I don't know what to say.... completely speechless.

I feel sad that you people might/may already procreate

I fear my time on this forum has caused my intelligence level to fall to your level

I feel that many people on this site are trolls (are you paid to do this? I don't know)

Those that are not trolling have a serious mental disorder (hallucinations of moon prawns or whatever) probably whering tin foil hats, please seek medical attention.

## A message to all sane people - the earth is round, the FEers on this site base their silly ideas on nothing more than fiction. They have zero evidence and back their ideas on makebelieve titles they gave themselves (moonshrimp scholar or is it bullshit scholar?) Move along there is nothing to see here ##

Ill think about how little you know of the earth you live on whilst I'm working, working at the job I got with my MEng 1st Degree in Aeronautical Engineering.

I suppose you did not pick up on the intended sarcasm.
Of course I did. The last line "This is an outrage" is a dead giveaway. Regardless, Verrine and Agnostic's identity theft is no laughing matter.
Scepti, this idiocy needs to stop and it needs to stop right now. You are making a mockery of this fine forum with your poor trolling. You are a complete disgrace.

If Verrine is using a picture that is not him, thats no more identity theft then the countless other posters who use pictures of other people for an avatar.  I for one use a picture of myself, as you can see, I am a respectful gentlemen.  Now  agnostic has used a picture and the name of the gentlemen in the picture.  You might say that is deplorable behavior deserving rebuke and ban, but Verrine is no more guilty of this than most people who post on these forums.   That rests on Verrine not being the man in the picture. 

Lets assume for a minute that the homosexual looking fellow employed bY Tom Bishop is actually him,  why not ban everyone who has stolen his picture and defaced it for their avatars.  No, they have not claimed to be T Bishop, but Verrine has not actually stated what his name is has he?  Just as you have not said you were the fat man depicted in your avatar, which can be found by typing in 'fat man at computer' on google.

You can't defend a murderer by saying that others have also murdered, therefore if he is to go away to prison then all the others must too. In this particular case, it has been brought to the forum's attention that Verrine and Agnostic are guilty of using a well established individual's face for their avatar, most probably without the victim's consent.
A ban and/or notifying the relevant authorities should be in order.

By the way, a fat man at the computer has no personal identity attached to it. My sentence shall be minimal.

     Have I defended agnostic?  He has employed a picture and the last name and first initial of someone who we assume is not actually him.  Verrine has attached as much identity to his avatar as you have with that heavy set gentleman you have exploited for your own personal enjoyment. 

    Yes, I do believe that rules should apply equally, if one person goes to prison for murder, then if others are committing murder they should be punished as well.  Lets not pretend Verrine has done anything serious, provided he is not the man in the avatar.  So far, the only person we know for sure who uses a realistic human avatar which is not actually the person is you.  There would have to be investigations into these new allegations, however with you, we could proceed directly to prosecution.

Verrine firmly believes that Moonlight is emitted by moonshrimp.

But,
Tom Bishop, a self proclaimed 'Flat Earth Proponent', firmly believes moonlight is light reflected from the sun.

FET is so flawed that even its members cannot grasp how moronic the idea is. RET on the other hand has no flaws, everything makes perfect sense and as such there is no need for alternate theories to cater for different people.

You cited an article on two scientists disagreeing over advanced particle physics, not the shape of the earth. There are no RE'rs who disagree about fundamental concepts of RET, like if the earth rotates or which continents go where. You will see no such consensus in FET.

They are arguing over what causes gravity. A fairly fundemental part of RET I think you will agree.

Basic things FE'rs disagree on:
Antimoon? no
Infinite plane or disk? disk
Sunlight reflected off the moon or Luna (aka moonshrimp)? no shramp, the moon is just shiny
Height of stars, sun, moon  3000 miles
How high is the icewall?   Few hundred feet
Gravity or no gravity? no gravity, UA
Do the stars have a gravitational pull? don't be silly, they are tiny
How far does the conspiracy go? ??? The most powerful people in the world are in on it. Others aren't
Boat of freaking dinosaurs? no, not for me thanks, I've just eaten
Alternate FE maps If it aint like the one below, it aint right

You'll find this to be a recurring theme here. You see, Flat Earth Theory is a fairly new idea, and it's a bit difficult to get funding to prove our theories one way or another. It'd be like going to the NIH and asking for grant money to study homeopathy.

Correct, homeopathy is just a silly idea as FET, expect that homeopathy has more evidence, or at least thinking, behind it.

See, my problem with that map is the width of australia. It is a 1.5/36th (1/24th) of the way around the north pole if you were to stay at the sam latitude. This means that the sun should rise about an hour earlier in Sydney than in Perth (1/24 away around the circle = 1 hour difference in sunrise).

However, according to http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/astronomy.html?n=240 and http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/astronomy.html?n=196,

On september 8th, noon will be 12:15 PM (+8) in Perth, and 11:53 AM (+10) in sydney, meaning that the sunrises are 2 hours 22 minutes apart.

Please refer to the lines of longitude to see how time zones work regarding the sun. Being as there are still 24, the sun must still take the same time to travel across Australia as RE says, must it not? It still straddles the same proportion of time zones.
