You need better books.

Books that have real words in them.

For FE'ers to believe you, you would need to prove that you actually went to space.

So whilst they don't have to produce any proof of their ridiculous theory, I have to prove what I already know?

First of all, nobody really believes the earth is flat. It's a ruse to get people riled up. Unfortunately the creativity factor on this site is pretty low. "Read the FAQ" is about the extent of it.

It is not possible for a ship, or any type of rocket, to outrun the perpetually accelerating earth for any length of time. That much should have been obvious.

Yet you say that its possible for geocentric stations which must go along with universal acceleration and must overcome UA when initially launched up there.

Those geocentric stations are filled with helium. Due to buoyancy helium balloons still work on a Flat Earth.

Let's say that you take a plastic 1-liter soda bottle, empty out the soft drink it contains, put the cap back on it and dive down to the bottom of the deep end of a swimming pool with it. Since the bottle is full of air, you can imagine it will have a strong desire to rise to the surface. You can sit on the bottom of the pool with it, holding the string, and it will act just like a helium balloon does in air. If you let go of the bottle it will quickly rise to the surface of the water.

It turns out that helium is a lot lighter than air. The difference is not as great as it is between water and air (a liter of water weighs about 1,000 grams, while a liter of air weighs about 1 gram), but it is significant. Helium weighs 0.1785 grams per liter. Nitrogen weighs 1.2506 grams per liter, and since nitrogen makes up about 80 percent of the air we breathe, 1.25 grams is a good approximation for the weight of a liter of air.

Man, even when I read the FAQ it didn't occur to me that if the earth is continually accelerating, then we must be going pretty fucking fast by now. I can mathematically prove we are going faster than the speed of light. Damn, Einstein was wrong :D :D :D :D

You forgot about Relativity and frames of reference. Please consult one of the many other threads on the topic.
