Is the Earth Flat? - Some Evidence Presented

[Raphael]

Apparently such a flight fits the flat earth model quite well. The flight on a global earth goes from the southern hemisphere to the northern, then back to the southern again. Very odd flight path for a globe, which seems to make more sense for a flat earth model.

Emirates always makes long haul flights go via Dubai (even if it means you have to travel for longer). It's so people will spend lots of money in Dubai (which apparently has great shopping...my brother's sister-in-law and her husband live in Dubai, he used to work for Emirates).

Another flight says



The 18 hour wait over in Auckland may be a fraudulent claim, although not an impossible claim, to cover over an excessive flight duration to South America.

Are you that stupid that you don't think people can tell the difference between being in a plane in the air and being stuck in Auckland Airport for 18 hours (and for an 18 hour layover most people will get out of the airport and go see a bit of NZ.....that is more enough time for a trip down to Mata mata so you can go to Hobbiton and have a pint or three at the Green Dragon and still have time to sober up and drive back to the airport.

My current understanding is the FEer's have some disagreement over the map location of the continents to account for flight paths. Maybe its difficult to determine what flights are real and what are fake. Then use the real ones to construct a map.

If you're have to make up nonsense about fake flights (and you can go and actually book onto any of those flights and take them yourself which proves none of them are fake) then I'm afraid your FE theory completely and utterly debunked.

Game over.

I'm currently agnostic about the flat earth. There seems to be some strong evidence both for it and against it.

John: The 'strong' in 'strong evidence for a flat Earth' is referring to the smell, not the scientific viability. I think you've gone 'nose blind'.

Incorrectly writing your post doesn't create a hook.

The post was written correctly. You just didn't want to deal with it so you purposefully misread it. Deal with it. How can there be a lunar eclipse with a flat earth? There can't be.

There is another light that shines up from beneath the earth every so often and ...

Roy,

Please add "temperature" to the list.

K54

Done. Also added thermometers, Reunion, and the Apollo program.

What is the best evidence against it?

[JohnMartin]

Missed my post about the constellations too John. Very convenient.

Currently thinking things through.

You act like an abusive ex-wife.

Never did get the divorce letter did you. You keep coming back not realizing I'm simply not interested.

Putz.

Even that wouldnt work since the earth is bigger than the moon and then all eclipses would be total. Oh and you would have to have something to block the sun from shining on the moon at the same time. Maybe it is done with spotlights and shadow puppets?

Your behavior.

Appalling as always.

It means you people are desperate.

When you ignore people's arguments that's a clear sign you have no rebuttal and is a clear admission of defeat.

John trollbat Martin admits defeat.

Apparently eclipses are evidence against the global earth as well.

That doesn't explain lunar eclipses on a flat earth, John. Try again.

and answer this post too:

Apparently they can see the island, including the airport and planes landing at night and not just the mountain.

Anyone capable of thought would realise that if you can see Piton de la Fournaise from Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam you can also see Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam from Piton de la Fournaise.

[Roy]

Also, on a flat earth you could never have a lunar eclipse, where the earth is between the sun and the moon and casts a shadow on the moon. Impossible since the earth never comes between the earth and moon on a flat earth.

Correct. The flat earth model never has the moon caste a shadow on the moon. Evidently the global earth model is miraculous.

LOL! Moonbat Martin the dishonest quote miner. From a section on atmospheric refraction in Astronomy and Astronomical Instruments, p. 105. By George G. Carey.

""On some occasions the horizontal refraction amounts to 36 or 37 minutes, and generally to about 33 minutes, which is equal to the diameter of the sun or moon; and, therefore, the whole disc of the sun or moon will appear above the horizon, both at rising and setting, although actually below. This is the reason that the full moon has sometimes been seen above the horizon before the sun was set. A remarkable instance of this kind was observed at Paris, on the 19th of July, 1750, when the moon appeared visibly eclipsed, while the sun was distinctly to be seen above the horizon."
