Does this guy remind anyone of the guy who said the Holy Spirit manifests as an orb?

Yes, yes, yes and yes. :) The "South pole" so named does not exist as a pole, but is really just the opposite direction to North.

I suppose one might assume an infinite Flat Earth to do away with the idea of an edge, but I don't like the idea of an infinite creation.
"Don't like the idea". The earth has been traversed, measured, mapped and observed over a period of at least two thousand years. No one has seen a flat earth. Countless have seen/measured/mapped the globe earth. Facts contradict your ideas. You cannot accept this truth because you have invested too much of your ego into believing lies.

You ignore the obvious along with the claims of Flat Earthers that people have never traversed the "south pole". I remember I demonstrated to you how radio waves provided evidence against a Ball Earth, but you couldn't understand the math.

I doubt you then will understand this, where there is no math. Why the world-wide government enforcement against exploring Antarctica? Why isn't Antarctica used as a shortcut for flights? Ball-Earthers can't provide satisfying answers to these questions, but you are free to ignore them.

Several companies sell excursion trips to explore Antarctica.

Professor Dave goes through Eric's mind control memes and picks them off...




This video right here pretty much answers every flat earth meme and talking point, that flat earthers have. If they (flat earthers) choose to not to watch the video, because Professor Dave has studied science at university, than that is there choice.

Do you know anything about history? People have sailed around Antarctica. Of course, you call them liars. People have explored Antarctica, including
Sir Robert Falcon Scott (1868-1912)
Roald Amundsen (1872-1928)
Sir Ernest Shackleton (1874-1922)
Sir James Clark Ross (1800-1862)
Sir Douglas Mawson (1882-1958)
Sir Edmund Hillary (1919-2008)

None of them came back and said, "Hey, the world is flat!" And FYI, NASA was not in existence then. People are free to visit the Antarctic, so your premise is false. It's a potentially deadly place, so tour guides need to be approved. That's all there is to it. You could go yourself, but that would threaten your self deception with the truth.

Radio waves prove the ball earth. Your maths is simply wrong. I know, because radio and radar were my specialties in the RAN. That the earth is a ball is demonstrable by real world physical characteristics. You don't need a maths degree, simply open your eyes and observe.

To do that, the airplane would have to fly south. No airplane ever crosses over the South pole in Antarctica to make a shortcut to its destination. I think there was alleged to be one once, but it was a claim with very little (no?) evidence. If the Earth were a ball, planes should be short-cutting over Antarctica (i.e. the South pole) all the time. They're certainly not.
pretty sure it's been pointed out in previous conspiracy threads, but the truth is that there are several companies who offer south pole flights and trips all the time as tourism, as well as dozens of scientific excursions every year from many different nations that you are more than welcome to sign up and take part in.

one example from literally 2 seconds of googling linked below:

I'm pretty sure it's been pointed out every time this alleged "truth" has been raised by ball-Earthers, that the flights do not cross the actual "south pole" and most certainly don't take a short cut through Antarctica. Don't believe everything you Google, and do try to debate the actual arguments made by Flat Earthers and not straw men of your choosing.

You couldn't prove it wrong. You just posted a lot of text expressing your opinion that you think you did. Those who confuse opinion for mathematics usually don't know mathematics.

the one i linked does, and any and every one of such regular trips open to anyone willing to go disproves the whole 'ice wall' idea.

1) A tour which requires a government permit is *not* exploration.
2) The tour map provided on the link page you gave does not even allegedly cross the "south pole".

I'm not going to respond to your comments in future unless you include some sort of evidence with your claims, as it seems to me that you are just posting obvious falsehoods that are easily refuted with a few minutes investigation.

I'm lousy at maths but I know how radio waves work. I know that at higher frequencies, radio waves have no ground wave, so are line of sight. Australia spent a fortune and decades designing and building an over the horizon radar system. If the earth was flat, it would not be necessary.

As I've said before, I don't write this to try and convince you. That is impossible. I do write the truth just in case someone is wondering about the shape of the earth. It's a globe. That's so obvious that only the deluded would think otherwise.
