Question for Flat Earthers:

submitted by iSnark to flatearth 3 weeksApr 8, 2024 16:51:33 ago (+1/-0)     (flatearth)

If the Earth were a flat, why did people in different areas see the eclipse at different time?

It stands to reason that IF the Earth were flat, everyone would have seen the same eclipse at the same time.

No it doesn't...

The Sun is wildly different than what you've been conditioned to believe. The Earth isn't floating in space, neither is the Sun, neither is the Moon. By your logic, I'd imagine, you'd ask, "If the Earth is flat, why isn't it just day all the time?" Well...same reason, the Sun and Moon aren't floating in a huge vacuum like you've been lied to about.

Did you know that there's never been an experiment that has shown the Earth is moving? More than that, (((Einstein))) himself said that there couldn't be any experiment done on Earth that even can prove the motion of the Earth...https://www.youtube.com/live/bV79M0X4CnM?si=oRNqkZbD6DiUYVwQ&t=1680

Correct.

Why can everyone south of the equator see the exact same stars rotating in the same direction around the same fixed central point in the sky due south of them if they’re supposedly all looking in different directions?
Why are the distances between degrees of latitude uniform and don’t grow exponentially away from the equator?
Why does everyone on Earth get the same result for the Eratosthenes experiment, when people nearer the equator should get a much smaller circumference for the Earth than those nearer the poles?
Come to think of it, was Eratosthenes part of the “round Earth” conspiracy?
Surviving records show that the ancient Egyptians and Mesopotamians based their astronomical forecasts on calculations assuming the Earth is a globe. Did this conspiracy begin at the dawn of civilization, or are all ancient artifacts nothing but Victorian forgeries? If so, why has this never been detected by modern carbon-dating techniques?
Why do arc lengths of given angles of longitude decrease rather than increase south of the equator?
Why does the sun not rise in the northeast and set in the northwest, year round, for everyone on Earth?
Why DOES the sun set, when the law of perspective states that the angular size of the sun’s altitude, like everything else, can’t become negative?
Why does the sun’s angular size not change throughout the day or year, since it is “moving toward and away from us” and is “closer than we’re told”?
Seriously, did you fall asleep during geometry class, or are you just completely demented?
If you believe in zeteticism, why do you keep relying on magical and unprovable solutions, which can’t be shown to exist with your own eyes and clearly don’t exist at all? Apparently, zeteticism is just code for “make any old bullshit up and pretend it’s true.”
If all photographs of a round Earth are a hoax, why not simply create photographs of a flat Earth?
A property of mass is that it has gravitational force regardless of size. If the Earth did not have a gravitational field, wouldn’t that imply that the Earth doesn’t physically exist?
Where is the Amundsen–Scott South Pole Station located if the south “pole” is the whole circumference of the Earth?
Wouldn’t creating such elaborate fakes and conspiracies cost an equal–if not greater–amount of money than the science they are supposedly covering up?
The idea of the Earth as a sphere has existed at least since the time of the ancient Greeks, long before NASA. What were their financial motives?
What financial motives could NASA have, since their budget is still cut every year?
How could the sun be a spotlight if it is a sphere? On the flat Earth, the light projection would have to be a semicircle.
Why does the North Star goes to the horizon?
Why do constellations appear to be different in the Southern and Northern hemispheres?
Why is the Coriolis effect stronger near both poles, instead of stronger in the north and weaker in the south?
If the circumferential south pole is preventing the oceans from pouring over the edge of the flat Earth, why didn’t the oceans disappear during the incredible amount of time it would have taken for that ice to form?
If the oceans would–if they could–pour off the edge of the flat Earth, where, then, would they go? Does this mean that whatever keeps the oceans on the surface of the flat Earth only operates in a downward direction on the uppermost surface and is absent on the underneath?
Why are satellites visible from Earth with a pair of binoculars and even the naked eye?
How could a flat body maintain an atmosphere?
Why are other celestial bodies spheres but the Earth is not? How, and why, was the Earth created differently?

Floating: buoyant or suspended in water or air.

I agree with your points, but the definition of floating is contrary to the behavior and physics of the Sun, the planets, and their moons. There is no water or air to create buoyancy in space. So that particular claim he made is correct, even if the rest is nonsense.

I don’t care what a jew has to say about anything, though.

On top of that, I don't really give a shit about things that don't affect my life. The earth could be a nebulous blob of unpasteurized cheese and it wouldn't change my day to day in the slightest way to find that out. I have better shit to worry about right now.

They're trying to hide direct evidence of the firmament and the fact that the earth has a creator.

This most definitely effects us all.

I want everyone to notice, the obvious shill account didn't say anything I said was wrong. jew behavior 101. I guess they agree with everything I said. Also, notice how the controllers are so willing to throw out the "jew" thing as if jews are pro-flat Earth. These people are so easy to use...

[ - ] Tallest_Skil 0 points 3 weeksApr 9, 2024 08:27:48 ago (+0/-0)

you’re a shill because I can’t read your posts

you’re a shill because you posted truth that I can’t refute

you’re a shill because truth hurts my feelings

you’re a shill because I have no argument against what you said

you’re a shill because I have no refutation for what you said

you’re a shill because I don’t like what you said

you’re a shill because you say things shills are forbidden from saying

you’re a shill because I am too weak and cowardly to accept reality

#Neat. Kill yourself. Earth not flat.

didn't say anything I said was wrong.

Everything you said is wrong.

I guess they agree with everything I said.

You rape children. I said so, therefore it’s true.

Also, notice how the controllers

Notice how the jewish paid shill refuses to say jews pay shills.

as if jews are pro-flat Earth.

Only jews are, yes.

These people are so easy to use…

Yes, you are.

Flat Earth is a psy-op.

Basically, if you imagine unfolding the world into a flat disc and folding/morphing/warping space to make sense of the observations, that is what they will do in their model. The argument you need to present is that even if the two models have the same predictive power, the 3d model is simpler / more elegant.

It's kind of like solving the puzzle of an unstoppable force hitting an immoveable object. What happens? Everything else moves because pinning that object as your point of reference makes it immoveable, but movement still occurs relative to the object.

So if the earth is declared flat for the purpose of argument, the folding of space would create lensing to explain the observations.

Just, like, think about it, bro!

The flatter fears the 'professor dave explains' video debunking flat earth. Go ahead and try to get one to rebut even one of the "Ten Challenges For Flat Earthers", or anything on the other 7 or 8 flat earth debunkings. They'll pull any trick to avoid it.

"Can you explain how his explanation is wrong there?"

"HE'S NOT EVEN A REAL PROFESSOR!!1!"

🤣
