Not fascinating. But if you are going to change people's beliefs, you will need to be able to have explanations for phenomena.
Ball earth has a hot core emanating heat from the core to the surface. Below the crust is a molten layer that provides elasticity and heat provides the energy for convection.
I'm not beholden to any model, but the explanations associated with ball earth make sense. That doesn't make it right, but it does make it reasonable.
I'm open to other explanations, but it's hard for me to accept alternatives that can't explain things that happen everyday.
My goal here isn't to tear down your theory. I just think a theory is made stronger when it answers more and not fewer of people's questions.
As soon as I create my molten lava proof submarine, I will be able to confirm or deny this plate shift science dogma. Until then, not sure how I'm gonna go 100 miles (or whatever altitude it is) below sea level to see it.
My goal isn't to change minds, that's where you got me wrong. There is a well written book for concave hollow earth, if people have an open mind on the subject, it's probably the best there is. If the book doesn't change people's minds, why should I bother? I find it fascinating though and believe these people were pioneers in many ways, but may have some faulty religious beliefs, but that is another topic.
Well, I don't think your mind will be changed, but to be perfectly straight, I don't see how earthquakes and volcanoes are pinnacle to this discussion. It's more of side topic, that will probably distract more, than benefit, and really will not persuade anyone's mind from changing.
It would be nice for me to be prepared for any question that pops up, but I lack the resources for that.
If you want to tear down the concave hollow earth theory, maybe ask questions that directly related to the earth's shape, rather than, things that will be almost impossible to prove, and don't really relate to shape. That's just my take.
I would encourage you to read the book and maybe draw questions or criticism that is in there. Asking random questions, will get you random answers.
Honestly, how is the average person gonna figure out why earthquakes happen? Just read a science book right? You took the answer straight from science class and offered no criticism, or personal insights on how you came to conclusion, except "it makes sense", or something very similar.
You obviously never seen this plates shift from underneath, so you really have no eye witness account. Maybe seen a video, but that's hardly proof with the age of photoshop.
"I'm not beholden to any model, but the explanations associated with ball earth make sense."
This is your personal bias.
I think there are many flaws with ball earth, and have pointed them out many times, in many threads. I will say, ball earth makes more sense, than flat earth, but it doesn't mean we live on the outside walls of the earth.
"Not fascinating. But if you are going to change people's beliefs, you will need to be able to have explanations for phenomena."
So, your just asking questions to test my knowledge. O.k. great! You got me on volcanoes and earthquakes. I feel so defeated. Hanging my head in shame. lol
There is 179 pages that covers a million topics on Concave Hollow Earth. How about you read the book, find something you disagree with, than state your reasons for disagreeing with. A page number would be helpful or not. I think you would be on the right track this way, if you want to discredit concave hollow earth. Asking random questions, that are near impossible to conduct experiments on to prove, seems rather disingenuous.
"Ball earth has a hot core emanating heat from the core to the surface. Below the crust is a molten layer that provides elasticity and heat provides the energy for convection."
You have any proof of this? Eye witness accounts? Web cams? I'm guessing this is science book stuff that you are supposed to just believe, and don't question. Not saying it's wrong, but would like to see some proof of these statements. This is a science topic, so show me the proof.
Stated another way, how would an average person discover for themselves, how earthquakes and volcanoes erupt? You would need x-ray glasses to see through earth.
Maybe I failed to explain to you how unreasonable your question is. I could possibly come up with an opinion on how these effects happen, but it would hardly aid in the shape of the earth discussion. I will refrain from the volcano and earthquakes question until a later day.
