I read the frequently asked questions and answers, I thought the explanation for seasons was ok if you agree the sun is orbiting above the earth horizontally not vertically (I don't agree with), but what causes the sun to change the size of its orbit every few months? Stating the sun acts as a spotlight is pretty ridiculous, the suns rays shine from all angles, so that would not explain day/night on a flat earth. If the earth were flat there would not be day and night at the same time in different parts of the world like there is. If the moon is following the sun how do we have an eclipse?
