And yes chocolate can be liquidand at this point I've forgotten what relevance that may have in this head numbing redundancy.
Lets stop using 'flat' disk and instead go with Pizza Earth and surely the differences and disagreements will die out.

If a sphere to scale..not sure what that exactly means but there it is..spins at what is to be thought 1000 miles per hour (?). Lets say a normal size globe with consideration to soil, surface and ocean depths and terrain, would surface water not be likely to hold for the most part and rather than just slide off. Oh and gravity and stuff.
the pizza claim is a winner btw![]()
Would Mexico be like a giant jalapeno?
Watery pizza... ugh... I'm having none of it.
Or if you fill the sink, or a pool or anything else. You may throw in ice cubes but the water will still find it's level and the surface will remain flat. Lets leave that the other stuff out, as the claim of a globe has to be that water (which we are told covers over 70% of the earth's surface) can conform to the exterior of a shape.
Now would you agree that the core of science, should be observable, measurable, testable, and repeatable, using tangible substances. Meaning basically, if I claim something to be a reality, then you would expect me to show you something you could observe, test, measure and repeat yourself?
They live, We sleep
And would you expect the water surface of a pool, sink, etc, to be anything other than flat? A few feet versus thousands of miles? If you draw a circle 200 miles in diameter on the ground.... and take 2 inches of circumference.... would the line not be indistinguishable from a straight line? I know you don't want to hear about the "S" word (scale)... but it is what it is.
You keep asking about gravity. Well, you either believe Newton's law of universal gravitation, or you don't. Obviously, you don't. Why does the water conform to the Earth's surface? Well, just a wild guess... but gravitational force vectors are perpendicular to the Earth's surface at any given point, and are co-linear with the Earth's center. So at any given point, you'll have gravity forces acting on any mass, including water, pulling it straight down.
