Re: Flat Earth? Hell Yes!

So I bet you believe ANYTHING a person in a white lab coat tells you huh, I bet you belief in giant FLYING ANCIENT firebreathing LIZARDS too!!

If the scientists said they existed, Centeniel probably would believe in them, since he doesn't seem to be all that interested in discussing the evidence (or lack thereof) underlying his beliefs. Flying firebreathing lizards? What a ridiculous concept!

Re: Flat Earth? Hell Yes!

How would it be dark if the earth was round friend? Light bends from gravity so the light would bend around a round earth making day all the time.

There isn't a such thing as gravity anyway it is simply not biblical.

First things first -- are you insulting my education? I will have you know that I hold several advanced degrees, and have always been in the top 5 of my classes. I have studied at the best university in the world, and have written countless reports on various topics, always extremely well received. I will kindly ask you not to insult my knowledge and education.

Certainly you ended up back where you started, no one is questioning that (except for me--how can we be sure that you aren't a part of the conspiracy to undermine true science the world around?). It is certainly possible for one to walk unstoppingly and end up at the same location where they started. I don't understand what is so hard with understanding God's Word. He said it, it's true, end of story. Why do you have to look SO HARD to try to find something wrong? Relax, and the ride is so much better!

Re: Flat Earth? Hell Yes!

The roundness of the Earth was not discovered in this century, using strabge gizmos and scientifical gadgets.

It was discovered quite some time ago by Eratostenes of Cirene, using no modern devices but simple logic. In fact this ancient greek estimated the equatorial perimeter of the Earth in 40,000 Km (in 240 B.C. !!!!) using just sticks and ropes, and measuring shadows.

Now we know it's 40,075.

He did a great job, and he didn't wear a white lab coat. He just used that amazing tool called : BRAIN.

Are you willing to trust the words of a paedophile from the heathen land of Greece instead of the everlasting Word of GOD? Well, it's no big surprise, since you seem to enjoy male pornography, according to your avatar, and I wouldn't be surprised if you also enjoyed "playing" with little kids. Are you a Catlick, by any chance? You should use your so called brain into more useful things, like hitting that Glorious PayPal button at the end of the page

Too bad the kilometer wasn't invented yet, Tater.

I've no idea what a "strabge gizmo" is, and I'm not sure I want to know. We don't go in for that sort of thing around these parts . . . This ain't no Brokeback Mountain, son!

Eratosthenes ignored the bending of light by the gravity of the Earth, as do the astronomers today, so it's really no surprise they get the same answer--but that answer was just as wrong 1,800 years ago as it is today.

Creation Scientists tend to favor brain work over experiment and observation, too. Perhaps, if Eratosthenes had lived today, he, too, would have been a True Christian™--provided, of course, that he would have been willing to give up the sodomy.

light can not "bend" it can be reflected.refracted, but it can not bend or curve

Re: Flat Earth? Hell Yes!

Gravity bends light, right? Ask any Physicists this Snotty, they'll confirm this. So if the earth was round the light would just bend around the earth and we would have daylight even in the middle of the night.

well by your logic the gravity from the earth would bend the light so far down the rays would eventually bend so far as to collide with the earth or another object...if you are going to try and argue with logic at least learn some basic reasoning skills retard

Re: Flat Earth? Hell Yes!

I would like to bring to light the verse in the Bivble that disputes alll of your claims that the earth is flat

Isaiah 20:42 It is He who sits above the Circle of the Earht, And its inhabitants are like grasshoppers Who stretches out the heaveans like a curtain, And spreads them out like a TENT to dwell in.

this shows all you claims from from a purely BIBLICAL standpoint, so before you try to prove something from a biblical standpoint try to learn some bible verses please...idiots

Please explain the difference between refraction and curvature. And then provide some proof to back up your statement that light cannot bend. Prof. Einstein said it could, so there's a Nobel Prize in physics waiting for you if you're right.

There are only 6 verses in Isaiah 20 (see it for yourself online here), and not one of them discusses the circle of the Earth or grasshoppers or tents. So before trying to prove something from a Biblical standpoint, try actually reading the Bible. Moron.

oh and he translation there is NKJ

Even that piece of crap translation doesn't have an Isaiah 20:42.

Nevertheless, I am glad that you at least are willing to accept the Bible as evidence; it shows that there may be some hope for you yet. Now, if you were referring to Isaiah 40:22, "It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in," it says circle, not sphere. Circles are flat. So thank you for providing another proof that the Earth is flat.

I believe our anonymous friend was referring to

Isaiah 40:22-23
It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in:
That bringeth the princes to nothing; he maketh the judges of the earth as vanity.

It's understandable that he listed the wrong source and translation; he was probably on a deadline to finish some pornographic drawing of popular cartoon characters.

His focus on two dimensional art maybe excuses his error in thinking that a circle is a sphere. Seeing as how geometry was invented three hundred years before Christ, he's probably even more ignorant of shapes and solids than he is of the Bible.
