I think we all can think of someone that we wish would fall off the edge of the world. :ROFL:

True. That pesky ice wall just gets in the way though. :mad:

Most believers in a flat Earth think the planet is a flat disk surrounded by an ice wall.

I mean who do the ancient Greeks think we are anyway? The nerve of them proving the earth is round.

Quote from a flat earth conference:
At this conference, they were presenting their scientific evidence for such a disk. One of the more interesting pieces of evidence came from speaker Darren Nesbit, who referred to the "Pac-Man effect" as the reason why planes don't fall off the edge of a flat Earth, according to the science news website Physics-Astronomy.org. When a plane or other object reaches the edge of the horizon, such as when Pac-Man reaches the end of the screen, that object will teleport from one side of the planet to the other, a la Pac-Man entering from the other side of the screen.

Pac-Man. That's deep.

I used to play pacman on my game watch.
 
I don't know. I have no desire to go to space.
I'm amazed when the Lord shows me Himself! I'm spoiled for anything else.

There is no 'globe' in my 'flat'. :giggle:

And, Ed did not say that.

And, the last several of his and my posts (for the most part) are not really even focused on FE; rather, on everything else. (moon landing, 9/11, COVID, etc.)

Just how much of what has been posted are you misconstruing because you feel threatened and have your emotions all stirred up?

Your amusement will turn to amazement when God shows you the truth.

There is nothing flat in my sphere! Lol

When you say 'if' people understand etc, you mean understand it as do you. that's why, pretty much., the back and forth really just eats up time. That's my position and to be sure, I have done my 'due diligence' with the back and forth and I just have had enough of it.

I know just exactly what you mean. I am also really tired of having my time wasted by people who are not willing to do a certain amount of their own research. I do not mind so much trying to help someone understand the FE model better if I am convinced that they are sincere in their asking.

I mean understand it according to the truth of reality - as in - awake-and-aware (not 'woke' :rolleyes: ) - not asleep in the MATRIX, as-it-were - having taken the red pill, with eyes wide open.

The following is just an observation, to make a point.

I know that your comment above the image was meant to be amusing. And, it is. It is funny. I LOL when I read it - partly because it is funny - partly because it is somewhat inaccurate. (But, it is still funny.)

It is not the ice wall that would prevent people from "falling off the edge of the world"; rather, it is the extremely cold and harsh landscape between the ice wall and the 'edge'. (if that is what is really there; we do not really know)

And, it is at least several hundred miles - and, could be thousands of miles (or more?) - from the ice wall to the 'edge'. (we do not really know how far it is)

The statement under the picture is also incorrect. The 'disk' is not what is surrounded by an ice wall. But, hey - anyone who would use the word 'planet' in a statement like that - either does not understand the FE model very well at all - or - they are deliberately intending to make a derogatory remark against it. So - hey, whatever...

The image is almost totally wrong.

The sun, moon, and stars are wrong.

The waterfalls are wrong.

There is no ice wall.

It is basically flat and has a dome - these two things are the extent of what is actually accurate in the depiction of the image.

The fact that there is such a mismatch between the image and the statement below it is telling...

All of this together (concerning the image and the statement under it; not your statement above it) indicates that it is either it is intended as deliberate misinformation propaganda or it is simply really ignorant.

What I was trying to get across here is this:
All our arguing over something that doesn't really matter only gives THEM, the Agnostics and Atheists, more of an excuse for being the way they are... If the world is round, I got to live on it. If the world is flat, I still got to live on it. Does it effect my Salvation to believe one over the other? As far as I can tell, it doesn't.

It's about being right...pride!

Fair enough, but this thread is about whether or not the earth is flat, so....

But I think I just referred to your moon landing disagreement? Anyway, not worth the back and forth but I mean that generally
