Flat Earth Theory / Re: Stand up proof
« on: May 11, 2018, 09:18:01 AM »The proof in the OP is based on the concept of sitting down and standing up at the shoreline. Hardly conclusive.It's very conclusive. It shows a simple observation that requires very little equipment or background assumptions, can show an awful lot. The geometry is fascinating. Please show why that isn't conclusive.
As I noted in another comment, your interest, and the interest of the society, should be in persuading people like me of the evidence for your claims. Haven't seen any. Everything I have seen so far consists in immediately dismissing any contrary evidence whatever, however persuasive.
If your evidence is so easily dismissed, then maybe you should come up with better evidence.
You ignored my first point. It is for you to persuade me. And you haven't shown me why the evidence is so easily dismissed. Please explain
[edit] Also, it is a logical fallacy that if you immediately dismisses p, then p is easily dismissed. Suppose I show you a proof of 7+5=12, and you immediately dismiss it. Does it follow that the mathematical proof is 'easily dismissed'?
