Google Earth and cartography
« on: April 28, 2007, 07:25:49 AM »
Cartography is amazingly accurate to be a hoax. You decline maps as RE maps, but you travel with the help of maps, because they are accurate. What proof( besides that it is a part of the conspiracy) do you have that those maps are false?

FE cartography doesn't really exist.  They hardly ever mention that according to FE theory, the southern hemisphere/hemicircle would be about twice as large as the northern. Everything south of the equator would widen dramatically.  Ever wonder what happens to time zones in FE Australia?

im a scientologist and the flat earth was described in our holy book very discriptivly. what happens is that measurments of length actually get shorter as you go more below the equator. to that what looks like a meter could actually be two. that gives the apperence that it doesnt widen when actually in fact it does.

Now I ask you, who could argue with that?   :o :o

But you give the hoax posting away with the "below" the equator.  A real surenuff FE believer would say "beyond."

Ah right! So space physically alters itself in the southern hemisphere. So what, I'm actually 12 foot? Awesome!!!

From an engineering standpoint it isn't impossible.  It is from a textiles standpoint.  =)  But there are already great strides being made towards developing a fiber that is thin and strong enough to act as the cable.

If the earth is a globe it would be impossible to accurately represent a sphere onto a flat surface.

But since the earth is flat is becomes extremely possible.

You must be retarded or something. That isn't a FE map, it is a RE map. And a FE map is the one that is impossible to create, thats why noone created it. Actually you made a good poin. If the earth was flat, it shouldn't be so hard to make an accurate FE map

*wraps head around this one*
Let's simplify this FE argument!

1. Maps are very accurate since any normal person can use a map and verify that it works.
2. Maps are flat (that is, usually they are printed on paper)
3. One cannot accurately represent the surface of a sphere on a flat surface
4. Thus, since our maps are accurate, the Earth is flat!

But then of course when you navigate with a map in your day-to-day life you're usually working on a very small scale. So in that case flattening a spherical map doesn't lose much accuracy. And then you've got to remember that the Mercator map is widely accepted is being a gross misrepresentation of the Earth since, in keeping the latitudes perfectly straight (for navigation purposes), it blows the continents way out of proportion. That's why we have the Peters Map:


Or the one in sokarul's post.

So your proof is that it's easier to map a flat earth? Jesus, Tom, that wasn't even funny. Where's Narcy? I need a laugh.

Eh?  It would be impossible?  Just peel a globe and flatten it by pounding it with a hammer.  Or just make a projection:
Explanation of Projections
Or just use a globe.  Are you saying a globe is about two times smaller than it is supposed to be (talking ratios, don't be like "there thousands of times smaller :p)?  For me globes are pretty accurate.
