I'm done with Flat Earth conversations, until they come up with a working model, that can be tested. Until then, the Flat Earth isn't even a model, it's just a conspiracy theory in every sense.

When globalist says, the earth is a planet, they are lying. Just like they believe the sun is the center of the universe, instead of God. The universe is the earth, and inside the earth is the heavens. There isn't multiple galaxies. This is NASA magic, that most people fall for.

If you think flat earthers loose all credibility when they claim other bodies in the solar system are not flat, wait until you hear what mainstream science says, about the universe. They are now claiming the universe is flat. Look it up. The lies pile higher, than the U.S. national debt. lol
Who was the man who made a career claiming the universe was a cube? I'll have to look for that as your comment just brought him to mind.

I wonder if "these people" who told our children that they came from monkeys will need to give account for every word they uttered?
Below is a repost from earlier. (related to your point)


The Flat Earth theory was mostly invented and promoted by evolutionists for the purpose of slandering Christians.

  • "The flat earth remained clearly in the realm of fiction until after Darwin published his Origin of Species in 1859. Two of Darwin’s followers then elevated it to a historical claim in books defending Darwinism and attacking Christianity: John Draper’s The History of the Conflict Between Religion and Science (1874), and Andrew Dickson White’s A History of the Warfare of Science with Theology in Christendom (1896).
    So defenders of Darwinism who ridicule their critics for being like believers in a flat earth are being misled by a myth that Darwinists themselves helped to create."[1]

"Christianity did not invent or promote the myth of the flat Earth." Who invented the flat Earth? (ChristianAnswers.net)

'The reason for promoting both the specific lie about the sphericity of the earth and the general lie that religion and science are in natural and eternal conflict in Western society, is to defend Darwinism. The answer is really only slightly more complicated than that bald statement. The flat-earth lie was ammunition against the creationists. The argument was simple and powerful, if not elegant: "Look how stupid these Christians are. They are always getting in the way of science and progress. These people who deny evolution today are exactly the same sort of people as those idiots who for at least a thousand years denied that the earth was round. How stupid can you get?"'

The Myth of the Flat Earth, by Jeffrey Burton Russell.


"What becomes apparent when perusing flat-earthers’ numerous websites and YouTube videos is that many are,
indeed, motivated by the Bible, in which they claim ‘evidence’ for the world’s flatness can be found"

Amen. First Darwinism and Big Bang Theory, next is Ancient Alien Intervention model.

My favorite line by Kent Hovind, well, I think he said this....

"Nothing exploded".

How anyone believes nothing exploded, to explain the starting of our solar system, is beyond stupid. Remember the last time nothing exploded? Never! lol

If this is so, then I shall not condemn them.

There's a meme that's circulated on the net for years.
''THE BIBLE WAS WRITTEN BY THE SAME PEOPLE WHO THOUGHT THE EARTH WAS FLAT''

They shall answer for every word.

Kent Hovind is a creationist, but he does a good job of breaking down mainstream science, so Christians can have a good laugh at Macro-evolution.

Here is one of his videos, if you have time, you should give it a watch some day.


At the 7 minute mark he talks about the "Big Bang" and how stupid it is.

139 pages. 😳 Debating a lie.

Well one day, the globalist will be proven wrong, for all to see. Most people already know the Flat Earth is a conspiracy theory.

I missed the first one hundred pages, but probably glad it was this way. I have spent to much time on this thread already, but astronomy is so interesting to me.

I want to thank everyone for not laughing at me for talking about the Concave Hollow Earth, most people do when I discuss this off the net. Whenever I do my first real life experiment to prove Concave Earth, it will be historic. Well, at least I hope so.

Personally, I reserve that label for those who mutilate the Gospel and speak against the Spirit. I will not condemn them for questioning those who have a reputation for propaganda generation and lies.
They claim the Bible supports their falsehood.

...and having great fun, stimulating, challenging, and educational discussions with our fellow brethren in the Faith.
Great fun? Debating a lie conceived to discredit our faith and blaspheme the Bible.

I don't condemn them either. I do rebuke their false narrative though.
The Bible has to be presented by us as the ultimate truth. Not as the source of a hoax.
I agree. Rebuking them for pushing the lie that was born to mock and devalue our faith is not condemnation of the perpetrators.
Condemnation is left to God at their judgement.

We're to defend truth and the scripture. Not enjoy mixing with those who blaspheme God's creation and mock his work.

Well one day, the globalist will be proven wrong, for all to see.

Quite a few folk were confident that the Covid data would eventually prove
Dr. Anthony Fauci's science to be wrong, and sure enough, in less than 2
years time, it did. (Not to mention exposing the good doctor to be a medical
quack with so little integrity as to be fit for little else than a cell in San Quentin.)

In contrast; 65 years of multi-national exploration in space have gone by since the
first Sputnik, and the mountains of data accumulated in those many years-- clear
on up to Capt. Kirk's adventure aboard a Blue Origin vehicle --has consistently proven
the Earth to be shaped like a ball; while consistently proving the flatters, the cubers,
and the concavers to be guilty of attempting to gaslight the rest of us.
