I want to be respectful, and demonstrate a but of patience with this subject. I have been exposed this most recently by some muscian who is absolutely convinced that the world is flat. So much so he intends to launch his own GoPRO into orbit and get visual evidence that it is in fact flat.

I am sorry to say this for all of you that believe this but this is a colossal waste of time on something that was proven centuries ago. Let me ask a few obvious questions:

1) If the Earth is flat, then is the moon flat too?

2) Are all celestial bodies flat including our Sun?

3) If they are not why in the universe are we the only flat planet?

4) How can you possibly square this with basic astrophysics?

There is so much evidence to dispute and disprove this foolish theory yet you persist. Government coverup? what?? seriously? Why why would this be so important to keep a secret for all these centuries and also to propagate a lie that the earth is round? Even if I wanted to believe this as much as everyone that joins this society, science of the planets and solar system just completely debunks these thoughts.

So that leaves only one question. I am not getting this? Is the whole point of this to have a bit of fun? That you really do not take this seriously, and are laughing at all of us who think you all actually do take this seriously? Please enlighten me because if you really do believe in this then we are in big trouble.
