According to whom?

Because the Bible says it's flat (how else could it have four corners? Isaiah 11:12, Revelation 7:1), and the science says that the Earth is an imperfect oblate spheroid.

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

The Earth is an oblate spheroid. It is not a cube, pyramid, or even freaking flat.

It also can't be hollow, or else the magnetic field of the earth will be lost and we'd get rekt by solar rays.

How do we know this? Gravity pushes the stuff of the Earth into a sphere. The earth's gravity is too strong to let you fly off just by jumping. The earth's rotation makes it an oblate spheroid instead of a sphere.

Also, if you go off longitude 180, you don't fall off the Earth.

The four corners would be the north pole, the south pole, the intersection of the equator and the prime meridian, and the intersection of the equator and longitude 180.

Also, here's a video of why the Earth is not flat.

Wait, what? I thought spheres did not have corners, that they were, you know, rounded?



Besides, aren't the longitude divisions a bit too random/arbitrary (in other words: made up) to be considered "corners" of anything?

Yeah, but your God said there were four corners.

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

Oh dear. Yes, He did say that, which means that earth is flat, because there are no corners on a sphere. Duh!

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

Why don't these heathens realise that God can make a circle with corners if He wants to. He's God.

God doesn't have to limit himself to three dimensions.

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

God doesn't have to limit himself to three dimensions.

Where are you getting this information from about God?

God quite clearly thought that a flat earth with a firmament to separate the waters above the firmament from the waters below the firmament was the way to make the Earth. He also thought that putting stars and the moon and sun as lights in the sky was the right thing to do. This is why He tells us all about this in the Bible.

Why you would choose to make stuff up that contradicts this is inexplicable unless you are working for the forces of darkness.

False

Not hollow. Very good. There may be hope for you yet.

Stuff and nonsense. Gravity is a secularist word to explain Divine Pulling. Thinking they can remove God from the equation, secularists dupe the sinful and feeble minded into believing everything is squashed together because that's what happens in space - things like rocks and dirt and trees flying around are somehow attracted to each other and compress. Even my young children know how absurd this is. As I teach my children to think critically (not what to think, but how to think), we put these claims to the test. For science, we pour a little pile of baby powder in the palms of our hands and blow. Unsurprisingly, no little planets or even floating spheres are created. You won't get this kind of comprehensive, objective science in school. Thank God (literally) for home education.

Also, if you go off longitude 180, you don't fall off the Earth.

The four corners would be the north pole, the south pole, the intersection of the equator and the prime meridian, and the intersection of the equator and longitude 180.

Latitude and Longitude are man made concepts. You might as well divide the earth up in pizza pie shape, or puzzle pieces shape, or in the image of a giant stained-glass window for the Sweet Redeemer Jesus to see from His throne on high. No one will fall off anything unless the LORD Himself decides it will be so (Lamentations 3:37).

The thing is, God didn't consult you In The Beginning, and you have no authority to question His Infinite Wisdom. As He told Job (you remember, the guy who was lovingly chosen to play the part of the pawn between God and Lucifer to see how devoted God's people are to Him):

Who do you think you are to question an Omnipotent God? What kind of hubris do you possess to think you know better?

Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth?
declare, if thou hast understanding.

Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest?
or who hath stretched the line upon it?

Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened?
or who laid the corner stone thereof;

When the morning stars sang together,
and all the sons of God shouted for joy?

Job 38:4-7

And here's a video showing even an negro can grasp the fact the earth is flat.

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

I was in one of the kitchens this morning, and I decided to conduct an experiment. Using the round earth hypothesis, I took an orange and an oyster cracker. I sat the orange on the counter, placed the cracker atop it, and spun the orange.

Imagine my lack of surprise when the oyster cracker flew right off. See, this wild 'round spinning earth' hypothesis can't withstand even the most rudimentary of experiments. Next I placed the orange in the microwave. Within mere minutes it ruptured and left a sticky mess for the second floor maids to clean up.

Why would I do this, you ask? Because the cult of scientism also claims that the earth revolves around a ball of flaming radiation, but if the sun were really radioactive, the earth would explode just like the orange did.

There are pictures of Earth from Space showing that it isn't flat.

There is photographic evidence of the Earth being round.

Here is one of such pictures:



See the curve? ROUND. Not flat.

Here I present photographic evidence of the fictional Moon Pandora that is also "round". In addition, this computer-generated image is of much better quality and more interesting than your attempt.

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

I'd also like to point out the Earth is 4.54 billion years old, not 6000. Also, the Sun is around 5 billion years old and not 3 days younger than the Earth.

Also, doesn't the Sun need to be there for night and day to exist (and the Earth not be tidally locked)?

Here are a list of things the Earth isn't:

Flat
6000 years old
Hollow
Cube-shaped
Separate from Space (there is an atmosphere that makes it not space though)
Created purely by God-power (there was matter that clumped into a solar system)
Held up by a turtle
Being invaded by UFOs
A hologram
Being plunged into darkness
In the Realm of the Faerie
Destroyed by 2012
