Must be expensive being a flat earther. When most airline companies are using the advantages a globe is offering, the flat earthers will have to go straight from A to B, and that might could be expensive if the flight was going from Barcelona to Miami
And what about the horizon?

Don't worry. They will continue to offer phone service...........flat or round

i agree with the scripture part for sure and some movies can be alittle elaborate, somewhat far out as far as being of spiritual truth and others can be of truth just depends on the intentions of the writer/director of the film. thus a person would surely need to be wise of it being a worldly temptation or not.
Once upon a time people feared crossing the ocean thinking it was flat and a ship would fall off the edge if traveled to far kind of crazy thinking in my opinion, good thing someone took the chance and faced that fear.
The latter part of being a fact that the devil has a person spellbound if focusing on what shape the earth is would fall in the same category in my opinion. The earth was created by God and not of worldly temptation, so if God created it than its ok to ponder focus or pursue the matter. it would be unhealthy to become sick or loose complete control of your mind in focusing on it though I doubt anybody as lost their mind being consumed by the thought of it though it could happen and I would say that wouldn't be a good idea to continue in the pursuit. but the only way evil would have a spellbound affect on the subject would be if a person thinks hell awaits for anyone who thinks the world is flat or sphere or whatever that's just nonsense to think that. to many times people think the devil has an affect on every single thought a person has of something in my view that would be nonsense as well.

Interesting proof of a circular world.
There is a sky at night tool which shows the stars at a point in the night.
As the earth rotates the stars move. Now certain stars are close to the point
of rotation so stay more still than those further away from this point.
You can see both the effect in a 24hr clock and the 6 month cycle.
Now if you cannot work this out, I suggest even the question itself is actually
beyond you. You could argue this is more an intelligence test than anything
to do with faith.

Newton won fame because using gravity, and the effects that are observed in
sky, he predicted the size of the earth, moon and sun in mass terms, along with
the distances away. Now each member has an effect on the other so you can
predict the number of planets etc.
The power of the theory was in its predictions of when the planets appear in the
sky etc. and where so accurate the victorians thought it defined all of physics,
until relativity changed everything again. The fact this is true, is because the
effect it had on everything and what we could or could not do was very profound.

Globe top, Flat bottom
There's an example for ya. Look it up, if you care.

Don't laugh just in your head. Do it out loud and be proud of it. I point and giggle at FE believers and others that believe silly notions. I'm somewhat hopeful there will be someone someday that comes along to talk about the Hollow Earth nonsense and uses YouTube videos and fringe forum posts to make that point too. That will be another fun discussion about physical laws.
