Sure, and so very funny. You do not know if the earth is flat, oval or whatever. You take it on faith, you have been indocterinated the oval thing. You have never ever contemplated it. And regardless of shape, what would it matter? You still walk around as today, flat some places, hilly other places, water runs as it does. The sun shines, there are sometimes cloudy, sometimes it rains, and the idiotwind keeps on blowing our hats of our heads. Puck or egg is irrelevant.

Perhaps you should ask the people who just spent 3 days in space. or the 500 people before them, who know that the earth is a sphere. Or the ancient Greeks, who calculated the diameter of the earth almost exactly. It is easy to know if the world is flat or not. It is a sphere. I've traveled most of it. If it ended somewhere, I would have fallen off.

I argue the people who "spent 3 days in space" and 500 before them, are unreliable as they work for a discredited organisation (or one related to it). Remember, science is testable and repeatable. NASA "photos" obviously are not.

As for the Greeks, circular reasoning leads to circular conclusions. In their calculation of Earth's diameter, they assumed a spherical Earth. Therefore, this cannot be used as "proof" the Earth is a ball. The same calculations can be done for a Flat Earth, and it simply "proves" the sun is closer and/or smaller than the heliocentric theory requires.

Congrats, you just proved that you have been indocterinated by the ovalists, and do not even know what proof means. And why would I trust anybody from the US authorities, quite frankly I would trust a pickpocketer over them, if I had a bike that somebody had to watch over while I was at the store. I know it is comforting for you to think of the earth as oval, but false comfort. It does not matter, changes nothing if the shape is different. Do the calculations yourself, test what you have been indocterinated. Know for thyself, if it is important enough for you.
