No, 19, you stupid!

I ignore your logic and substitute it with the logic you can find in a Warner Brothers cartoon.

Why? What benefit would any government possibly get from lieing about the shape of the Earth?

The satisfaction of knowing they've fooled their citizens, of course. Governments love that feeling.

I think so. There is some merit to be made by the argument that the Earth is flat. Firstly, why is everything we walk on flat? I haven't fallen off the face of the Earth. Secondly, waterfalls are where people fall of the edge and they exist. And thirdly, why does everything in space look like it was made in a film? There was a part in the Moon landing where Neil Armstrong ate some cheese off the Moon and no one questioned that. Obviously a film set. I know mainstream scientists will try and disprove me, but I am confident I am right.

Also, please take a look at this entry in an academic journal that proves the Earth is flat. Even elements of mainstream science agrees with me - http://www.theflatearthsociety.org/tiki ... %20horizon

Educating people on the truth is just as important as banning drinking and making abortion punishable by death, preferably by being thrown off the edge of the world!

EDIT: Also, people forget that Charle Darwin's agenda was to ensure the destruction of Christianity and traditional family values by promoting his monkey evolution theory, which, as all flat earthers know, is a pile of hogwash.

EDIT II: Please ignore. The Earth is a triangular prism it seems.

The Earth is as flat as vaccines giving autism to people.

Crimes committed by Muslims will be a pan-Islamic plot and proof of Islam's inherent evil. On the other hand crimes committed by non-Muslims will merely be the acts of loners who do not represent their belief system at all.
The probability of one's participation in homosexual acts is directly proportional to one's public disdain and disgust for homosexuals.
If a political figure makes an accusation of wrongdoing without evidence, odds are probable that the accuser or an associate thereof has in fact committed the very same act, possibly to a worse degree.

Yeah, it's fiction. It only appears in sci-fi. Like Star Wars. Alderaan was pretty round.
