You are also mocking Andre's bubbles for not having metals and a core when you have for the entire thread denied that is necessary and impossible to model when dealing with your own curved water around a sphere mantra.
The physics of water are not an illusion. They are testable and demonstrable. Show me where I have ever said "level water on the horizon be accepted as evidence".

Are you saying that when you observe railway tracks converging, that they are in reality?

I'm not mocking Andre's bubbles, but they in no way represent in the slightest the globe model.

You continue to misrepresent me.

Bullshit. You continue to refuse to engage. I am using YOUR criteria and still your intellectual dishonesty is so extreme it is off the scale. Go back and address the points raised and stop evading everything. Your 'no such thing as experts' view of the world is dangerously catching on. You are pissing on the chips of other people because you want your own vinegar of opinion and belief to replace facts and real world experience. Nobody is misrepresenting you at all. We have all addressed your assertions and dreamy hallucinations and you don't have the decency to engage with anyone when it is demonstrated they are built on nonsense.

You are a believer in something that makes you feel special, don't kid yourself that it has anything to do with science or reality.
