Title: Reasoning
Post by: whiskeyjoe on September 14, 2008, 02:11:24 AM
I'm just curious as to what reason people have to believe the world is flat. This is something people figured out a thousand years ago. I can understand people clinging to religion because it promises them infinite life, but why flat earthism? What is there to gain from thinking that the earth is flat in the 21st century?

I mean, how is it even possible that this is an argument? Take a look here: http://www.tate.org.uk/space/webcam.htm . This is live streaming video of the earth, as it rotates. Is this part of the conspiracy as well? I have access to similar satelite links at work (i work for ATT). Am I part of the conspiracy? What reason do people have to lie?

Next time, post this type of thread in General Discussion. There is nothing to clarify or to debate about it.

Hey WhiskeyJoe check out My Conveyer Belt of Suns Theory where each day there is actually a new sun. This could be possible if the earth were flat.

How was that "non sequitur"?
Modifying your post in the manner I did was neither following the subject in hand nor had it any logic asides ascii mockery. You, sir, fail.

Religion is based on biased fictional history, the belief in fictional beings, fuckloads of irony and a dash of ignorance to taste. Where the fuck is the logic?
