So, I have read this forum for about a year now, and been amused by the back and forth.
Question for the FE'rs that I have not seen pop up and is not answered in the FAQ or Wiki:
What is the evidence that the discoid earth has its center upon the north pole? Every "map" put forward by proponents of the Flat Earth shows that the center of the disc is the north pole, and that lines of longitude radiate therefrom. What evidence do you have that this is true? This seems pretty arbitrary, if the earth is a disc, then couldn't it just as easily be centered on the south pole? What is the compelling evidence that this is not so? If nobody has in fact seen the ice wall, why is the ice wall not thought to be polar as opposed to antarctic?
I have seen two versions of FE map, each one is just as rubbish as the other one:

They claim a north centred map simply because most of the posters on here are in the northern hemisphere, and thus it's easier to pretend there is no stellar rotation around the south pole. The map with both poles on it can be dismissed because the distances between stars would need to increase and decrease throughout the night. And that doesn't happen, so that alone is enough to kill that map.Even the north centred one is flawed. People in South America, South Africa and Australia see stars rotate around three different South Celestial Pole. That kills the map too.
This is a Q&A forum and I have yet to see a single reply from an FE'r.
This is a Q&A forum and I have yet to see a single reply from an FE'r.This is more than common on the Q&A forum. It's possibly because we REs ask the sort of questions the FEs have no meaningful answers for. I posted some relevant questions HERE (http://bit.ly/13MRPwV) a week ago for iWitness (a verified FE) and he chose to avoid addressing them.

It's quite ironical actually that the moderators here often ask us to post questions in the Q&A forum—rather than the general debate forums—but then totally ignore answering them. I'm guessing that this is just a ruse to shift our questions on to the back burner, where they can be quietly ignored until they hopefully slip off the radar.
Maybe this Q&A forum should be retitled "Unanswerable RE Questions"?
;D

I haven't been on this website as long as a lot of others, but it has been my experience that the so-called flat earthers have no evidence and most threads "slip off the radar."
How are any of these responses Flat Earth Questions or Answers? Guess what? FE'ers get sick and tired of having to wade through all of the RE responses, put downs, one liners, and low content posts in the FE Q&A section and these make it hard to even bother responding to a legitimate question. I am going to finally put my foot down and start banning the permanoobs who think it is funny to disrupt the FE Q&A section repeatedly, even after receiving warnings. Don't be surprised if your little jokes get you some time off. All of those individuals whom I quoted above, consider this your final warning.
My theory, is JFK was heavily involved in the early space program, and after finding out the earth was flat he was considering telling the public... but that didn't sit well with other world powers, and you know what happened next. RIP last great President.
ausGeoff, your questions are directed at iWitness. Whether or not he chooses to answer your questions is up to him/her.
Finally, can I take it that you've given me a "final warning"? And if so, may I ask for what specific reason(s)?
Thanks for the link jroa; read and noted.Finally, can I take it that you've given me a "final warning"? And if so, may I ask for what specific reason(s)?Please see this (http://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=61846.0#.VKC7crCA0) thread for an explanation.
Q1. What credible evidence do you have that proves JFK was "heavily involved" with the space program? What does heavily involved mean exactly?
Q2. What evidence do you base your claim on that JFK was "considering" telling the public the earth was (purportedly) flat?
Q3. Why weren't any of the other confidantes of Kennedy silenced as well? Hundreds of technicians would've also been aware of it.

One of its proposals reads: "The only people allowed to answer questions are flat-earthers or people giving genuine flat earth responses".
Are you now claiming that my questions regarding the JFK assassination (in response to a FE comment) are inappropriate for the Q&A forum?QuoteQ1. What credible evidence do you have that proves JFK was "heavily involved" with the space program? What does heavily involved mean exactly?
Q2. What evidence do you base your claim on that JFK was "considering" telling the public the earth was (purportedly) flat?
Q3. Why weren't any of the other confidantes of Kennedy silenced as well? Hundreds of technicians would've also been aware of it.
And can you please tell me which forum to post these questions on (for the fourth time LOL) would be more appropriate, or explain why not one FE has attempted to address my questions? There's really not much point in REs posting legitimate questions here if no FE is prepared to provide any sort of answer, other than simply sidestepping the thrust of the thread.
Why are you bringing up JFK questions here? At best you're woefully off topic, at worst, you're arguing with moderation. If you want to complain about moderation then do it in S&C. If you want questions about JFK in regards to a flat-earth, start your own thread.

Good luck waiting on a response on a 2 1/2 year old post. Did you not read the warning in red text that said your post was more than 120 days old when you hit the reply button?

It's even in red so guys like jroa don't have to read, and can carry on just looking at the pictures saying they understand.
What is the evidence that the discoid earth has its center upon the north pole?Easy: The sun goes around the north pole.

Next shilly question?

How else SHOULD the true form of the earth be displayed???
My question for the shills: Why do you care?
