So is this some kind of religion you guys have? Groundless theories backed by no evidence?
Nuke all of Australia, and then it won't be an issue anymore.
1. The Conspiracy. The idea of a spherical Earth dates back to earlier than ancient Greece. In fact, most people have believed that the earth is round for millennia now. To propose a conspiracy that would hold for millennia without any faults is unfathomable.
2. The seasons. Although the FAQ explains that the seasons are caused by the change in the radius of the sun's motion. Okay, but why does the radius change? What force causes this motion and how is it approximately periodic?
3. The stars. How does the FE model explain the motion of the stars? In particular, the circular movement of the stars and why different constellations can be seen at different latitudes? Also, what is the explanation for supernovas?
4. The planets. How does FE explain the movement of planets through the sky? Importantly, explain the retrogression of planets (as the year goes on, the planets move through the sky, but periodically, they move in the other direction, forming a small loop) and the precession of the perihelion for Mercury. Furthermore, explain eclipses of planets, like the recent movement of Mercury in front of the Sun. Finally, what about the moons of the planets - like Io of Jupiter?
5. The sun. Where does its energy come from to produce light?
6. The horizons. In, for example, the Great Plains, one should be able to see effectively forever on a clear day. However, this isn't true. One can only see to the horizon.
7. Earthquakes. What causes earthquakes in this flat earth?
8. Magnetism. In the Round Earth theory, the center of the earth is a flow of plasma which creates a circular current which causes the magnetism of the Earth. How does FE account for this? Also, how does it account for the occasional flip of the poles?
9. Gravity. Please explain variable gravity - the acceleration due to gravity is different depending on one's location on earth and altitude.
1. How do you explain Maggelan, who circumnavigated the globe and discovered the southern route around the americas?
2. I assume you believe the moon landingf was faked. Why?
3. Have you tried to circumnavigate the globe yourself? If not, how can you say for sure?
:mrgreen:

Not quite sure about that, but your avatar does.
Well, the fact is that Australia doesn't really exist. Everything you have ever heard about it was made up, and any pictures of it you have seen were faked by the government. I am sure you have even talked to people on the internet who claim to be from Australia. They are really secret government agents who are surfing the internet to enforce these false beliefs.
so then were is the south pole?
lol. 42% would be their life on it. Assuming that half of those are REr's being dumb.
Nearly 100% of the earth's population has believed for THOUSANDS of years that the earth is round. This must then imply that any conspiracy that upholds that belief has also been around for thousands of years.
lol, my views are not ridiculous, they are the views of basically every australian...never heard an asian or indian telling an aboriginal joke?!?!
online rpgs make me laugh.
i have an odd sense of humour.
