Flat Earth Theory / Tides and water levels on a flat earth
« on: October 16, 2020, 03:09:54 PM »
The flat earth community frequently uses the apparent flatness of large bodies of water as evidence for the flat earth with terms such as "water always finds its level". I am wondering how tides work in this model. Specifically:
- what mechanism is proposed for the existence of tides?
- Accepting that some locations will be at high tides at the same time that others are at low tide, does this not imply that a not-completely-level slope or even curve must exist between any two such places?
