so basically:
(x) people are your friends if they share your opinion
(y) people are your enemy if they dont share your opinion


Well, what it means for me is: when a topic gets pushed on, after all arguments have been made, without an actual interaction between the arguments to get somewhere. And it would get to a point where shit posts are dominating the conversation.. Then yes, that makes me opposed to the topic being continued and would make me wonder why it is in this state.

So you believe in gravity? t4t

No. He said that sound is not effected by what you perceive as gravity...

so are you saying that sound waves are "glued" and affected by gravity? The Bs you believe is epic.
Sound waves are affected by the density of the volume they travel against, but not by gravity itself.

Watch Neil "smoking" Degrasse Tyson fumble over the Question What is gravity: classic buffoonery! He also admits it has nothing to do with an invisible force planet pulling stuff towards it but the curving of space time and then covers up all the bs with a poetic mindfuck.

Ah fcuk all of you, ill make this point, that over 50% of what Card is saying is actually correct. Presentation is the key:

This is gravity.. a really good way to view it.

We don't know what it is, and why it is there. Yet, we have devised ways to calculate with it.
Disproving the laws we have devised is easy. and yet they are the closed to how it effects our lives.

So. Our laws of gravity are false, yet the best understanding we have so far.

You're saying the same as I did in other words.. Nice way to trigger

I'll answer it agian though. Pard topics sometimes give me something to think about. I'm here more or less to try to broaden my perspective.
Flat earth topics dont seem to go anywhere. Its arguments are being disproven over and over. To afterwards be ignored and new flat earth "pamphlets" being posted to trigger others.

The fun part for me is to see the half part of truth in every flat earth theory. Making ppl use funny arguments to disprove something science and themselves already agree upon..
The troll within the theory is sometimes amazing, but even that becomes boring for me at some point.. Time to broaden ones perspective somewhere else.

And it makes me posts something like this ;)


I dont agree with that - you think your part of some implied social club and you're not really thinking at all, only what you want to see and agreeing with what you want to and watching people flinging shit on people who dont agree with you just like most of these kids think is cool nowadays.

For example - you offered no proof of why the video on mountains that proved flat earth was not true - nor once did you offer any reasonable arguments to my 10 reasons that debunk the ball earth or stated why you thought it was not true, you offered no proof debunking anything on flat earth - you just state something you believe and begin the outrage if i dont believe it. You've made no attempt at real communication, just the standard childish reply i've come to accept. Most of the kids on here act like raging teens on steroids. No one has approached this with any rational argument, people just shit post their shit opinions, mention a mere word and think something is debunked - I mean - really they think there is some implied social acceptance that proves thing and that if you dont accept it, your free to be bullied. Heliocentric beliefs aren't really rational, they use a "you better believe or else" threat tactic.

Here's the difference - I am not here to yell and scream and shit on people if they dont believe a video or anything i say.
Look at this thread and you can plainly see that most people have some kind of social disorder that they try and project on other people and then other people pile on with group think.

Id like to - however there is no proof for it - except droping something and that can be explained by buoyancy and density withing a volume.
and density is not as simple as you think, it is also the photonic electro-magnetic connection between particles, but in this case here, i am simple talking about what the previous poster said was relevant to sound traveling east, that it was relative to the spin of the earth because of gravity, and i disagree with that principle. If it were true - it would be a nice proof for gravity.

come to think of it..

I remember having some friendly pms regarding the flat earth topic...
I might even be the most sympathetic glober on the forum ^^

50% is good and ill take that because i think there needs to be more doubt and less "we know for sure" because we really know fuck all

I think you need to reread this thread and point out specific examples and i think you'll find that i never begin personally insulting without being insulted first.

IF you cant find an example - I will gladly apologize to that person - if you cant then they clearly need to offer an apology.

No, you don't get to pick both. The vast majority of those photos of Earth are taken by low Earth orbit satellites, so of course they have to be put together as composites. That in NO WAY means that they are trying to show you 50% of the planet in each composite, which is the logical assumption you're making. There is no reason to presume the pictures will have the same breadth as the others.

I showed you a link to pictures of Earth taken from high orbit, and your dodge manifested itself in "what about the colors?" But you failed to note that the photos were taken in multiple different spectra, including infrared, which was why the Earth's vegetation appeared red in one of the photos. You claim no photos of Earth exist that aren't composite, but in fact, I showed you several.
