As per globe Earth scientific measurements?
You mean as per indoctrinated schooling that you followed and believed and basically followed the patterns schooled into you to gain what you already believed.
No, as per measurements.
You not liking reality doesn't make it indoctrination.
The idea of this is you can look at the model and test it, and see how well it matches reality.
As for other physical experiments do with Earth shape, I've done the usual. I've watched hundreds of ships and boats disappear over the horizon bottom first.
No, you haven't.
And there you go with wilful rejection of reality.
Plenty of people have watched this, confirming the shape of Earth, rather than merely beleiving what they are told.
Your pathetic lies do not chanege that.
You put far too little emphasis on atmosphere creating a block
Because that would produce a fundamentally different result.
If the atmosphere was blocking the view then the bottom would fade to a blur. The object would not appear to sink as it is routinely observed to.
You put far too much emphasis on doing whatever you can to pretend Earth is flat, to pretend an explanation works, while ignoring major aspects of it.
Like here, where you put far too much emphasis on the bottom disappearing and entirely ignore how it disappears.
If you were honest, and put your mind to it, you would realise that it isn't just the bottom being blocked from view by the atmosphere, instead it is the object appearing to sink and being obstructed from view by Earth.
But sure, keep spouting your pathetic lies to show just how dishonest you are.
Likewise, this would NOT create a horizon line. It would create a blur.
To get an idea of what would happen, just look on a foggy day.
This also means your crap about the sun is wrong as well.
Especially as the change in atmospheric density is quite small at the height scales required.
Nothing works because you've been handed one thing on a plate that's had so much shoehorning to make it appear to be what you're told you actually see.
No.
Nothing works, because the FE model doesn't work to describe reality.
It cannot explain so many things it isn't funny.
The RE model actually working, and being supported by countless people who have worked on it is not a problem with the RE model, nor does it make a FE model any more realistic.
You don't seem to pay any real attention to any possibility of alternates
And more BS.
The issue is just how possible they are.
Paying attention the possibility of alternatives doesn't mean just blinding accepting whatever delusional BS some nutter comes up with.
It means actually thinking about it and seeing how it would work.
Take your delusional BS for example.
We can consider it. Quite easily in fact.
You claim the air pushes things down.
However, the way air works is quite well established. You even admitted it.
Air pushes from high pressure to low pressure.
And the pressure gradient of the atmosphere is a quite well established fact as well.
The pressure is greater the lower down you are.
This includes around an object.
This means the air (or any fluid in fact) will push an object UPWARDS. Not downwards.
This means your model fails.
Us accepting this FACT does not mean we don't consider alternatives.
What it means is that we don't accept delusional BS which doesn't work.
And that is because we aren't desperate to reject reality at all costs like you.
It does change size based on atmospheric conditions
The change in size of the sun and moon over a 24 hour period is negligible.
What will change dramatically is the glare from the sun, but not the sun itself.
And the math is trivial to find out how much it should be changing size for a FE.
It's utter gunk to be fair, in my opinion, but you're more than welcome to follow the schooling.
And your opinion is entirely worthless as it is just wilful rejection of reality.
You cannot demonstrate any fault.
You cannot provide any evidence to refute it.
You cannot provide a viable alternative, nor can you provide evidence to support your delusional BS either.
You can't even commit enough to provide an experiment which would be able to distinguish between your delusional BS and the mainstream model, because you know if you do, your BS fails.
I mean anyone can make any model if they have all the instructions at hand.
And the question is if that model actually matches reality.
The RE model does. Your delusional nonsense doesn't.
I'd say the feeling secure comes from your side.
And just like so many things, you are full of shit.
The feeling comes from FEers, and other similar people desperate to reject reality.
They can't handle the universe being massive, and Earth being an entirely insignificant point in the vast cosmos.
They much prefer to think of Earth being the vast majority of the universe, with everything else being tiny in comparison.
This is also what leads so many people to cling to a god, so they can think the universe was made for them (or humanity in general), as well as several other things.
That is the safety blanket.
Accepting what all the evidence demonstrates is not a safety blanket. That is called being rational.
People still need to think to defend the RE and refute the FE.
Otherwise, we would just be saying you are wrong, without providing any explanation of why.
But we do provide an explanation of why, demonstrating we are thinking.
As above, by thinking about your claims, we recognise what air pressure should be doing and can explain what should occur in your fantasy, and explain how that doesn't match reality.
Us explaining why you are wrong, does NOT mean we are just blindly accepting schooling without thinking.
That is just more dishonesty from you, tying into your safety blanket.
Where anyone who doesn't agree with you is dismissed as an indoctrinated fool that can't think for themselves.
That way you can ignore anything you want, regardless of how wrong you are and how clearly the thing you are ignoring demonstrates that.
