The motto - IN VERITATE VICTORIA

Does everyone agree with that statement?

IN VERITATE VICTORIA = In truth is victory.

Round Earth vs. Flat Earth: who is winning in 2013?

Round Earth.

who is winning in 2013?

'Victory' is not a gerund.

2013 will be the year of the Flat Earth.

I hope this flat earth thing becomes more popular, I think the first step in finding solutions to problems like this is creating awareness.

Round earth hands down.

If FE wants to get any where they 1 st need to get a coherent model together. And the
. Actualy start doing experiments for real and publishing results through the proper scientific channels.
 Instead of quoting dead people who performed thier dubious at best experiments over a hundred years ago.
As far as this society goes your all a bit lazy or just don't realy believe.
Go out and get research grants, do experiments publish your results.
Make a map that works. Infiltrate NASA. Do something. Rather than just moan in the Internet.

Round earth hands down.

Unfortunately i can't agree.
Fe'ers have the Total Absolute Unbeatable Weapon. A thing that Re'ers never will have. A thing that will allow to survive all the fucking conspiracy raving theories. I mean this one:

True. It's astonishing how stubborn some REers are.

yeah is funny what the unanimous consensus of the entire scientific community. everything in the observable world matches a round earth.

yeah is funny what the unanimous consense of the entire scientific community. everything in the observable world matches a round earth.

What is consense?

consensus

In that case you're wrong.

care to elaborate?  or are you going to continue your low content postings?

I'm part of the scientific community and I know the earth is flat.

how are you part of the scientific community? any evidence to back that up? as a scientist you must appreciate the need of evidence to back up a claim.

whats wrong with the motto?
It is very Zetetic.
Here's hoping that we can get enough Zetetic's back to change the FAQ to reflect Zetetism.

'Victory' is not a gerund.

You're exactly right, Lord Wilmore!  I shouldn't have said winning.  Because to most people on this planet this was settled long ago.  And the shape of the Earth is history.  Truth won; move on.

I'm part of the scientific community and I know the earth is flat.

Being a part of the scientific community is about evidence. The mere fact that you are saying that you "know" the Earth is flat without a single piece of peer reviewed evidence, and knowing full well that there are tons of scientific evidence to the contrary, shows that you are part of no scientific community.

As am I. Kind of. Still in school.

Exactly. There is more evidence for FET than for RET. Therefore, I am forced to conclude that FET is the more likely theory.

There is more evidence for FET than for RET.

I suppose that depends on your definition of the word "evidence".

I agree that RET is a more sophisticated theory with seemingly satisfactory explanations for most phenomena. However, this has less to due with reality and more to do with popularity. It's little more than an incorrect assumption made by scientists who build their theories around it.

And that's the problem for FET.  Incorrect assumption or not, the RET explanations for most phenomena are more satisfactory than the FET explanations for the same phenomena.  Until FET can provide better explanations for these phenomena, FE'ers will have a very difficult uphill fight on its hands.

Now, just get some peer review of that evidence. Then I will be in total agreement that you are a scientist, and that you belong in the scientific community, whether you have finished your school or not.

I looked for a peer reviewed paper showing that the Earth is round. I couldn't find it.

I looked for a peer reviewed paper showing that the Earth is round. I couldn't find it.

So did i, and couldn't find it. In addition, I found not a single peer reviewed who deny that the earth is flat.

The liver is the largest internal organ in the human body. Scientific fact.
Now try to find a peer reviewed paper that states that.

This isn't the peer reviewed paper but the pictures are prettier, slide 4 is your 'money shot' as it were.

Also FET isn't really a theory it's a conspiracy. There are pictures of the Earth from space on t-shirts, disbelieving this is a straight choice not a result of any kind of empirical measurement.

Do you work with neutrinos? Can you confirm they pass through the earth if you fire them at the ground?
Also do you know Prof. Brian Cox?

In Veritate Victoria means "In the truth, the victory".

The Conspiracy is not the point of FET, nor is it universally recognized. In fact, it is not a facet of FET at all, hence the fact that we only discuss it in FEG.
