If satellites dont exist...

and satellite tv/radio comes from radio/cell phone towers then how can my grandpa get satellite tv/internet in his mountain house but cannot get cell phone service for about an hour away? also he is pretty much secluded with 3 other people on the mountain and he is 1800 ft up.. and the nearest town is 40 minutes away

Place your bets ladies and gentlemen!
What will be the FE response?
A. Read the FAQ
B. Read Earth Not A Globe
C. Use search
D. No logic response about how its a conpiracy
Taking all bets!

I vote E all of the above

Read the FAQ. Carefully.

Read the FAQ. Carefully.

Oh! Answer A. won the bet! Our Big Lotto Winner is Dave Spotanre of Belfast Ireland! Congradulations Dave!

I only tell you to read the FAQ because you obviously haven't done so yet. Otherwise you wouldn't still be asking silly questions.

Q: "What about satellites? How do they orbit the Earth?"

A1: They don't, satellite signals come from radio towers.

You mean that?  There is no proof of this.  Period.  By the way, Dave from Ireland, be sure to call your local lotto center to collect your reward! Thanks for playing!

You're right, there isn't evidence for it. It's just a perfectly plausible explanation as to where 'satellite' signals come from.

Then telling us to read the FAQ is pointless.  Most of us don't believe in everything blindly without proof like you do.

In that case read Earth not a Globe. There are several proofs of the FE in it.

I have.  No proof.  Writes circles around itself like the FAQ does, ect, ect.  Also, it was writen a while ago.  That reminds me, any word of those ruffians from our colony over across the sea?  I hear they are trying to call themselves there own nation called "America" or something.

Ladies and Gentlemen, Tom Bishop's 22 step method to being a complete idiot!  Now with 20% more pseudo-science!

Notice how Tom can never explain anything for himself but instead just posts names of books that nobody is ever going to read because they are garbage.

Actually, I think you won't read them for fear of having your weak world view completely shattered.

I've read some of the over views of those books.  Same retard theories, just worded differently.  Plus, its easier to break a flat piece of glass rather than a solid sphere.

I've read Earth: Not A Globe. I swear it knocked a few points off my I.Q. in the process. I dare not risk reading any of the other crap incase the same thing happens.

Only two of those books come after space travel... SHUT THE HELL UP

lol historowned

Space travel doesn't exist. So it doesn't matter when the books were written.

Prove it.

The Earth is flat and accelerating upwards at 9.8 m/s^2. Please explain to me exactly how space travel might work.

Liquid fuel rocket.  Accelerates upwards.  Exits the atmosphere.  It can either A. leave its cargo in orbit to collect data or B. continue outwards into the cosmos to collect data.

EDIT: Still havn't answered my inquiry, have you?

How exactly is it supposed to enter orbit?

Please read some of these books then come back when you have:
http://www.cambridge.org/uk/textbooks/?subject=762

How exactly is it supposed to enter orbit?

All matter exerts a "force" that makes minute "dents" in space.  When two bodies are in space and one body is marginally bigger than the other, it "falls" into those dents.  Orbit can be caused by two main things.  One being and object entering the stronger area of the "dent" at an angle.  Similar to how a marble goes round and round a bowling ball on a trampoline.  The other, more theory-based, yet mostly proven, way is that a spinning of the larger object causes "creases" in the dent in space, causing objects to circle it, like a bubbles going down a drain. This can be seen in the orbits of moons around  the gas giants, as the moons orbit is almost parallel with the planets spin.  Any other questions?

All matter exerts a "force" that makes minute "dents" in space.

No it doesn't.

Sure it does.  Prove to me that it doesn't.  All matter, no matter how many quarks contained in each proton/nuetron/electron has mass.

Why? You haven't offered in the slightest bit of evidence to suggest that it might.
