Is the earth flat?

[El Kabong]

I never started the thread, so the title is out of my control. I would have called it "Questioning the claims of the globe".

I cut out your stuff about climate change and only replied to the bit about the earth, stating that there were no practical demonstrations proving the affirmative claims of the globe in what you wrote.

You used hearsay, images and riding in a plane as reasons for your belief in the globe, I use natural science, and practical demonstrations using tangible substances to show the globe is not reality. Not really much to discuss, unless you've got something practical to bring to the table.

That's fine.

Well the climate change part was all I really wanted to say it was a joke.


What shape do you believe the Earth is? What's your hypothesis about it?

Get off it El Kabby, the Earth is flat.

Get off it El Kabby, the Earth is flat.

Change your name to flatboxingfan then.

All good with the joke, I was just addressing the earth part. Earth is demonstrably level as practically demonstrated using the physics of the tangible substance called water.

I speculate there is more land (resources) being kept from us.

He's just trying another tactic because he has nothing practical to bring to the table.

at least not in a manner in which humans measure it or experience it.

I would like to discuss this a bit more if you're willing? I would suggest that what you measure and experience is flat and stationary.

Why does water stay in my glass?

Why does water stay in my glass?

Tusker doodle he will answer that the same way he answered when I asked him how come when I jump up in the air I come back down.

His answer was because that's just what happens you just come back down

😂😂🤣🤣😂😂

so don't hold your breath because his answer to your question will be because the water stays in the glass

That is literally the depth of his arguments

So what is incorrect with my reply? What were you claiming is happening?

[walrus]

How about eclipse and what not.

Again you are going back to visual phenomena, which is different from physical tangible phenomena. And looking at the sky to prove the shape of the ground beneath your feet.

The first eclipses were predicted on flat earth models:

All you really need are the physics of water to see through the veil.
