Serious question (or about as serious as you can get when talking about the Flat Earthers). Do the Flat Earth folks believe all the space photos of a pretty obviously spherical earth have been faked for over 50 years?
If so, that takes a lot of faith in your delusions to deny that much evidence to the contrary.
«If so, that takes a lot of faith in your delusions to deny that much evidence to the contrary.» Evangelicals are preordained to believe in Trump as a messenger of their god.
Occam’s Razor: The simplest explanation that adequately describes an event is most likely to be TRUE.
Murphey’s Blunt Instrument: The most complicated explanation that involves the most conspirators and depends on a series of unlikely events is most likely to be BELIEVED.
Corollary to Occam’s Razor: Never ascribe to malice that which can adequately be explained by stupidity, fear or greed. I think this explains why there is a toilet paper “shortage.”
I had a conversation with a flat-earther once. Turns out they had no idea what the significance of Dec. 7, 1941 is, or who Benedict Arnold was. That told me a lot.
Husband had a shipmate on the JFK carrier that was a flat earther. This guy refused to believe the evidence he saw, with his own two eyes. His reasoning was the earth was one long expanse, and the carrier just turned around at the end, going back the other way.
If the earth is flat, then you would be able to see the same constellations in the sky no matter where you stood. Since, this is not so, QED the earth is not flat.
Do flat-earthers believe that other planets are also flat? And also, I want to know how gravity works on a flat world, and what’s happening on the bottom side…?

How can we have so much access to so many facts and be so wrong so often?

Are there really ‘flat earth’ believers or has the term become a popular myth?

Flat-Earthers are nuts. If the Earth was flat, there’d be no Pellucidar.

And a polarization of a great country which leads to it’s eventual demise as a world power.

A giant brain which can never reach a decision. A lot like disorganised schizophrenia.

Flat Earth Society – aren’t that the guys who want to flatten down every hill and fill up every valley?

The ancient Greeks not only figured out that the Earth was a sphere, they also got the size down to within 10%.
It is a case of people with great intelligence working with limited equipment vs. people with great equipment working with limited intelligence.

The simple question to pose to “Flat Earthers” is – “So if the Earth is flat, the Sun shines everywhere at the same time. Please explain time zones.”

If the Earth is flat, is Earth positioned horizontally, vertically or somewhere in between? Do humans populate both sides of a flat Earth?
