Correlation between Round Earthism and bad grammar?

Hehe nice typing mistake. I want to help 'prove' the earth is flat, I made the mistake of telling some people at work about this place and now they all think I'm an FE'er so I end up arguing with them from the FE side! This place has messed with my mind!

duude... This isn't good for the brain...

(edit: some spelling errors)

Yeah it isnt. I think I need a coffee break before I lose my brainpower completely. Catch you later.

Do some work!!

Only got about 500 words left to go, cut me some slack Kasroa!

Oh Francois has run away now where shall I find my fun?

Fun can be found all over this website!

Yeah but its a bit quiet at the moment and Marie has left me and you haven't come to talk to me

What about the correlation between Flat Earthism and bullshit?

So far I have not observed such correlation. Most bullshit I have seen, has come from REers (see my sig for some instances).

Your sig shows several statements of opinion.  This does not count as bullshit and you have failed to provide any evidence again.  Typical FEer.

A religion requires faith and a belief system, which is not true for knowing that the Earth is round. Therefore, it isn't a religion.

Your faith is the faith in pseudo-science. Your belief system, well... it's plastered all over this board.

FE faith is merely just pseudo-science and speculation.

Can I get a say in this?

I, Francois Tremblay, of the Infinite Plane, am offended at this remark! I demand you apologize!

the fact that you're anti-christian suggests we are aligned

And yet you support the Round Earthist religion?

"Round Earthist religion?"... this is a pretty funny statement.  Religions are based on faith.  Theories are based on scientific exploration and logic.  If you can't accept the earth as a sphere, than at least have the objectiveness to see it as a theory.  There is certainly not more evidence to support the Flat Earth theory (and please note, I'm trying to be kind here) than that for a sphere.   To say Round Earth Religion really just demonstrates ones ignorance and closed mind.

Certain aspects of alchemy is a science, which helped determine the chemical properties of elements.  If alchemists were to use particle excelerators, they can turn certain elements into gold.  Of course, the use of these particle excelerators would not be considered alchemy.

Of course, my beauty.  You are honored to state your say.

I was being glib.

What about me? Can I say something?

You are not answering my initial question. How come half of the Round Earth fanatics on this board can't spell at a high school level, but virtually all Flat Earthers can write just fine?

Personally, I'm for writing as best we can regardless of the media we are partaking in, however it seems to be largely acceptable practice on the net to take short cuts and worry less about spelling and grammar.  And, what is the English language, but centuries of changes due to acceptable practice.  It's been an evolution its entire existence, often with many modes of acceptable use.

So to answer your question, it would appear that FE'ers are much more anal in regards to grammar around this site, yet grammar does not necessarily correlate with logic.  An aptitude towards science and math does not always relate a care to perfect language.  Hope this clears up your question.

Of course! Its not like I am pointing a gun to the head of your avatar.

But the real question is: Can I say something?

Unfortunately, I don't have much to say. 

Correlation =/= Causation

Are you suggesting the lack of proliferation of pirating is causing global warming??? LOL  Damn, I never made that connection before...

Wait, why would you say that? You are, aren't you? Aren't you?!

How come half of the Round Earth fanatics on this board can't spell at a high school level, but virtually all Flat Earthers can write just fine? It doesn't seem like Round Earthism is correlated with basic intelligence or education...

Why are Round Earthers filled with hatred and vitriol, but most Flat Earthers stay very calm? It seems like the Round Earth fanatics have something to prove.

Well for one, writing skills don't display total intelligence.  Two, I've seen some FEs who aren't exactly the greatest at the English language and could be compared to your generalization.

For the second part, I must say that I, as a REer, remains relatively calm in situations.  I have yet to insult someone outside of the Angry Rant section, which I go to post if I've got nothing nice to say 'cause thats what that forum is used for.  As for some FEers, I've seen some low blows by them also, some coming from you, some without provocation.

Now on to answering the questions!

1. Some are here to troll, some are here to debate quite quickly, and some just make accidents. Then you have those who can write to the point where only Grammar Nazis attack (not pointing any fingers.).  Also, you do have your equally bad FE, but I'm sure you have ignored that for the purpose of this thread.

2. Humans are a very opinionated species. We don't like others to think diffrently and thats why we get religous wars and all that good stuff.  I find your questions biased and ignorant of FEers who get mad and insulting, as both groups can get really mean and mad.

Haha, hes pointing a phaser to you head.
