Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment. John 7:24

The natural physics of water is to find and maintain its level. If Earth were a giant sphere tilted, wobbling and hurdling through infinite space then truly flat, consistently level surfaces would not exist here. But since Earth is in fact an extended flat plane, this fundamental physical property of fluids finding and remaining level is consistent with experience and common sense.-

Rivers run down to sea-level finding the easiest course, North, South, East, West and all other intermediary directions over the Earth at the same time. If Earth were truly a spinning ball then many of these rivers would be impossibly flowing uphill, for example the Mississippi in its 3000 miles would have to ascend 11 miles before reaching the Gulf of Mexico.

One portion of the Nile River flows for a thousand miles with a fall of only one foot. Parts of the West African Congo, according to the supposed inclination and movement of the ball-Earth, would be sometimes running uphill and sometimes down. This would also be the case for the Parana, Paraguay and other long rivers.
If Earth were a ball 25,000 miles in circumference as NASA and modern astronomy claim, spherical trigonometry dictates the surface of all standing water must curve downward an easily measurable 8 inches per mile multiplied by the square of the distance. This means along a 6 mile channel of standing water, the Earth would dip 6 feet on either end from the central peak. Every time such experiments have been conducted, however, standing water has proven to be perfectly level.

Yes, I went outside and viewed the night sky many times and verified the constellations and their movements are exactly what is predicted by the spherical model. Have you?
You live in the southern hemisphere, right? Tell us, when you look south, are all the stars, including Sigma Octantis (the south celestial pole star) rotating in a perfect circle around Polaris the North Star just like Pastor Dean says?
It has been verified, and anyone can verify it by educating themselves and observing the stars apparent motion. You just refuse to do it because you don't want to. You WANT the earth to be flat, and you don't care if it's really a sphere.

It's a coincidence if the earth is flat and ironic if the earth is a sphere. I have a buddy who's curing me of using the word ironic the wrong way.

My mother was an english minor who corrected our speech all the time when we were kids. Trust me. It is quite ironic.
