Before I start explaining logical scientific evidence on why my title is more true than you might think. Let's flush out the common immediate responses people tend to lash out when I've made this statement. "You're an idiot" "Dumbass this is the 21st century" "Haven't you seen the pictures moron". Actually the last statement came out of my month when someone said to me "The Earth is Flat". That statement came out of my mouth so quick, it was more like a reflex, like if someone hit my funny bone and made me flinch. Now I realize it was a ignorant statement. I heard someone once say " Condemnation before investigation is a true sign of ignorance"
Well lets acknowledge the photos of the globe. If you look closely NASA will tell you themselves that they are all CGI. They will not deny they are artist illustrations. This is circumstantial at best but someone has to wonder why has there never been a real photograph taken of the Earth from space. A photograph would only solidify NASA's credibility.
Let's get into more concrete evidence. Upon looking across a body of water like the ocean, lake of just a flat plane of land. You will not see a curvature like you should be able to see if you were living on a globe. This is something anyone can verify themselves and you do not need some scientist to tell you. According to the ball earth math you should see 8 inches of curvature per 1 mile.
According to mainstream science the Earth is rotating on it's axis 1,000 MPH, the Earth is rotating around the sun travelling 584 million miles in about 365 days roughly, and on top of all that our solar system is rotating around the Milky way 500 thousand miles an hour. All that enormous unimaginable traveling but yet the stars have been in the same location ever since our ancient ancestors looked at them in their days.
Upon flying in an airplane while landing pilots do not adjust for a globe that is suppose to be spinning 1,000 mph. As a matter of fact it would probably be impossible to make such a daring landing. Upon flying in an airplane going east to west will not get you to your destination any longer than going the same distance from west to east. Which logically should be true if the globe was rotating 1,000 MPH. Main stream scientist would say because of the Coriolis force but if this was true then why doesn't a person shooting a cannon, missile, or just a rifle ever compensate for the Coriolis force while aiming at their target.
I just wanted to state my case with just a few proofs that can be easily verified by any normal average person. There are plenty more that I can list but lets see how this post goes first.
I do want to address some common responses that always come up after some who will read this.
Some might say what about the sun? I see the sunrise/ sunset every day. This can be explained by what you are really seen is the sun moving father away or coming close to you and the Law of Perspective is making the sun look like it is rising or setting.
Others might say the Government can't possible keep this quiet. It's to big of a conspiracy to have everyone in on it. This is in fact a misconception. The U.S Government kept the SR-71 a secret for 40 or 50 years. They U.S Government kept the Manhattan project a secret even from the Vice President.
So this was kind of brief since I didn't want to bore people with more proofs because I can keep it going and eventually have a long list of proofs. I just let these sink in for a little bit of time.
If the Earth is flat, then what is under it?
What's the point of the question? If the earth is a ball, what is deep inside it? If you can't answer, does that mean it isn't a ball?
Why does knowing what is inside it mean it isn't a ball? Before we knew our bodies were made up of cells, does that mean we weren't made up of cells? I don't see how not knowing one thing means the whole planet is flat.
"..You will not see a curvature like you should be able to see if you were living on a globe..."
You couldn't see curvature if you were on a ball either. Think about it: If you were an ant on a basketball, you would be in the exact center of the surface that ball. The "horizon" would be equal (and flat) all around you. Only if you were on a cylinder could you see a curve.
The biggest reason I am convinced that the earth is flat, is the lengths the powers that be will go to try to convince me it's a ball. Plus, water is always level. How can it curve around a ball? Where does the water curve?
I think the Earth is a globe because everything I see in the sky looks that way. I don't get too deep on the shape of the Earth. There are a lot of things people believe based on things they don't understand. A person believing in something without the proper knowledge to back up those beliefs is not necessarily to say that person's belief is false, in my humble opinion.
