Click and be amazed!

The above link will take you to a place of unbelievable idiocy it is just.. I implore you to read the FAQ they have written up. Also not everyone at the site believes this shit. :tsk:

Some highlights to the most stupidest shit Ive ever read.

Quote
Q: "Why do the all the world Governments say the Earth is round?"

A: A Conspiracy among world Governments claiming to have space programs has disseminated the lie to the other governments of the world, as well as to the media and the general public.

Q: "What about NASA? Don't they have photos to prove that the Earth is round?"

A: NASA is part of the conspiracy too. The photos are faked.

Q: "Why has no-one taken a photo of the Earth that proves it is flat?"

A: The government prevents people from getting close enough to the Ice Wall to take a picture.

Q: "How did NASA create these images with the computer technology available at the time?"

A: Since NASA did not send rockets into space, they instead spent the money on developing advanced computers and imaging software instead
I KNEW IT!!!  :sweat:

Q: "Why doesn't water run off the Earth?"

A: There is a vast ice wall that keeps the water where it is. This explains why you can find a vast plane of ice when you travel south. The height of the Ice Wall is hotly debated. Several possible models exist and are supported by different FE proponents:

  - The Ice Wall (possibly synoymous with the Ross Ice Shelf) is 150 feet tall, and holds in the oceans. Atmosphere/atmolayer is either contained by another means or is universal.

  - The Ice Wall is between 40 and 50 thousand feet high, and holds in not only the world's oceans, but 40000-50000 feet of atmolayer as well.

Antarctica as a continent does not exist - rather it is a ring of ice around the entire circumference of the Earth..
A huge Ice Wall no one can see because the Government is hiding/protecting it so people will continue to believe the world is round? Oh we must keep this quiet though.. Their watching us :shh:

Discuss!

Has anyone ever taken a look at the moon?  Or the Sun?  Notice what shape they are?

Also, another fun way to prove the Earth is round is to take someone to a harbour, along with a telescope.  Point the telescope out towards the water and watch a ship come in (preferably a sailing ship, or something with a tall mast).  Notice how the ship comes into view?  You see the top of the mast, and then a little more of it, then the deck, then the hull.  If the world was flat you'd be able to see all of that ship when it was a tiny speck on the horizon.

Good times.

Why is the flat earth society met with so much ridicule yet 9/11 conspiracy theorists and people who believe evolution is a lie are seen as just having a differing opinion?

because we've ridiculed them in the past and this isn't a topic about them.

It's probably because it's easier to prove FE people wrong.  See my post for details.

Because you can *prove* that these guys are completely wrong. Unless, of course, you think like one of the people on the site, who said something to the effect of "since the human mind can't differenciate dreams and reality, you can't prove anything."
Upon arriving the attending doctor could find no abnormal physical symptoms other than extremely dilated pupils. After spending several hours terrified that his body had been possessed by a demon, that his next door neighbor was a witch, and that his furniture was threatening him, Dr. Hofmann feared he had become completely insane.

I would certainly hope so. But how the fuck can people go on so long (well over 1000 posts) like that without getting sick of it?

Q: "What about time zones?"

A: The sun is a spotlight which shines light on a concentrated area, so not everywhere on Earth will be lit at once. Times zones exist so that everyone's clock will be at 12:00 around the time the sun is approximately directly overhead.

This is completely fucked up, and I thought for a moment that it could be a hoax site. But some of these guys on that forum seem pretty passionate about the subject. The sun is a giant spotlight that projects "hot light?"  :gwa:

I've read that that site is a troll site.
There are people who do believe the earth is flat (idiots), but that site in particular isn't them.

A tip for those hopeless souls.

Board a plane that is either eastbound or westbound. Do not stop traveling in that direction. You will be in for a pleasant surprise after several flights!

sounds like a hell of a hassle to have a giant spotlight as the sun (invented when, 50 years ago?) and protecting the ice walls just to keep FLAT EARTH a secret to the public. but yeah, def. troll site. nobody would believe the sun is a giant spotlight

why doesn't the spotlight melt the ice wall (i have not read this site and don't feel like it so someone just tell me if they cover this)

I mean the real ice caps are hit with sun differently than other parts of the world because of the earth's axis and rotation and such (good lord I am not scientific sounding this morning) but in their idea the spotlight hits all areas of the world the same
