Title: Denial.
Post by: Fiskpinnen on June 27, 2010, 12:56:23 AM
There's no other word for this sick joke.
Maybe one day you'll find the difference between being sceptical about claims being presented to you, and being in complete denial.

No one that in denial will ever accept a round Earth. They've made a choice to cherry-pick evidence, call "corrupted!" to any major evidence that contradicts them.
It's the same with any conspiracy, you're no different from the 2012 morons. "GOVERNMENT IS HIDING PLANET NIBIRU HURR DURR!" The governments are hiding an Ice Wall? An Ice Wall?! Did you fuck up trying to understand what an ice shelf is?

Suck on this. Real science does not work with the flat earth theory, so you blatantly claim the science is false. How? By stating as a fact that there IS a conspiracy. The conspiracy becomes an evidence for the conspiracy. Holy fallacy, Batman!

I've seen the curvature of Earth, if ever so slightly. I've seen hull-cameras of rockets from launch to orbit, showing a clear round Earth. I've read about people travelling around the world, ending up where they started. I've seen photos of the Earth. I've seen satellites. I've seen eclipses. You can call "fake!" "corruption!" "bribes!" on these, but you can never prove it wrong since all you have is your own assumption that you're right.
I've seen some proponents here disprove satellite photos of Earth by assuming that he KNOWS that the Earth is flat and thus there's no satellites in orbit.

I've seen proponents call video editing on videos showing a curved earth no matter the source or age (yet he would accept any youtube video made by flatMan18272 who's third grade physics can prove that the Earth is flat), some something they call "bendy light" which somehow only appear when viewing the Earth's horizon from high altitudes. A very interesting physical property of light, it changes when you want it to.

Some proponent stating that the Earth's shadow on the moon is the light from the sun, somehow bouncing off of the flat Earth, up to the moon then turns around and hits the back of the moon.
What. The. Fuck. Is. This. Bullshit.

It's evident when looking around here, that the dreaded 10k+ posters have no other credibility than big words and desperately trying to find what they think is logical fallacies with RET's posts or arguments.
Wouldn't it be wonderful if any of these actually were educated in the properties of light, of geometry, anything relevant. But no, their knowledge comes from youtube videos, or studies of which they apply elsewhere to prove their whole theory. If they read an article about light bending through gases or whatever, they freely twist that into "Oh, that is why the Earth can appear curved, since I know there's gases in the atmosphere! Therefore the conspiracy is true, the government is evil, the travel-around-the-world are bribed fakes, astronauts are evil nazis, NASA is lying, GPS manufacturers are corrupted (seriously.), satellites are imaginary", et cetera et cetera.

We know the Earth is round. It has been proven beyond a doubt, by photos, independent travellers, satellites, cameras, high-altitude planes, Earth's shadow on the moon, and so on. You can never prove otherwise by simply claiming that the sources are "IN THE CONSPIRACY", of which you made up yourselves.
I wish I could send you guys into orbit, so you could see for yourselves. But sadly I know that some of you are so desperate and in such a complete denial that you'd afterwards go on about how you must've been injected with hallucinogens, or how the windows must've been curved to decieve you.

And seriously. An Ice Wall, defended by guards around the world.
Fucking rediculous.

It's okay, you'll understand what points I'm making.
Denial of all [official] sources.
Acceptance of bad [youtube, FE websites] sources.
Rediculous theories [lol ice wall].
FET is equal to 2012 stupidity [all conspiracies are the same].
Facts that the earth is round [reality].
FE Proponents have no relevant education and zero credibility.
FE Proponents twist facts they do not understand [lol bendy light].
FE's are in complete denial.

Now start calling me corrupted and bribed by the government.

Incorrect.

Rediculous theories [lol ice wall].
It's spelled "ridiculous". Thank you for your feedback. It is most useful.

FET is equal to 2012 stupidity [all conspiracies are the same].
??? ??? ???

Facts that the earth is round [reality].
Lurk moar.

FE Proponents have no relevant education and zero credibility.
As opposed to you. I see.

FE Proponents twist facts they do not understand [lol bendy light].
Bendy light is an unverified theory. Much like my favourite, gravity.

FE's are in complete denial.
No.

Now start calling me corrupted and bribed by the government.
Why? Because you're trolling on an Internet forum and being bad at it? Now that would be SOME bribery going on here.

Denial by Calvin Kline.

March of the Penguins was filmed in a studio. Those penguins were probably animatronic replicas though, because the government can't afford to use large numbers of penguins except for feeding ice-wall guards.

Why are they guarding it? Nobody really knows except them. Once they started though, it would have been hard to stop - the knowledge that the governments of the world had been concealing a giant ice wall on a flat earth would throw the world into chaos.

Besides the obvious fact that he's joking here, where has he stated recently that the Ice Wall is guarded?  Please keep on topic, Crusty.

I've used geostationary satellites twice, both different ones and for a few months at a time.  They will outright say you're lying.  They don't care what the truth is.  There may be a handful of believers, but it's mainly all trolls here.

*sigh*

Moving them nothing.  Look at the initial quote.  

...nobody subscribes to the idea the ice wall is guarded anymore.

Note the final word in that statement.  I'm tired and not devoting any more time to the "troll dance" as Trollinator puts it, so I'm just leaving it at that and leaving this discussion (or this pointless interpolation from it, anyway).  If someone can provide a recent post suggesting that James currently believes the Ice Wall is guarded, I welcome it as a refutation of EnglshGentleman's post.  Otherwise you're wrong, and if you haven't realized it yet I don't see how I could possibly elucidate it any further, so I'm not trying.

What would that prove? If the post was one week old you would claim that James doesn't believe it any more.

James has posted his belief in the ice wall guards and their robotic penguin killbots and given that he is a highly respected scientist I think we should leave it at that.

Blah blah

Quotes were provided of him saying the ice wall is guarded.  Do you have a more recent one where he proclaims it isn't?  If not, then you're simply presuming his opinion's changed and he hasn't told anyone?

Come now Roundy, you know that James is one of the leading experts on the Conspiracy.  He has exposed the Satanic connection to the Aerospace industry and has named names.  If anyone outside of the Conspiracy would know if the Ice Wall was guarded, James would.

Lulz at this turning into an ice shelf topic. There is no evidence for its existence, thus we can assume it does not exist. With no evidence I really mean 0 evidence, there isn't even a shopped picture of a gaurded ice shelf. But oh, hold on a minute, let me put on my FE suit!!! Shoop da whoop:

I present you with (disputable) evidence of the ice shelf:

(http://i1044.photobucket.com/albums/b445/Nighteyes1/evidence.jpg)

That picture was taken from a large distance with a bad camera, the fact however remains that it is a picture of an ice shelf being guarded. The burden of evidence is not on me, for I am a FE'er atm.

Oh, btw, Truthiness, how does it make a difference when James posted it? The fact is he posted it, doesn't matter if it was recent or not. If however forum rules say that for arguments to be valid they have to be based on recent information, then your Mr Rowbotham is an invalid source, as would your "bible" "The earth not a globe" be.
