But I recognize your pattern of rhetoric. You’re fluctuating between sweet and harsh arguments, between begging and ridiculing. People arguing with you never know what to expect.

I think not. This is nothing more than an attempt to make me look bad.

You are avoiding everything at all costs.

You cannot even tell me at what [approximate] altitude you were when you experienced what you related in an earlier post?

"Come on, now..."

I am not here to argue; rather, I am here to explain.

Perhaps you are here to argue?

Why can people not simply discuss a subject? Why do they feel they have to argue?

I intend no harshness toward anyone; only, to tell the truth. (As I see it, naturally.)

I am not begging anything. I am "telling it like it is"...

I am not fluctuating; rather, I am very consistant in my explanations.

Show me a post in which I actually ridiculed someone.

It is not so much important to get anyone to agree as it is to simply inform them of the truth.

You are a human being.

It is important that you know the truth.

It is far better if you are 'awake' than if you are 'asleep'.

I’m game for debate GaryA, but how about just on how a compass works by taking a piece of natural rock.

the sphere model is it point to north and south which it does if you hold it in your hand and east west.

Now how does it works on a flat earth model, from the drawings of the whole flat earth models south seems to be 360 degrees and north the center? what is east and west?
 
If I’m not mistaking the Bible describes the earth as round and circle, as well also with a east and a west.

on a flat earth what is north south east and west?

I’m open to change, . . .

May I suggest that what you ought to be open to is understanding...

Proverbs 4:

7 Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.

- "change" will take care of itself...

In other words, don't focus on pride, embarassment, disbelief, or anything else that is on the "periphery" of the issue. Focus only on getting a proper understanding of the thing.

Everything else will take care of itself.

It is wise to have the desire and inclination to know and understand the truth. It is honorable to search for the truth, so that you may know it. To know the truth gives occasion for/to wisdom.

Gary,

Why are you doing this? What you’re saying do look bad.

You really believe that the earth is flat?

If so, why are we making flight plans in accordance with a round earth? Why do we have to take special precautions above 60 degrees north?

Gary, why are you making a fool out of yourself?

Ok cool I can agree with that, though I’d like to know how the compass works on a flat earth. that is a simple devise using nothing but magnetical things, there can be no doubt about the truthfulness of magnetism it is found in nature.

Like the X-Files, the truth is out there. Good proverb you provided too as it is sound counsel in understanding the truth of the matter, whatever that may be.

What I’ve notice in this vid is what is being shown isn’t what I’ve seen all my life with my own eyes, in the morning and evening the sun appears at its largest size at sunset and sunrise. The moon does too

Gary,

Any flat earth perspective is eligible for a big old SMH.
 
speaking of sunsets and sunrises, wow these are amazing, regardless the shape of earth, :) especially the one starts at 2:14
 
Though the beauty of such color changes happens because, I do believe its the curvature of earth and the way the light travels and is cast only happens like that on a sphere earth.

and these are shown either way from sun going down it’s blueish to reddish and vis versa on sunrise.
but where’s the green I don’t see the green lol.

The "continuous" sequence is easily accomplished during a polar summer but is impossible to reproduce anywhere else.

You say I need to abandon what I've been taught and go by what I see, but that's exactly what I have done. I see the sun passing over the horizon frequently. It doesn't just get brighter and dimmer above the horizon.

What you don't realize is that - modern science is in large part a systematic design-and-engineering of unproven ideas - or, theory - promulgated to the masses as factual truth.

This video is an example of a pot calling a kettle black.

It is modern science that is made up of "assumption upon assumption" and "adjustment upon adjustment" - and is, in fact, "poor science"...

(phrases in quotes taken from video)

A lot of the things put forth in this video are simply assumption without fact. There are also videos to disprove them.

I haven't seen any flat-earth material that offers good science. I have seen ball-earth material with good science though.

I enjoyed watching the sunrise this morning. The glow of pinks and oranges on the clouds just prior was gorgeous, and the blaze as the large, extremely bright disc-shaped sun came over the horizon was simply amazing.

Flat earth shattered once again. It's a daily celebration of reality. :)
