Flat Earth General / Re: FE'rs also RE'ers

Not all FE'ers believe the Earth is 'round' in that sense.

Then they believe in another theory, the one that is believed in on this site: the earth is a circle with an ice wall surrounding it on the edges.

Flat Earth General / FE'rs also RE'ers

To be precise and correct,  RE'ers actually believe the Earth is a globe, not round. FE'ers believe the Earth is round, but in the shape of a circle. So 'round earthers should be called 'globe earthers'

Flat Earth Q&A / Re: please explain the FE theory to me

I am being hypothetical here with the book. I promise you if you want an actual book I will find it. I am talking about say a geology textbook or something to that effect that has like 5000 different proofs of the earth being round from evidence and theory.

Doesn't exist.

Dr Karl Kruszelnicki does have a chapter in his book 'Never Mind the Bullocks: Here's the Science, titled Flat Earth: The Truth is on the Horizon which explains how the Earth cannot be flat in many ways. Also, there is a book called How We Learned the Earth is Round, by Patricia Lauber Perhaps, Tom, you should do a bit more research and spend more time in finding these books, look some up in Google books search, I'm sure you will find plenty.

i mean the evidence the people have scientifically come up with aside from anctient writings from pre RE society

This entire forum exists to attempt to answer your question. Try reading every word of it, for a start.

I can't find a single piece of evidence, reasonable explanation or images on this entire forum, the only things I can find are people claiming companies, such as google, and the government are hiding the fact that the Earth is flat. There are several reasons why the Earth isn't flat, number one, why the hell would anyone go through all the trouble of pretending that they sent satellites and probes out into space, and why would they fake the images? What benefit would they receive from doing that? Number two, how is it that people can go on trips all around the world and still not fall of the edge of the Earth??? Finally, the Earth is made up of layers: the crust, mantle, outer core and inner core. If the earth were flat, wouldn't the liquid part of the Earth float away from it, or do you believe the Earth is a rectangular prism with crust on each of the six sides?

Please, for goodness sakes, do not answer my question with the highly unlikely theory that the government is covering everything up, I'm sick of hearing that rubbish. Please give me a straight answer with evidence.
