Title: Wikipedia is favouring the globularist again

Early results seemed to prove the Earth to be flat, but most later attempts to reproduce the observations firmly supported the established view that the Earth is a sphere.
That's total codswallop.

If anyone has a wikipedia account can they at the least bung a [citation needed] after it because the experiment was done 3 times.

1) Rowbotham. Earth shown to be flat.
2) Hampden and Wallace. Result annulled in a court of law.
3) Lady Blount. Earth shown to be flat.

Dr. Rowbotham performed his experiments dozens of times over the course of several years in front of audiences of friend and foe alike. Not one account exists of a globular result.

Hasn't the experiment been done recently by Daniel?  When is he going to publish his results?  That would be very neat to read on wikipedia.

Also, I feel like you should be more angry about your own wiki promoting the globularist agenda: http://theflatearthsociety.org/wiki/index.php?title=Bedford_Level_Experiment (http://theflatearthsociety.org/wiki/index.php?title=Bedford_Level_Experiment)

Quote
The most famous of the observations, and the one that was taught in schools until photographs of the Earth from space became available, involved a set of three poles fixed at equal height above water level along this length. As the surface of the water was assumed to be level, the discovery that the middle pole, when viewed carefully through a theodolite, was almost three feet higher than the poles at each end was finally accepted as a new proof that the surface of the earth was indeed curved.

In 1901 Henry Yule Oldham, a geography reader at King's College, Cambridge, conducted the definitive experiment described in Method, above.

Great news, thanks for bringing it up. I had long suspected that wikipedia was not spreading knowledge but propaganda. Suffice it to check the JFK and 911 entries on the perpetrators.

Of course it also tries to defame Rowbotham:

allegations of sexual misconduct

The rule for me is that if it says someone is a conspiracy theorist, that is the person telling the truth. The same rule applies if they try to defame him.

But don't try to change it because these entries are directly under the satanic elite's control.

That is honestly a pretty stupid rule. Do you beleive that David Icke has really uncovered the fact that the world is run by lizard people? Do you beleive that New Earth has been on a inter dimensional nazi UFO? Do you believe that Vauxhal has had sex with a shape shifting baby turtle?

Additionally, I don't see how it's possible that not a single conspiracy theorist has ever done something to break the law.

1. Result was as stated
2. Result was not annulled in a court of law. Courts don't have the power to do that. The only thing settled in a court of law was a libel case. Wallace's results showed the earth was not flat.
3. Lady Blount's account differs from those of others present during the experiment, the photographic evidence does not match any of the written accounts, and it is likely that Blount bribed witnesses with sexual favours. Oh, and she was a close friend of Rowbotham.
4. The experiment has been performed several times since and no other results indicating flatness have been demonstrated. Including when it was conducted by Daniel Shenton.

Well... this bizarre "rule" would certainly help explain why you believe the earth is flat.    ::)

Interesting theory.  Are you channeling jroa by any chance?  He believes that satanists are running NASA.
