No, it slows it down, but not enough to notice at car driving speeds.Driving my car faster gets me to my destination sooner--in a shorter amount of time, but does driving my car faster speed up time?
Do you understand what it was that got me so angry about that?Good, so your not still mad at me for The earth is flat and we never went to the moon.![]()
Believing that the Earth is flat is reserved for stupid people, or at least it sure as Hell aught to be! You are very clearly not stupid, which turns it from stupidity into evil.
You were destroying your reputation and pulverizing every ounce of credibility you had. Not only that, but you had an overtly Christian ministry through which you were undoubtedly spreading that lunatic insanity and lending it the credibility of scriptural support and which was just handing unbelievers, not only an excuse to reject Christ and Christianity, but also a weapon to use against both. You could hardly have been doing more damage without trying to witness to people while in drag. It would have made as much sense and been less damaging for you to come on here and defend Yahweh Ben Yahweh as being the true Son of God.
I argued and argued and argued until I was blue in the face and nothing penetrated, but I couldn't just give up! If reason didn't work, then perhaps shaming you would. It was a last resort, but it had to be done. When the result of that was you choosing to leave the site rather than repenting, it was a disappointment, but I was willing to allow the offense of the truth to work its ministry. If you haven't figured out that the Earth isn't flat yet, then you will, eventually. The longer it takes the more embarrassed you'll feel but no one on this side of that issue is going to hold a grudge and you'll find yourself to be better equipped to crush the Flat Earthers than almost anyone else alive, and I will have purchased your forever friendship with a few months of offense and a few years of separation. A bargain!
Having said all of that, no, I'm totally not mad at you at all. On the contrary, I've missed you being around. You're one of the few who actually understands how to think clearly. Your nose dive off the deep end when it comes to Flat Earth nonsense is an unsolvable mystery that I cannot fathom. It literally felt like there were two of you. I've literally prayed, many times, for your repentance on that issue, that God would just have someone say something to you that made the light come on and caused you to see the glaringly obvious nonsense that Flat Earthism is. Whether that has happened yet or not, it doesn't mean we can't have productive discussions about other things. Conversations that I miss and look very much forward to having.
