Scripture Based Flat Earth Proposition

I've heard of those puzzles. I've tried to probe that with live chat "individuals" as a fun mental exercise, trying to find those parameters. I've seen some good AI, but I haven't researched what those puzzles are. Do you know anything about it, or have any links to them?

IF ONLY y'all could "escape the MATRIX" and see what I see...

That would require taking of the Red pill.

I believe the Bible shows us in no uncertain terms that the earth is not a spinning ball flying through space - and, 'flat' is the "default" observation.

Yet you refuse to make the necessary examinations for yourself that will completely and irrefutably disprove your North-centric flat Earth model.

So-called “satellite” phones have been found to have reception problems in countries like Kazakhstan with very few cell phone towers. If the Earth were a ball with 20,000+ satellites surrounding, such blackouts should not regularly occur in any rural countryside areas.

Red Herring.

Red Herring.

You would do well to escape to the far Southern Hemisphere for Christmas and see for yourself.

mmm - I wonder why "satellite" communication systems do not work out in the middle of the ocean...???

Consider the possibility that he is a human who is not interested in answering your question(s) if you are not willing to first address his question.

Right, wrong, or otherwise - consider the possibility.

As a matter of historical record, a small group of ships did exactly that a few hundred years ago - took two or three years and came up with a trip total distance of somewhere over 60,000 miles. (I do not remember the actual numbers reported.)

Look it up...

The circumference of Antarctica at 60 degrees latitude is 12,438 miles. However, early explorers like Captain James Cook and James Clark Ross, in attempting to circumnavigate Antarctica, took 3 to 4 years to do so, clocking distance traveled at 50,000 – 60,000 miles (over twice the circumference of the equator).

If I were to go and make careful observations - and [somehow] show you that the real truth was something other than what you [think you] see in the pictures - you would reject it.

So then - I am perfectly happy with you believing whatever you want to believe - I am quite certain that it will change when God shows you the truth - at which point, you will not be able to deny it.

The majority reason that I believe what I believe is because of what the Bible says about the earth - with personal observation added over-and-above that.

Believing what the Bible says is first - the personal observation is second.

Please do not ever forget this. If you want to change my mind, you must show me absolutely-beyond-a-shadow-of-a-doubt just-exactly-and-precisely how scripture actually "does not mean what it says" in the verses/passages where it describes [something] about the earth.

You and some others seem to dismiss out-of-hand what the Bible says about the earth - believing and trusting the opinions of man more than the Bible.

I am more readily inclined to question the opinions of man (even - and, especially - 'authority') rather than the Word of God.

I know you are going to say that it is a matter of interpretation. And, indeed - so it is - I most certainly agree.

However, I believe my interpretation to be correct and must stick to what I believe the Bible says.
