How to prove that the Earth is flat, and not a sphere...

Read the previous three posts.

(especially post #1279)

The moon does pull on everything including us. However we're a solid so it's not something you can notice. Gravity pulls us down to the earth at a greater force.

Water is a liquid and so it's easier to manipulate and we can see it move.

That's a very simplistic and, frankly, ignorant assessment of the situation.

Does the moon lift the ocean out of its basins? No. The water is still bound by Earth's gravity, as are we. The volume of water that is moved in tidal flows is very small compared to the entire volume of the oceans. Because the oceans are so vast, we are able to notice the effects. We don't notice the effects on relatively tiny objects such as raindrops, clouds, and ourselves.

Some people very much notice the effects of the moon's pull within themselves

Others call it "lunacy"

You are not understanding the physics...

And you are? Oh, bring it on! Explain the physics for us, O wise one!

Perhaps, one of these days, when I have enough time to spend on it...

BTW - there is a difference between 'knowledge', 'understanding', and 'wisdom'. Don't get 'em confused.

Yet, the moon is able to "lift" the oceans enough to raise the water level several feet so that the tides come in???

Modern science says the gravitational force of the moon "pulls" the ocean waters - causing them to 'swell' - shifting the waters - causing the tides to come in at a height difference of several feet.

No matter how you look at it, it is still a massive amount of water being moved.

Do you realize just how much water has to be moved to raise the water level several feet?

In other words, you agree with me 100% that this represents the movement of huge massive amounts of water...?

BUT YOU SHOULD!

That is the point.

The same [gravitational] force would be applied to raindrops, butterflies, and soap bubbles.

The same force applied to the water in a human brain would no-doubt kill the person.

If you say you agree with modern science, then you believe the gravitational force of the moon is able to overcome the localized gravitational force of a much larger and more massive earth - enough to 'swell' and shift ocean waters to cause several-feet-changes in tides - from a great remote distance out in space - while having no effect whatsoever on raindrops, butterflies, bees, flies, gnats, or floating soap bubbles.

That there is hilarious!

Gary, this video puts an end to the flat earth theory.

The boat is sinking, bottom first. If the earth is flat, the boat would just shrink in size, disagree?

If you question the video, you can easily try this experiment in a large body of water, lake, or a calm day at sea.




Proves concave earth also, since in a concave earth, you will be always sinking from a point, while a convex earth, the the boat would be rising.

Comments?

OK, I'll bite. If we are on the inside of a concave earth, like the flat earth, nothing would go over the horizon. Travel on the surface in any direction, and you will disappear bottom to top as you travel over the horizon. I have spent many days on the bridge of a ship, and observed many ships do just that. That one observable fact debunks all flat earth and concave earth theories.

The earth is round. Accept it and move on.

You don't understand the concave earth my friend.

Here is a model for you to look at.



Ever heard of the term mother earth? Well, the mother earth saying, works much better with a concave earth model.

Covex earth, living on the outside example


This hill represents in this demonstration, the ocean on a convex earth. The view of the ship at the top would disappear, the further it moves away from you.



This meteroid hole represents a concave earth (living inside the earth), you would lose the view of the ships bottom, the further it travels.

Think it through, it's a difficult concept. I almost had an aneurysm figuring this out. Give it at least five minutes, before you respond.

Concave earth doesn't pass muster on any front.

How so again? You didn't give it 5 minutes.

Take a laser and point it perpendicular to your position. If you observe it from a point on either side of it, it will never touch the ground again, nor will it be parallel to the surface of the earth.

Concave earth doesn't pass muster on any front.

You haven't debunked the facts.
