Does the Bible support the idea of a spinning ball earth flying through space, or is that a Satanic, Masonic lie?

Do you have proof of this? I don't consider seismic waves to be proof of Earth's inner core. Any more than you consider the blue sky to be proof of Earth's firmament.
as well as material that come out of volcanoes from deep in the foundations of the earth

This video will answer your question.

You only need to watch it for a couple of mins to get the message.

Refer to my original disclaimer, where I pointed out that Darwin popularised evolution, rather than invented it. But it's still known as Darwin's theory of evolution, because he formalised it as a theory. He didn't need anyone else. That's how science works.
You said he came up with it. He did not. Scientists were evaluating the idea of evolution before Darwin.

You have a serious problem admitting when you are wrong. Like I said before...
you should stick with regular apologetics. You are good at that.

I believe that @GaryA has an engineering background. He is also quite articulate
and respectful of others, even if they don't agree with his perceptions.
I had to red x this, because what you have said here was so very very far from my experience... I have had
Gary on ignore for a long time because of the nastiness of his response to an earnest question from me.
And it is not like we had been engaged in any back and forths on the matter before that, either. Nope.
Just out of the blue he hit me with a boat load of vitriol and many false accusations. Totally disrespectful.

you can't make that assumption unless you've studied seismic waves for years and you are a professor in geology and collected data, and saw there general flow, and pattern

How the waves take different directions through different layers.

Or examined different material coming up from the earths mantle, and studying how the same waves travel through them.

Plus the simple question friend is if the earth doesn't move, what is an earth quake.

How do mountains form

Why are the tectonic plates moving.

How does condensed liquid inner mantle come out in volcanoes and outer core

why have the continents
Shifted over the years and are still moving.

What caused mount Everest to rise as big as it did.

all of this can be proven by science.

The simplicity of God's creation is expressed in a simple scientific explanation by God, to will his children on to learn science.

Your only expressing God's simple scientific expressions over exhausted scientific proven facts of God's simple scientific quotes.

YOU HAVEN'T GOT VERY FAR IN SCIENCE SINCE YOU STILL CAN'T TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A FLAT HORIZONTAL HORIZON YOU CAN SEE AND A CURVED ONE YOU CAN'T SEE.

If, as FE’s say, any picture or video contrary to their beliefs is untrustworthy due to manipulation, then why would non FE’s trust any of your pictures or videos, for the same reasoning?

You need to understand that the horizon is more about the way our eyes work and the way we see things than it is about a hard-limit fixed distance based on 'curvature'. If you have not realized yet that in different contexts-and-situations the distance to the horizon varies (sometimes greatly) - you are not paying very good attention at all...
The horizon is simply the farthest-visible surface, no matter the distance. In hilly terrain it might be a few hundred feet away, while on the ocean it is several miles away, and near (but not among) mountains, the distance could be a hundred miles or more.
We both say the exact same thing - yet, I am wrong and you are right? What is that all about???

The horizon is simply the farthest-visible surface, no matter the distance.
I am not so sure you really [carefully] read what I post. Your mind is made up before you read it - your reaction seems to be determined by how many times I use italic or bold fonts to illustrate what I intend to get across - or some such silly and unnecessary thing... :rolleyes:

No proof of floating in space (or space itself, for that matter). NASA underwater pool walks and green-screen astro-not actor-batics excluded, obviously.
Your refusal to accept proof does not equate with lack of proof.

IOW just because you close your eyes it doesn't mean it's dark out.

So seeing the sun just above the horizon doesn't convince you that you can see just as far 'laterally' as 'vertically'?
No, it does not. The distance seen laterally is not nearly as far as the distance seen vertically.
