the earth is flat...apparently

[Damocles]

Wolves in sheep’s clothing have pulled the wool over our eyes. For almost 500 years, the masses have been thoroughly deceived by a cosmic fairy-tale of astronomical proportions. We have been taught a falsehood so gigantic and diabolical that it has blinded us from our own experience and common sense, from seeing the world and the universe as they truly are. Through pseudo-science books and programs, mass media and public education, universities and government propaganda, the world has been systematically brain-washed, slowly indoctrinated over centuries into the unquestioning belief of the greatest lie of all time.

Can you provide a practical evidential example of a body of water conforming to the exterior of a shape?

Please explain why trigonometry works on Earth.

Thank you.

Yes. The sea conforming to the exterior of the Earth.

What sort of volume is required for this conformity?...I red somewhere that huge masses of contained water, like lakes/lochs are relatively flat, and exhibit little curvature....
Gravity, mass and rotation/spin holds it all together obv...

What's underneath our flat Earth? And how deep is it? How do you get to the other side? A bungie jump from New Zealand?

It's turtles mate....turtles all the way down...

You seem like a clued up chap, so, what is the square root of 2?

Brush up your Pythagoras .....Trig isn't always perfect, there are some fudges, i.e irrational numbers.

Spherical trigonometry when applied to the Earth is close enough to be considered perfect on scales. Otherwise there'd be some very lost ships.

Anyway this is really a stupid discussion.

Either one of two things is true:

The entire body of knowledge that we call science is false and we've managed to conceal this fact OR the flat Earth theory is false.

You lads can pick whichever makes you feel happier.

Thanks, didn't know I needed your fkin blessing.
