And that logic is more sound than you think.  But 'the Earth is flat until proven round' doesn't work because it has been proven round.
Really? Could you please present this proof?

Lurk moar.
Your inability to provide evidence for your claims renders your point moot. Another win for FET!

There is so much proof I don't know when to start.


Benjamin take your pick! Take your PICK!


Photographs from space.
curvature
During a lunar eclipse the shadow of the Earth is round
You can see all the planets in the solar system are round, why should we be any different?

And much more!

Please tell me... Please tell me which type of evidence do you want to see?
I have photographs of dragons, are they now real?
Prove it.
That's not the Earth's shadow.
Earth is not a planet.

This is rich coming from a Flat earth believer telling a RE believer to prove something? You Flat earth believers are hypocrites.

Yes I set you up there.

FET has never provided any sort of proof to back itself up.  FET does not win.
I have photographs of dragons, are they now real?
No, you don't.  Any photographs of a mythical creature would not be photographs.
Prove it.
It's been proven.  NASA.
That's not the Earth's shadow.
Yeah, it's the motherfucking antimoon, yet another thing you have no proof of.
Earth is not a planet.
Yes it is.  For it to take any other shape is physically impossible.

Failure to provide evidence for my claims?  I thought that was FET's motto.  Things you have no evidence for:

UA
Antimoon
Bendy Light
Sun's Size
The shadow during a lunar eclipse is "not Earth's"

Shall I go on, or just claim this a win for RET?

Not only is that astoundingly irrelevant, FET does not, necessarily, need proof. The Earth appears flat at our local level. We assume it is flat until evidence is provided otherwise. Please provide this evidence.

All of that is not only irrelevant, but wrong. There is evidence for all of those things accepted in the standard FE model.

Give it up guys, you can't win.

This forum is home to FET.  Nothing you say, do, prove, disprove, or backup with first hand video will have any sway over any FEer so long as it goes against their claims.  You're dealing with trolls, devil's advocates, or bigots.  In any case, debate is possible but winning the debate is impossible.

Your inability to prove that the earth is flat and always back away when the question gets ask makes you look like a hypocrite and a retard. Why should I prove anything if all you FE do is say conspiracy?

I'm still waiting for the Flat earth society to actually back up any claims they are made.  Which I asked on the first day I joined.

Quote from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photograph
A photograph (often shortened to photo) is an image created by light  falling on a light-sensitive surface, usually photographic film or an electronic imager such as a CCD or a CMOS chip.

How does a drawing of a dragon fit that definition?  Don't tell me, let me guess;  you're going to say that it was a scan of a drawing which could possibly fit the definition.  However, what evidence to you have that the dragon picture was not entirely generated within a computer?

Photograph:
An image or painting in which the subject is a physical object that was directly in front of the camera or painter as the image was being created.

Dragon:
In the context of the discussion, a biologically living creature as defined by this that expels fire from it's mouth using it's own body and no extra mechanical source, is a member of the reptile family, and is a quadruped.

So... let me get this straight.

I ask a FE'er for evidence of a Flat Earth (like I asked Vongeo when he said there were still things I had left unproven), and the FE'er (Vongeo) is somehow deemed the winner.

A FE'er asks me for evidence, and when I tell him there is evidence everywhere (like Vongeo suggested), the FE'er (Ben?) is once again somehow deemed the winner?

You guys are wackjobs.  The burden of proof should be on you.  Throughout history the burden of proof has consistently been on the new theory or idea; not the old, established one.  We should be sitting here discussing why the RET is wrong; not why the FET is right.  The only reason you don't accept the burden of proof is because you know there ARE no flaws with the RET.

You guys have been incorrectly arguing your case since Day 1.

Trolling makes me angry.

Not a properly established idea?  Have you been living in solitary confinement your entire life?  Of the 6.7 billion people living on this Earth, the vast majority know/believe the Earth is round.  How is that not a properly established idea?
