Question about the ice wall.
« on: June 13, 2006, 06:42:21 PM »
I read the FAQ it states that the circumferance of the earth is 78225. Now I am assuming that the "ice wall" is not too thick perhaps less than 10 miles. But I don't know. That would make the coast line of the ice wall pretty close to the same 78,000 miles long.

Now, I am also assuming that what you are calling the "ice wall" is what the rest of the mislead world would call Antarctica. However, the coast line of Antarctica is only 17,968 km (11,165 miles). How come there is such a vast difference between the two measurements? And if the coastline of Antarctica represents the borders of the world that would mean that there is 391,423,686.5 square miles in the entire world. But according to RE'rs the earth is approx 196.9 million square miles? How are the numbers so far different. And if you used the 78,000 circumference to calculate the area of the earth the numbers would be far far worse?

How can you rectify the large discrepancies?

Rectification: RE people who give you the numbers are lying.

So let me get this straight. According to your numbers of a circumferance of 78,000 miles which we will assume are accurate for purposes of discussion, everything would be much further apart in order to still even take up the space on earth. So let's say you are getting on a boat to go to, oh, I don't know.... let's say Austrailia. RE'rs will tell you that it is let's say 3000 miles. You also know that a mile is 5,280 feet. You can physically measure how many feet a minute are being traveled. Let's say you are traveling at 10 miles an hour, it would take you 300 hours to travel that distance. So it would take you 12.5 days. However, if you use the circumferance of 78,000 miles the distance is roughy 7 times squared farther. Roughly 49 times farther. So what would take you 12.5 days would suddenly take you 612.5 days traveling the same speed. So is it an illusion or is the boat that we measure traveling 52,800 feet a hour really traveling 49 times faster?

I invite you to demonstrate that what you say would happen actually does happen.  Until then, I feel safe in my belief that dead reckoning is not quite that accurate.

You either are intentionally dodging the question or you just don't get it. What I was demonstrating is that given the distance around Antarctica (give the measurements by RE'rs and other conspiritors) if it were to be layed out as you propose it would make the earth much larger than we see in reality. Secondly, if the circumferance of the earth is actually as you propose it would enlarge the size of the earth by an unbelieveable amount. Yet you have no way of justifying that. You simply say it's a lie with no explanation.

Please feel free to present your own math to support your position. After all, it's you who are going against the norm so it's up to you to present evidence. I am simply asking for math that supports your position.


Something in the back of my head tells me my math is wrong. I kind of went through it pretty fast. So it should be fairly easy to refute my math with something besides "it's a lie"

This is quite possibly the most original thing I have ever seen posted here. Congratulations, but you fail in your demonic task of undermining our lord gods almighty flat-earth and you shall burn in the lake of fire for your blatant disregard for gods feelings.

UJB, if you say you believe in God and you make remarks like that I would guess you to be a Baptist. Am I close?

Would you like to present evidence to simply call down fire and brimstone on me? Cause if it's just fire and brimstone please take it to the rants section.

Brief lesson in english probably wouldn't hurt either.

Please hit dictionary.com and learn the difference between to, too and two.

OK, I'll help you guys out since you didn't seem to catch it. My math is WAY WAY wrong in calculating the area of the earth. Take a look at that and find a work around.

What the heck???  UJB, you are not Baptist.  Quit lying, will you?  Everybody, check out his website.  No Baptist would have a webpage saying that you can reach God through the anus.  BTW, my church was derived from a Baptist church.  In no way, shape, or form does anybody say stuff like that.

How come you get to decide what an official baptist is like and he doesnt?

And would a real baptist have an avatar of someone beating someone else over the head with a chair and a location of "your mamas house"?

 I gave proof and no one has refuted it. Therefore, it's truth.
