Narco's statement couldn't be any farther from the truth, I agree.

You would know about statements not being any farther from the truth, am I right?

So you have no answer to "what exactly do the stars do?"

They twinkle, silly billy.

But, isn't that followed by "How I wonder what you are!"

Narcberry says that FE gives only simple answers and has no inconsistencies, unlike RE.

That's right, Ion.
In other words, you still don't realise that "those little lights in the sky" disproves the North Pole centred model of the Flat Earth.

Yes, Ion say "Narcberry says" - but that statement carries no weight at all without evidence to back it up.

You claim "FE gives only simple answers and has no inconsistencies".
What utter rubbish, when you can't explain the simplest things we see around us!

You claim "no inconsistencies", then just explain to me how
          I can see the sun rise over 20° SOUTH of East, when at the time of the sunrise the "Flat Earth" sun is nearer the North East and
          I expect to see the sun set over 20° SOUTH of West, when at the time of the sunset the "Flat Earth" sun would be nearer the North West.
No, I don't want to hear about "bendy light".

If you complain that is "off topic",
         then explain the stars rotating clockwise about the South Celestial Pole, and no "Celestial Gears" grating around up there!

Did you take one solar path and apply it to all seasons? That's called a strawman, and it isnt how FET works.

No, I was giving a specific example of where the Flat Earth model is quite wrong. There is no strawman involved.

If you want to prove me wrong give some honest evidence of what the direction of sunrise should have been in Brisbane Australia from the Flat Earth model on November 16, 2016.

When I said "I can see the sun rise over 20° SOUTH of East, when at the time of the sunrise the "Flat Earth" sun is nearer the North East" I meant literally that. And I had a compass to check it with, the direction was actually closer to 22° SOUTH of East.

If you can't do that, just admit you are wrong again!

If you want to prove me wrong give some honest evidence of what the direction of sunrise

Sunward - as in, "towards the sun." Seriously, did you go to public school or something?

When I answered this before I forgot I was replying to the Master of Strawman Arguments, yes Mr Narc has an MsSA.

Just look at this, what a classic of the Strawman Argument!

Every few years, RET keeps changing the position of Australia on their map. 600 feet this way, a couple miles this way, sometimes moving it hundreds of miles - just to try to keep it accurate with the round earth theory.
You make utterly ridiculous and completely unfounded claims like this. The "600 feet this way", as you know very well know, was in 1994 when many countries adopted a new mapping grid. Nobody ever suggested that the original maps were wrong.
 Then your completely idiotic "a couple miles this way, sometimes moving it hundreds of miles". Nuff said.

Quote from: narcberry
Their reason: it's floating away.

Aside from the absurdity of a giant mass of silicates, iron, and other heavy metals floating across the oceans - don't you RE'ers get concerned that your maps are never accurate?
Then just ridiculous, meaningless rubbish!

Quote from: narcberry
FET has no such inconsistencies.

Then to top it off "FET has no such inconsistencies",  ;D what a joke  ;D, as I pointed out in the other post the Flat Earthers don't even know the rough layout of the continents,  so they wouldn't know if their map was miles out.

Then you cap it off with "That's called a strawman, and it isnt how FET works."  Most on this site do not work that way
but Mr Narcberry, that is clearly the way you work, so you are an arch hypocritic as well.
Have a nice day, but don't expect us to believe a word you say.

Sunward - as in, "towards the sun." Seriously, did you go to public school or something?

Since I was giving directions in degrees, it might have been obvious to even you that I was asking what is the compass direction in degrees East of North.
Is that understandable to even you?

Now some answers please! I guess if you'do rather Discworld terminology I could  accept degrees right of "hubward"!

No answers yet, guess it's another Vaiiant Victory for the Glorious Globe!

See, I'm learning!
