sounds like your trying to figure out why the horizon is actually curved in your model and you're trying to figure out how to make it look flat. :rofl:


you've never once showed WHY the horizon would be curved, you assumed it should be based on your misunderstanding of geometry then used that misunderstanding as proof the earth is flat.

i repeat, you have NEVER proven that on the ball earth model that the horizon should be curved, you've never even attempted it with more than a youtube video or a stick figure. because if you tried you'd realize you're wrong really really quick.

No, you won't get crushed because of perspective. You would only get crushed on a 2d world, but you have to consider the z-axis. Thanks to perspective, air pressure only affects people's arms, not sombreros.


thanks for putting that into perspective, i was confused.

yes, somberos and muscles are the exact same thing , if your perspective is that of Mr Potato Head.

Why are you not showing the picture from the model you made, couldn't find the flat horizon could you, lol.

Anything I show you refuse to believe, you need to figure this one out for yourself.

want to see how terribly ironic part of your stance card?

when challenged you say "of course the earth is round, a circle is round, but it's flat"

which is the exact same reason the horizon on a sphere is flat.

you're literally arguing yourself.

as you stand on a sphere and look around you the visible portion of the sphere dependent on your height is a circle that is flat.

again, the flatness of the horizon is not proof for or against either model, it is a CONSTANT of both models. the only difference is things disappearing behind the horizon.

as to the picture, 1 im at work and cant access any websites to upload, 2 why bother you'll call it a fake like any picture from a satellite.

We are on the same team here, card! I was just explaining to them why sombreros don't get crushed by air pressure, those ballearthers just don't get it.

If you guys don't think air pressure affects sombreros though, try this: put on a sombrero and jump. Did you fly off the planet and hit your head on the sky-dome? No, because the air pressure on the sombrero pushed you back down to earth. Checkmate.

Wait - so where is this model you said you were working on? wtf happened? Tell everyone, be honest for once, plz.

lol model. i drew a sphere in a 3d drafting program. not that i needed to because i understood the geometry involved but i did. i enterred the program, typed the command to draw a sphere in open space and typed 7,917.5 miles for the diameter. do you need me to post a picture of a sphere? lol

but you're dodging what i said. as usual. on a sphere the horizon looks flat. unless you can disprove that stop acting like it's not true.

I didn't think spherechuckers could get more retarded but i think you've done it with such ridiculous and stupid cartoonish assumptions.

So what you're saying is that your model was a complete failure because you couldn't find the flat horizon that you think should be there so now you wont talk about it or show it.- lololooololoolooloolooolooloolol.

Nice try to change the subject and dodge your mental inadequacies.
