Is the earth flat?

[Master]

I was watching Ranulph Fiennes video and he did a Transglobe Expedition where he did the journey in the most difficult way which was crossing both poles. He lost the tips of his fingers due to frostbite. He would say the world is round.

Come on Master, you can do better than that, a Freemason?

Take a look at this video from about the 7:50 mark:

Freemason?

Surely you are joking now? Go down to your local Freemason Hall and ask them to explain what they do. You are just coming up with excuse to have rubbish drip fed to you instead of making any effort to find things out for yourself. Using conspiracies to avoid the difficult questions is a cop out and you know it.


It is very easy for you to sit on your arse and mock the achievements of others because you set the lowest possible bar and then dismiss anything that contradicts your world view. You have the chap in your video moaning about their not being any photographs when you have already said that you do not accept photographs or video as evidence. Then you go and post videos as evidence. Where is the motive for everybody who had navigated the globe, went to space, conducted experiments to all lie about the earth being a sphere? It is not there. You are pretending that people like Ellen Mcarthur, her team and everyone connected with her, are all colluding in pretending to sail single handedly around the earth when in fact she did what exactly? and why?

I have said star trails and pulling out a compass, did you see any of that? I would accept a live unedited stream of that.

I posted the vid so Master was aware of the person he was presenting, and how hilariously fake it was. I still laugh when I see it

Still waiting on empirical evidence of your spinning ball earth

Thanks for the video but still believe Sir Ranulph Fiennes.

Not a problem my friend, I'll just leave another quote I like here for you:

“One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we've been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we've been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.”

― Carl Sagan

Carl Sagan bamboozled us about the probability of intelligent life evolving elsewhere. He said there are billions and billions of civilizations in out galaxy.

Reality is different. There's certainly bound to be lots of planets with simple life (bacteria) and possibly many with multi-celled life (such as arthropods, fish, molluscs).

But intelligent life is rare, there's probably fewer than 10 planets, certainly fewer than 100 per galaxy that have advanced life.

It took about 3 billion years for multi-celled life to evolve from simple life on earth, and another 550 million years for intelligent life to evolve. When we look outside at night, do people realize that more than 99% of all the stars we see won't last nearly as long as the sun has because they are burning their hydrogen more rapidly, being larger and hotter?

Only a very few faint stars we can see such as Epsilon Eridani will live as long or longer as the sun, and for most of those there are other reasons why advanced life would not be possible, such as the massive debris disk with an enormous number of collision-creating asteroids around Tau Ceti.
