Of COURSE the Earth isn't flat!

It USED to be flat until the Great Flood. Then it absorbed so much water it fluffed up like a giant sponge and now we have the Earth as it is today!

Re: What can you do if your daughter refuses to marry her rapist?

That's what I've been telling religious fanatics for a long time. I've had no luck.

Okay, so basically your whole argument is "you are wrong, I am right".

Can you at least understand WHY this doesn't get you far in rational debate?

You could use your line of reasoning to "justify" any absurd point of view. In the end, all you did was type words, but they are words without weight.

It's a pity this isn't in the Holy Bible so we have to speculate about it. Personally I think God changed the shape of the earth to prevent Columbus from falling of and discovering America instead. Which was important because it allowed all Americans to finally go to America.

UNSPOKEN!!!

TO THE UN-SPOKEN: Bro believe me these people are not really all together i argued Marijuana, i argued that Satan isnt the cause of a Orgasm, i even argued that not all Muslim are horrible.. and these people come up with some of the most outrageous claims to be heard in the universe. And ima Christian and what they speak is false.

Re: UNSPOKEN!!!

Let me guess, you "know" that you are right and you "know" that we are wrong, yet you are unable to come up with any rational argument that would substantiate your beliefs.

In the meantime, we come with rational arguments, scientific analysis and plain old common sense.

Who's the fool now, "Hewbre"?

I think you need to start thinking for yourself. Why would you believe something that you haven't seen yourself just because someone wrote down somewhere that it is true?

The hypocrisy on this site is unbelievable.

Example one.... the bible!!!

I think you need to start thinking for YOUR self

People have said a pastor has PROVEN the earth is no more than 500 miles away from the earth. thats one man. i could show you work from hundreds, if not thousands of people who have proven the earth is a lot more than that. its roughly 93,000,000 miles away.

you do realise old man that americans werent americans before they went to (what is now known as) america?

So even some of the TRUE Christians on this forum say the earth is a sphere..... Hmmm maybe biblethumpinblonde and cranky old man are Satan in disguise and their trying to get you!!!

And Hebrew I agree with you.

the earth is a sphere. end of story. it has been proven. some of the items you quote, for example, the earth is flat society, are from the 1800's. back in the 1800's we believed that illness was caused by bile in the body and depending on the colour of the bile would depend on the treatment. that has been WIDELY disproven as has the flat earth theory

Friend,

We state clearly we follow The Bible. How is following The Bible with passages like this;

Isaah 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:

And concluding that we are being told the earth is flat and following threw on is hypocrisy? Hypocrisy is what the false Christians do; read passages like this, ignore the Word of God and then claim to be good Christians.

That's your opinion. But thank you for being so negative

I think you need to start thinking for YOUR selfwhat I want you to think, not the carefully researched positions you hold now.

Fixed that for you.

i could show you work from hundreds, if not thousands of people who have proven the earth is a lot more than that.

Appeal to authority fallacy. I can point you to billions of people who say God exists. Do you believe God exists now? The Truth is not determined democratically, dear.

the earth is a sphere. end of story. it has been proven. ... that has been WIDELY disproven as has the flat earth theory

Your argument seems to consist of repeating endlessly that you are right and we are wrong. That's not very rational, now is it?

I assume you are refering to the distance of the Sun? We don't need hundreds or thousands, can you just give one single shred of proof?

you do realise old man that americans werent americans before they went to (what is now known as) america?

Of course they where Americans. They just didn't call themselves that yet.

So even some of the TRUE Christians on this forum say the earth is a sphere..... Hmmm maybe biblethumpinblonde and cranky old man are Satan in disguise and their trying to get you!!!

We True Christians agree that everything in the Holy Bible is 100% true, no exceptions. But there are also, less important, things which are not in the Bible and sometimes we have different opinions on that. I myself know Earth was flat when it was created, since that is clearly in the Bible, but I also think it is no longer flat. We don't always have to agree on everything, God gave us brains and free will to use them.

Re: Proof: The Earth is Flat! No matter what idiotic scientists c

What an interesting topic! I look forward to reading this thread in its entirety, and hopefully joining in the discussion if you folks don't mind

Both sides (LBC members, and non-members, that is) seem to have well thought out, coherent arguments. I'm very excited to start researching this on my own and learning a little bit in the process.

Cranky, I wanted to applaud you for being so mature with your opinion, stated above. That's a rare quality these days

[EightyEight]

Re: Proof: The Earth is Flat! No matter what idiotic scientists c

Actually, I'm somewhat ashamed to see such hateful, negative remarks from the non-members. Have a little bit of decency, people!

Re: What can you do if your daughter refuses to marry her rapist?

im agnostic. i have have no beliefs.

Umm, please clarify because the no beliefs would be Atheist, Agnostic is believing there is a higher power but you just are not sure what it is.

Of COURSE the Earth isn't flat!

It USED to be flat until the Great Flood. Then it absorbed so much water it fluffed up like a giant sponge and now we have the Earth as it is today!

Ok, I am getting a little mixed up here, after seeing the "globe" thing, and reading the posts I was surprised to see this. So you do you believe that the Earth is actually round now? Or am I just misunderstanding?

But if it IS indeed flat then why do we not have any pictures of the end of the Earth? I can understand you saying that you can't trust scientists but can't some people from the religious community take the time to hop in a plane, fly to the end of the Earth, grab a few pics, and come back with Proof?

Here is proof right here.
