In order to believe the Earth is flat you have to either dismiss virtually all science, or believe tens of millions of people across hundreds of countries are in on the conspiracy. Everybody from airplane pilots to high school astronomy teachers to the people who make commercial telescopes need to be in on it for the lie to hold up.
Why do you assume tens of millions of people have to be in on it?
Are you not capable of using logic and rational thinking? If almost everyone has been deceived into believing a lie about the shape of the earth, then what other lies are we buying into?
Airplane pilots wouldn't have a clue. They are so busy doing cockpit/instrument checks and cross-checks, endless procedures & flight protocols, and paperwork for every flight flown.
They have been deliberately trained to do all these extra little tasks so that they must be focused on the job. And just like numerous other professions, Pilots are unknowingly controlled with the "fear porn" by the reinforcing of the ingrained belief "YOU are personally responsible for the hundreds of lives of passengers and crew."
The entire purpose is to keep Pilots distracted and focused on the job, so that they have no time to stop and smell the roses or notice a flat landscape out the cockpit, or that the plane never dips its nose once it has reached cruising altitude.
The very few Pilots who have noticed things that conflict with what they were told/taught are normally to frightened to say anything, for fear of ridicule or loss of employment.
Have you even noticed how some people (including yourself) have reacted to this topic? The instant reaction of "NUH NUH NUH! Not possible! Just a conspiracy. NUH NUH NUH!"
This is standard and classic Denial Syndrome.
You don't want to accept this truth of the flat earth because it is frankly scary stuff to take in. Your ego (pride) takes over and tries to calm you down by telling you "these guys are retarded, don't worry, you know everything".
I'm not here to try and solicit money or anything else from you. I just want to share the truth with all of you. I'm telling you all this with genuine love for my fellow man.
