How has flat earth changed your life?

What influence does your belief that the earth is flat have on relationships, finances, career? Has it had a positive or negative impact?

What influence does your belief that the earth is flat not round have on relationships, finances, career? Has it had a positive or negative impact?

Positive, you learn not to argue with loonies.

Positive for the most part. There will always be folks there to attack you, but that makes it a good enough litmus test for people you'd want to hang out with anyways.

I'm new to flat earth but not new to the deception forced on us. It's been almost 6 years since my husband and I cashed out our birth certificates and got rid of our ss numbers and it has made all the difference. We are now financially better (no debt, we get to keep all our money) but mostly it was a moral issue for me, I no longer wanted to participate in a system that I feel has caused devastation to everyone in our world because we are all victims. That process has changed my life, I treat all people better, I'm thankful for so much, we've changed our life to it being about people and peace, not what we have or don't have. Do you ever get a sense of that? I personally believe that the earth could be flat but learning about this theory has taught me to only make choices by what I can see, feel, and process. I've discovered that I'm very happy just being here and no longer care where we came from or where we go. I see many people relate fe to religion, is that something that's changed for you? Sorry for all the questions but I'm very curious to see the changes people went through because of this.

It's good to know the truth, so that is a positive.

I get a lot more putang.

It's very sobering to see how delusional and irrational people can get.  TFES should not exist.

I agree. I think that having an open mind has only produced positive things in my life. I'm more tolerant, more respectful, less cynical, and generally much happier.

Have you noticed how angry the globularists are? I feel sad for them, sometimes.

We have to deal with you people, thinking that you know something about how the earth does or doesn't work and thinking that gives you the right to make fun of thousands or millions of experts and professionals, while you stubbornly ignore all evidence to the contrary.

I hope you appreciate the irony here. The fact of the matter is you don't have to deal with 'us people'. You chose to come here to talk to us. We aren't going into your schools, your homes, or your places of business shoving our views down your throat. You came to us, stubbornly ignoring all evidence contrary to a ball. And you think that gives you the right to make fun of us because you believe something different.

I fail to understand why you think your point of view and popularity of said view would take our right to a point of view away from us. Troubling indeed.

I chose to come here to try to talk some sense into you, hoping that you had at least a little bit of rationality left.  You have no valid evidence that the earth is not a ball; just unwarranted speculation and endless arguments about the horizon and other trivial things.  Don't you get it?  You have nothing!  You're wasting your life peddling a lie!  I'm trying to help you people, if you would just listen! 

The only "rights" we have on this website are the ones allowed by our fearless leaders, which happens to include making fun of NASA and other space orgs... and as John Davis just said no one is making you post here if you hate it so much.  The "experts and professionals" won't notice you defending them, they don't even know you exist.

People get angry when you question their beliefs so that is expected and I do see it on both sides. Whether or not you believe the earth is flat, it has no affect on the other parties life. I advocate for all people to stand by their beliefs because at least the subject is getting out there. I might see this situation differently because I no longer contribute to the funding of programs such as NASA so it changes nothing about my life. I think NASA should continue to explore whatever it is that they are but it should be with private funding, not taxpayers. I encourage everyone to go through the process if the feel like they've been deceived.

The "experts and professionals" won't notice you defending them, they don't even know you exist.

I don't care.  They deserve appreciation for their jobs, and I want to see that they get it.  I don't need any thanks; I just want you people to start being rational and listen. 

I can no longer travel anywhere. I have no flat earth map.

It made me realize that people can be stupid enough to believe in a flat earth.


Now ban me so I can't read the stupid bullshit on this website.

Not really.  You have it alright.  Ignorance is bliss, as they say. 

I don't even know what you're trying to say.

I think they should find a well known flat earth person and train him to go to the iss, that would hopefully put an end to the debate. Probably never happen but it's an idea.

That won't happen, because
A.)  Flat earthers are too irrational to do anything but get in the way,
B.)  nobody takes you seriously enough to do anything of the sort, and
C.)  even that won't convince you people, for the reason outlined in A. 

I'm trying to help you people, if you would just listen!

What a nice thing to say. I appreciate the passion that many have for their beliefs on both sides, it shows that this is an important part of their lives. While at this time in my life I'm not able to say or deny the shape of earth, I do find the topic absolutely fascinating to say the least and I enjoy reading others opinions about it.

To the OP, you said it was good to leave the money system as much as you could. You felt the system is causing harm to people. Well the globe system is set up to cause harm to people also. It feels good to withdraw from the globe mindset, because it is bullshit. You also can begin to see some of the other bs that tptb set before you. It is not just money or the globe it is many things.
