I think it might be round

I am having doubts. My research has not been conclusive so far, and round earth is starting to actually make sense. Maybe I am just being overwhelmed by the mainstream brainwashing, or maybe I've been listening to the roundies on here too much. I am losing my faith.

Do any other believers suffer from this?

There is a difference between accepting and having an open mind.

I thought you were told by the Master (or whatever you called him) about the new worlds to be revealed on the plane?

If so, you are either crazy...or definitely right. Nothing anyone says here will change that. You are either correct or insane.

P.s. don't base your beliefs on faith. use facts. be willing to revise when more information becomes available.

You are either correct or insane.

That's a false dichotomy.  A few other possibilities include:

-She or he is lying.
-She or he is being coerced into saying these things.
-There was an elaborate rouse put into place by Itchy_Arris' "friends" that is making her or him believe that the earth is flat.

This is just what I came up with while typing.  The path to Flat-Earth Theory isn't as simple as, "taking the one less traveled."  It's a wondrous journey of learning and truth that can't be broken down into simple binary switches.

Yes ezpecially early on in this new belief. The brainwashing is not easy to discard.

Follow the evidence,  and  question everything.

The dichotomy was predicated on IF he had been told these things by the Master.  Because I said "If so,"

If Itchy is having fun, or lying, or being coerced etc. then the premise would be false and the two choices would not apply.

If Itchy actually believes that  he was told by the Master  about the revelation of the new lands in the infinite plane. I believe those are the only two likely possibilities...though I guess the Master could be just screwing with him... so I will concede that is a third possibility....or the Master is wrong......or the Master was coerced, by the supreme master....who himself may have been duped by the SUperSupremeMaster (with a cherry on top)

But since we like simple empirical observations with little assumptions:
If he is telling the truth, he is correct or crazy. (but we know he's just playing)

Let's look at it this way.

99% of the population accepts round earth. Flat earthers believe that they know more about basically everything than the 99%. That's also what sceintologists believe, along with those who believe that they are jesus or that obama's a lizard. And the obama lizard people are just as legitimate as the flat earth people, have just as much evidence, and are as convinced.

Do you see now, itchy? Maybe you're not the one of the few lonely superior geniuses in the hordes of stupid, unwashed plebians.

It's not about being a genius or being stupid. It's about being able to think outside of the rigid indoctrination we have all received.


Who the feck is the The Master? Wasn't he a Dr Who villain?

And that's what all the other wack jobs think. They all have the same exact conviction as you. What sets you guys apart?

Sorry. You called him the Controller.

This guy literally admitted he was trolling before.

I have these feelings a lot.

This guy literally admitted he was trolling before.

Yes, and I explained that as I attract a lot of attention, I have to throw my stalkers off the scent sometimes.

tired of trolling already? Well you almost made it 2 months.

Do you have any proof for this assertion or is this just how you feel?

It's an extremely rational educated guess

If you had had any education and any experience at all you would "know that the earth is round" and absolutely no reason that you would "think it might be round."

It's ironic that The Flat Earth Society forum put doubts in my mind; shows how roundie-dominated this place.

Don't worry though, I'm back to my old self.

It's flat as a pancake!

Based on what?  In my industry, we call that "tummy feels."  You are basing your information on how your "tummy feels."

Do you have a better estimate?

The entire world is exposed and taught 21st century science. There is no evidence that a substantial amount of people chose to ignore it.

Isn't that exactly the rational behind FET. The earth feels flat.

"It seems odd to think I could be spinning at 1000mph so I must not be..it just feels that way."

Well shit. There goes my raise.

Can you at least tell my NASA supervisor that I convinced you? I have a wife and kids too.

Yeah I'll give you a good report.....for a cut of that NASA cheque!

If there is a god-the earth is flat because god is reasonable.
If there is no god there earth could be round.

And I was just about to congratulate you for having an open mind...  Don't think of changing opinions as loosing or doing what "they" want.  That's the problem with conspiracy theories, those who believe them can't think strait because they think that even considering the other side is loosing in some way.  If you keep an open mind and consider the other side then if your beliefs are really true then your opinion shouldn't change anyway, so there is no harm in doing it.

Meanwhile how about you contemplate how sunsets and time zones could exist at the same time on a flat Earth.

It's "losing" not "loosing".
