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

1. Your understanding of gravity appears weak. The earth is so much more massive than the objects surrounding it that its mass pulls those objects toward its core. The earth weighs approximately 5,973,700,000,000,000,000,000,000 kilograms; the average American weighs about 80. That makes the ratio of the mass of a human to the earth 1:74671250000000000000000.
You're moving at that speed too; you just don't know it. Our system of mph disregards the movement of the earth because it is a given.

No-one know how much the earth weighs. There are no scales big enough to weigh the earth. Imagine how much resources it would take to make such a large scale.

Besides, don't you spherical earthers say in space everything is weightless. So the earth would have no weight.

2. First, this experiment is based on the assumption that gravity is false, which is the absolute wrong way to go about disproving it.

Second, the difference between the mass of a balloon and a scrap of paper is not large enough to attract, even if this experiment were performed in deep space.

Third, it won't prove anything unless in a complete void. The principle of gravity is that small objects will move toward a significantly more massive one. So what's the most massive thing around? Not the balloon; the earth. THAT's why everything falls, because the earth is pulling it towards its core. Like the sun pulls us. This has been proven time and time again and is accepted universally by the world's leading minds. It makes SENSE.

Also I suggest you spend some time in the Southern Hemisphere. It does exist, and people live there, you know--you spend enough time saying God hates it. If it didn't exist God wouldn't hate it.

This whole logic of yours has been explained before. There is no gravity or southern hemisphere. You should go and look at some maps to see how silly this sounds.

As we have explained before, mass does not make any difference. Try doing the experiments with a heavy ball, same results.

3. Because the earth is so large, its curvature is almost imperceptible. If you were to draw, say, a circle around your home, and then only stare at an sixteenth of an inch of it, the line would seem straight. Proportionally, that's about the most of the Earth that can be seen without some serious equipment. No matter how high on the earth's crust you go, you cannot perceive the curve of the earth. However, were you to exit our atmosphere, you would see that the earth is in fact spherical.

True, the earth is very large. I am glad you released the earth is disc shaped so drawing the circle is a good idea.

Gravity exists. Even if the world were flat, what force would be keeping you on the surface? Gravity.

Intelligent pulling.

If this we true, all of us would be pulled up into the sun until we died.

Are you retarded? We never said the nations in the area you call the "Southern Hemisphere" don't exist. We just happen to be intelligent enough to realize, unlike you, that those continents and lying flat besides us, not hanging off the bottom of a ball

Gravity exists. Even if the world were flat, what force would be keeping you on the surface? Gravity.

No - GOD.

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

wow, because it says your a 'true christian' on an internet board means so much lol...i have a name tag from work where they misspelled my name an jemes...so when i wear it does it mean that my name really is 'jemes'?

and pastor...Christ was God...you are not...He was better then all of us...you are not...we are all equal down here...you have no right to call someone trash

Bob, I am disappointed you lied to us. Now we find out your names is 'Jemes'. Somehow, after reading your posts, I am not too surprised to discover this.

Jemes, This is completely incorrect:

...He was better .....

He IS better.

And no, we are not equal, far from it Jemes. Would you say a liar is as good a person as a honest one? Would you say a murdering rapist is as good as a nurturing mother? Would you say a blasphemer who hates God is as good as a sweet and kindly Pastor? No Jemes, we are not all equal. Some of us are superior to the rest of you. With work, you can achieve many great things or you can continue to lie and spread false rumors. Your Choice, Jemes, your choice.

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

Commenting on the opening post, I tried them all out.
When jumping as high as I could, I indeed landed on the spot I jumped off from.
Trying the balloon test together with my children, the paper indeed fell off.
Now what confuses me is the following:
Yesterday I went on a very high building in the morning together with my husband and we were able to look very far indeed, much further than from the ground. But today in the afternoon, we went on a mountain far away from the building and looked around again. Now, we saw the building but we would not see the farmlands somewhere behind it that were originally on the horizon, instead we could see other farmlands on the other side of the mountain near the horizon.
How come?

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

Science time


GET HIGH.. If one is to go high enough, for example when the U2 spyplane first went up the brave pilots could actually see the curvature of the earth.. A rainbow is a sphere, did you know that? Probably not, you have to be high enough to see it!!!! NOT STANDING ON THE ROOF OF YOUR SHACK

JUMPING.. Gravity pulls everything to the centre of the earth.. theres no gravity in space.. why don't we float away?? Please please please look at the moon at night what shape is it? get your telescopes and look for god, should you see saturn jupiter venus mars please tell me what shape they are? or are they just painted on to the sky like a picture on a child's wall? that was sure nice of god..

I cant even remember your third arguement it was so ridiculous, if you want to disprove what other people say then please read both sides, I am a christian man from Ireland.. Roman Catholic.. The actual form of christianity that Jesus Christ himself set in motion and I am a scientist.. It does not say in the bible the world is flat.. Please Please dont tell this stuff to your kids.

Hardly a way to conduct a serious debate then is it?


Also the final E after another vowel should be dropped before adding -MENT suffixes. Thank you.

There's no debate here, a debate is when you will listen to two sides not dismiss a point because your god says so

I don't care about the people posting here, I feel so so sorry for your children in an ever changing world one has to be open minded and they will have that torn away from them

I echo what sister Felicty advises.

There is obviously no one who has taken a scale to weigh the earth... Holy crap, I mean, only the holiest of craps, you are sure blond aren't you.

There is a difference between mass and weight. Weight is the amount of force that gravity exerts on you, given your mass. Mass is just simply the amount of matter that is occupied by an object. The earth has no weight, and but it sure has a mass.

You're clearly not listening to the scale in which the mass has to actually be to make a difference. A "heavy" ball is not heavy in the slightest when comparing the mass of the earth to the mass of a human. As the person you originally quoted gave you a ratio, of the MASS of a person to the MASS of the earth. The ratio of that in comparison to the ratio of a balloon to a piece of paper isn't even CLOSE... For someone who enjoys telling people to read the whole thread, you should learn the actual theories that you're trying to disprove.

May I quickly as what your theories are of man flying into space, and viewing the world as a sphere? Do you believe the whole thing was set up? If so, what is your view of the satellites that supposedly orbit the Earth?

I'm only asking these questions out of curiosity. I'm not trying to prove or disprove anything.

Yes, all hoaxes by NASA to steal our tax money.

If so, what is your view of the satellites that supposedly orbit the Earth?

They use high altitude balloons for those.
