    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon--Part II

    Except that you aren't debating and you aren't even investigating. When someone refutes an argument you've made, simply repeating the argument as though nothing was said to refute it doesn't count as debate. That's called stubbornness (or worse). Besides, this thread has been going on for...

    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon--Part II

    Yeah, that's exactly why this bothers me so much! Don't let this thread deter you. Everything on his website is worthwhile so long as he hasn't added a bunch of FET stuff.

    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon--Part II

    I don't think I'd go that far but it is totally confounding. Have you seen his website? It's full of stuff that is just brilliant! What it feels like is that he's had a stroke or been in some sort of accident that caused brain damage because it just doesn't seem possible that the same clear...

    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon--Part II

    You can repeat yourself all you like and you can lie all you like (to yourself mostly) about the veracity of your so called evidence but it doesn't change reality and it doesn't change the fact that I have personally proven that the Earth cannot possibly be flat. I thought that I might be able...

    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon--Part II

    There have been many proofs presented in this thread that the Earth cannot possibly be flat that you haven't even bothered to address, nevermind refute. And I mean it when I say PROOF! And yet you refuse to allow simple reason to persuade your mind. WHY? I invite you to read my post #3462 and...

    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon--Part II

    It actually doesn't but the difference is tiny because the balloon isn't very far off the surface of the Earth in comparison to its size. The Earth is a very big sphere and even if the balloon is very high in relation to the size of a human being, its still quite close in relation to the size of...

    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon--Part II

    For those of you who are Christians and who hold to this nonsensical idea that the Earth is flat, in spite of the several indisputable proofs that have been presented in this thread, I would like to ask you to consider just why you refuse to allow plain reason to persuade your mind. I'm not...

    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon--Part II

    Okay, so it turned out that I had a really nicely clear sky this morning. Not that it turned out to matter much because things aren't exactly flat where I'm located and so my horizon is slightly elevated above what it would be if I was looking out over several miles of water but, nevertheless, I...

    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon--Part II

    On Wednesday, March 20, 2019, at 5:58 p.m. ET we all have a chance to prove once and for all that the Earth is not only not flat but that it is, in fact, spherical in shape. That's right every single person on this thread along with ever single person who belongs to any Flat Earth Society...

    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon--Part II

    They'll go, they'll figure out that they were wrong and it won't convince ANYONE who didn't go with them. They'll either fade into obscurity and be forotten (ignored) by the flat earthers or they'll be turned into villians who were never really flat earthers to begin with but where really NASA...

    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon--Part II

    No, it's saying that whether it changes or not, the time it takes to travel one arc diameter remains the same. In effect, it implies that the Sun slows its apparaent speed with a reduction of it's apparent size. That's why I asked him what I did. The fact that the Sun's apparent size does remain...

    No, I don't think that's what he's arguing. See my previous post.

    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon--Part II

    Okay, so let me make sure I understand this argument. You're saying that, for a particular observer (i.e. location), the length of time that it takes the sun to move an apparent distance across the sky that is equal to it's apparent size is the same no matter where the sun is in the sky. That...

    I don't know about any of the flat earthers but you've piqued my interest. What's your argument?

    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon--Part II

    So just what is it that I've said in regards to the FET (Flat Earth Theory) that you think is an opinion? I mean, the whole argument is based on two observations of the angle of the Sun above the horizon and then some highschool level math, the results of which falsify the FET. What is there...

    Don't worry about it at all. I didn't even notice! :chuckle: By the way, if you're writing a quick note like that to someone where using the quote tag doesn't really make sense, if you put a hash tag in front of the user's name, they'll get a notification that someone mentioned them in a...

    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon--Part II

    What's not his cup of tea is not being treated "nicely". He's using it as an excuse to not have to deal with the fact that his pet conspiracy theory was blown apart inside of a day of him posting on this thread. He figured it would be a lot harder for people to knock him off the high horse that...

    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon--Part II

    Wrong! Tantamount to a lie, really. I've specifically asked you where the "hole" is in my math - NO ANSWER! Further, I've given several extremely thorough and completely rational argument - none of which are base on a single syllable of opinion and you, like EVERY OTHER FLAT EARTHER haven't...

    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon--Part II

    Flat earthers do not deny the existence of satellites, they deny the fact that they orbit the earth. They're balloons or some other sort of air craft. It's stupid, I know but that's what they say. As for having to discuss it, its because we have entered a post-truth era where any truth can be...
