ok then if we are indeed on a ball how come you cannot detect any curvature? Yes of course we have hills and elavations. And water will always find its level (flatness) it cannot be curved it can't have a hump in it.e.g.from California to Hawaii it is 2,467 miles. Between the two states there should be a "hump" of 770 miles if we're on a globe!! No hump is possible in water use your eyes that's why it's called sea level not sea curve..
"Create a belief in the theory and the facts will create themselves" (Joseph jastow 1935)
Ever heard of gravity? There is no law that says that the surface of water has to be
flat! Water just finds the level that has the lowest energy, which is as far down as possible. On the globe that is as close to the centre as possible.
Plus there was a study in Kansas where they measured it to be flatter than a pancake.they measured it from west to east and it is approximately 420 miles across so going with the measurements of the earth we can't be a ball because it would be impossible to have a distance of that greatness to be flat! it should have a curvature of at least 22miles across in a distance of 420 miles but it's dead flat.Hundreds of miles of flatness with little change in elevation in several states across America ... And we're on a ball? What kind of ball is that then? Same as ships don't vanish over the horizon they come back into view with any decent telescope or binoculars ,earths atmosphere gives us limited visibility.
Kansas flatter than a pancake, sure! How flat is a pancake?

Figure 4. Surface topography of Kansas and of a pancake.
But you might just find that the reference for flatness is "mean sea level", take a look at
Kansas Is Flatter Than a Pancake.
Same as ships don't vanish over the horizon they come back into view with any decent telescope or binoculars ,earths atmosphere gives us limited visibility.
That has never been proved. There are numerous videos of ships disappearing, but I have never seen a convincing one of a ship, or part of a ship, that has disappeared actually being brought back into view.
Have a look at this post (on the other site)

Create a belief in the theory and the facts will create themselves
is certainly true. The flat earth movement just looked at the local earth and it looked flat, so decided that the whole earth must be flat. Now, they have to create numerous unprovable "facts" to explain the unexplainable!
So, come up with some evidence, then try again!
You are just quoting the usual indoctrination that Flat Earther get, bit without any evidence to back it up!
