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

Anyone can write a book, claim it to be the word of God and then have some people claim it to be just that because the book says so. Its a self reciprocating loop. The bible promotes intolerance, rape, sexism, violence, slavery, child abuse etc. etc. It is also absolutely full of contradictions and goes against everything we know from scientiific observation. There is as much proof that the bible is divine that Lord of the Rings is divine.

Yes, but this time God wrote it.

Hmm I think God would write a much better piece of literature than the bible, read what was said again. We cannot prove that God wrote it, men wrote it.

If you are so keen on proofs, give me proof that God did not wrote it, give me the name of the writer, place and time of writing and method how you made sure that those people were not moved by the Holy Ghost as bible says.

Go on.

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

Read the post again -.- All historical and archaeological evidence points to man writing it. It is too full of injustices, cruelty and contradictions. There is proof that man wrote it and not 'insired' by God. There is as much proof for God writing the bible as their is proof for a purple spaghetti monster -.-

Then is should not be too difficult for you to provide the evidence I asked.

Give me proof that God did not wrote it, give me the name of the writer, place and time of writing and method how you made sure that those people were not moved by the Holy Ghost as bible says.

Any time now.

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

This is what I love about you type of people, circular logic. If you cant prove something wrong then it must be true. Prove Charlie and the Chocolate Factory wasnt written by god, can you?
The pentateuch for example, the writing style is different throughout suggesting multiple authors, cross examinations of the texts also show that they were written over a number of centuries. This is the most basic of evidence, for more http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Documentary_hypothesis

And since the bible is full of contradictions, cruelty etc. etc. disproven scientific principles etc. etc. you get what i mean

Friend, everyone knows God did not 'write' the Bible. It is a collection of anecdotes by His disciples along with notations provided the Holy Ghost writers.
No one in their right minds thinks that God sat down in His study and penned the Bible. That is absurd! He was too busy Creating everything and managing us.

See, you avoid the truth and go around in circles. I misuses a word and you misinterpreted it so you focus on that instead of the argumentput forth. It would do much for your credibility if you focused on the points i make, so far you havent answered any and avoided truth and reasoning. Prove me wrong on everything I said, have a try

I have tried, over and over to accomodate your addled requests, please show what question I (or another True Christian(tm)) have not painstakingly sweated over, providing a Biblically correct answer. We are trying to understand you but your clouded ability to communicate rationally is muddled at best.

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

Okay, you seem to think there is some magic force that pulls everything down, this is not what scientists call gravity. Gravity is the theory that massively large objects pull smaller objects towards them, no this wont work for a tennis ball and a grain of rice as the distortion from the massive force of the earth is too great and will always overpower it. Gravity pulls to the centre of the earth (not the equator). You seem to think that gravity pulls down, it doesnt, there is nothing way way way down that causes this pull, there is cause and effect, ALWAYS. Centripetal force and inertia explain why we dont get hrown backwards or forward when we jump, the earth and we with it travel at the same speed, if the earth were to suddenly speed up, the acceleration or g-force would cause us to fly backwards. If you were to flick a coin in a car, it wouldnt fly backwards. If the earth was flat, explain the magnetic north and south poles? you can't. Can you explain how you can circumnavigate the world travelling in one direction? No. Can you explain how satellites can be sent into orbit without falling back down? No. Can you explain timezones? No. Gravity is created by massive, massive, massive amounts of matter, a tennis ball and a grain of sand are absolutely miniscule comparitive the sive of the earth. Go ahead, try and prove me wrong, what degrees do you have in Physics, Astrophysics, Geology, Mathematics etc. etc. None? Oh too bad, wait, you say you have the Bible? A collection of books written thousands of years ago? Written in ancient Greek and Hebrew and translated, undoubtedly corrupted and changed over time? And you believe the literal english translation of it? Even though there is no proof that this book is the true word of God? And the only proof is that the Bible tells you so? You really have got me here, I have absolutely nothing to counter you with
Wait, critical reasoning, logic and love? Yes, I do now have something! interesting huh?

Thats for you aaaaand this

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

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.

Yours in Christ,

So you admit that you BELIEVE that bible was not written by God. You are free to believe so and end up in hell with that belief. You cannot prove it even to yourself that without a shadow of a doubt bible was not written by God. Remember that next time.

You are welcome.
