Re: Give me your ONE BEST evidence for why the Earth is a sphere.
I have a medical condition

I can feel the rotation

it's only evident some times not constantly
I have a delay between certain synaptic connections

some visual
some related to balance

eg.
when I drive
the curved lines on the road do not appear to me as a single curvature

I see a series of dropping curves due to the delay

as I go around the corner the line looks like a series of falling curves
...)

)
rather than one continuous curve

certain times of the day I can feel the rotation
and must get up and move around to reset the inner ear communication with the brian

ahhh

You have a medical condition, enough said. I got really drunk once and thought that I could feel the earth spinning but it was just my medical condition/drunkenness.

I actually thought I was going to fall off the earth.

Because railroad engineers have a special calculation for accounting for the curvature.

Also, lighthouses cannot be seen more than a few miles away.

Lastly, pilots have to account for curvature as well.

Re: Give me your ONE BEST evidence for why the Earth is a sphere.
As you sail south the North star (Polaris) gets lower and lower in the sky. When you cross the equator it's no longer visible. The constellations visible in the northern hemisphere also disappear and constellations not visible farther north are seen.

1) You cannot see the stars from the northern hemisphere that we do in the southern hemisphere and vice versa.

2) The sun shines 24/7 at the south pole in summer. Impossible for a flat earth, as the sun would have to shine all around the so called ice wall that surround the earth.

3) The moon that you see in the northern hemisphere, is always upside down to the moon we see in the southern hemisphere.

4)Photos taken of the sky at the northern hemisphere proves a pole, the north star.

Same at the south pole.

Proves 2 poles = axis = round

Throw some liquid in the air and pay close attention to the shape it naturally forms as it floats through the air.

Do you see spheres? Because you should see spheres. Repeat this hands on experience until you come your fucking senses OR do not breed.

Thank you

Round Earth is Flat Earth seen through a fish eye lens while it rotates underneath. The top of the lens is the center of Flat Earth (the center of the former Hyperborea which was eroded away during the Mudflood) while "Antarctica" at the bottom is the ice wall.

Round Earth was bullshit designed by TPTB to cut you off from the other realms where there's similar flat Earths with different continents such as Atlantis which is "South" or "under" the Atlantic Ocean, Lemuria which is "South" or "under" the Pacific and Mu which is "South" or "under" the Indian Ocean, all of which are beyond the Antarctic ice wall.

Because the further north or south you go from the equator , the more the arc moves from the center of the sky to only arcing over a small quadrant above the horizon .

Notice I said arc.

Re: Give me your ONE BEST evidence for why the Earth is a sphere.
Flat earth has some compelling evidence.

However, there are 2 pieces I've not yet been able to answer to solidify the theory:

1 - All the other planets are round/spherical.
2 - There's no good model to explain how solar/lunar eclipses work and how it's seen by different people.

Because of those two, I'm still in the "Globe Corner" :)

The "Sun" travels in a circular path under the dome. This "circular path" gradually wobbles away from and toward the central axis extending from the Flat Earth's center (North Pole) to the top of the dome. This wobble creates the "seasons" and the illusion that the path of the sun rises during the Summer months and creates long days and drops during the Winter months and creates short days.

Remember the ice bucket test?

That was a psyop to gather data on how many people would be gullible enough to douse themselves in freezing cold water.

Flat earth is another , to gather data on the percentage of people that could be convinced the earth was flat.

Guinea pigs

Data mining to test how susceptible people are to persuasion .

Re: Give me your ONE BEST evidence for why the Earth is a sphere.
The best evidence can be gleaned from a simple purchase of an amateur telescope. I have one and every planetoid I look at is a sphere. I can see Saturn and its rings guess what a sphere. I can see mars sphere Mercury another sphere, the moon Jupiter and these are all seen with your very own little eyes no conspiracy about what you can view with you own god given eyes.
