Their whole argument is that they don't believe anyone HAS seen it from space, all made up you see, moon landings, space station, all of it. Conspiracy. There is absolutely no evidence they will believe short of actually taking them up there for a look-see. Read the whole thread. absolute first-rate goofy!

Yes guys I guess sometimes we all see what we want to see when the truth may already be right in front of us.

I don't wanna read through umpteen pages of conflicting comments, but is there like a Readers Digest Condensed version of why it's so important to some people to believe the earth is flat? I mean, what would the government gain by "tricking" people into believing the earth is round? Also, if the Word says this world is temporary, what difference does it make, the shape of this planet? And didn't the Lord tell us not to worry about the things of the world, not to be anxious about anything, take no thought for our life, and to set our sights on things above and not on this earth? Doesn't obsession with conspiracy theories run counter to the Lord's wisdom for us?

Here a great sermon by brother Jason Jack: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWePuJy66BE
Hi AuntieAnt, you raise a Most Excellent point: The Lord does, in fact, tell us to "look to the things which are not seen, & not to the things which are seen; for the things which are seen are temporal, and the things unseen, eternal" (my paraphrase).
I don't see any harm in discussing anything really because we are still in the world. Communication, to me, is a most important thing. To me, it doesn't matter whether one's position is true or won't be changed; the important thing is the communication itself - the talking amongst ourselves.
Unfortunately, I am unable to speak as to whether or not the contributions in this forum constitute an obsession as that goes to their hearts. I can only judge by words and actions and only after I've pulled the plank out of my own eye. <3
Thanks!

I love studying science and discussion theories with folks, too. The comment I made about "obession" was regarding people believing there's a huge conspiracy going on at NASA and with our government. It seems fear based, ya know? The Lord tells us not to be afraid and that He has everything under control. He also tells us He will not let us be deceived when we are walking in Him. That's the point I was making, does that make sense?Here's an interesting commentary:

Hi Auntie. Nice to meet you too! Thanks for the additional explanation. Obviously, in my world, more words - but not too many, like now - are preferred to less.
The Lord does tell us to not be afraid & so I'm not. He does tell us to wait on & trust in Him. I'm not afraid better than the other 2; yet, I do not worry about the future, or the conspracies, or the government. My only concern is whether or not I do what's Right in His Eyes and to do my best at it today.
You may be correct in your assessment of the obsession issue. People, as a general rule, do tend to get carried away. I've been known to do that a few times myself. I will check out your link.
Thanks!
