[John F. Smith]

Sure, I've been "around" the world a few times on airliners, and I've read all the astronomy books that show the earth is a round "planet" in the solar system, but can anybody actually prove that the world is round? Before you say, "oh boy he's crazy" read this:

What about the northern and southern hemisphere?

Globularist rot. This implies the Earth being a SPHERE, which it is not. The Earth has, however, an Inner and Outer Ring.

What about photographs of the Earth from the moon?

Most of these are fake. It is well known that the "moon landing" was faked. The film of what is claimed to be the moon was taken in the desert in the US state of Arizona.
There exist some genuine photographs from high altitudes, which appear to the untrained eye to show a spherical Earth. The reason for this effect is that the Earth's atmosphere becomes denser the further one ascends, after thinning out at about 5 miles. This causes light to be refracted more at high altitudes, giving the appearance of a spherical Earth.

If large amounts of water disappear off the edge, where does all the water come from?

This is an argument for the theory that the Earth has a toroidal orbit. In a toroidal orbit, all the water which disappears off the edges falls back to Earth as rain when the Earth revolves about its orbit.

How long is the edge of the Earth?

The edge of the Earth is infinitely long.

Does this mean that the Earth has infinite area?

No, no more than England does. See Benoit Mandelbrot for more information.

20. Does Idaho exist

No. The existence of Idaho is a lie, fabricated by a conspiracy of cartographers, as is England (see question 10).

You know, come to think of it, I've never met someone who claimed to be from Idaho. I've met several from England, Scotland, Ireland, and Australia, though.

admittedly, I go to school in Scotland, but I have to wonder.. does england really exist? could it be a fabrication of dishonest cartographers?

NO NO NO... we all know the earth is a square...

yeah, it is like wrestlers in a squared circle, only different.

Bah, it's an open secret that the "moon" is nothing more than a nuclear-powered enormous balloon, emitting trillions of candela of gun-revealing light. Piloted by key members of the liberal community, the "moon" is strategically moved across the country, pointing out those who dare to make use of their God-given rights at night!

In face of this, it seems only natural to believe that the earth is, in fact, flat.

Well, it's a damned good thing that it isn't made of spare ribs.

The Earth is indeed round, the Moon is flat, and Pluto is a dog.

I always wondered how Pluto manages to survive out there in the vacuum, w/o food and stuff...

moon... everyone knows there is no such thing as the "moon".

It's all swamp gas...

I always wondered why ships went out of view over the horizon. I guess there is an error in proportionality theory, as mathematically speaking, because the earth is flat, they should go out of sight only because they become very small in proportion to the distance from the viewer. Instead, they disappear with a rate of change that is greater than a linear correlation. Therefore, the basis of mathematics as we know it is clearly unfounded! Oh my god, I've been living a lie! What will I tell my students on Monday? Oh the humanity!

[ambush]

Explain how the horizon is visibly curved.

no, those ships were just sinking.

thats cause your eyes are circles.

But they came back too... did they unsink? And would you say the land is sinking when I go out to sea and notice the same phenomenon with the land decreasing at a greater than linear rate? I think your theory has some holes in it my friend. Instead, the earth is clearly flat implies that math is flawed as we know it.

That's enough!

Please re-think before you hit the new thread button

I want the two minutes of my life back that I used to read this thread.

1. those ships were obviously submarines.
2. the sea has waves. the motion of the waves fooled you into thinking the land was decreasing faster than you expected it to.

QED!

I saw in Dichael Doore's movie the reason why the earth was flat. It's a vast plant-wing conspiracy to make the ocean so big only the plant-cons can live. The plant-wing kills children, too! With their greed they took over a tree big enough to take root on the top of the earth, spread its roots to the opposite sides, and use their "leaves" to make the tree lift so hard the roots flattened the earth, and all the vast mammal-wing conspiracy supporters fell off the earth. Then they poisoned it with the excess sugar and CO2 created by their tree. Doore speaks the truth!
