    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon

    Einstein and Newton worked on this, the properties collide and that's why science is cool, it tries to figure out and describe what is happening. The car moves through the air, thus 'is' the wind. You don't feel wind in your face because you are traveling with, making the wind. The air...

    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon

    Think of it this way: When you are driving in a car with the window up, why don't you feel the 100 mile-an-hour air if you are going 100 miles an hour? Why is the air in the car not smacking you in the face?

    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon

    I just noticed you both wear glasses. You honestly cannot see the curve? Hold a ruler up to it! Were you thinking the earth was smaller for some reason, that a curve would be more than apparent? It is, but not the size of the Astrodome! :doh: (did someone already mention this to...

    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon

    Well you've got both density and gravity here, as well as which weighs more. I'm not sure I'm understanding the question. Are you saying if something is lighter, gravity should affect it 'more' than something that is denser/heavier? :idunno: Try to think of this with water first? If...

    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon

    Well, yes, but not meanly. I'd thought, as you know, that you were doing this tongue and cheek but it was no mean or ill intention. I did? I think scrutiny is a good word. I'm sorry if you felt ridiculed. It may have come more in our private conversation thought, when I hadn't realized...

    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon

    "As far as the East is from the West, so far are your sins removed." In the flat-earth version? A short flight. In my understanding? Infinite, East NEVER meets West. Doubling down on your convictions is different than listening to what others are saying. Because I've a good many...

    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon

    :nono: Nice try, but this has no understanding of gravity. None.

    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon

    Not but inane baiting. If 'lying' is your only 'nuh uh' it is a lost debate. I don't have to go beyond this post because of it. :e4e:

    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon

    Doesn't work that way. The BEST way to prove this to you and Dave, would be to talk you both into getting your aviation licenses. Likely not going to happen so the only way for such discussion to go is into the archives. I know, per fact, the earth is a globe. You don't. No place to go...

    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon

    Had to ask. I just don't think anyone that has flown with a window seat would have speculated the world was flat. I have too many pilot friends and know for a fact, they don't lie. They are believers. One of them may go one way (over the top) to China, then travel the opposite way on...

    Have you taken many flights, Dave? :think:

    The earth is flat and we never went to the moon

    :chuckle: Well, I 'can' flip a pancake. Maybe the pilots are in on it and they just go around a different way...Remind me to bring a compass the next time I fly to China. :think:

    Without the shedding of blood, there is no remission of sins

    I questioned the P.S.' condemnation of virtually all Christians and it was the wrong thread as well. So here is your thread, Zenn. Rather than trying to condemn all men to hell (not YOUR job, nor your place), explain what you believe instead of the inane posturing and lame prognostication and...

    ECT Why do the heretics and charlatans always attack us anew on Christmas & Easter Etc?

    Why do the heretics and charlatans always attack us anew on Christmas & Easter Etc? What is the point of that??? To make us convert on our celebrated days? To try to Shanghai our celebrations and make them less meaningful? Because it is the most miserable day of the year for those who...

    I realize some don't do Christmas but this can be for any kind of gift so please, no debate or negative comment, if 'ya got naught, ya ought not' thanks. I need to make a few presents this year. I've done this before when funds are tight. They are this year because of college costs. The...

    Separation gone too far - the making of a secular state

    We really cannot have it both ways. A secular state is an atheist state. Many will boo and hiss but there is no such thing as trouncing religious rights without 'trouncing religious rights.' A good number of folks don't like this guy, Matt Walsh, but he says something here echoed by many...

    ECT Galatians 5:16 OBEY!!! Grace vs. Works

    Galatians 5:16 actually says 'walk,' not obey. I expect this thread to go a long distance because questions will be asked for about every response. For instance: do "I" obey? Or does God work obedience in me? Is it about freewill in that sense? Even a good many freewill theists...

    Sacred namers, are they correct?

    Ἰησοῦς Matthew 15:11 Matthew 12:34,35 My name is Lon. My children call me "Dad." Is that disrespect? :nono: My wife calls me about every nice name BUT "Lon" most of the time. Is that blasphemous? :nono: My mom calls me "Lon," is she more sincere or respectful to me? :nono: My...
