Flat Earth

[trickyriky]

apologies for not reading the previous 21 pages, but has anybody come out with the working scale models yet?

personally i prefer the flat earth theory due to working scale models, the earth seems to be the center of the universe and if correct would mean the ancient greek antikythera mechanism is a perfectly working scale model of flat earth, of course i appreciate if this is the case then we are living inside a monstrous perpetual motion machine.

now sphere earth can never have a working scale model, the amount of times ive argued this point is unreal, but i always end the argument with ok here is a tennis ball, stick me some bodies of water on its surface then throw it to me so i can get a drink.

to be fair all the theories are laughable in their own way, but we will never know the truth for ourselves unless we go stealing boats or planes and explore for ourselves, and the chances of a new age Columbus are slim to nil

nope as the people i general converse with in real life also have true intelligence, there is nothing intelligent in believing theories which have no evidence to support, fabricated evidence and hearsay do not count

Lol, yeah, you keep telling yourself that.  There's nothing like feeling you're part of some small minority, privileged enough to have both access to fundamental knowledge about the world that billions of others do not, and enough intelligence to see what billions of others -- including the 'elite' intellectuals of the world who have spent years dirtying their hands in cerements of library dust at the most exclusive Universities and in the most exclusive professions -- have continuously failed to understand.

Yeah, I can see why Flat Earth Theory appeals to you...

[Xian01]

lol, Never seen a funny thread like this in a long time. The earth looks flat until you go to space.

You should take a picture next time you're there, then you can show us what fools we are for believing the overwhelming evidence that proves it's flat.

I suppose you could go up really high in an airplane, or send up a weather balloon to begin seeing the ellipsoid curvature of the earth.

This has been done and the horizon is perfectly flat and rises to eye level no matter how high up you go. That is of course unless you're filming with a fish-eye lens i.e. GoPro.

So why hasn't someone gone to the limits of the horizon, and produced a photo of the edge yet ?

clearly you dont im afraid mate, completely ignoring the fact i want real substantiated evidence to prove either theory 1 way or the other, you can quote passages from books all you like, they are mere hearsay, and speculation, i want hard facts, you know like a court of law would want, again i state there is nothing intelligent about believing theories no matter how much fabricated evidence may support the theory.

mock all you like, your clearly stating you believe we live on a sphere earth yet a working scale model can never be created LMFAO go figure that 1 continue your attempt to ridicule by all means, your only showing off your true intelligence level, blindly accepting the bullshit were told to believe.. like i say i prefer the flat earth theory over the others due to physical evidence, show me physical evidence to support sphere or even hollow earth and my preferance may change, until i see real physical evidence im going to continue preferring the flat earth theory, which also supports the fact we are all gods, look at when people pray, ask your self honestly who hears your prayers? you do you and your subconscious, your praying to yourself, we can manifest things, ever worried so much about something happening, then it happened, yeah you manifested that scenario with your worry

stop bowing down to criminals, take back your power, take back your authority, and start presenting yourselves, you do not need representatives

Thank you for elucidating my point.

On a side note, I'd love to see your scale model flat earth.  Just hold two ping pong balls over a sheet of paper, let go, and watch how the "sun" and "moon" rotate over the sheet of...oh wait.

Antarctica, the circular wall of ice that encompasses the entire earth is strictly off limits and you'll be met with military force if you try to take any unescorted ventures there.

the ancient greek antikythera mechanism, many vids on its recreation and what it does and how it works, never once been wrong.. obviously does not depict a flat earth model however with a little imagination or remodeling could easily be a working scale model, c'mon they are not going to allow people to show the device off as a working scale model of flat earth which blows the sphere concept out of the water are they lol

That's some pretty amazing dome, airtight and capable of withstanding the pressure of an entire Universe of water, yet allowing meteors to pass right through it.  I'll have whatever you're smoking, please.

You didn't even research the mechanism you're referencing, did you?  It works (somewhat poorly) independent of a heliocentric or geocentric perspective.  It isn't anything remotely close to a working flat earth model.

Meteorites are pieces that have broken off and fallen to earth. If you look at a cross-section of a meteorite the micro-crystalline structure is far beyond the finest Damascus steel man can produce and considerably stronger.

It must be magic because the physicists sure can't explain it.

Give me a break.  Seriously?  Yeah, it's unexplainable inasmuch as all the "why are we here?" and "what is our purpose in life?" also remain unanswered from a scientific perspective.  So, you take that and not only use it as a reason to denounce gravity, but simultaneously place the same handicap on your own FE bullshit, as well as any and all other theories that have ever been created (without realizing it).  What's worse is you're taking a theory (of gravity) that has all of the evidence, sound modeling, and predictability you could ask for, and cast it aside in favor of some flimsy, weak-ass theory that is wholly unsubstantiated and internally contradictory.  You're so far up your ass that you think ignorance somehow can't find you there.  In reality, you're swimming in ignorance, and it smells like pure bullshit.
