    you never answer anybody's questions. You didn't answer El kabong and you didn't answer walrus and you didn't answer me. Whenever there's a question you can't answer you say it's an ad hominem argument. Nice and convenient strategy you have.

    I don't know how you live with yourself, living in 100% denial, living the life of a pure liar.
    A repugnant the troll who should not have the right to speak.
    Bit Molotov's from the Mount on the last eh. Not like any single odd ball topic and stubborn dedication therein defines us fully as real life scale individuals. I think the Earth being flat is nuttier than Chinese chicken salad but fair play to Alpha being back in it and making a case as one, far from a moron, idiot or a life of lies.
    Anyone who thinks the world is flat is an idiot. it means they have to willfully ignore looking up and seeing all the heavenly bodies spherical in shape. It means they have to willfully look up during lunar and solar eclipses and ignore the curvature of the shadow that the Earth casts on to the moon and that the moon casts on to the Earth etc etc etc. You can't get more idiotic than that. I'm just stating a fact. sermon on the Mount is more about morals and things of that nature. But if somebody comes up and says two plus two equals 7 I think using shear logic it's pretty idiotic
    Man's entitled to his opinion based on life as he sees and lives it. Hell do I care if someone thinks the moon is made of cheese. If your default end game is repetitive molotovs aka insults new guy than stick with it, surely you'll go far with that.
    I believe this is the only topic and which I use any insults. I'm assuming you have seen all the other insults on all the other threads by several other posters. Yet I don't remember you responding to any of them the way you just responded to me.

    Hmmmm....
    You have no idea what I've responded to and what I see friend . Concern yourself with yourself, and go get a glass of water and answer the mans question or something.

    Ok true on that! But in the 2+2=7, yes he has the right to him opinion, but 2+2=4 means Earth shadow is curved during lunar eclipse, we can see WITH our eyes as the Earth pass between the round sun and the round moon that the round shadow of the Earth slowly moving across the surfass of the moon! It's the clear proof! So he doesn't want to admit and says it's strawman arguements so I became agravated by those thing.

    @spice @spics @Spicoli yes your right I will get the glass of water, but I'll say I studied astronomy for 1 year and was frustrating when alpha just dismiss proofs of greats like Isaac Newton! 😬 Isaac Newton is not strawman argumwnt, spice.

    I already posted earlier that the first eclipses were predicted using flat earth models. The Babylonians were fantastic astronomers, also had a flat earth model. If you look honestly at eclipses you will see the issues. A shadow doesn't cast smaller than the object that's throwing it.

    And again, looking at the sky gives you nothing tangible for the ground beneath your feet.

    You happily ignore the physics of water for a belief in something you have never seen with your own eyes.

    I never said Newton was a strawman argument, at least keep things honest.

    Again avoiding the point, is all you do like an expert avoiding it! Size of shadow is avoiding my point and you know it! Shape of shadow is the point. Shadow is curved. Each side as well, first the leading curve edge of Earth passes across the moon, then the Earth blocks out the moon perfectly, then the opposite edge of the Earth passes across the moon. Your change that subject to avoid the truth.

    CELESTIAL TRACKING WAS INVENTED BY FLAT EARTHERS. ECLIPSE PREDICTION WAS INVENTED BY FLAT EARTHERS. THALES AND ANAXIMANDER OF MILETUS ARE IN GLOBE EARTH HISTORY BOOKS SAYING THEY WERE THE FIRST TO CORRECTLY PREDICT AN ECLIPSE!! Citation: "In concluding this astronomical discussion, the Lecturer expressed his opinion that the date B C. 585 was now established for the eclipse of Thales beyond the possibility of a doubt." Airy on Thales' eclipse - On the results of recent calculations on the Eclipse of Thales and Eclipses connected with it. - G B Airy, Esq. F.R.S. Astronomer Royal https://www-history.mcs.st-andrews.a...ry_Thales.html "Thales described a simple model of a small flat Earth surrounded by a sheet of water" http://practicalphysics.org/thales-model-universe.html "Anaximander described the Earth as rounded and circular with two plane surfaces (not necessarily a flat disk, more like a cylinder or ‘stone pillar’), which was suspended freely in space." http://astronomy.swin.edu.au/cosmos/A/Anaximander

    Looking at the sky gives you nothing quantifiable for the shape of the earth. Where can I go and measure this curvature then? Give me something practical.

    You continue to push visual phenomena, when physical, tangible phenomena proves the globe is only a concept.

    You have jumped from images, to gravity, to eclipses etc as your proofies but failed to provide a practical demonstration of your belief in the claim of the globe that standing bodies of water can conform to the exterior of a shape. All you have is faith, you can test the physics of water for yourself.
