The Earth is Flat, Nasa is a Hoax

Postby Tom Bishop » Wed May 26, 2010 8:45 am

Round Earth Theory requires us to believe that the government possesses super technologies and is able to explore the cosmos. We're required to believe that there exists technologies beyond our comprehension which allows the government to access space. We're required to believe that the government is entirely honest about this, despite never going through any sort of peer review.


Round Earth Theory requires us to believe that we are spinning at over a thousand miles per hour; faster than the speed of sound. All of this spinning is occurring without our knowledge. Round Earth Theory requires us to believe in a completely hypothetical force called gravity which permeates all of existence. No one seems to know the mechanism for Gravity which causes bodies to accelerate into each other. The mechanism is completely unknown and undiscovered. Round Earth Theory requires us to blindly believe that the shadow on the moon during a lunar eclipse comes from the earth as opposed to any other celestial body which intersects the light between the moon and sun. There is no evidence for the earth being the originator of the shadow. We're just expected to blindly believe! Round Earth Theory requires us to believe that the stars are lightyears away and that universe is filled with planets and teeming with alien life. Astronomers are so sure of this that they scan the cosmos intently, searching for alien signals.


In direct opposition, Flat Earth Theory only requires us to believe what our direct senses tell us. The earth is exactly as it appears: a plane. The stars are really just lights a few thousand miles away, which is easily demonstrated through astronomical parallax on a plane surface. The sun is not astronomically large, but a small sphere which hugs the surface of the earth. The shadow on the moon is just a shadow which could come from any celestial body. The earth is the only known material world, quite different from tiny swirling cosmos above our heads.

In addition Flat Earth Theory requires us only to believe in things we have verified for our own selves. Instead of following media hype like a dog to the whistle FEers seek to learn the prime and universal truths for their own selves.

and Also:
There is ZERO experimental evidence for the Round Earth model. The earth is round based on a series of observations and nothing more. There is not even one controlled experiment which proves that the earth is a sphere. It's all observation, hypothesis, and interpretation.

An observation is not an experiment. What experiments do you have showing that the earth is a sphere?

Nasa exist only to make profit off the stupidity of humans. all images of the Earth are indeed fake. End of story

No, the world is balanced on the back of 4 elephants, which in turn stand on the back of a giant turtle. True story.

OMG, It's so obvious! Of course!! Science has lied to us!!!

It's time to abandon scientific progress and only look towards the Lord Jesus Christ (who is white of course) for guidance in all matters!

I suggest you read the factual accounts by Terry Pratchett to learn the truth. He documents the world in the time before the evil UN destroyed wizardry, trolls and all the rest.

Obviously the world is contained by a giant serpent called Jörmungandr, or the Midgard Serpent.

Ah yes I do.

All you have to do is look up. As I said the distant stars are really only a couple thousand miles away. As for the Sun, it orbits us, like the moon. Not around us, but above us.

I will soon provide pictures.
