The earth is flat this is undeniable, but it is also round, jagged, pointy, and etc.

The Earth is in bad shape at present. Instead of debating whether its round or flat how about doing something practical
about its condition. God put us here to look after it not debate about it

For me I loved looking into this. What I always wondered and falls out side of any of this is.. the people that say God show'd them this or that. That were looking down at the earth.. those kind of stories that I take with a grain of salt. But what got me... no one saw a flat earth. HAHA does make anything true just.. interesting.

If the earth is flat perhaps we could collect all the plastic garbage polluting it and push it off the edge. Flat earth believers should volunteer for this task led by that irritating child who has been lecturing all and sundry about how wicked we all are whilst using the
same means of transport she hates to reach her venues.

Go to the deep of the ocean on a boat of course, and experience the question if the earth is really flat or round it’s hard to tell by inches above the surface.

Flat Earthers think about what they have been told to believe.

Ball Earthers just believe what they are told.
Flat earthers take pride in their own supposed enlightenment and arrogantly look down on those who don't blindly accept their Theory.

I don't think that I have even heard of any FEer having that "blindly accept" attitude. The FE "motto" is "research it"...

Most if not all FEers want you to "see it for yourself" (not blindly accept anything).

No - that is not true. Some perhaps, but not all.
Every flat earther I have ever witnessed absolutely 100% acts that way. They're like little drones all programmed to be the same person.
And all react either negatively, or completely ignore any evidences used to counter their ideas.
A motto is just a collection of words and can easily be discarded. Every flat earther I've seen posts a you tube video, a couple pics and some random science and thinks people should automatically accept off of that. And when people argue they don't take it well. Nothing about them suggests researching anything.

and no, nothing wrong with questioning things as long as you and me and who ever else does can accept answers we do not like or agree with ..
Are you able to accept [even] the possibility that the following verse is true and that -- you -- me -- and everyone else on earth -- has been deceived by Satan?

Revelation 12:

9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

About what kind of things - and, to what extent - might Satan [be able to] deceive the whole world?

now, if you remember, I told you a long time ago that many of you flat earthers say that to be a " true Christian", you have to believe in flat earth.

you denied this, scolded me for saying so. now. here you are saying it.

there are thousands of people who think that there 57 different genders, drag queen story time for kids is a good thing, Bernie sanders campaign staffers saying that folks who resist socialism should be put in concentration camps, but no, let's ignore all these and many more things, and argue over if the earth is flat...

{ I have never ever told anyone that - and, do not understand how you got that from my post you quoted. }

{ No, I am not. I scolded you??? Can you show me that post? }

The post you quoted was intended to encourage people to ask themselves if they were willing to take what the Bible says at face value.

(Or would they rather just ignore the 'uncomfortable' parts?)

Those who want to know the truth - "even if it hurts" - will 'embrace' it - and try to understand what the Bible is saying to them.

It is meant to be thought-provoking - not an argument.
