Way to go with the ad hominem attacks, really shows your maturity. Also they did have the technology, it's called doctoring photos; this technology has been around almost as long as cameras.
The atmosphere exists due to the properties of a spherical earth. Scientifically the atmosphere or atmolayer couldn't exist in the same sense with a flat earth, with no gravity and an upwards force of the earth moving upwards there is nothing to keep the atmosphere from spilling over the edge as such.
There is nothing to keep it in? Where did you find this information?
The atmolayer contains the same properties as the atmosphere. Are you suggesting the atmosphere is magical as well?
The fact that you are arguing in every thread for it suggests so.
Arguing against an idea automatically makes me believe the opposite? So if I were to engage in an argument where someone claims cars are perfectly safe, and I say that isn't true, I automatically believe cars are dangerous? What kind of poor logic is that?
That's like saying if someone put a potato in front of you, despite it looking like a potato you would refuse to believe it was in fact a potato because every body else does think it's a potato. It makes no sense. You are arguing that you believe the FE theory just because everyone else believes another. Not because there is any actual proof of it.
No, I would not refuse it. I would, however, understand the possibility of it not being a potato.
And who said I believed FE theory?
Or that some people aren't sheep; or aren't fallacious. I don't know, you choose.
It's fake.
I hope that clears up some confusion.
But in regards to empirical evidence, the only way to provide an immensely high probability for the Earth being round would require first-hand observation from space, and even then, probability isn't 100%. So I'd like to know through what experiences you've come to assume the Earth being round.
It doesn't look spherical at all, it looks flat. If it was spherical, it would be brighter at the centre than at the edges. Like this:
This is what a sphere looks like to our two dimensional human eyes. Notice how there are dark areas slowly shading into light areas.
Now go and take a long, hard look at the Sun. It doesn't look like that, does it?
Until evidence of many of your theories is shown, i.e. photographic, scientific data, film ect ect then it remains an unproven hypothesis, to which there is much more evidence against.
Photographs and film generally isn't considered scientific. However, clearly the flat Earth idea is unproven. I don't think anyone on this site has ever tried to communicate otherwise.
Then again, that's really not the point of this site and it's unfortunate that many people don't get it.
LOL
That made my laugh...
There's a simple way to find out if the plane is going slow or fast.... (shhhh... don't tell anyone, is a secret)
LISTEN THE ENGINES OF THE PLANE!!!!!
Sorry, I didn't see that you were talking about km, and not feet (we normally discuss altitude in terms of feet her, so forgive me). In any case, these are just more unsubstantiated claims.
Unless you have flown via concorde or in high-altitude military jets, you cannot possibly have seen the curvature of the Earth. Even if the Earth was round, you would have to be at an altitude way above that used by commercial airliners today to observe the Earth's curvature. I think 60,000 feet is the approximate figure given, but I'm not sure.
Needless to say, that means you definitely cannot observe said curvature from the beach. That's not just the viewpoint of Flat Earth Theory; RE scientists will tell you the same thing.
