There is no cruise line offering cruises around Antarctica. That in itself should torpedo (geddit) your main argument. It is no more difficult to circumnavigate Antarctica than it is difficult for an ant to crawl around the rim of a dinner plate. The only question is, "why?". The weather is very treacherous towards the edge of the disk - that is not just a "coincidence".
hello tinfoil person. What sailing around Antarctica would tell you is that it's a much shorter trip than the flat earth models would lead you to believe. Your comment about the weather is even more stupid than you not realizing what sailing around Antarctica would accomplish but flat earthers don't appear to understand much.
Be nice to the new guy, rottingroom. You suggesting that the trip would be shorter is not exactly proof that it would be shorter, now is it?
It would be if I took the trip but I'm not inclined to because I'm not a paranoid schitzo who thinks there is a global conspiracy. If you think there is a conspiracy then YOU should take the trip and prove it to yourself. The Flat Earth Society's claim that the burden of proof is on round earther's is bogus as the burden of proof lies on you to prove to yourself! Especially since the proof has been supplied but you lot just reject all of it. That's your problem, now go figure it out for yourself definitively and personally if that's what it's going to take.
If I said that Bigfoot exists and you said it does not, which one of us would be capable of actually proving our side? The burden of proof is on the positive side, not the negative one.
yeah but there isn't a pro side or a negative side here. You are making a pro assertion that the earth is flat as much as anyone else makes the assertion that it is round. The only difference is that round earthers have evidence.
Yes there is. If I say Bigfoot exists, then that is a positive statement. If you say he does not exist, then that is a negative statement.
JROA... FOLLOW THE WORDS.
In the bigfoot example, yes I agree the one claiming bigfoot exists is making a pro assertion and therefore has BOP.
In round earth vs. flat earth, both are making pro assertions, both have BOP.
But, this is how it goes in the round vs. flat debate:
Round Earthers supply evidence from a multitude of credible sources and supply photographic evidence as well. They also show videos and articles of experiments with proof that it is round. Flat earthers just deny all of this.
Flat Earthers provide no evidence and offer only wild speculation. They cite their own senses as evidence even though there is good empirical evidence that suggests the earth is round. In the cases where empirical evidence SEEMS to indicate the Earth is flat round earthers are able to provide ample explanation of where flat earthers have gone wrong but they continue to deny it like a kicking and screaming baby.
