Curvature and Satellites
« on: July 11, 2009, 07:55:31 AM »
I am sorry but i did not see anything in the FAQ that remotely answered my question about the curavture of the earth.  Also there is a thread in the general discussion that asks the same question that is unanswered.  Please answer.

Secondly, how can you say satellites do not exist?

As i expected you are suddenly not as fast to answer... your a bunch of loons do the world's gene pool a favor and disappear like Darwin would want you 2 :)

Your question was

It is apparent, and has been witnessed/photographed many times that the world is curved.

Please explain how the FE theory disproves this.  

and it IS answered in the FAQ, here (click). If we close a thread, it's for a reason; do not ignore this again or you will receive a suspension. Thank you.

I didn't see anything in the FAQ about things disappearing on the horizon due to the curvature of the Earth which I think is what his original question was about...

Then you have clearly not read the FAQ! I'm not a babysitter here to hold your hands and walk you thrugh it step by step- there IS information on these subjects in the FAQ, and thus it is apparent that you have not bothered to read it. Don't expect us to account for your laziness. If you have any further difficulty, I suggest visiting this website: www.rif.org

My lazynes?? There is no where that explains the appearance of the curvature of the earth.  Also i am not the lazy one, i do believe it is people like you that have not done an absolute thing to prove your own theory. 

As previously stated... Loons.

Q: "Please explain sunrises/sunsets."

A: It's a perspective effect. Really, the sun is just getting farther away; it looks like it's disappearing because everything gets smaller, and eventually disappears as it gets farther away.

UPDATE: The Electromagnetic Acceleration (aka "bendy light") theory is currently being developed and reviewed by members. Once completed, the theory of Electromagnetic Acceleration will be used as an alternative in explaining sunrises/sunsets and horizons. The theories of perspective laws and vanishing points from E:NaG will still be the accurate representations of the FET.

I was in the United States Navy for 6 yrs and 3.5 of those years I was on a Destroyer. I saw ships disappear over the horizon and reappear later in the day. I traveled from the west coast to the Indian Ocean and it wasn't in a big circle like that flat plate you use to show your seasonal changes. Yes I already read all your FAQ,s and non of them have any scientific evidence even remotely close to explaining to me your belief that the earth is really flat. I believe this society as you socall it is just a group of people who were abused as children. You were lied to about the tooth fairy, santa, the easter bunny and your dream one day of proving to all mankind that the earth is trully flat nomatter what. Well, good luck in your scientific search for the truth. By the way, for 3 million dollars you can get your own space ship ride with a Russian Cosmonaut, look out a window that won't be a tv screen outside and watch for yourself as you leave this planet.

The sinking ship is a known perspective effect. It has been found that a good telescope with sufficient zoom will change the observer's perspective and bring the ship's hull back in full view. This is not possible if the ship were really behind a "hill of water." Hence, the effect which is usually thought to prove the earth as a globe really proves it to be a plane.

It's one of the first and primary proofs of a Flat Earth. The fact that a telescope can restore a half-sunken ship demonstrates that the ship is not traveling behind a convex sea.

From Zetetic Cosmogony by Thomas Winship we read the following accounts of half-sunken ships which have been restored with a telescope:




There are also accounts of restored hulls in the book Cellular Cosmogony by Cyrus Teed:

It is an open secret that satellites do not exist, and that NASA instead deploys greycraft to monitor the population.
