Flat Earth Debate / Re: Prove me wrong

See Chapter 14 of Earth Not a Globe. Ships disappear from the bottom up due to the natural laws of perspective.
See these threads which cover this issue extensivelly and which show that the natural laws of perspective are gravely misunderstood my Mr. Rowbotham and that they cannot explain the sinking ship phenomenon (or better yet, of the sinking skyline phenomeon).

You will find that in all instances FEers took off without responding to the rebuttals which destroyed their arguments. You will also find that Tom repeats himself endlessly, despite the fact that his answers have been demolished as much as anything ever could be. Enjoy.
Oh and Daniel just says things for shits and giggles, don't think he's serious.
