Once and for all, who the believes in bendy light?
Wilmore don't, John Davis don't, many others don't. Please for the love of god let us know if there are ANYONE left believing. It seems discussions are still going on, but no FE I've seen claims he even believe it.

It's to explain why the sun is so close to the horizon during sunset and sunrise, right? I think I arrived late, as for my entire time here it's had the feel of an inside joke. What did I miss? Did a bunch of them believe it, some obvious flaw was pointed out, and now none of them believe it?
-
and now none of them believe it?
That's what I'm trying to figure out.
-
Does it really matter if anyone believes it or not?

I don't.

It does matter as it puts a big hole in the FE theory.

It's a possible explanation for something, whether one actually "believes" it is irrelevant.

It is very relevant. If FE'er does not believe in the possible explanation for something(bendy light), it puts a big hole in there entire belief (flat earth). Unless they have another explanation.

Perspective light + atmospheric magnification.

Uhm, yes.
1) RE don't have to continually argue against idiots like Parsifal, or argue against the idea at all.
2) You'll have to come up with another theory.
Do you or do you not believe, FE'ers?
Stop shitting up my thread. There's one question, adressed to only FE'ers. Don't argue why it's relevant, don't argue you don't care, don't argue it doesn't put a hole in your theory and don't argue why I didn't include something else on the "don't argue list".

1.) Parsifal seems pretty confident no RE'ers have disproved bendy light, so it is a valid hypothesis/whatever you want to call it.
2.) If it's not relevant, why post it?
-

He deliberately pretends the disproof was never written in the forum. I don't call ignoring posts that show why it's disproved "pretty confident".

Gonna put you down for, "Believes in the bendy light theory."

I don't think Sean believes in a flat earth. It's a bit hard to tell from his post history though, when half of lies in the number game in random musings.

How is that relevant to my posts in this thread?

Nope. There's a great raft of optophysics which disproves bendy light. Steve just chose to ignore it. :'(
-

Yes,its in the FAQ which every visitor is refered to no?
-
If you can accept that glass and water can bend light, why can't you accept that our atmosphere can bend light?
-
It does, just not in the perfect way that is required for FE.

If you can prove that the Earth is a sphere, you disprove bendy light, so bendy light has been disproven.

Gonna repost this and point out that Sean did NOT refute this statement.

No, it isn't. I was unable to find any posts from him saying if he believed in either, though I found some early ones questioning the FET.
So far, no one has come forward to say they believe in bendy light. It's currently safe to assume that the bendy light idea is no longer a part of FET.

An extremely stupid post.
-
How so?
-
Because if nobody believes it then it should be discarded completely and the flat guys should get to work on a new theory.
-
(Unless someone disproved bendy light, which Steven denies) It is a possible solution to a problem with FET. Because people choose not to believe it, that doesn't make it any less possible.

Once a theory is disproved, it becomes less possible. I could choose not to believe any number of proven scientific facts, that doesn't mean my opinion is correct or valid. Beeny light is not a solution to anything in FET because as well as explaining ONE phenomenon it also predicts others which are NOT observed. Therefore the theory of beeny light is demonstrated to be wrong, regardless of how many people want it to be right.

This comment is kind of like when Clay Aiken said it was no one's business if he was gay or not. everyone knew he was, but he just wouldn't admit it.

I'll be linking this thread everytime anyone mentions EA/BL.

Why is it so irrelevant? I found it quite interesting.
-
Whether someone believes it or not has no relevance to it's validity as a theory.

Saying your mom is fat enough to guard the whole ice wall is not believed, but it's relevant because it could be possible.
-
It could be, until I, or anyone, disprove the idea with some simple measurements.
-
All right. I had to make sure you were just trolling.
So far everyone has been in agreement that no one believes in bendy light, meaning we don't have to discuss it anymore.
-
So far no-one has explained why people believing a theory is relevant.
-
lol nice one, you almost had me I must admit
-
I'm guessing nobody is going to tell me? :'(

I'm not talking about the validity of BL as a theory. I'm just curious about the amount of people that belives on BL. Why? curiosity itself.

I have, in another thread.
