Maybe I have not done enough research before to find the answer to this question, but I am going to ask it anyways.Actually, you have no personal clue as to the actual shape of the other "planets," as you have never personally found yourself standing on one of the other planets.
Why is it just the Earth that is flat? We know that other planets are round. But, it just happens to be Earth? All planets that we know of share one same characteristic, and it is that they are round. Earth just doesn't have this characteristic for some reason? I mean, Earth is special, in that it supports life, but it must share the same roundness that other planets share.

I could show you a square and given enough visual interference it could appear round.

But aside from secretive organizations primarily ran by governments, we have no evidence of the actual size, shape, makeup, etc. of those "planets".You mean a multitude of organisations which publically release information?
Yes there are reasons, but those reasons are no more plausible than what many of the FE supporters claim.No, they are infinitely more plausible.
Actually, you have no personal clue as to the actual shape of the other "planets," as you have never personally found yourself standing on one of the other planets.Yet you are "standing on the earth" but don't seem to have "personal clue as to the actual shape of the" earth.
I could show you a square and given enough visual interference it could appear round.Really? I don't see any interference in this photo of Jupiter!
Why is it just the Earth that is flat? We know that other planets are round.
And did Tessa or Yuri write that?Why is it just the Earth that is flat? We know that other planets are round.
How do we know that other planets are round? It'd be by the same ways we know ('know') the Earth is round, surely? So why would that evidence be acceptable for other planets but not the Earth?
In other words, many FErs believe other planets are flat too.

EARTH - SUN DISTANCE: 15-20 KILOMETERS
The Sun's diameter is some 600 meters:

The Sun, Moon, Black Sun, Shadow Moon and Jupiter have the same diameter.
All planets/stars have the shape of a disk.
Venus and Typhon-Nibiru (Mercury) orbit the Sun: together they orbit above the flat surface of the Earth.
The distance from Earth to the Sun is some 15-20 km (this figure might be even lower).
No need to comment that. sandokhan could first discuss this with his fellow FEers and find a common denominator.QuoteFlat Earth Believers / Re: Advanced Flat Earth Theory « Message by sandokhan on August 09, 2017, 06:07:14 AM » (https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=30499.msg1939818;topicseen#msg1939818)

Ok, sorry. I need to comment that.All I can say is: yes, yes, yes and yes. But his Advanced Flat Earth Theory makes entertaining reading.
You would need a heat source, which radiates more than 5000 K. Otherwise, it would be very cold at places several thousands of kilometers away from directly below the sun. But in direction to directly below the sun the heat radiation must decrease rapidly to not melt the earth surface.
The sunlight would no longer be yellow-white. But according to FE theories the atmolayer has many properties. It could therefore easily redshift the light. Nonetheless, on a mountain or in a plane, the sunlight would be more bluish.
Apropos, does the sun sometimes move directly over a high mountain? It would not be wise to be there at noon with the distance to the sun significantly reduced. Also being on Mount Everest should be avoided at any time. It receives the heat radiation from the sun for places, which are about twice as far away. With the sun having a diameter of about 600 m - therefore being (almost) a point source - and the inverse square law and a temperature of 25°C in China multiplied with four, the received heat radiation on Mount Everest would boil water. Therefore, no ice on the Himalaya.
Apropos, Himalaya. With the sun being in only 15-20 km altitude and the Himalaya having an altitude of about 8 km over an east/west width of 3000 km, a significant area of west China would not receive any sunlight. Never. Ever.
The only way a flat earth would work is if we're living in a computer simulation, where rules of physics can change depending on boundaries and such.Nope. That is just how it is represented. He exists in flat toroidal space.
