But you’re willing to go against every single bit of scientific evidence presented by renowned scientists all across the world, calling it a conspiracy?

Yes I am, do you believe we came from nothing

... if the earth is flat how can we reach Russia by flying west across Alaska or alternatively go east across europe and reach the same place. Third whats underneath , how thick is it, why would there be land and people on one side and not the other ?

In trepidation that it'll unleash more hodgepodge from hodge...

It's a mobius strip!

Eh? What madness are you suggesting now?

Yes. Yes I do.

What’s that got to do with the shape of the Earth though?

Cheers.? Though if thats what flat earthers beleive, what to they think happens in the hole in the centre, think I'm giving this too much thought actually, I'm just astounded people really beleive this stuff at fist I though hodge was just on a wind up, seems not

Nope. You can test this for yourself and the "bulge", i.e. curvature of the water is always there. So not like your bath at all.

Stop clutching at straws with this ridiculous notion of yours, seriously. It's just plain silly and I am sure you're not really that silly.

I'm far from silly and I'm not clutching at straws, water does not bend or curve and curtainly doesn't conform to the extiria of an object it merely takes the shape of it's container.

 

[blueparrot]

Yes. Yes I do.

Depends what you mean by nothing, we came from something, but not sure what hodge means by coming from nothing.

 

[aguero93:20]

What religions believe in a flat Earth?

None of the major ones anymore, they've all accepted it's spherical.

 

[squirtyflower]

Eh? What madness are you suggesting now?

Creationist alert!

No. Just no. The ignorant remark is yours.

You can see it’s round for yourself by going to the sea side and watching a boat move away and “over” the horizon from the bottom up.

Or, try and find a friend in the America’s or East Asia and try calling them at 6am or 6pm your time and asking how light or dark it is outside and seeing if it matches what you see, other they could be NASA/government stooges as well.

If you don’t trust them as they are most certainly going to lie to you then you could always rent yourself a boat (as we can’t trust the airline industry as they must be in on it as well) and travel up to the artic circle this week. You’ll notice the sun won’t actually go down below the horizon, then come back on here and explain to us ignorant folk what would explain that.

Better yet, whilst you’re up there, take a really really long walk and just keep going.

Or see what type of shadow Earth casts on the moon - circular. Only one type of 3-D shape makes a circular shadow - a sphere.
