So I'm kind of on the fence right now about the flat earth. Some arguments make a lot of sense, but there are questions which I can't figure out and I'm can't find an answer for. Maybe some flatties on here could help me out.
- How do flat earthers explain the tides?
- When viewed from the Northern Hemisphere the stars appear to rotate in a counter-clockwise direction around a point directly above the North Pole, yet when viewed from the Southern Hemisphere the stars appear to rotate in a clockwise direction around a point directly above the South Pole. Why?
- Why does the moon appear upside-down in the northern hemisphere compared to the southern hemisphere? And on its side at the equator?
- Why does the south pole experience several days without the sun rising (polar-night) during winter and several days of total daylight without the sun setting beneath the horizon during summer (polar-day)?
- Why from the equator do the stars directly overhead appear to travel in a straight line while stars to the North or South appear to travel in curved paths?
- How do you explain the Aurora Borealis and Aurora Australis?
- What about the Cavendish experiment? Does it not prove gravity exists?
They can't answer you coz they're rewards and earth is a ball

Some things are only theories, like what causes the tides, but the rotation of the stars and almos everything you ask is explained in videos like the one of Eric Dubay.
Aiden Butler
Why? In a recent poll on here 2/3rds of voters said they believe in flat earth. I'm just asking questions.
Andrew Gray
first ? I have for you is.... have you ever witnessed any of these things first hand? or just going by what you were told, tell me why the stars in the night sky during summer are exactly the same as stars in night sky during winter. wouldn't this be impossible according to the proposed globe theory
Well I've witnessed the tides first hand. Yes you make a fair point about the stars being the same year-round. But I'm specifically looking for answers to the questions I posed in OP.

Come on flatties I know you're here, at least explain how the tides work ffs. That one shouldn't be difficult.
Kevin Bell
moon pulling water around while the ball is spinning at high speeds is about as contrary to physics as it gets imo - not saying I believe either way - I think that this is one of the unanswerable ?'s of life/waste of precious time// and that globe earth" and ever expanding galaxies/other worlds/ ect. was a shill attempt at disproving God and creation
Asher Baker
Not a flat-eather here, but I've seen these exact questions asked and answered by dodgy and vague explanations that they will claim are valid answers.
All you really need to decide on flat earth theory is to look at the whole question from a very high level.
A lot of their arguments against direct data, videos and photographs coming from space is that everything has been faked in some sort of massive global coverup. Yet any sane and rational person should see that such a level of human organization and near-perfect efficiency is simple not currently possible. There's multiple countries with space programs, there's people from all walks of life working with data coming from Earth's orbit, etc. You can see clear-as-day that it is not some tightly orchestrated, cohesive unit. I personally know people who directly receive and analyze data coming from NASA's research satellites. A lot of the things they do would not be possible if the data were not actually coming from orbit, and I know with certainty that these people are not fooling their friends and family with an elaborate conspiracy.
Just apply Occam's Razor and you will see that in order to believe in flat earth you would need an absurd amount of faith in the organizational level of humans, cohesion of all society, etc. It's just illogical in the end, people here on Sup Forums just like to LARP as super secret conspiracy theory detectives because it gives them a thrill they can't find elsewhere in life.
Also that poll you're talking about was all people voting ironically. How new are you?

They even put out videos, like the one mentioned here- which to anyone able to run some gears in their head comes off as completely false.
It's quite simple. Our weather and sky cannot possibly function as they do unless we're on a sphere. There's no debating this either. It just does not work. No amount of youtube videos made by trolls/loons will change this fact. It's so obvious the world is round that people started realizing it and accurately measuring the size of the earth before Jesus was born.

you do realize globe theory is relatively new compared to all of recorded history don't you?
Actually that's wrong. The point in which is was accepted as true by the public you can make an argument for it being relatively new, but scientists have long been concluding that the Earth was a globe.

You don't get it? It's a troll you dumbfuck.

Isnt Flat Earth Theory just a psy-op so people dont realize that the earth is hollow?
Liam Edwards
Recorded history is about 6000 years. Likely, those who lived before the great cataclysm also know it was round. Many suspected long before 2000 years ago. The fact that the idea even came into people's minds is due to the fact that the earth's skies, weather, and horizon do not at all correspond logically to a planar model. If we did in fact live on a plane or disc, it would be obvious.
Also, one might critically ask: "Why the fuck would anyone invent the idea that the earth is round?" You see, conspiracies need a solid reason in order to work in theory. >9/11 was an inside job! There's a logical basis for this belief, going to war in the middle east for defense $$$. >Kennedy was in inside job! Again, logical. Kennedy was pissing off lots of people in high positions of government. >da earf is flat yo! .....

Sumerians and Babylonians had the Spherical earth measured. 6000 years ago it was understood to be a globe. Flat earth never was the prevailing theory, ever. So no, you're entirely incorrect.

Flat earth people, what would happen if you drilled through the flat earth? Would you fall through it into space or would you end up on reverse-Earth or something?
Asher Anderson
as I stated above - the reason to "invent" as you say would have been to convince people that they are nothing more than a mere accident on a mere spec in a vast unknown instead of divinely created with intention by a creator. - read the fucking thread before posting- I already stated don't believe either way 100%

Elaborate. What would a human being without elaborate equipment see in the sky that would make them think the earth is curved? How would they distinguish between "round-earth" weather and "flat-earth" weather?

>(((NASA))) Astronauts refuse to swear they went to the moon, even to the point of hostility
I love how flat earthers believe in a perfect global coverup, where all scientific data is modulated and doctored accordingly, the media is tightly controlled, and individuals go missing or end up brainwashed if they try to prove the "truth", yet they trust that some random people on YouTube are able to safely make videos blowing the whole thing out of the water without a care in the world from the conspirators.
Complete delusion.

What's wrong with being an accident? Why do you need some devine creator to feel important in life? Sounds like you have self esteem issues and need an excuse to make your ego feel satisfied. Whether a creator exists means nothing to me. I live because it's interesting to do so, even in the hard times, and I'll not stop for anyone. God be damned.
Oh, btw... You Abrahamic religion parrots control and have controlled most of the world and its information centers for over 2000 years. Don't you DARE complain about logical people seeing through your faggotry. That's like women complaining about not being pampered enough.
Brayden Diaz
Because the earth is not flat, it is a 3 dimensional sphere. Mystery solved.
Lucas Gonzalez
Not really. It gets people to reject a well established and well corroborated fact in favour of a hypothesis that requires an unnecessary assumption on every level of explanation. The law of parsimony is important in our attempts to make sense of the world and ignoring it for no reason is just a waste of time.

Every surface looks flat when close enough, unless it's fractal or something like that. A ~2m tall human will see a pretty flat surface on a 13000km across sphere. The only difference is when your high enough.

Healthy skepticism is fine, but this goes way beyond that. This is a question with a solid conclusion that has remained unchanged, yet constantly validated for thousands of years.
I fail to see how anything beneficial can come out of illogically denying a basic aspect of our entire existence, let alone claiming that basically all scientists are lying to us.
