RE: Why do I beleive that the Earth is Flat?

in #world7 years ago (edited)

Please do some research on these things. It gets tiresome correcting what people simply repeat without first having fact checked them. There are very good sources with excellent explanations all over the internet.

Or perhaps you could take an astronomy course so that you are more informed and can ask better questions and get answers in the class about these known phenomenon.

Astronomy is accessible to everyone, at not a very high cost, and many cities even have planetariums or open times that you can ask astronomers questions and even look through their telescopes if you do not have the ability to get one.

I appreciate that people are asking questions about these things, but to write posts on things as if they cannot happen when they are perfectly explainable, is simply dishonest. Why not do some actual research to try to find the answers to these questions first? It would be more honest.

:) I made my research. But you? This article is not enough to tell everything at once. And my English also not enough. Please first watch Dave Murphy's video on youtube. And then go to beach and take a photo of horizon. Then use a ruler. You will see the horizon is completely straight. NASA's photos all fake and CGI. There are so many evidence of this. Yes I know we learn that it is like a sphere since we were children and It is very hard to change this. But you should belive what you see and what you feel. Because they are lying.

I've watched TONS of your flat earth videos. I'm not sure why you think that because I disagree with you, that I have not done any research. It's a ridiculous assumption on the part of flat earthers.

You made several very easy to research mistakes, but pass them off as facts.

Yes, we were taught this as children. But it happens to be true. It's kind of a ridiculous argument to say that BECAUSE we were taught it as children, it must be false.

And yes, it seems like it's flat, however, it's not. Here's why it seems flat. There is a very good reason for that that I explain here. That does not mean it's flat. It's PROVABLY curved. That you BELIEVE you should be able to go to the BEACH and see the curvature of the earth is unrealistic and unscientific. Here is the EXPECTED curvature of the earth that you could see with your eyes at 100,000 feet! It's BARELY anything! The gif below illustrates the curvature at 1000 feet and 100,000 feet. You can see that curvature on a high altitude balloon, bu you have to measure it carefully.

Seriously, you are just repeating nonsense without fact checking it. DECLARING something is true, does not make it so. I pointed out the obvious errors you made, that you could fact check yourself in a few minutes. Again, perhaps an astronomy class would be extremely beneficial. Perhaps going out with a surveyor, doing a time lapse of the sun and moon, etc. I can see that you are excited about learning about the planet, you should ACTUALLY go learn about it instead of watching youtube videos of people who do not have any idea of what they are talking about.
