Why the Earth Cannot Be Round

Give your reasons, FE'rs! Why can't the earth be round?

"Because of the mountains of evidence"
"Please link to this evidence"
"We have a search engine, use it."
"But I can't find it"
"Wow, you're ignorant"

You forgot, "Because the way I interpret the bible, which was passed down word of mouth for hundreds of years, then translated a few times, says it is, sorta"

Anything? Anything at all? Come on up folks, there's no charge!

I'm honestly depressed. Given the huge amount of moving goalposts, problems and disagreements in flat earth hypothesis, why is round earth theory not accepted as true? I guess you guys are just the .0001% that go against the flow.

Isn't rejecting the apparently hole-free RET in favor of FEH a bit like taping rubber duckies to your car to go to Spain instead of taking a plane? Someone rebut me, seriously.

It was a good try bud, but they have been exhausted from rehashing the same failed reasoning over and over again.  It is their own fault though, they keep on using the same failed logic.

the hydraulics of water. Proves the earth is flat.

Please explain.

Yes please do.  And not just that water will be perfectly flat on top if it was in a bucket.  This too could be mathematically proven to actually be curved in the very very small scale since water is "pulled" towards the center of the Earth. 
The reason it doesn't look curved to your eyes at the beach is because of the size of the Earth in relation to you.

I fear Lovyballs is right. It's because the water surface is not curved in a bucket.

Phuck the bucket , lets go with a half full  big olypic swimming pool instead & truck load  of bricks . Now I would like you  to place that truck load of bricks in the centre of the pool & then tell us all what happend to the water. Then shift them to each end of the pool & tell us what happend to the water.

25mx50m & thats right the water rises" level" . No mater where you  place the bricks in the pool . The hydraulics of water proves the earth is not spherical & there is no curviture.

I feel a little dumber having read this.

How much variation would there be over a 50m length given the radius of the earth?

I calculate the curvature of the water surface to be  0.196 mm  over a 50 meter length. 

You could actually measure this with 2 precision engineers levels and a laser interferometer.   I have heard of people making earth curvature corrections when setting up large  precision machine tools.

So  which side of the 50m pool would you be measuring . Right or left ? & which end of the 25m ? Or are you going to take these's measurements centre.  You could actually measure this with 2 precision engineers levels & a laser interferometer. Really you dont say mmmmmOr we could find a hay stack & go looking for  imaginary neddles .

Either end, you choose.   I have some renishaw gear, nice stuff,  but my laser interferometer is a HP 5525B and with the straightness optics you can measure a deviation of 0.024 mm over 50 meters.  But there is an easier way,  you could just get a Talyval differential level.   zero them at the same place and then move them apart 50 meters, they will then show the angular difference caused by the earth's curvature. 

Mahr Federal also make differential levels that would easily pick up sub arc-second resolution.

That experiment would not only kill the flat earth theory but would also sink the concave earth theory..   

Well, I think you may have broken charles.  He flew off into a haystack there.
So charles, why does adding bricks to the pool, basically displacing volume and causing the pool's level to rise, disprove the Earth's curvature?

I think you need to go & read the white paper  & then go & have a better think about your claim.

zero them at the same place ? Your joking right ? Or you haven't thought it through .

The fact that the water does displace evenly & the water rises at the same level at even rate .

The difference is too small to be noticed by eye. Take a grain of sand 0.1 millimeters wide and another 0.09 millimeters wide and see if you can tell the difference.

You have to ask theses clowns how their determining their right angle in the first place . Then how their determining their  altatude  in correspondence with that right angle . With out that you cant determine jack shit. The laser being "wave freqencey " can only give you a - + value tolerance .

Hey Techros. A lot of the people on the forum don't really believe in FE theory they just like to make fun. But actually they are working for the NASA, trying to undermine our work. The space station and program is a  big conspercay run by the OBoma. He hinds his stuff in the mountains tha he builtd to hid it. All mountaisn went up about 40 years ago by my reconing. Some are hollow and hind the Obomas, others are just green screens put up by the government and the socialists. He is a obomuinist mountain being built https://www.google.com/maps/place/Pyramids/@30.0526027,31.5453304,385m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m2!3m1!1s0x14583e6c185717df:0xd7bf55bc9d7eeff3

The only real mountains are mount Sinai and mount Rushmore. Stop the lies stop the Obomsa stop the mounatins
