So? Is every planet flat?

A simple question really, i'd also like an explanation of whether or not stars are flat.

You should start reviewing 'Earth not a globe', the section titled 'analogy in favor of rotundity' for a simple explaination of this common fallacy.  You will also inevitably stumble upon more information to enhance your current understanding and aid you in future inquiries and rebuttles.

Ah, Archibald. My good friend for a long time.  You are right, Brother. An excellent response to his inquiries.

Yes, indeed......

Thank you good friend of what seems an eternity.  I do try my best without driving away impatient noobs.   I had just explained this in a neighboring thread.

Ok sir, thank you for the nice response, sorry for being a noob.  Obviously you can't actually provide evidence or facts, i do feel sorry for you.  After reading a few of your posts, it seems you have a habit of being a noob yourself. 

My brother and good friend, pay no attention to the angry noob.

Angry? I don't see any anger in my posts, stop trying to deviate from the subject of this topic please.  Thanks.

Brother Sean and long term friend, I regret to inform that if we continue our harmless salutations we may end up on the  suggestions and concerns board at the hands of such malcontents as Saddam Hussien and around and about, (who appear to be lacking comradeship in their personal lives).  As for noob hostility, did you not recently insult Tom F. Bishop?

Its what they call people that ask direct questions. Like how a politician handles a debate by answering your question by not actually answering it at all.

My friend of many years, we have been through a lot together. We must not dwell on past incidents and mistakes. The noob has been directed to where he can find the information he seeks. This thread is done from what I am concerned, unless he intends to analyze this information and ask questions in regard to it.

You can also review Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings, those are also two fictional works with as much real evidence as flat earth theory.

True brother, we have been through much together [Insert comment using intelligent words for effect] I do agree that cake is made with eggs and flour.

Please provide one proven bit of evidence which makes Flat Earth Spciety (200 members strong) more  believable than Harry Potter or Lord Of The Rings.

You will be waiting a long time i believe.

The stars are not flat.   At least not the ones we know about.  As far as an explanation, I doubt it will differ much from the round earth version.

Ok, the earth at least appears flat fromany achievable altitude, yet, I cannot see 'golam' frollicking around speaking incessantly of a 'precious'.

Definitely more so than I would like, unfortunately.  Much of us are civil though.  I'd just ignore the trolls/rude/jerks if I were you.  Or send me a pm if they break a rule and I'll discipline them.

Does Earth orbit count as an achievable altitude? From up there the curvature of the Earth is obvious.

Well, not for the average person.  Or even the majority of people in industrialized countries.  One has to travel above commercial airliner heights to see said curvature.  All attempts I've seen with balloons have shown such distortion it could just as easily be evidence towards aether or even a hollow earth.  Penn and Tellers attempt comes to mind on "... Tell a Lie" which if memory serves cost them 1500USD and 3 attempts.

One can also note the lack of widespread magic in culture, the lack of various humanoid sub-species, the lack of a lower earth, etc.

Lol, other people are rude, and yet Archie was not rude and was called a penguin.

Yes, but we must not let the mindless ramblings of insecure and ignorant malcontents thwart us in our efforts to restore what is rightfully ours by virtue of not logic, or reason....but right.  To rejoice, listen to ''siberian sleng teng'' by 'asian dub foundation' on youtube.

Distorsion doesn't mean the images are fakes or meaningless. If I showed you a picture of your house take with a fish-eye lense, would you say: "It's not my house? This photo is a fake! My house is rectangular!".

Of course it doesn't make it fake or meaningless.  However, it certainly makes them useless in determining curvature. 

I would definitely say that it is not my house, as it isn't.  But thats an off topic philosophical argument for another time.

Are you a liar now? Because I've been at altitudes high enough to see it. Astronauts have been high enough to see it. There are proven REAL pictures and videos.

Repeat. FET is no more believeable than Harry Potter or Lord Of The Rings.

The curvature is predicted within fet.
