The Spanish and Portuguese explorers proved the world was round by sailing around it. They did not sail off the edge of it. I can get in a plane and fly from NYC all the way around the world back to NYC. I don't fall off the earth. When you look at the Sun, Moon and all the other planets, they are round. Why would the earth be any different.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 72727002 The Flat Earthers say it is round but flat, with North in the middle, so if you sail East for example, you will go all the way around and return to your starting place. They believe the Earth is unique among planets, being either create by God or by aliens as some kind of zoo. Some Flat Earthers believe that are other Earth-like "ponds" on the great ice plane, so that thousands of miles away (that is, thousands of miles away from the ice wall that you call Antarctica), there are other continents that the elite don't want you to know about. They can't even agree amongst themselves. There are some that claim it is flat with the South pole at the center (to solve the southern hemisphere navigation problems but push the problem to the North which they promptly ignore), others that claim there are both North and South center areas with some kind of aether teleportation from one to the other at the equator. I've also seen a highly distorted map with both North and South poles with a highly distorted Pacific ocean they call the bipolar map. Last I've seen is a claim that it is flat with North in the center but somehow non-euclidean so all measurements make it look round.
