Re: 3 Experiments You Can Do At Home that PROVE THE EARTH IS FLAT

Dear cristiano,

Because i am handsome

God does not really care for those things. He cares about what is in the inside.

"But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart." (1st Samuel 16:7)

Yours in Christ,

Pastor J.C. Manning, M.D., Ph.D.

Re: 3 Experiments You Can Do At Home that PROVE THE EARTH IS FLAT

Now, here's one thing...
The bible condemns Lies. I mean, above all things, lying is pretty bad (Yeah I know, all sins are equal...)
This thread is only propagating a lie. The passages in the bible do not explicitly state a flat world. It describes a circle with corners, to boil it down. If you think about it, the bible describes a globe, and all the verses contained within are merely attempts by people less technologically capable than us to describe what is a globe. The "Ends of the Earth" so described could be the magnetic poles, or the axis, the places where you can go no more south or no more northwards around which the globe spins.
Besides, the universe as it is is a very grand place with the most intricate and beautiful design. It is a design that we cannot completely comprehend even today and surely even much less back in the days the bible was written.
In biblical times, or even a few centuries ago, people didn't have a language to describe the wonders of the universe that clearly were made by the hand of God. Could not Gravity, suns, super novas, black holes, and the deep, powerful workings of the fabric or reality be made by god?
You want creationism? I'd say that world like ours, with some of the most complex and unbelievable mathematical algorithms, like genetics, physics, and chemistry, are results of the most brilliant and most high. Science is not something to be ignored, nor feared.
Maybe you should stop listening to other people. Listen to the love of Jesus. No pastor, no ministry, no man on this world can come close to that.
The world is round. Gravity was made by God because, well, let's face it, God is smart and can make things like this work, and everything in the universe, well... do I need to say it? Just in case. God did that too. Saying that God CAN'T or didn't do that is like denying the greatest masterwork ever created.
Do not lie about the true masterwork of God. Saying the world is flat is like cursing his name.
Felicity told me I am being bad by stating some pretty real facts. Please, for a moment, think critically. I know it's a big post, but for the love of Jesus and all things holy, rethink the wonder of creation and what the bible actually says.
There felicity. Just in case my position was somehow unclear to you, I hope this clears things up.

Re: 3 Experiments You Can Do At Home that PROVE THE EARTH IS FLAT

Look. This is what people who believe that the Earth is flat think the Earth looks like:



It depicts Antarctica as the shape of a circle around the other continents. If Antarctica was a circle around the other continents, it would, at some places, be at the same latitude as places like The United States, or Northern Africa. If this were the case, Antarctica would be hot and and green in those areas, instead of covered with large sheets of ice. Obviously, there are no places on Antarctica like that.

Would you mind proving what you said is correct. We have proved how God made the world is flat, both with and without the Bible.

The only confusion comes from you. Your claims abouts large ice sheets not existing is amazing. Of course they exist. It is only you spherical earthers who think such things are impossible on a flat earth.

You're telling me. This flat earth nonsense is complete idiocy, much like the idea of the Trinity. It isn't mentioned anywhere in the Bible except the King James and the Catholic Bibles, yet they insist on it being real.

Much like there is no way a man got two of every unclean animal on a boat and seven of every clean animal. It's utterly ridiculous, but try explaining that to Bible literalists.

Boy, jealousy is so very unbecoming. Just because Noah had a yacht, is not reason to throw lies about the place. God made the animals get along so they were able to be in close quarters for the 41 days.

Yes! They do exist! That's all Antarctica is! If the Earth was flat, Antarctica would, in some places, be at the same latitude as other continents, and not be completely covered in ice! Antarctica is completely covered in ice, proving the Earth to be spherical.

[/URL]]Your erroneous fantasies almost made me laugh. The Holy Bible, Authorized King James Version of 1611 is the most advanced and accurate science book ever written. Nowhere does it contradict itself and all its contents are supported by strong historical and scientific evidence.

'Nuff said.

Re: 3 Experiments You Can Do At Home that PROVE THE EARTH IS FLAT

Latitude and logitude and temperature only would matter if the Earth were sperical. Being it is flat, they are irrelevant and merely navigational aids. God controls Day, Night, The seasons and the Weather, amoung many other things. I hear in California, you can go snow sking in the morning and swimming in the ocean in the same day, a scant four hour drive. I myself had have been experiencing a balmy 80 degree day only to be in four feet of snow hours later.

Did I say ice sheets do not exist? No. You were they one making outlandish claims they do not exist just because the earth is flat. The earth is flat and Antarctica exists.

You are just trying to deny the earth is flat and using silly arguments from spherical earthers that it is impossible.

'Nuff said. As you would say.

So God controls the weather? Did he create Katrina, Andrew, the 2004 tsunami in Asia, Krakatoa, Mount St. Helens, the Haiti earthquake, and so many other natural weather disasters?

[TheRev]

Re: 3 Experiments You Can Do At Home that PROVE THE EARTH IS FLAT

Would you mind proving what you said is correct. We have proved how God made the world is flat, both with and without the Bible.

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 (Isaiah 40:22)
An ancient attempt at describing a globe with an atmosphere and Ionosphere that protect life from the harsh radiation of the sun (mostly. We do get sunburn once and a while)

Ends of the earth? = North and South Pole, where you can go no further north nor south. Also a metaphor for traveling halfway around the world, which is a long way, OR for traveling to the edge of the Civilized and known world, but not the physical world itself

Four Corners? = 4 Hemisphere Quadrants NW, SW, NE, SE

Also if the earth was flat, Antarctica would indeed have to be where it is on that map above, else all the water would fall off of it.
Antarctica has been traveled across from one side to the other in a straight line, which would be impossible on the flat map.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-11231703

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Antarctic_expeditions

People have traveled everywhere in the world. No one has ever in hundreds of years of exploration, found an edge.

Circumnavigation is possible. You can do it, even going one way from the north pole to the south pole and back to the north pole, all without turning around, which would be impossible on a flat earth

It's not a scientific theory either. It is 100%, irrefutable fact, proven over and over again.
Denying the grandeur of a globe creation and saying God made a pancake is silly and ignorant of the truth and an offense to the almighty. You can believe the world is round and still believe in God and Jesus. In fact, pretty much everyone has for hundreds of years.
If you want to prove me wrong, you can't. There is no way. The bible is at best unclear as to the Flatness of the world, and so saying that the world is a Globe is not contradictory to the teachings within.

Of course God did. Why do think everyone calls them acts of God. Even insurance companies do not make payouts from such disasters and have exclusions for acts God.

Have you ever seen a tropical beach in Antarctica? If the Earth was flat, Antarctica would be full of them.

A circle is is not a sphere. Even people from the past would not call a sphere a circle.

People have been to the edge of the earth and fallen off. Why do think ancient explorers left on their voyages and never came back.

The Bible does say the earth is flat. Just look through this thread for proof.
