    We know the Earth is flat because the Bible tells us so. But for those of you skeptical, close-minded types that flat out refuse to accept the overwhelming Biblical evidence, I have designed some experiments you can do at home that will show you, before your very eyes, that the world is indeed flat, and not spherical as some crazy scientists proclaim. It's amazing how many people blindly believe in a spherical Earth, without ever having seen it for themselves! I intend to change that.


    1) Jump!

    Now, scientists claim that Earth is spherical and rotating at a speed of between 700-1000 miles per hour, depending on your latitude. This is a very high rate of speed. You can disprove this nonsense by simply jumping up as high as you can. Really, it's that simple. What happens when you jump? You come straight down to where you were. But, if the Earth were indeed spinning at such a fast speed, wouldn't you land hundreds of feet away?

    If you were to stand in the flat bed of a truck going 75 mph, and jump straight up, what would happen? You wouldn't fall straight down. You would fall out of the truck. That's because trucks move, the Earth doesn't. This experiment proves the Earth is fixed in space and doesn't move.


    2) Blow!
    Since if the Earth is supposedly a sphere, it naturally comes to assume what would happen to people below the equator, like in Australia? Since they are underneath the sphere, wouldn't they fall off? This is where scientists come up with mumbo-jumbo like "gravity" and "centrifugal force" to explain away their theories. So, the scientists want you to think that because the earth is so much more massive than people or things, that people will naturally "stick" to the bottom of the earth because of gravity.

    This can be disproved very simply. Get a balloon and inflate it as big as possible. It will be a spherical shape. Now, take a piece of paper and try to rip, tear, or cut the tiniest speck of paper possible. This paper represents a human being, much smaller in mass to the balloon, which represents the Earth. Now try and place the small piece of paper to the underside of the balloon. What happens? It falls off!

    That's right. Even though the balloon is so much bigger in mass, it cannot hold the tiny paper. So if the Earth was a sphere, no one could live below the equator because they would fall off.


    3) Get High!
    Ok, this one you really can't do at home, but you can do it out in the world. Stand on the ground and look around you. What's the farthest you can see? Maybe it's a building, tree, or mountain. Now, find some place very close to it where you can get a much higher vantage point. (This also works if you're on a jet and about to take off.) Notice how in the higher place you can see much farther? You can see more of the world the higher you get. This shows the world is flat because the higher you go, the easier it is to see over obstacles. At the same time, it shows the world cannot be spherical. Because if the world was curved, the far distance would forever remain out of view because of the Earth's curvature. It would eternally be over the horizon.

    If the Earth was a sphere, it would not matter how high you went, you would still see the same thing. Since this is not the case, the Earth is flat.


    These experiments are all confirmed by creation scientists as being 100% accurate. If you're skeptical of the flat Earth, why don't you do these experiments so you can see truth with your own eyes.

    I'm going to say that this is an extreme troll.

    But in case it isn't, you are aware that the earth has an atmosphere right? And you do realise that a balloon is far too small to create enough gravitational pull to attract anything visible towards it? And you do realise that we have pictures of the earth? And if the earth is flat, why is the moon round? And the sun?

    If God created Adam and Eve as a white man and woman, how did niggers get here?

    And I'm sure you get this all the time but if God is benevolent, Omniscient and Omnipotent how come there is so much unnecessary evil in the world? And why are people even here? If he loves so much why can't he just put us in heaven from the start?

    Religion makes no fucking sense there are so many questions that you can't answer but you try to answer with metaphorical nonsense and you always pull out the "faith" card, yet scientists get questions and then they actually try to prove it/disprove it. You look at Norse mythology and you think it's really interesting but nonetheless it's obviously not true and it's all a bit of a ridiculous concept to take seriously, but back then, that "mythology" is what they used to believe in as their religion, and that's all religion is today, it's mythology.

    Hey, if the earth is flat, how do you explain night and day? If the earth was flat it would be day for everyone all the time, but we know for a fact that if it's daytime here it's night time on the opposite side of the earth. If the earth is flat how come no-one has looked off the edge? People have travelled the entire earth before and never got to the edge...

    This was definitely a troll, no-one can be that retarded.

        I seriously can't believe there's people who believe the earth is flat...

        That's just sad.

          I would like to apologise for my racist remark, I have grown up around African-American people and been surrounded with them my whole life, a lot of my very good friends are of African decent and they have no issue with me using the "N word" when referring to them, because I do not do it in a derogatory sense. I seem to have let that become a part of my every-day vocabulary and allowed it to carry over to this website, once again I apologise and hope that you can look past that slight slip-up and reply to my previous statement regardless.

            You're fucking retarded. He didn't say the only way for there to be solar panels is for them to be in "wing" form, he said that's what those particular wings were for.

            As darrenmckenzie said, the solar panels on the second satellite are wrapped around it.

              I second this. The reason the satellites have solar panels that appear to look like wings (Note they aren't technically wings because they aren't used for flight) is because they cover a large surface area, and the more surface area covered by solar panels the more light is going to be absorbed thus more energy produced.

              Unless of course you see Surface Area, Light and Energy as a "cop-out" as well, in that case all hope is lost.

                In your diagram you show the apparently "disc-shaped" Earth, containing only the continent of Africa. Where, then, is the rest of the Earth? It surely can't be on the bottom!

                  1) Inertia keeps you in place. An object in motion tends to stay in motion unless acted on by another force, an object at rest tends to say at rest unless acted on by another force. When you go outside (or stay in your house, it does not matter) and jump, you say in the same place because there is no force to offset the force that the earth's rotation exerts on you. In simpler terms, if you're moving at 100 mph (an arbitrary number, I'm aware that's not how fast the earth rotates) due to the rotation of the earth and you jump, you will continue to move at 100 mph while you're in the air because there is no force to stop you from being in motion.

                  This does not work in a flatbed truck because wind is acting against you. Say the truck is moving at 75 mph. If you jump any considerable distance in the air, you'll almost certainly fall out. This is because the air is not being moved by the truck, and therefore acting against you as a force to stop your motion (relative to the earth, that its).



                  2) Why do you say people would fall off the earth if it was round? If gravity is simply 'mumbo-jumbo', what would make someone fall off southern hemisphere? Or, what makes water run downhill? Or what even keeps us on the ground? If it's not gravity, what is it?



                  3) This is because the earth is so massive, the curvature is difficult to see without being extremely high in the air. A better way to prove the roundness of the earth is watching a boat sail away from you. Watch it go into the distance. You may need binoculars or a telescopic device of some sort for this. Watch as it goes away, it will disappear below the horizon. If the earth were flat, couldn't you just keep increasing your magnification to see the boat reach its destination?

                    I see a lot of mealy-mouthed know-it-alls spouting off the kind of secular garbage they teach at public schools, but I'm not seeing anyone cite the only book that matters.

                    How can you expect us to take anything you say seriously when you don't back up your statements with Scripture? Instead, you are just making fools out of yourselves.

                    II Thessalonians 1:7-9
                    And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels,
                    In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:
                    Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power



                    The man who is being progressively sanctified will inescapably sanctify his home, school, politics, economics, science, and all things else by understanding and interpreting all things in terms of the Word of God and by bringing all things under the Dominion of Christ the King. -R.J. Rushdoony

                      Even according to the "globe theory" if you walked a straight line, you'd end up somewhere out in space. If you followed a compass or a GPS and walked due East/West whichever, then you would still do a gradual circle being the same distance from the north pole at the center.

                      Also, if the world is flat, that means that there is an end. There would be a cliff looking out into space. There is no cliff looking into space. The world is not flat.

                        This is a fraction of a message I just received explaining my recent infraction:

                        "First of all, I did not see one verse of Scripture cited for the so-called "facts" in your post."

                        Well let me just say, the reason there was no verses of Scripture is because the bible is even less believable than the Qu'ran - which in my honest opinion is a much better read due to it's beautiful imagery and the story it tells, whereas the bible just tells you that everything you are doing is wrong and that Jesus is a zombie. But, just to make you happy here is some verses of Scripture to back up my evidence:

                        Rick, 25:17 - ..and thou shallt never be given up nor tossed aside, never be let down and never have thy lord abandon thou and leaveth thou deserted.

                          For centuries, rational people have known that the Earth is round! Anyone that *actually* believes the Earth is flat, deserves to be slapped in the face and jailed for Stupidity in the 1st Degree!

                          "Eternal Salvation" does not justify living a life of willful ignorance! Wake up, it's the 21st century. The Earth is round, deal with it.
