Dave, your deliberate ignorance and fake stupidity is getting tiresome.

I did. What I read is that the ancients abandoned the flat earth idea thousands of years ago- with exception of the Chinese, who abandoned it later. Maybe it is time that you dumped it too? By the way- what was Copernicus' revolutionary astronomical insight?

The idea that the world is flat is actually fairly recent. Do yourself a favor, and read a wikipedia article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myth_of_the_flat_Earth

Dave, Basically that video cheats. He does this "conclusive experiment" with a coin or a light on a flat table, showing how it "sets", just like the sun does on a flat earth. Except it only works if one is looking at the coin from a point below the table. So it could possibly explain a sunset...

What!? Dave- I have seen the sunset. So have you. It doesn't gradually get distant. It sinks below the horizon. It does so if it sets behind a mountain, or if it sets over the sea. That is what it does. Everywhere. Go outside and take look tonight. I even watched a flat earth video...

OK. If this is the case, rather than seeing the sun set over the horizon, I should see it gradually getting more distant and looking smaller. It should never completely disappear. I have watched sunsets. That is not what happens.

Dave, how about if you explain the Flat Earth Model to us in one clear post. Maybe you can clarify a few things: 1. How big is it? 2. Can one see the edge?- if so- where and how? 3. What is under it? 4. What holds it up? 5. Where does the Sun go at night? Thanks, Chair

It is just like the fish in the river. Think about it. It was your analogy.

Yes I have. Chair

The fish doesn't see the water moving. We are the fish.

Um. No. Maybe read up on the topic.

So far there isn't any trail at all as to why quantum physics is wrong.

One step at a time: Why do you think the theory doesn't work? What's the problem with it?

It works. It predicts how things will behave. It is a solid scientific theory.

Quantum Physics works. There is no getting around it- even if it "doesn't make sense".

OK. Let's be specific. Where and when exactly did Israel commit "Genocide"? I will help you. Here is teh definition of Genocide, from Webster's online dictionary: " the deliberate and systematic destruction of a racial, political, or cultural group" By the way- this discussion does not belong...

You do not know what the word "Genocide" means. Look it up. Israel is not perfect, but has never gotten even close to 'genocide'. And sorry- civilians being inadvertently killed during a battle does not qualify as 'genocide'.

I hope I understand Dave's criticism of Relativity. I only have a PhD in Chemistry, and don't know the theory that well. I'm a bit better on Quantum Mechanics, but for some reason that has been spared the wrath of God.

Dave! Please! You simply don't understand modern physics. Learn about it first, then you can discuss it an attack it in an intelligent fashion. This thread is only getting more absurd- you are not doing your cause any good.

When I studied quantum mechanics, the professor said "When you first study Quantum Mechanics, it won't make any sense to you. But after a while- you'll get used to it." It is probably the best example of a scientific theory that works, yet is completely non-intuitive. Which just tells you to be...
