Fortunately, God isn't a fictional story. God wasn't invented out of an attempt to understand the universe either. God came to man and revealed to him the unknowable through His Word, the Bible. The EVIDENCE supports the things that God has revealed. As an intelligent person, I know that matter and energy cannot create themselves out of nothing as we see in the Universe. This thought is supported by the Laws of Thermodynamics and Conservation of Energy. The Bible said that the earth was round thousands of years ago. I will NOT stop with the Bible and it's not non sense, it's too bad that you choose to remain in the dark. If you really knew what you were talking about you wouldn't say the things you are saying. Do your research.

The Earth Is Round:
Isa 40:22 It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in: {It is...: or, Him that}

The Earth Hangs on Nothing (In Outer Space):
Job 26:7 He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing.
God knew all along.
By that logic what or who created God? Something just doesn't poof into existence out of nothing. Pity that you think the earth is 6000 years. Why does God just not come out and reveal himself to everyone today. Yo what up, I am God here I am to everyone. Seems kinda suss to put your entire belief structure on the very few times God apparently spoke to a few goat farmers a few thousand years ago. Time to update the belief structure bud. Also there are countless of other wackos running around claiming their gods are legit and only true gods pre-dating jesus. Funny how god spoke to everyone on earth and told everyone he is true God... Definitely nothing fishy going on here.
Here is what the bible has to say about the planet
The first, Revelation 7:1, states: “And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree”
Sry bro there are no corners here back to theorycrafting lol
Isa 40:22 It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in: {It is...: or, Him that}This just states there is a circle on earth not that the earth is a sphere. If anything it's a flat circle to put a tent on.
Job 26:7 He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing.This doesn't prove that the earth is a sphere merely stating its in space another fail. Aboriginal people of Australia which is the oldest known culture knew about space 60000 years ago lol. Please take a science class
