Whats wrong? Einstein's theories, or the explenation of gravity and falling off the planet?
Einstein's theories are based off of the Round Earth model; you have to remember that. His theories are
theoretically correct on a round Earth model, but on a flat Earth model, they're incorrect.
For an analogy, I could construct a theory that proves that if the Earth had no gravity and no force pushing down that everything would start floating. Now, obviously, on a "no gravity Earth model" it would work, and it'd be fully correct. However, if you go back to the reality, which is the "gravity-prone Earth model," things still fall, because there
is gravity, whereas I was proving something based on the fact that there
isn't gravity.
To address the example that you used, you say that the person would be moving twice the speed of light away from the Earth. Well, think about this. What is that relative to? The Earth? You can't base something on the nothingness that surrounds the Earth, therefore it is safe to assume that--while technically the Earth is accelerating up by the force come to be known as "schmavity"--really, the base that must be referred to is the Earth itself. To place the relative point anywhere else wouldn't make sense, since everywhere else in the universe is, in actuality "nothing."
So, basicly, my question is, why do you non-religeous FE'ers believe the earth was formed this way? Thanks.
Well, a while ago I came up with the idea of a Flat Earth Genesis. Basically, this proves how the ice-wall was formed and why it's there.
So, at "the beginning," the Earth is simply a large chunk of ice with some (a crapload) of dirt underneath it. Now, the sun is just a large ball of heat, basically. When the sun comes into orbit with the Earth, guess what it's going to do? Melt the ice. Now, since the sun orbits around in a circle, you can see that it is never directly above the sides (where the ice wall is) and it is also never directly above the center (north pole). So, those places are still largely frozen, and the ice wall, which was never melted, keeps all of the water that was melted from the sun's rays, inside, creating oceans. Also, this is obviously how the Earth's landforms were formed.
For example, note how sand is a very soft, loose form of rock. Then look at granite and other hard stones. They pack together very well. Well, when you have a bunch of sand and dirt (loose rocks), around a bunch of granite and other hard rocks (packed rocks), the sand and dirt is going to be washed away easily, while the harder, more packed rocks will stay. The loose stuff is washed away, while the harder stuff stays strong. This can make high mountains, low deserts, and many other landforms.
