    If the Earth were flat---

    FE like to use their "powers" of observation. Please explain how the stars in the Northern Hemisphere rotate counter-clockwise and the stars in the Southern Hemisphere rotate clockwise. This is a simple and indisputable observation which the FE model cannot explain. The Earth is a globe that...

    If the Earth were flat---

    There is no such thing as a magnetic North Pole without there being a magnetic South pole. The magnetic poles on the Earth are at a point source, a particular fixed localised place. There has to be a corresponding South Magnetic pole, a point at a particular location. Therefore there can be no...

    If the Earth were flat---

    Simply because my dear Lynx, nobody has ever addressed the issues. Most of what I see here is emotional and sarcastic comment. Not objective science, and therefore there are no conclusions. (such as "Flat Earth" is unsubstantiated nonsense. Why are we even "discussing it?) I will not post...

    If the Earth were flat---

    Ok. Here is a list of things that are real scientific objections to the FE idea. No one, and I say again, NO ONE on this forum, has bothered to address even one of these ideas. My simple question is, why doesn't anybody even bother to post on these issues? There is an endless run of uninformed...

    Sorry the link didn't work for you. It works for me if I just press on the play button from this chat. Well done for finding it anyway. Interesting comment Lynx, - "Nice but futile". What part of Winger's analysis of scripture did you disagree with? and who wrote that saying you quoted? But...

    If the Earth were flat---

    So, have you actually done this "experiment"? It is mere words until there is empirical data. Actually the opposite is the truth, as observed by any telescope setup 6 months apart to observe the stars. We live on a farm in Western NSW, Australia, and the visible constellations are different in...

    If the Earth were flat---

    Yes, that is what they say. Because they believe the sun is very, very small. The relative dimensions are what is important. If the Earth was the size of a pea, the Sun would be the size of a basketball. Have you seen Louie Giglio's "If The Earth Was A Golf Ball" ?

    There have been 9 official trips circumnavigating the Earth in a N-S direction from North Pole to South Pole. Last one on 12 July 2019 A Gulf Stream jet took 46.5 hours. A record Not much point doing that, except to say you have done it. There are not many tourist destinations in that...

    http://www.flat-earther.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/Azimuthal_equidistant_projection_SW.jpg It is interesting to note that this map has 24 clockwise divisions. Could that have something to do with the rotation of the Earth every 24 hours? And there are 12 concentric circles starting at...

    If the Earth were flat---

    If the Earth was flat, everywhere on the Earth would see the sun at the same time. from Australia to England. We would all see the sun "rise" at the same. Obviously does not happen. Flat earthers, please explain why that does not happen. Also, please explain why the sun never sets during...

    If the Earth were flat---

    Good question GaryA. There is more landmass in the Northern hemisphere than in the Southern hemisphere. Land absorbs heat from the sun quicker than water, and so radiates it back into the atmosphere quicker. Thus the Northern hemisphere is warmer than the Southern hemisphere. (There are other...

    Here is a list of things the Flat Earth Theory cannot explain: Eclipses Phases of the Moon Tides Meteors and comets Why the planets "wander" Solar flares Why we can have different seasons on the earth at the same time Why different star constellations are visible from different latitudes Why...

    If the Earth were flat---

    All Flat Earthers must stop using these words: "Atmosphere", "hemisphere", "ionosphere"... also Longitude and Lattitude which are based on a spherical concept; And they must abandon the scientific method, measurement of time, gravity ("So why do things fall down"), the concept of "seasons", the...
