Actually last I checked in my part of the world there's at best a negligible difference between the two, and all I can really personally do with the unsophisticated equipment I have to work with is approximate.

How did you come to the conclusion that there should be negligible differences between the two maps for your area?

Cuz they don't look that different.  Certainly not to any degree that I'd have the means to test meaningfully.

???  So where did you get the accurate FE map?  I've been looking for one for almost 2 years now and I haven't found one that was anywhere close to accurate yet.
Have you personally tested this?

 ??? What accurate FE map?  I was referring to Chris's projection here, which is unfortunately all we have to go on.
Where did you educate the biology, in toulet?

Ahh, so FE'ers are still relying on RE maps to get where they want to go.  Carry on.

It's not the southern hemisphere, it's the lower left quadrant of earth. I believe we should keep FET and just change the T from Theory to Truth.
What are we but ourselves?

I laugh at your stupidity.

No. It is the southern hemisphere.

Go play devils advocate and troll somewhere that doesn't make you look stupid.

You're either a troll or you have IQ that would shame a glass of water.
It was Tom Bishop that said those ridiculous things, he is the ultimate foe in regards to FE trolls.

the earth is round.



there is no, i repeat NO!! logic, that proves the earth is flat. If you believe otherwise youre a fool

Responding to the OP:

I believe this an entirely reasonable request.  In my time here I have had no one tell me any valid experiments to validate FEH (I have already posted my critique of EnaG, and my main point went completely unchallenged even by the likes of Bishop), and so it should remain under that name until the requisite experimentation has been performed.

I know Lord Willmore often says that he believe in Flat Earth because of the observations he has made, which is completely sufficient for an hypothesis, but I believe that a variety of rigorous tests must occur before the evidence of an hypothesis can be integrated into a theory.  Even if the experiments mentioned are to be considered valid, they are not nearly enough to make Flat Earth a legitimate theory, especially because I read none which investigated into such things a Bendy Light, the EA, the nature of Dark Matter, or any of the other vastly important tenets of the hypothesis.

In short, I agree that Flat Earth is a hypothesis, and that the FE'ers would do well to design and perform experiments not just to re-validate those already done but to discover the true nature of the many unobserved parts of the Flat Earth assembly.
