flat and stationary, just like my grandma's pancakes!

but here's the thing, my grandma's pancakes are deliciously round, and the Earth, my friend, is a beautifully spherical masterpiece :)

next time you're savoring a pancake, just imagine it spinning through space—because reality is as round as breakfast should be


But but but the old book I got taught to believe in ?!

The Bedford Level experiment.

The first experiment at this site was conducted by Rowbotham in the summer of 1838. He waded into the river and used a telescope held 8 inches (20 cm) above the water to watch a boat, with a flag on its mast 3 feet (0.9 m) above the water, row slowly away from him.[3] He reported that the vessel remained constantly in his view for the full 6 miles (10 km) to Welney Bridge, whereas, had the water surface been curved with the accepted circumference of a spherical Earth, the top of the mast should have been about 11 feet (3.4 m) below his line of sight.

Once again science wouldn't accept the truth and in 1870 they created another false doctrine named atmospheric refraction to attempt to debunk Rowbotham's experiment.


Oh, how I've missed this!

The Bedford Level experiment was refuted in the same century it was conducted by Alfred Wallace. But if you want an actual false doctrine, then that would be the supposed "law of perspective and convergence" that you guys have never been able to explain mathematically.

Bible says earth is a circle, says nothing about it being flat.

Bible also says nothing about the earth being 6 thousand years old.

Where are people getting these false facts from?

I look at people with a blank face after telling me they don't believe because the bible says that.

I'm like, well, it doesn't say that....so....

You can calculate the age of the Earth from genesis. From creation story it tells you specifically the amount of days then add up the genealogical time line from Adam to jesus to present day it's roughly 6000 years give or take.

Christians don't read their own book much less understand it. No critical thinking whatsoever.

Wow. You really think what you just said is true? That would mean you are assuming two things. I never assume anything, because assumptions are just made up facts. The two assumptions you are making with the claim of a 6,000 year old Genesis earth birth would have to include that Genesis was talking about literal 24 hour days and the second assumption would have to be that there are no gaps between the chronological or genealogical dates in Genesis.

Do you usually end a debate when you were no where near victory?

Should I end my post with a "Atheists don't read our own book but claim they know it better." and be like you?

Your feeble and foolish mind attempt to put literal years on the God that created time itself and is outside of it. He can shape the world around you including your senses and yet your audacity to try and demean his God attributes show how pathetic and weak humans are. It's not even your fault, you're still growing kid.

How young is young when you are outside of time?
