You are using math on a diagram which is situated outside of the universe; not on an empirical first person view.
Sorry - how? I draw a diagram showing the path of light from the sun to the back of a super-simple camera. These cameras exist - I used to have one - it's not "outside of the universe".
Human eyes do very similar things to pinhole cameras - and I can draw that diagram if it helps (it doesn't).
This isn't some abstract or complicated thing. Two rays of light travel through a small hole and form an image.
How does that image produce a sunset?
It's a simple question Tom.
Very VERY simple.
Even people with an elementary school education can follow this argument.
Tell me what is wrong with my diagram. The light from the sun travels in straight lines - and hits the back of the camera to expose film. If the light isn't "bent" how the hell can the image of the sun touch the image of the horizon...as it plainly does.
Just explain that to me.
(Yeah - I know you can't - so you're jumping off into la-la land and desperately trying to redirect a VERY simple explanation into some confusing mess that you hope will derail the conversation.)
JUST TELL ME WHAT'S NOT TRUE ABOUT MY DIAGRAM.
(Or admit that you're wrong.)
