Re: The Round Earth Conspiracy

Earth is spherical. And there is much proof of that; of which I have experience myself.

For instance if the earth was flat, regardless if it were the center of the universe, everyone would experience the same day and night. Take a lamp and rotate it around a dinner plate and see if you can replicate this well known fact of different time zones.

Not true, friend. The Sun functions like a flashlight, pivoting so that its rays move across the time zones in order. If this were not so, then the Bible would not be the perfect word of the creator of the universe. You do understand that a belief in the Bible is not compatible with a belief in a spherical Earth, don't you? Don't tell me you didn't skim the thread at least.

Matthew 4:8 tells us that Christ and Satan went up a mountain in order to see all of the kingdoms of the world. Why would they do this if they could not in fact see all of the kingdoms of the world from a mountain top? Wouldn't that make them idiots?

Re: The Round Earth Conspiracy

What?? That's rediculous. Is that like a beam or like a flashlight. And does this "flashlight" automatically start at the beginning of its pivot once it reaches the end? Otherwise there would be a period of darkness for the same amount of time that light had existed on any parts of the Earth (if not more being on a pivot of course.). Try that on a plate as well. Unless your saying that the Earth is like an annulus LOL.

I am aware of the bible statin that the Earth was flat, which has been proven wrong time and time again, before modern science.

So you believe the Bible is not the Word of God? You also claim to not be an atheist. But if you don't believe the Bible is God's Word, how can I trust you to obey its doctrine of truthfulness? Should I just take the word of a man who has rejected the source of all just laws like some cheap dime store pulp fiction?

This so called "proof" is just circumstantial and falsified evidence that is only approved by other Round Earth scientists. The only proof I need is written in the holy Bible.

Just for the sake of argument though, I've include scientific evidence that shows the world is flat. I notice how you didn't (or can't) come up with an answer that refutes my scientific evidence, and instead tried to make up other weird rationalizations such as how different locations on Earth have different time zones(which was easily refuted by Billy Bob Jenkins). It is people like you who blindly accept whatever science tells them without applying any sort of thought process of your own that causes the further propagation of myths such as the one about a Round Earth or evolution.

The definition of a pivot is where it would act as a swing. Either it would go back and forth about its pivot, which time zones don't do, or it would have to wrap around which would leave the whole world in darkness for a while. Which is it? No evidence of a flat earth has been presented to me??

An annulus is a geometric shape, you may call it a doughnut or a ring.

I believe you have already been warned on your use of the word "annulus". The last thing you should be doing now is describing its shape.

Neither the sun or the Earth need to go back in forth of swing. The sun revolves around the Earth, and the sun just happens to illuminate part of the Earth but not all of it at the same time.

Think of it like a guard with a lantern or a flashlight walking around a large dark room in a circle. At all times some of the room is lit up (the part closest to the guard), and as the guard moves parts of the room that are away from the guard start to fade out and become dark. The sun of course representing the lantern here.

As far as no evidence of a flat Earth being presented to you, there was a lot of evidence right in the opening post. You're a mindless science follower, so perhaps this will get complicated for you, but try to keep up. We are in a forum right now, in that forum, there are "threads". What you are posting on now is actually the third page of that thread, and there were posts made relevant to the thread earlier. Specifically, I'm talking about the first page, where the "opening post" is made. In this post, there was the evidence that I was referring to.

Re: The Round Earth Conspiracy

I can see the moon out of my bedroom window right now. It appears spherical. When I look out at the moon in 1 month it will have rotated but will still appear spherical (I wont see a thin flat disc like the side of a coin). Why is this?

Thank you

It does not appear spherical. The silhouette of the moon is a circle; you cannot see anything as a sphere, you can only identify a sphere by touch. Tactile sensory perception allows you to experience a sphere (tennis ball, or exceptional potato) from multiple sides. Not true with sight, which presents everything in 2D. Also, you are mistaken - the moon only has one side, which always remains the same. Sometimes it is light and sometimes it is dark, and sometimes partially so, but the appearance is always the same. The demon worshipping heliocentrists claim that a spherical moon rotates around the Earth and also simultaneously rotates upon its own axis so that the same face of that sphere always faces the Earth. This is clearly ridiculous! Obviously a flat disc facing the Earth is a much more viable explanation. Even the heathen principle of Ockham's razor supports it!

The pivot reference came from one of your own followers saying that is how the sun acts. This came about when I challenged him to take a light and revolve it around a plate, the lift would not act as with our time zones.

I believe I just caught you guys in your own contradictory acts, hahahahaha.

Yes, I have updated my profile picture to show how excited I was to obey God's Word as a child. Homeschooling has taught me important values that help me remain true in a misleading world.

Jesus is the Light - John 8:12. Time zones are a creation of man and another heathen lie. If someone to the East of me was ahead of me in time, then they would be able to telephone me with winning lottery numbers! Not to mention that planes and other forms of transportation would have to be time machines! Clearly these heathen lies do not stand up to experience! Do you not know that the sun, as with all creation, is under the control of the Creator? Joshua 10:13.
