ISS 250 miles above the earth, moon 240,000 miles. I suggest the field of view might be an issue.

ISS 250 miles above earth. Moon 250,000 miles above. Would that have anything to do with difficulty taking shots of earth and moon? I suspect so. Perhaps someone can enlighten us. I was 17 when men first walked on the moon. Some of those who have walked on the moon are/were born again Christians. I would not like to have to explain to God why I called His people liars.
Just as one of your photos demonstrates, distance has nothing to do with seeing such a large object. The earth is allegedly spinning and the ISS is spinning around that which is spinning. Therefore, the moon will ALWAYS appear on the crest of the earth as some point or another, just as the moon always appears on the crest of the earth from our vantage point.
As for explaining why I thought "Christians" were lying, two things:
1) - There will be no need for such explaining. The Power of God transcends such an idea.
2) - If there is to be discussion, my guess is that He will be proud that I didn't, and do not, believe every little thing that "Christians" say. Christians have had the most horrific, ugly impact on my life more so than any other group of people.

We've already done the Flat Earth junk in that thread:

Could we please let 23 pages (and counting) of that thread be enough, and not bring FE theory into this thread too?

So 600 people and at least six born again Christians have lied about the earth being a globe? You really believe that every one of those people got together and colluded deceive the people of earth?
I'm sorry that you've had bad experiences with Christians. I've had my fair share too. That does not make every Christian a liar or false witness.
I have no idea what your first point means.

I didn't realize that you guys wanted to talk about flat earth versus round earth. I'm not into that stuff.
Now we'd have to get into what it means to be a True Jew, or, a True Christian. I've only met a couple of people that understand what it means to be "Born again" and what it entails. Remnant. The Remnant is small, hence, very few True Jews, or, True Christians.
Thanks
I don't recall accusing anyone of lying. Those are your words . . . not mine.
You mentioned something about having to explain to God why I thought people were liars. I am stating that when in the presence of God, there is no explanation. When in His presence, the Truth is already known. There isn't going to be any back and forth discussion with God, for things are revealed and made known, not discussed.
Again, I'm not concerned with flat earth / round earth nonsense. Discussing that crap is a waste of time. What I'm getting at is that I don't believe that these videos are real. It all looks incredibly fake, just as the moon videos are fake, just as the China moon landing videos are fake. That's all.
Ok . . . let the abusive "christian" attacks begin.
