I'd love to know when there was an eclipse that couldn't be predicted using FE methods, if you'd like to stand up to your own scrutiny.
The level nature of water is inconsistent with a spherical earth. Or how about the rotational velocities of certain galaxies? So inconsistent with a spherical earth universe that they had to invent 97% to explain this and expansion. Woooh boy. That's a lot of the universe to know nothing about while still trying to claim you know anything about the universe.
We know how to predict eclipses because we know the relative size, velocity and distances of the sun and moon relative to the earth. Explain to me how FE eclipses happen, please. The geometry of them, and the relative size and position of the moving parts.
Water ISN'T perfectly level. It looks that way because a human observer is incredibly small compared to the Earth. We cannot see the curvature terribly well that close up. If you took the perspective of a speck of dust on a bowling ball, the local area of the ball occupied by the speck would look pretty flat to the speck.
Numbers: Earth has a mass of about 5972000000000000000000000 kilograms. I weigh about 60 kg. This means Earth is about 10000000000000000000000 times larger than me, to get an idea of the scale involved. The fraction of the Earth we can observe with our eyes at any one time is such a small portion of the whole that it looks flat to us locally, despite the fact that it is not.
I also fail to see how the rotation of a galaxy could be inconsistent with, or even relevant to, the shape of the Earth. Something about physics? Perhaps I am missing something important, and I would like to hear you out on the subject.
And you're suggesting 97% of what, exactly, is made up? And on what grounds? I do not understand this. But there are many things I do not understand, so this not that unusual.
