Good news though. We're playing the Falcons this week. Might be a W coming our way. Amirite TiMSport ?

In this day in age of technology and mass wealth. The world literally has millions and millions of millionaires and billionaires with massive amounts of boredom, curiosity and disposable income (so much so that one billionaire is literally building rockets to go to Mars!). These countless wealthy people (not even counting the countless conglomerates, public and private organizations, institutions and corporations) have direct access to the world's best planes, drones, boats, navigation, GPS, etc etc. There's all manners of 4K video capturing devices and live streaming capabilities.

HOW is it with this vast amount of motive, ability, and resources the combined world's people has, from every single corner of the world; that not a single person has ever filmed OR streamed themselves reaching the limits of our flat earth from ANYWHERE on the entire planet at ANYTIME in the history of the modern world???!!? This is for me undeniable proof that there is no limit to Earth because we are on a "ball-Earth" and everyone that has tried exploring the limit of this "ball-Earth" embarks on a futile exercise of chasing their tail in circles around the globe. What other explanation can there be??

My personal favorite is the literal army of people necessary throughout the last several decades needed to doctor every picture ever taken from space. Mad photoshop skills. Even before photoshop. Think about all of the models they must have made and painted, and images sliced, diced, and overlaid. It’s amazing. I can’t even make a ten slide PowerPoint briefing without pulling my hair out. And I’m paid really well to do that.

It's very simple. In a nutshell, they don't give a flying f**k about the truth. All they care about is belonging to a tribe.

sorry, just couldn't make myself read this whole thread so probably someone else has already marveled at the math that would be required to get a 200 ton unpowered object to orbit a flat planet….

All the surviving members of the Flat Earth Society are on the top side of the earth. The ones that live on the underneath side of the earth eventually fall off and become assteroids.

That is clearly the trajectory of the curve looks way too curvy, therefore, by reversing it, it’ll level out. Hence, Earth is flat.

Obviously all aircraft are fitted with special glass that just gives the impression that the Earth is round...

Yes, there are people believing anything. And yes flat-earthers do exist.
They have a website and all: https://www.tfes.org/

Unless of course the object 'orbiting' the Earth is stationary & the Earths surface is moving below it

I can't speculate on the global nature of flat earth theory and anecdotal evidence reveals nothing except the single experience of one person. However I've had some experience with these folks....

I have relatives that are flat earthers and I love all of them. Many of us have had lengthy discussions with them and near as I can summarize their position seems to be in defense of young earth creationism beliefs. Some other key observations have been:

• The bible is infallible.

• They tend to be skeptical of any media, government or university claims as propaganda to lure people away from biblical concepts.

• Since they function in a world where physics always performs consistently but they still have to make exceptions for radical episodes where physics and biology would not function along natural laws they subscribe to some or all of these various ideas of alternate realities:
1. God can alter all natural and physical laws at will including your perception of it so basically we live in a form of an intelligent simulation.
2. God lives in multiple dimensions and just moves things around to skirt universal laws of physics and nature.
3. We may already be dead and Earth may be a form of purgatory.

So, near as I can tell the whole enchilada is protecting the biblical story. At least in rural East Texas it is. Can't speak for the rest of the camp.

Wait I must have missed this - where does the Bible say the earth is flat?

I'd wager the response is, it doesn't say its round either.

Genesis 9:12-13. That's the first time He changes the physical laws.
