What kind of backwards fool thinks the Earth is a sphere? Obviously it's an oblate spheroid.

"Thy." You use "thine" only when the following word begins with a vowel sound or the letter h. Thine attempt at satirical humor doth, I fear, fall upon its face and lie there, unmoving.

And verily, 'tis a truth universally acknowledged that even Saint Augustine of Hippo didst know in the fifth century of Our Lord that the Earth is a sphere (near enough), and did not the Venerable Bede write in The Reckoning of Time in the 7th or 8th century that the Earth was not "not merely circular like a shield or spread out like a wheel, but resembles more a ball" and that the uneven length of days was attributable to the spherical shape of the Earth.

The sphericity of the Earth is not, I declareth, some Christian superstition, even for those of a fundamental turn of mind.

It is neither hearsay nor heresy, good sir, whichever of the latter you may in fact be referring to.

Don't laugh, Pancake. I used to sound like that, back in the 9th century, when I was wandering all over Western Europe. Everywhere I went they spoke a different dialect of really bad provincial Latin and it gets jumbled up in your head after a while.

Thou wouldst do well to read the King James Bible, or the works of Shakespeare, for your early Modern English doth suffer greatly from error. The God of the KJV Bible, if he doth exist, frowns upon thy pathetic attempt.

And yea, I am a believer in Ye Olde "global warming". Though I am much holier than thou, fool.
