Pictures from space

Very good EnragedPenguin this is exactlly what I wanted a FE'er to do.  Present a picture of the FE, and then open it to scientific scrutiny.

Here is my evidence that the above photo is fake.

I have testimony from the man who composed the photograph:

Is this an acceptable picture of the Flat Earth model of the universe? Anything too big? Too small? Should Antarctica even be there?

Therefor, we can dismiss this as evidence that the Earth is flat.

My turn.

Please present the evidence that makes you think this is fake.

I can't. That's not the point.

Well then what is the point, EnragedPenguin?  If that photo really is faked, it shouldn't be hard to prove.

I think you'll find it is the point; science works by falsification, we've given you a myriad of evidence to try and falsify, you've given us nothing but poorly designed hypothoses. Now obviously, the earth can't be both a globe and flat, so in order to prove that iit's flat you must first falsify evidence presented to you by people who contend that it's round.

Note saying "It's part of the conspirisy" dosn't count as scientific falsification.

Well then what is the point, EnragedPenguin?  If that photo really is faked, it shouldn't be hard to prove.

The point is that even if you gave me ten thousand pictures of a round Earth, and I somehow showed that they were all fake, it still wouldn't mean that my pictures of a flat Earth are real. If I gave you ten thousand pictures of a flat Earth, and you managed to prove them wrong, that does not mean your pictures of a round Earth are real.
It also doesn't mean that there aren't any real pictures of a flat/round Earth.

If you give me a picture of a round Earth, the fact that I can't prove it's fake doesn't mean it's real. Same applies if I give you a picture of a flat Earth.

Enraged Penguin, you are a fucking retard.

Yardstick, it's always a pleasure when you grace the forum with your half wit remarks.  Your effort does not go unnoticed.

If I gave you ten thousand pictures of a flat Earth, and you managed to prove them wrong

go on then, we won't mind giving you reasons why your flat earth photos are faked....why do you mind giving us reasons why RE photos are faked?....


oh


right......you can't

If you give me a picture of a round Earth, the fact that I can't prove it's fake doesn't mean it's real. Same applies if I give you a picture of a flat Earth.

If a photo of a flat earth cannot be proved to be fake, and all photos of a round earth are proved fake then I, and hundreds of millions of people around the world, would believe in a flat earth model. However I have yet to see a single picture of a flat earth from high altitude or space, but have seen many of a round earth. It appears you have your work cut out.

All RE photos have been clearly shown to be fake, so there's not really much point bringing them up yet again.

Where have they been shown to be fake? Prove the ones taken recently by the students launching their own rocket into high atmosphere (see the thread "space for £1000") were fake. AFAIK nooone has yet proven them fake. Here's your chance; take some pictures of a flat earth, and let us REers have some direct observational evidence of you FE hypothsis.

these kids KNEW the earth was round and still had the drive to do something fantastic like this.....flat earthers have EVERYTHING to prove and haven't got a slight human urge to see something for themselves, it's within their grasp to change the world's perception and perhaps bring down goverments...


but what do they do?


...fuck all

That whole event was obviously staged by the Government.

I'm not sure I respect people who lie about their personal beliefs to make a point. If I showed you a picture of a flat earth that you could not prove fake, you would not believe the earth was flat. You would say - rightly - but there are thousands more pictures of a round earth!

This lie has been repeated in number of forms, and it is bothersome.

I hope he's lying, anyway. I would hope that wouldn't be enough to convince anyone of Earth's shape.

Proove it.

Well we obviously don't have proof, but it makes a lot more sense that the government was involved than it would that a bunch of college kids fake RE pictures just for the hell of it. What motive would they have for doing that?

The simplest answer isn't always the correct one.

That's funny, because one of the most recurring and consistent arguments on behalf of RE is that the simplest answer is always the right one.

So you're saying it's impossible for my phone to ring and fall to the floor instead of someone taking it and drop it there?

You're asking the wrong person.

I don't think simplicity should have any bearing on the validity of an explanation.

I'm not lieing; re-read what I said. I said if you could show me a photo of a flat eath wich couldn't be shown to be fake *and* proved all RE photos fake, then I'd believe in a flat earth.

It makes even more sense that the pictures are real, and the world is round; why not lay out £1000 of your own, and take your own pictures; if you can show the world is flat, you could change the world and shake modern science to it's very core.
