    Again, if you want to believe hearsay, pictures and video, then all power to you. I prefer actual science. You know, natural science, that uses empirical evidence to prove things.

    But again, if you want to believe water can conform to the exterior of a shape, when you know that's impossible in our reality, and again, something you have never seen, and are able to prove yourself, doesn't happen in our reality, then all power to you. You believe in God without any empirical evidence, so you have already shown that you are susceptible to deception. But I hope you realize that is also only a belief, and not a proven fact as well.
    So u call me susceptible to deception for my spiritual beliefs. Is that how we counter differing views now? Seems a bit narrow. If I may ask, when did I mention religion to you
    I was replying to Tito, but that statement remains true. I myself believe in a creator (Not the God of the bible tho), but it is only a belief, as there is no empirical evidence. I do not claim it to be a fact of our reality. As I would hope everyone would understand the difference between facts and belief.

    I was waiting for this, we have already had a drop of water, so it was bound to show up sooner or later. I post this one for you's, so you don't waste my time any further:



    And this is water running down.

    Firstly, neither is water conforming to the exterior of a shape like it would need to on a globe, secondly, doesn't look like any ball earth model I've ever seen, thirdly, are we claiming the substances are the same as they are on a ball earth?

    It’s causing the magnetic North Pole to ‘skitter’ away from Canada, towards Siberia.

    “The magnetic pole is moving so quickly that it has forced the world’s geomagnetism experts into a rare move,” Nature reports.

    Strange things happen. Just because they can’t be repeated, observed and or fully explained does not make them null. Some scientist say they can create life in a testube but that is in a lab in an already created earth with billions of living creatures. We can’t duplicate no gravity on earth, but it exists unless you deny space flight etc. I’m not into blind acceptance. We might be able to duplicate the Grand Canyon in a controlled area with a shitload of water of a few million or hundreds of millions years. Anyway wtf do I know I guess it doesn’t really matter


    Speaking of North Poles and such..... assuming the Earth is flat...... when the compass points north, where do you figure it's pointing?
    I figure it's pointing North?

    In the middle.

    So no matter where you are on Earth, a compass will always point................. toward the middle? I see...

    Where exactly would that middle be? Because Flat Earthers must have their own map from which the er..... "middle"..... should be well identified and its location well known.

    Where would this middle be?

    While we're at it, Round Earthers explain night and day by stating that the sun is always shining on half of the Earth, while the other half is in nighttime darkness. Easy enough to explain with a globe but.......... how does that work with a flat Earth? I mean, if the sun hides from a flat Earth, it hides for everybody, right? Even if low on the horizon or off at an angle, it would still cast sunshine on that part of the planet. So...... if the Earth is flat (which I'm not questioning anymore )..... then how does the sun hide from some parts and not others? How is it that when it's daylight in the U.S., it's nighttime in China?

    Does a compass not always point north? I've never been to the north pole, as I'm sure you never have either. But when you get there, with your exploring, pull out a compass for us to see, and also show the star trails, so we can prove where you are. Not some military designer Global positioning system.

    Research perspective, we can only see so far, even using tools like a telescope etc. So as things get further away that go out of sight to a vanishing point. Like railway tracks, or light poles, they disappear from the observer at a vanishing point.

    Good questions, but you still haven't presented 1 piece of empirical evidence of your spinning ball earth. And are even avoiding the fact that the surface of water will always be flat after finding it's level. Look into how canals are built, railway tracks.

    I'm happy to answer questions, but it's better it you research it and understand it yourself, rather than me telling you. Just try proving a spinning ball earth to yourself. Forget theories and what you have seen in images or video, use actual Natural science, stuff you can demonstrate to yourself, test and repeat, we are talking reality, so it should be easy to prove in our reality right?

    So you had to remove my link and post a video I never even posted to refute a point I never made? Adhesion mate. Even without mass, scale and gravity, you suggesting surface tension etc, and the adhesive qualities of water we see every day, in raindrops hanging of objects and on windscreens, utterly demolishing your idea that water not only can not cling to anything, but always has to conform to the shape of a flat tray when that is demonstrably not true. That is even discounting the reality of gravity being so important that is not only accounts for the seas being pulled down into an uberdense center and adhering to the surface of the spherical earth but for the actual shape of our global earth.

    No I had to remove your link as it wouldn't let me post my vid in the reply, because it only allows 1 vid per post.

    Yes we know how adhesion and meniscus works. It's not water conforming (not clinging or sticking) to the exterior of a shape.

    Both theories of gravity have never been proven, and are not empirical evidence.
