Just admit it: because Flat Earthers cannot grasp the complex mathematics behind rotating three dimensional spheres they've made it flat.

Who have made "it" flat? The flat earthers, or the people behind the complex mathematics?

Why would "the people behind the complex mathematics" make it "flat"?

I'd say the earth has never been "made flat", but has been a Globe for much longer than human history.
Does anyone have any proof to the contrary?

Who says they don't understand complex math.  I see a lot of different interpretations and attempt to find a model that their hearts tell them is true.  I disagree but I get it.  It has nothing to do with understanding math & science.

Yes, indeed they are. Shalom and welcome to the trenches.
The Bible doesn't support a flat earth.

Scripture, facts, science, stats, and logic is how I argue.

Which one? Algebra and trig were a part of my education, got an A in both.

My education dealt a lot with the behavior of mechanical waves, particularly sound waves, and things to do with them like the Doppler effect. So, yeah. It was also a requirement (straight trig class) before I started my degree-specific classes (which included 3 different physics classes).
