The earth is not what the world tells you it is.. it is what God tells you it is.

I'm so over this. Stubborn mules are not easily moved.

I'm moving on.

.
Yeah, me too. Time to move forward once again. Safe travels.

Yes, 100% impossible.

Uhhh, anyone who can google can find the many ways to calculate this. Also, when you said God told you the earth was flat, that's when I should have realized ok game over.

In the most popular Flat Earth Model, the outer edge of the Earth is bounded by an 'Ice Wall'. This wall prevents the oceans from spilling over the side of the Earth... The exact size of the Ice Wall varies between different Flat Earth Models. The traditional view is that the Ice Wall rises approximately 150 feet above sea level, preventing the ocean from spilling over the edge of the Earth. source
that's the surface of the earth, I'm asking about the depth or thickness, there has to be depth to contain the bottom of the seas.

Ah! Ok :) According to The Flat Earth Society (I used a search engine for this, as I am not a flat earther ;)): It is generally accepted to be the same as the distance from the Earth's crust to the inner core of a round Earth, about 6400km. What RE'ers (Round Earthers?) believe to the solid core of the Earth is actually the bottom of the disc. Another site added: Please remember that science itself is a corrupted methodology, and that any data appropriated must be done so with caution :oops: They say that because they themselves can only guess at dimensions, while borrowing data from other scientific sources.

It is really a simple math exercise. It is it impossible to determine the height of a building from a distance of 100 yards? Is it impossible to ascertain longitude and latitude? Or navigate at sea using the stars?

After struggling in a Geometry class years ago in Chicago, I believe math is, “of the Devil.” (Thats just a personal opinion about that one class, taught by a woman with a thick German accent)

I'm not sure about this. I skimmed through the article and got the points that the vaccinated are experiencing higher rates of infection. But, here in the US, the spikes in infection rates are in the unvaccinated camp, to the tune of about 97% of all new cases. That is an argument for the vaccine.

Now, I'm still not getting it, but you can certainly make a case for it.
If 100% of people are vaccinated then one catches COVID, which is possible, then 100% of victims were vaccinated. Statistics have to be looked at in context, or they can be misleading.

That is how I felt about my French class years ago in a suburb of Detroit. Taught by a woman with a thick French accent. Oui.

It doesn't sound creative? It sounds lame? Wow. So, you are using your own wisdom and the fake news to determine truth? Scripture is obviously teaching that the earth is immovable and covered by a water firmament. You believe NASA. I believe God.

Here's the thing... when God revealed to me that the earth is flat, immovable and covered by a firmament that nobody and nothing can break through, everything fell into place. Everything finally made sense. The lies the enemy tells are eventually found out. If something doesn't make sense, even though you have been taught it from childhood, it probably isn't true. Research, research, research.

'God revealed to me that the earth is flat' you said....and you're questioning our sources?

Years ago, an old gentleman by the name of Samuel Clemens made a statement to the effect, “there are lies, damn lies, and statistics.”

Another saying is "Figures don't lie but liars figure". Mark Twain would appreciate that I'm sure. Years and years ago my dad asked his boss for a raise. His boss said that the figures said there was not enough money to allow for a raise. My dad told his boss that about the figures. Didn't get the raise but a short time later got a fantastic job offer somewhere where he could be more appreciated.

My source is the Lord. He revealed this truth to me through His word and many other ways. Who reveals truth to you? One day we will all know the truth.

Jesus is the way, truth and life as he says in John 14:6.

Some of us already know the Truth, and His name is Jesus :)

Now you have to wonder whether it was the geometry or the accent which prevented you from grasping it. BTW Geometry is very logical and elegant.
