formation of Earth

I think scientists generally believe that the planets in our solar system 'accreted' together gradually from the dust and gasses caught in the suns orbit. As accretion progressed, the gravity of the planets grew and the bigger planets got bigger still etc.  Do flat earth believers have many theorys on the formation of our planet? If so, what is the most accepted one? Thankyou

The most widely accepted theory about the creation of the flat earth is that the turtle shat out the earth and farted the heavens.  That's why the heavens seem to hang above us, they're just gas.  The turtle liked the earth so much that he wore it on his back as ornamentation.

Some people believe there are four elephants involved, but I think that's ridiculous. 

lol thanks.  Anyone else? I imagine that if people seriously believe the planet is flat, then some serious thought must have gone into how it would have formed.

Erm...I don't know...

The UA was created from the Big Bang...

The planets are regular.

Earth...I don't know.

There isn't a flat Earth formation theory, yet.

I think Tom said it was formed by the centrifugal forces acting on the Earth of spinning material.

I'm not sure though.

This is one of the topics that has been asked repeatedly without any response (as far as I have seen).

Is that Tom's personal theory? That's pretty vague anyway, I'd want to hear more about it.

Everyone of Tom's theories is his personal theory

LOL, he's about the only serious FEer.

I don't see l0gic nor Singularity.

You're in the symbols, since your "S" is some sort of Arabic symbol or something...

Ah, I see. Thank you.

I'm surprised I'm not getting any real input on this. I would have thought it would be an obvious topic for discussion. 

The Flat Earth was formed by a combination of Magic, God and Tom Bishop.

Yes, but it's been discussed to death and there ARE NO answers for you!

i did make a thread on this aswell. and FE do not have a answer to why the earth is such a different shape.

doesn't say much for flat earth theory then

Guess how big the research budget for TFES is.  Oh, wait, what budget...

and you would think that such a theory with all its "proof" would get lots on funding. Oh, wait, what proof

It wouldn't matter how much 'proof' TFES has.  Even if they had an unimaginable amount of evidence supporting the theory, no one is going to put dollars into researching a FE after 'knowing' the earth is round for their entire lives.

what about when the world thought the world was flat then found out it was round ? they did the exact thing u just said they wouldn't do , its happen before !

the fact is, if this theory really had as much proof as it says so it would be widely accepted. full stop.

But, in this case, TFES is up against NASA which has been spreading lies for decades.  Kind of a different situation.

If you have a great deal of proof as to why the Earth is flat, then why do you need lots of money to come up with a plausible theory of the Earths formation, and it's place in the universe? I would think that the formation of the planet and how stars and how other start and planets form,would be one of the main reasons for believing in whatever shape the Earth is.  

Knowing what shape the earth is and knowing how it became that shape are two completely different things.

yeah but if it's formation doesn't make sense in your model then it's an important think to know about.  I'm not saying that a flat Earth couldn't form, but I would have thought it would be something that scientists who believe in a flat Earth would spend a lot of time working on.  You don't know everything Nasa says is lies anyway,that's a belief.  Just like I believe the results of Rowbothom's experiments were probably fake.

We don't know if the formation makes sense or not as we're not sure of how it formed.  There aren't the resources available to go doing research into how the earth was formed.

Nor do you know the earth is flat yet you come up with theories and proofs for it to be so. Why does no one speculate as to how. Einstein formulated the special theory of relativity on the wage of patent office employee.

Err, wouldn't 'proofs' of a FE let us 'know' the earth is flat?

yet if this "proofs' can convince you why can't they convince the scientific community ?

Convince me? lol
