So where is this 'Ice Wall'
« on: June 24, 2008, 01:24:11 PM »
Correct me if I'm wrong but there is absoloutely NO evidence of a wall of ice that surrounds the whole Earth.

Just saying 'It's a conspiracy, the government are stopping us from reaching it' is not evidence, nor fact. So don't say it is either of these things. It's wild speculation with nothing to prove it. How could they possibly stop us from reaching it? And no one has ever seen any evidence of armed guards or anything.

 It's beyond the North Pole. (Although most people think it's in the Antarctic region.) In theory, it's impossible to get to. People have tried to get to it before, but none have probably made it to the Ice Wall alive.

So, my point remains valid, there's no evidence of an Ice Wall, so therefore we can't assume there is one?

As I said, there's no evidence of that. You can't just say it because you BELIEVE it to be true. It's wild speculation.

Gravity, because the Earth is a SPHERE.

This is where I seriously doubt this "Flat Earth" theory...

It's foundations are based soley on speculation.... not any concrete facts.
Is there any proof of the governments conspiring?
If there is, I would love to hear it :)

I don't think an icewall is necessary for a FE, if that was your concern. That I tend to lean toward the idea that there is one, does not make it required.

So if there wasn't a "ice wall", how would the water be kept in?


You guys say their is no gravity... so... :-\

 No, on Flat Earth, an Ice Wall keeps it in.

An amount of DE sufficient to accelerate the earth would be sufficient to hold in the atmoplane and oceans.

The water is kept in by the 150 foot Ice Shelves and the landmass of the Antarctic Rim.

How do you know its 150 foot high when it's guarded by "conspiracy guards".

The Inner Ice Wall exists at the water's edge and is analogous to the Ice Shelves which sit at the Antarctic coast. They are not guarded. The shelves are widely known and widely studied. Hundreds of people visit them every year.

The Ice Shelves were discovered by Sir James Clark Ross, a polar explorer who was among the first to venture to Antarctica in an attempt to determine the position of the South Magnetic Pole. Upon confronting the massive vertical front of of ice he famously remarked

    "It was ... an obstruction of such character as to leave no doubt in my mind as to our future proceedings, for we might as well sail through the cliffs of Dover as to penetrate such a mass.

    It would be impossible to conceive a more solid-looking mass of ice; not the smallest appearance of any rent or fissure could we discover throughout its whole extent, and the intensely bright sky beyond it but too plainly indicated the great distance to which it reached southward."

shoud it not be notistleble that the FE artic is biggen that the RE artic.
And when you go around the artic, should it not be notistleble that the shape is diferend?

"Inner Ice Wall" from what position of observer?

Some people believe that there is a Greater Ice Wall which sits tens or hundreds of thousands of miles beyond the Antarctic rim in the uncharted tundra of ice and snow. However, this wall is entirely hypothetical. Man has only been about two thousand miles inland of the Antarctic coast. No one has reported such a thing.

What exists beyond the antarctic rim is anyone's guess. How far the ice extends; how it terminates; and what exists beyond it, are questions to which no present human experience can reply. All we at present know is, that snow and hail, howling winds, and indescribable storms and hurricanes prevail; and that in every direction "human ingress is barred by unsealed escarpments of perpetual ice," extending farther than eye or telescope can penetrate, and becoming lost in gloom and darkness. Some even hold that the tundra of ice and snow stretches forever outwards eternally.

Why should they allow people to take pictures of them, and put them on the internetz?

I've never said such thing.

But posting a picture that is directly conflicting with your own conspiracy theory is...well, plain stupid.
