Creation
« on: July 22, 2017, 10:26:53 PM »
Hi this is my first time on the forum and I would like to ask the FE people a question. Assuming the earth is flat how did it come to be (I would prefer an explanation more scientifically rigorous then just labeling unkowns GOD.).
Also is there a turtle and three elephants under FE.

I've always been of the opinion that the turtle defecated the Earth and farted the Heavens. Is that scientifically rigorous enough for you? To answer your second question, yes.

Sounds about right. How many actual flat earthers would you say are on this forum.

If you assume that the earth is flat then that assumption points towards intelligent design.
A lie will make it around the world before the truth has time to put on its shoes.

Aside from myself? I can't say for sure. I suspect there are some trolls here.

Flat and Round alike can agree with this statement from a FE proponent.

Ok. You proven you are unworthy to unignored. You proven it was a bad idea to unignore you. and it was for me a disgusting experience...Now you are going to place where you deserved and accustomed.

The zetetic method says that we can't know the number of elephants until we observe them directly.  Three would be a reasonable minimum for stability however!  :-)

TRUTH: The FE community are more than happy to say "We don't know" (which is actually kinda refreshing!) - and I presume that the formation of the Earth is one of those things.    Without doubt, there are going to be many different FE "creation stories" - there are many theories about EVERYTHING in FE theory.
Hey Tom:  What path do the photons take from the physical location of the sun to my eye at sunset?
