What are YOU talking about... :idunno:

I know you're just being funny... Post Number 2002 (or "5248068" if using the post quoting function). I'd be as out of my mind as he is if I had been" discussing FE nonsense with him for this long (16+ years).

There is no "Flat Earth thinking process" that is not flawed. This is exactly what I tried to convey to Dave in Post 2002, "If you see yourself in a mirror are you seeing you or are you seeing a refracted image of you? Similarly, if you place a mirror in such a way as to see something behind you...

So, according to your "theory" the nature of light and refraction is/was taught incorrectly in 5th grade? The real question is, "Why are you?". ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING you see is "quite clearly" NOT the actual thing. What we "see" is light reflected off of or emitted from/by an object. We never...

How do you understand the phrase, "lifted upward from behind the curvature"? If you see yourself in a mirror are you seeing you or are you seeing a refracted image of you? Similarly, if you place a mirror in such a way as to see something behind you that you cannot see directly (akin to...

And here you go again, ignoring responses by me and other posters as if your "contradiction" was never addressed. If you're going to have a "debate" at least do so honestly. Supra? Do you even know what the word means in context as I've used it twice previously (that was a hint to its meaning...

"Proofs", as used in mathematics, ARE explanations. How would you expect to understand a complex proof (concept) unless someone explained it to you? YOU have a contradiction YOU cannot rationalize with FE. The "contradiction" has been explained (proved) to you numerous times; it is even...

Well, that's because it is. If you had actually done what you say you would have learned in your "research" mirages are caused by the refraction of light. You're either a liar or lack the cognitive ability to understand FE is just a version of "the big lie" you've been gullible enough to have...

Exactly!

That you don't know it's not testifies to your (total) lack of critical thinking skill(s). Cognitive Dissonance and Dunning-Kruger Effect are two reasons you take offense where none exists.

I found your problem. Cognitive Dissonance Dunning-Kruger Effect

You can't even get the north-south-east-west orientation of the beach right. Give time indexes from the video for your assertion(s). I don't see it and I doubt anyone else does either.

It's a beautiful beach. Have you ever been there? Actually, the water, as seen from the beach, is toward the south-south-east (170 degrees). Well, that depends on what time of year/day one is viewing the shadows (when the video was made). It appears, from what I saw, the video was made somewhat...

Removing all doubt again, Dave?

On further reflection, since you claim to not be "weak minded", you must consider yourself to be "intelligent". This got me to thinking. If Dave is as intelligent as he claims/thinks himself to be, how could he be swayed by "flat Earth" videos? Intelligent people shouldn't fall for such...

Then you should have thought longer before posting: It's always nice to see a working example of The Dunning-Kruger Effect. Perhaps you know this one... Once upon a time, there lived six blind men in a village... Confirmation bias? Also see The Dunning-Kruger Effect...

Don't bother with astronomy. It makes no sense to Dave and he's not interested in learning anything about it for fear of shattering the glass sphere (irony?) he has constructed to protect his flat Earth fantasy.

... with extra cheese.

Flat Earth videos aren't poorly done or faked but NASA's are. Humm... Irony is another word Dave doesn't understand. ... what Chair said.

Wait for it... Wait for it... Too late. :sigh:
