Why do people think It's cool to wear your pants under your behind with a belt too and showing your underwear?
When my son was little 2/3 and his pants were always falling down we would always tell him "pull up your pants"
One day in the store the guy in line before us had the pants below buttocks, and in true 2/3 year old form ( innocently, but nice and loud for the whole section of the store to hear) he points and says "He needs to pull up his pants!" :LOL:
The guys face turned red as everyone was trying not to snicker and the girls with him were rolling.

Starbucks sells cookies, cake, muffins, sandwiches etc., also.

Just like McD's doesn't just sell 1/4 pounders...

The Bible does not actually say that the earth is flat - no; however, the way it describes the earth indicates such while denying that it could be a spinning ball flying through space...

Gary, do you believe that the moon or any of the Planets are spherical?

The moon may-or-may-not be spherical - but, probably is.

The sun may-or-may-not be spherical - but, probably is.

There are no planets - other than "wandering stars" as described/indicated in scripture.

Isa 40:22 It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in:

This verse has always told ,e tjhat the circle of the earth must extend in all directions rendering the understanding the earth is round, but that has always been just how I understand it.

26:7: ...he suspends the earth over nothing.

26:10: He drew a circular horizon on the face of the waters, at the boundary of light and darkness.
You need a better bible version...

(That also includes the book names. :p )

Nonetheless, 'horizon' does not refer to the "spherical silhouette of the earth"; rather, it refers to the extent of what can be seen from a given point on the earth.

Job 26:

10 He hath compassed the waters with bounds, until the day and night come to an end.

This is talking about setting a boundary around the oceans.

I believe it is referring to the ice wall.

I believe 'the circle of the earth' is referring to the ice wall - which surrounds the "inhabitable" area/part of the earth.

He is not seated in the circle of the earth rather on the circle of the earth, that little word seems to tell me all, but that is just I.
