The Earth Is Flat - Seriously ........

[Gizmonster]

.... well, so my friend would have me believe.
He's got so engrossed in reading these conspiracy theories, he believes almost any conspiracy theory going.

Granted, some of them MIGHT have some credibility, but a flat earth ..... seriously ??

So ALL the photographs we've ever seen of a round earth are fake and all the greats. viz; Nicolaus Copernicus, Galileo Galilei, Sir Isaac Newton were all wrong ..... either that, or they were part of an elaborate cover up, dating back centuries.

Out of curiosity, I Googled and came up with:
https://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/

.... some interesting stuff in there, especially if you want a good laugh :)

Of course the earth is flat ; otherwise people in Australia would be walking upside down

"all the greats"... well, they weren't so great, they've all got it wrong. I think the earth isn't exactly flat, it's more downhill.

PMSL - never actually considered that Bazile :P

Please don't give them more evidence to back up their claims lol :P

There are people that really believe that the earth is flat !

I'm relieved, hills do my knees no good at all.

Light bends so you think you are looking at the curved surface of a globe but it's all nonsense. In fact the world goes on forever in all directions, it just repeats itself again and again so you think you've gone around the world and returned to where you were; but beware you don't bump into your local doppelgänger.

I read a couple of posts, and then lost the will to live. Oh jeez. Scary people out there.

Not you ABers, by the way. The people on the Flat Earth Society.

I posted this a week or so back

See how far you can read without laughing out loud! I managed to get to the bit where it says
'if the Earth was a ball, aircraft would have to dip their noses down every few miles to avoid flying off into space'

ABers is a 'given' without saying, Jo.

[Cloverjo]

Oh Lordy. Thanks eddy for the laugh. :)

[Gizmonster]

Cheers for that link Eddie - I've actually just commented on one of the youtube videos as their maths doesn't add up .... I've wasted far too much time on this in the past few days .... although it has given me a good laugh lol :P

What if half of the theories were true!?? I guess the tricky part would be to know which half ;-)
