haha lol, how long did it take you to realise the truth? and make this thread?

Read the Faq noob1. it's not evidence
It's been set up by people who are quite clearly smart and adept at writing, by the looks of it, at a university level and also -given the popularity of the theory that the earth is supported on the backs of 4 elephants standing on a giant turtle - more than a few Terry Pratchett fans.
QuoteBut how can I "fail more" If I'm not the one that belives the earth is flat?
You fail because you believe in something you cannot see and have never tested for yourself. Much like a man of religion.
Turkey sandwich was locked because it did not relate to FE.
Shaved llama had been done manyh times and was pointless.
I did not lock either of the threads.
Fail more.
What thread was locked?
Raging-Hippo locked the thread.he was talking about his thread.Hello, I locked the ham sandwich thread because our logic was just too much for the fe'rs.
And this belongs in general discussion, as it doesn't relate to FE.
QuoteYou just made all of that up and you call it fact?
The shuttle is designed as a high altitude glider in your model too. Look it up.

Note that one of the reasons for believing in a flat earth is that it looks flat. If I were to look around then I would not believe in air, atmosphere and oxygen, but those things do happen to exist. What about atoms Roundy, do they exist? I can't see them in front of me, so using the basis that you use, they don't exist either. This argument is moot because none of you will ever accept proof of a round earth unless you see for yourself, at which point when you become converted the rest of the believers of a FE will say you were paid off.This is untrue as we can feel air as we can see the shape of the earth.
I can feel gravity and I can see the roundness of the earth.
See where there is no logic in producing a stalemate. Only cold hard evidence besides subjective belief can prove a flat earth or round earth.
And trust me, we have proof of a round earth. Just scroll upwards until you SEE a picture of it.
So you lose and we win.
Cheers,
=PS
PS: How many more boring subjective arguments will be generated from what I just said?
This is the sort of thing that irritates me about this site. Rather than trying to convince people by demonstrating how things really are, they come back with totally pathetic 'arguments' like 'look out your window, that proves it is flat!' I mean jesus, come on...
That kind of mindset is how people thought in the stone age. It looks a certain way, therefore it must be! I'm watching my television, it looks like there are people there behind the glass, so there must be! A plane in the sky at cruising height looks like it's only travelling at a few millimetres a second, therefore it must be!
What a load of complete rubbish. You must agree that those few statements are complete tosh, so why should "look out of the window, the Earth looks flat, so it must be flat!" be treated any differently?
Have you never heard of an 'optical illusion'? This is something that looks a certain way, but actually isn't. If the Earth's surface only has to change angle by 360 degrees over about 25 THOUSAND MILES, and just so you don't have to do the math, that means it's only changing angle on average by one degree every SEVENTY MILES, then it's going to LOOK flat isn't it? Even from the top of the CN Tower, they say on a clear day, clear day this is, you can see about a hundred miles. That's just over 1 degree of angle change. You wouldn't see it. The Earth would look flat. This I agree on.
But, and this is the distinction that none of you FE advocates seem to grasp, is that that doesn't prove anything. Just because something looks a certain way, doesn't make it so. Nothing you've said does, not convincingly. Prove me wrong, please do.
another victory for RE.
Tom does not represent the flat earth society, he's just an internet troll, but without him there would be less people on the board
Sorry, just read the FAQ's. I think it explains it very well, and it is much more believeable than the RE theory. It explains the ice wall, too. But I really want to get to the edge of the earth. Does anyone have any advice on climbing the ice wall and getting through the goverment forces?
Cheers
Yes, that explanation makes much more sense. That there is magical gigantic fucking ice block at the edges of the Earth that no one has ever seen than the actuality of the situation that the Earth is ROUND!
Or he's not online.That's nice to know, seriously, I've noticed that Tom's the weirdest one of the lot.
Also, pretty much every FE poster will tell you that the views of Tom Bishop represent only his own (and we're not really sure about that even).
Why call it shaved llama, and what does John mean?I've just got a thing going on with randomness...
In before teh lock!
How deliciously absurd!not as bad a flat earth...
Your issue is with RE cosmology, not with the FE.
QuoteHow does NASA simulate the reentry of the shuttle from 38 miles up at 17,500 mph? People have watched the bright light of the shuttle as it reenters the atmosphere.
The shuttle is a high altitude glider which creates pretty lights in the sky as it free falls from the edge of space into the atmosphere of the earth.QuoteWhat happened to the shuttle Columbia? Again there are eyewitness accounts as it crossed the Californian coast all the way to Texas where it broke up.
The Shuttle Columbia was a prop failure.QuoteHow does NASA simulate the shuttle chasing the spacestation. I have personally seen this when the ISS goes overhead you can see it as a bright dot in the sky and the shuttle close behind it as a second bright dot.
NASA uses rockets to maneuver the shuttle.
The theory of Time Symmetry says it must, and that both are exactly the same as those of light.
Dark consists of nothing, light consists of energy.
If light energy has a speed,
How can nothing have a speed?
What proof do you have that dark consists of nothing. Don't say you can find it on google. Give actual proof, right here. And yes, I'm serious.
I'm not a phyicist.
and no , your not serious, fuck you.
I am serious. If you are absolutely sure that dark has no speed or acceleration, and consists of nothing, then surely you can provide the proof to back up your claim. The scientific, non circumstantial evidence. And don't ever tell me when I'm serious again. Come back with proof and some fucking manners.
proof and some fucking manners.change your avatar too while I'm at it.

woops, quoted wrongly;
"provide proof"
I already have...
ok, go into a drark room, turn the light on. The light tavels to the walls, floor etc... and it isn't dark because there is light.
now turn your light off, and the light stops being emmitted, Thus, it's dark again, because there isn't any light.
Prove that dark has no acceleration. You have yet to do that.
I dont need to prove it doesn't have accleration if I've proved it doesn't have speed.
Prove it doesn't have speed.
Your enjoying this aren't you
At least you dont have an opinion, and your just having some fun.

No, your not serious, now please, ploitley, fuck off!
Actually, I am completely serious, you haven't scientifically proven a thing. And now you're insulting me to avoid providing proof.
prove to me that hearts dont look like that
You are an idiot. You do not believe hearts look like that. But guess what? I can read your mind, so let me explain the argument that you are very poorly trying to make:
(1) Flat Earth theory is an assertion based on one fact, that the Earth looks flat.
(2) I can make a wild theory based on based on one observed fact, and it will be clear to everyone that my wild theory is false.
(3) Therefore, Flat Earth theory is false.
Step (1) is a false claim. Flat Earth theory is based on much gathered evidence about the direct shape of the earth.
Step (2) is also a poor link. Even the "one" observation you list is not comparable. The earth looks flat from every vantage point, every day.
Even if step (1) and (2) were true, you could not claim step (3)!!
So STFU.
no i have another reason why i believe all hearts look like that. because my 6 year old cousin has a "Lets Play Doctor" toy kit and it comes with an x-ray thing and she put it on my chest (where my heart is) and thats the image that showed up.
all hearts look like the picture i posted.
Your point?respond.
Old.
*****predicts answer*****
"read the FAQ, or go eat a pie."
LOL apparently every single question about FE has been asked and answered correctly.....which leads me to wonder why it isnt an accepted theory. Oh yeah, its not true!
