Darkness and daylight for weeks in Alaska

If the flat earth model is true in that the Sun revolves above the Earth's surface and acts like a spotlight, how is it that some parts of Alaska have constant daylight and darkness for weeks on end? In case you don't believe this, here's a link explaining it:

Imagine the Center of this being Antarctica and the Outer Edges Being the North or Alaska.

But how does that explain the period of total darkness each year, along with the fact that some parts of Alaska have different periods of light and darkness?

Well besides the light moving in a circular motion it's pulse also gets stronger and weaker throughout the year and moves on a epicycle which is much more noticeable the farther North you get.

Look at the left Picture to see what it's like vs the Right Picture which isn't making any stable patterns.

Gotcha. So what causes epicycle's Sculelos? What causes that wild orbit?

derp.

Yeah, that's the problem.

In order for anything you say to be true..........you need to imagine. Because it's not real.

If you cannot imagine something, it will never BE real.  Visualization is the first step in achievement.

The first step in achievement for you would be to read a book. Maybe start with Dr. Suess and work your way up.

I've got to hand it to the FEs for their skills at sheer inventiveness.  An answer for every question.  And all at the drop of a hat.

Now we have a sun describing epicycles (instead of a circular orbit) and pulsating (instead of a steady light).

One wonders what new physical manifestations will pop into the sun's existence tomorrow LOL.
