted response and intellectual dishonesty Bobo. Really go for it!!! Don't forget to wear funny clothes, big shoes, paint yer face and make people laugh by performing some hilarious tricks while you behave in such a silly way.

The point is, the masses are awakening. The truth is spreading faster each passing day, despite efforts at censorship. Flat Earth is yet another of dozens of key topics that the mainstream media won't touch, yet it keeps gaining momentum. I think it's because where we live is so foundational to who we are.

2) how far does the atomsphere go up in the sky and what is beyond it?

3) how is day and night created?

4) how do the seasons work on flat earth?

5) what holds the atmosphere in place?

Re: Globe Earth debunked
Simple Questions:

1) where is the exact center of Flat Earth?

2) where is the edge of Flat Earth?

3) How long is a mile at the exact center of Flat Earth?

4) How long is a mile at the edge of Flat Earth?

5) How many miles long is the edge of Flat Earth?

6) Is a mile a constant measurement on Flat Earth?

7) why or why not?
 Quoting: Masiro®


1) Where else the center of the earth!

2) as Neo said, there is no spoon, neither is there an edge, edge would not be correct

3) Same as it is on the other, better measurement are up to you

4)There is no edge, that would be incorrect question

5)That is not known, maybe you can measure it

6) Could be, or change the measuring system, it could be anything really, use your brain.

7) Why or why not? That is it, why or why not! Learning experience for all concerned. Ask a better question, why does anyone take others teaching and not check it out for themselves. To lazy or something?

For this is just my opinion, it just as valid as most Round earth science, I much a problem when you start using the brain you were given. No real explanation of the inconsistent answers to valid question about their science.

You do know they ancients had good measurement? They still use those records you know. All of them were linear measurement and geometry, not round earth. You would have to believe their tells of man in cave as they were building the pyramid if this was the case. They did teach this you know.
Do you believe this was true? Did cave men build the pyramids? Can you fly in a vacuum? If so how? Can you find was way to move in a vacuum? That what was taught, space is a vacuum, now the moon is in our atmosphere, does this fix the vacuum after telling for year and year and more years, that it was a vacuum?

I can believe they fly up there somewhere, not even a problem on a flat or round earth. You know when you say space it every where or anywhere, correct?

The biggest reason to study anything is for you to start to question the truth behind the teaching. Just because they teach it does not mean it correct. It has been taught in type of school books of all kinds, that later proved to be full of lies and misleading science or outright lies about many thing including history.

Say a monkey is not part of the family of man, they are not even DNA close, there are other animal closer to man than a monkey, or ape. Did we come from rat, or cows or dog, no we are a separate group and it special. Above All mankind are special. Animals are special as far as their kind, all other life is special even down to any blade of grass, only the most special is mankind, any and all mankind.

After seeing a lot of things that did not fit what was taught, I blame myself for being naive when I could have done some checking myself instead of just going with the flow. I Never want anyone taking my word for fact, no, study all yourself, try to measure it, or come up with a way of dividing the space around you into what could be a finer way to do so, measurement are pretty much up to what other men put out.

Here is on thing, say the measuring tool the ancients used is an astrolabe, it measures the sun in a type of triangle, and it would not be as high up, as is said that it is now.
They used that astrolabe for every type of thing from compass, measuring where the sun came up and it went down and where it went down, at all times of the year by day, and moon phases and where it was at any day or time of the year, this also was done with the stars. Time was also calculated on this same instrument. Now that has a lot of things for an ancient invention and no batteries, it all told time of day and travel ways and how to find their way home. Neat trick for those ancient cave dwelling, pyramiding, sailing ancients living in a cave. Rubbing two sticks together build a fire, then gathering beans near water, to eat, that what I was taught.

You can forget about the time line of mankind it way to far into the past. They could never have tested by carbon dating it they were around fish. Man did live near streams and water, they ate fish, too. Haven't you noticed man does live near water, as in we need water, there is food from the water.

You have to admit that those cave dwelling men were quit a miracle being able to do all that building, making all kind of things, from a cave. I am having some fun with this one.

I do not know how long man has been on earth, neither do they know, no way of truly knowing, we do know from the records of thing they found if they were telling the truth. They said they found items before the flood a list of kings not on Adam or from Adams family, it was another list, see the Adam and Eve was in a place God put them, then the others were out in the world, That was said from their list to be around 360 thousand years. Then Adams family, one of the sons went out there where these men lived, then after many generation the other part of Adam's family joined them.

Then some other group not of mankind or of mankind flesh came along. They were some kind of watcher said, to have been here to watch over man, not cause problems for man. Well, that was not good enough for some of them. I won't go into that, flood story is know in all of mankind even if they were living in wide parts of the world. Needless to say something to do with a large flood with a boat happened.

Do I know for sure, no, not about this, It does have some proof though, you have to put some weigh to it.

This is the way to learn, how much weigh is there for most thing we think we know or were taught?

The best is, try to prove what they said was true if it is not factual out it goes. If something is a theory, say it not fact, do not teach it as fact, which is still being done, teaching Theory as facts, bad form you know, not good.

I am lecturing now I guess, maybe not, I just saying, you have a brain, you have eyes and ears, hopefully all the parts to your body, use them to learn experience it yourself, be amazed and things that were see, and feel. I sure wish the light were less at night so you can see things in the night sky so much bigger than want is seen by most people in lighted areas. You see the night sky nowadays is like looking through the wrong end of a telescope making it tiny looking. It beautiful at night, with a large full moon so big you feel you can almost touch it, and the other night went the moon is dark, the stars are so bright and put on a show for you. I a wonder to behold.

Further more, if the earth was flat the eco system would not work with efficiency, there would be no polar ice and there would be no atmospheric vacuum.
Light would be evenly distributed across the world and time zones would not exist on the lateral, weather would be erratic and unstable naturally. Geocentricity of a disc would be unstable and gravity too powerful for life balance and seasons would not exist.
There is so much not considered properly with flat earthers which was proven to be spherical long, long ago. It seems you people need attention is that this is, you are lonely and need to prove your theories for attention because you cannot really believe it yet remain credible.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75393857


Agree with most of this...though polar ice caps didn't always exist.

But yes, very little explanation is given for change of the seasons, day-and-night, varying duration of sunlight throughout the year, and even time zones with the flat earth models.

Waffle on, Bobo, stop the fallacy notebook bullshit this is not a controlled debate and again it is not an ad-hom if it is true.

Ad hominem noted.

You believe the word of men against all your senses and act as if you know it all, actions of a clown (someone who acts intentionally silly for the benefit of an audience).
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77447814


Strawman fallacy. You have no idea what I believe, and you have no interest in how I've drawn my conclusions.

So, I asked you to be intellectually honest and confirm you "know" you live on a spinning ball? Instead you fail and try to just turn it on it's head.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77447814


I gave you several reasons, which you (gasp) handwave away. Exactly as expected.

I am offering you nothing...
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77447814


You can say that, again.

...and selling you no ideas I have nothing to prove and the burden of proof comes with those making a claim.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77447814


You are doing both. You are making the claim the world is flat. I have disagreed, both citing sources you reject out of hand, citing observations you can make yourself, first hand experiences I have had, and asking for what specific evidence can change your mind. There apparently is no such evidence, so I have concluded that your position is irrational on its face.

I've told you before I can fly....you believe this?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77447814


Strawman noted. Other than demonstrating you intellectual dishonesty.

I can get pictures and video but just not show this in the real life.....you believe this? At what point can you believe this....maybe when you see it for yourself. Someone making outrageous claims should be asked for specifics.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77447814


Great! What specific evidence would allow you to conclude that the Earth is globular?

Nothing could sell me an idea without a tangible measurement. All I have asked for is tangible measurement...
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77447814


This point I addressed citing the measurements between various Southern-Hemisphere distances between different cities on different continents. Those distances are flown non-stop, daily, by Qantas airlines. Those distance *cannot* be true on a flat Earth.

Another tangible measurement is with Southern Constellations.

Another tangible measurement is the Earth's shadow on the Moon during an eclipse.

Another tangible consequence -- that the Earth cannot be modeled accurately on a flat map. Distortions in distance *must* occur on any flat surface. Why would that be, if the Earth itself was flat?

Another tangible consequence - the laser experiment I linked to earlier which you (gasp) ignored and handwaved away.

You will, of course, handwave away these and other tangible measurements. It's what you do. It's also the reason why you will never give a concrete experiment or observation by which your mind may be changed.

I certainly do not think your claim to have seen the curvature of the earth first hand is meaningful nor true.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77447814


How unexpected.

I look forward to your parroted response and intellectual dishonesty Bobo. Really go for it!!! Don't forget to wear funny clothes, big shoes, paint yer face and make people laugh by performing some hilarious tricks while you behave in such a silly way.

Re: Globe Earth debunked
One last simple question for the Flat Earthers to ponder...

How do you know the edge of flat earth is round like a globe?

Prove the earth isn't a square?

Really? I know a couple of people who have gone with ANSMET. No military escort required.



Oh, I see. You're just parroting more flatty bullshit you heard on YouTube. Got it....
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 74770227


So they went with the national science foundation. To study meteorite activity. You are missing the point. Do you know what unescorted means? No one mentioned flat or youtube but you.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75473435


You said military escort. Is that the sound of moving goalposts I hear?
 Quoting: Dr. Deplorable Astromut


No need to move the goal posts. The operative term is escort. Military or otherwise doesn't really matter.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75473435

It does matter. That was your original claim, which has been refuted.
Let's get back to Antarctica. Someone please explain why we aren't allowed to go there without a military escort. Bullshit answers not welcome.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75473435

Quoted for truth. Not going to let you back out of it.

No need to move the goal posts. The operative term is escort. Military or otherwise doesn't really matter. The point is that Antarctica is restricted, guarded and monitored, and remember, we are referring to an entire continent. For any newbies to this subject, check out operation highjump, admiral byrd, and worlds beyond the poles. More entertaining than game of thrones.

Re: Globe Earth debunked
I think the key reason so many people refuse to even look into flat earth is fear.
If there is a creator, if this life had meaning, that someone might be judging, is terrifying to the nihlistic we're a speck of a speck on a speck flying in nothing at a bazillion googles an hour people.
