Flat Earth Theory / Re: The FE concept

« on: April 10, 2018, 03:43:14 PM »

Musk will be sending a ship to Mars next year and you the taxpayers can fork up the fake money. It looks and sounds so fake it must be true.

It is written the earth doesn't move and it can't be moved. Man had a handle on how the earth worked thousands of years ago. It's not till recently that greed, sex and rock and roll ruined it all. I pledge allegiance to the flag, one nation under, used to be God, now satan runs the roosters now with gravitational pull...he he

Wasn't the plan for Musk to you know, buy the whole operation himself, seeing as he's a billionaire?

Flat Earth Community / When did you start?

« on: April 09, 2018, 02:10:25 PM »

I'm done arguing my point, so I'm just asking -politely- when did you start believing the Earth was Flat, who/what gave you the evidence?  I mean, I learned the Earth was round, before I really paid attention to it in school. As a child, my parents took me to the beach a lot, and there, I could see big boats have their mast appear first. Since I've always liked to learn how things worked, I asked them, and they told me that because of the curvature, the mast appeared first. I would love to hear your stories.

Hello everyone. Let's be honest, I'm not ( yet ?) a supporter of the flat earth theory. 
But I'm not here for any kind of troll or something, in fact I'm pretty interested

I'm a student and i have to make some investigations about your theory, and there is a special part of the theory that I'm not convinced in, at least, there are not enough debate.
Why there is "people" lying to us ? Like, what are the motivations ? WHo are theses and people and from when they're acting like that ? I don't find the people behind this conspiracy of the spheric earth and even less reasons for lying about that, you will be adorable to light me up.

Btw I'm french, please apologize my relative english grammar.
 Have a nice day 

It's best to not say 'yet' as it makes you more corruptible.  As for the lying, a common theory among them is that it was to end the Cold War, yet that doesn't make much sense either, as we were the ones who were most aggressive during the Cold War. You know the Cuban Missile Crisis? We caused that, by doing the same thing, but in Turkey. They were winning the race, AND we were the aggressors, so...why in the world would they agree to lose the race to us? It's like they think the U.S in the strongest country in the world

I'm guessing the answer will be that the South Pole isn't a place, and is actually a ring around the "Ice Wall". And then they'll ramble on about some facts that are completely cherry picked, and then some more of the government conspiracies. After that we can expect some random argument about how all our facts are fake. You'll never get a real answer, just an answer they want to say. Just because they think something isn't true, doesn't mean it's not true.

There is lots of footage on YouTube to demonstrate the fakery. The way the astronauts bounce as if they are on wires for one. The pathetic lunar landing module that looks like it was wrapped in tin foil. And how is it that they can get a little tv camera to broadcast images, from the moon, in 1969, uninterrupted, back to earth? Yet today, in 2018 if it gets a bit cloudy outside my Sky TV loses its satellite signal? No, primitive 60's technology couldn't achieve that. However, if you could prove it happened, it wouldn't disprove flat earth, just prove NASA went to the moon. They planted a flag, yes? Why was it blowing? Why can people not look through a powerful telescope and see a flag? There isn't one. Please provide proof of the flag that's allegedly there and silence us all.

That's because the Flag was fake, and the MOON IS HUGE YOU FLATTARD. Also, your Sky TV goes out, because it's slightly retarded, just like you

The flag was fake? Not what I expected to hear from a round earth heretic.

First of all, you guys are the heretics, ya might wanna look up the definition of the word "heretic" I was referring to the flag isn't a conventional flag, it was a fake flag, to make it seem like it was waving straight, but that would be impossible. I didn't mean they faked putting a flag there, I just meant the flag wasn't a normal flag.

To that end, anyone can make a website, anyone can write a book, anyone can make a youtube video, anyone can do an interview, anyone can claim that they were told by God. I provided a source. If you don't like it, find a conflicting and more authoritative source. Being as you have provided nothing, I'd have to say wikipedia trumps nothing at all.

Being as the maths is provided, feel free to tell me where the maths is wrong. If it isn't, then what is stated on wiki must be accepted as fact.

And mainly, I'm just saying, it's as simple as using a different website like I did. Wikipedia isn't as accurate as these other sites, because unlike these other sites, Wikipedia can be edited by anyone in the world, not just the owners of the domain.

Let's just say this: if there is a Great Ice Wall that surrounds the whole world, and nobody has ever seen it, how does that support any claims? Yes, you supported that there is a lack of visibility, but that still doesn't support any claims that there is a Great Ice Wall. I don't disagree with you on the visibility thing, but if you can see as far as 30 miles away (https://www.livescience.com/33895-human-eye.html) doesn't that mean that you could be 30 miles away from the patrol of "government officials" that surround the world, and take a picture of them?

It is mathematically proven that even in the cleanest atmosphere possible, the furthest you could see is 296km.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visibility#Derivation

In reality you can never see more than 40km, and aviation weather forecasts top out at 10km with the phrase being "all the 9's" meaning visibility is written as 9999 and the number doesn't go any higher.

If you're going to prove something, please, use another website other than wikipedia, as literally anyone can edit a wikipedia page...sigh

The atmosphere is not perfectly transparent.

That doesn't explain anything. Please, give me a measurement of the diameter of this flat Earth, then do the math, with all the correct equations to figure out how far one could see, on this flat earth. Also, since on a flat Earth map Africa is pretty southern, so we could just use Mt Kilimanjaro instead, which would bring us even closer to the so called 'Ice Wall' So please, please explain why there is no factual proof of the wall?

Don't type in all caps. It's not classy.
In other news, the flag did not flutter in the wind, it was a glitch in the telescopic arm they put in to keep it straight.
https://abcnews.go.com/Technology/story?id=97589&page=1
Also, again, the Sky TV is not a good analogy. NASA was using colossal dishes that could recieve signals through the clouds
A brief google image search will give you a good idea of what they look like.
By the way, if the moon were that huge, wouldn't it drown us all with tides, or be immediately ripped to pieces by earth's superior gravity?
I actually started a similar discussion in another thread, if you want to tell me how wrong I am.
https://forum.tfes.org/index.php?topic=9303.0

Spycrab, I was referring to the moon as huge, as it is very large compared to a human. It's like saying, "But if there are people on Earth, why can't I seem them from space?!"

I'm not. If they are underneath the ball, they are pointing downwards. So logically if they build something upwards it is, in fact, being built downwards. I don't know why this is so difficult to comprehend

Its true, in Australia they all walk about standing on there heads, consequently shoe sales in Australia are very poor, but they get through a lot of hats.

Oh lord... XD

I was wondering how fast you Flattards would respond. Let's make this really simple for your addlepate brains. If the moon was as close as you think it is, clearly closer than 6000 miles, as that is the largest distance I have found Flattards speaking of the Sun, and if the Moon Landing wasn't faked, take a moment. With a telescope, you could see the men on the Moon, and since the moon isn't as large as it is in the real world, the men, and their lunar ship would be HUGE compared to how it is in the real world. Also, you're saying 400,000 NASA employees would have to keep primitive "CGI" secret? Wow, you Flattards really don't know how much NASA employees talk. Also, we convinced the rest of the world to lie for us, just so we could be the first to the "Moon?" or how you Flattards think "keep the shape of the Earth secret?". Oh! Did I mention it would have been nearly impossible to make the shadows from the moon landing without CGI in 1968? The shadows run parallel, which can only happen with a light source SUPER far away, like the Sun...and the only way to make that effect without CGI is with lasers lined up like pixels on a TV screen. Problem, the lasers in 1968 were expensive, and really big. And by expensive, I mean more than the ENTIRE BUDGET of the Apollo Missions. And they were red, so the color pictures we have of the moon wouldn't have been possible! And yeah, as Spycrab said, ya'll know the lunar retro-reflectors are real things, right?

Hello, I am not a Flat Earther, but I do have a question for the Flat Eathers. If I can PROVE the Moon Landing wasn't faked, does that mean I have disproved the Earth is Flat? The Moon -According to many Flat Earthers- is not actually a place, and is another government scheme, but if people have been there, that means it is real. Please, prove the Moon landing was fake, and I'll believe the Earth is flat. Not until then, though.
