I've noticed that the Flat Earth Theory has taken a deep breath this year, causing more people to be interested in the 'conspiracy theories' surrounding NASA. To start, I don't strongly believe, nor strongly disbelieve Flat Earth. I like the idea of it. I'm a huge folk tale lover, and the idea of an actual ice wall that guards the edges of the world is very appealing to me, among other things. Having had tastes of FET in the past, I kept my thoughts about it to myself, but with the recent hype, I was hoping to get some calm answers to a few questions.

I've seen plenty about the sun and moon; explanations for their movement, the seasons and the phases. What I've never seen is an explanation for their ability to move or to stay suspended in the atmosphere at all. Maybe I haven't looked hard enough? If anyone can clue me in on that, I would like that very much.

Second, I wont presume that all FET believers are against the Theory of Evolution, as I myself sit unknowably between the two ideas, but I've never understood why anyone thinks FET disproves evolution, except when the FET believers are bible thumping. I mean, when I think of evolution, I think less about it as 'survival of the fittest' and more of it as 'the un-survival of the not fit'. It's certainly true that biological organisms adapt and alter over time, that much can be discerned in one person's observations over one lifetime. It's true weather patterns swing from drastic to not so drastic depending on the condition of the land as the changing seasons sweep over it. And it's true that some creatures go extinct when others don't due to any such factors. I guess what I'm asking for here is an explanation about the physical origins of creatures according to Intelligent Design ideas. I don't see why evolution isn't considered the vehicle by which Intelligent Design does what it does. If there is a reason why the FET movement would benefit from discounting evolution or it's proponents, I'd like to know that too. I see also that those that believe in evolution usually ridicule Flat Earth Theorists, but I don't know who started throwing mud first.

And lastly, has anyone explained volcanoes and where the lava comes from/what the ecological point of it is, according to Flat Earth Theory? Where would the earths core be in order to produce magma?

Thank you for your time
