Flat Earth Community / Cui bono/who benefits?
« on: March 19, 2022, 12:35:11 PM »
First of all, thank you all for making a ball earther like me feel so welcome, I certainly feel like I have a better handle on the tenents of the flat earth hypothesis, there is one thing, however, that I cant get a read on:
If all the images of The Earth as a globe are fake/composite/photoshopped; why?  Why hide this amazing bit of information?  Who is in control? the world governments have shifted radically since the (proposed) moon landing of 1969 so it can't be an individual administration, so who is covering this up and most importantly, why?

Cheers in advance guys.

Yeah, it is actually RE adherents running the Biolabs performing gain of function research and setting loose dangerous pathogens, waging an elemental war on the very substance that comprises most everything that exists in the universe, and starting and fomenting death and destruction among all the peoples of the flat earth.

None of these very real things have been set loose upon humanity by any FE adherent.

Globesters don't care about people.

A couple of points here my friend, are you saying that all Ball Earthers are callously and deliberately endangering the planet?  Sure, there are a lot of Ball Earthers who are screwing the planet over, but that's just because there are more ball Earthers than Flat Earthers per capita, so of course, in a ven diagram the Ball Earthers who don't care will be substantially more.

Are you saying there is causation between RE belief and harmful acts against the planet? To what end?  we have to share the wonderful world together, no matter what shape it is.
In my experience, a lot of ecologically aware people are Ball Earthers, but again, is that just because there are more RE than FE people in the general population?

Peace brother,
RBD

The flat earth movement has always demonstrated a strong Deist movement. The reasons as to why are in many other threads already on this site but theories such as the clockwork universe are a good starting point for your understanding.

We've polled this many many times over the years and flat earthers are overwhelmingly Deists above any other denomination on our forum. Round earthers that visit this site are overwhelmingly atheist. God will roast them over an open fire eventually though, so they have it coming to them.  >:(

Hiya Doc,
I really don’t want to come across as confrontational but I felt compelled to respond to your augment, in the interests of transparency I am a practising Christian and round earth proponent, here to research the FE movement with a view to writing an article with an open mind. I honestly believe that my god is a good of freedom and love who doesn’t care whom you love (within legal limits) and who forgives much easier than they punish.

If you don’t mind my asking, why would a kind, benevolent and most of all forgiving god damn a person for something as easy to believe as globe earth?

Why would a round earth be fundamentally blasphemous? I don’t seem to recall a passage that refers to the earth as being flat.

Cheers
RBD

Who are the YouTubers to whom you refer ?

Okay, so there are a couple; level earth observer,  Phuket Word and so on.
I tend to watch the Sci Man Dan channel as well on the debunking side.

As I have said previously I don't necessarily agree with my FE friends, but I'll be damned if I wouldn't fight for their right to be wrong.
What do you believe Tumeni, if you don't mind my asking?

You raise a good point Iceman but humour me,  I know some stuff from various bloggers and YouTubers who have put their theories out there.  what I am interested in is the nuts and bolts of the FE movement.  I myself see it as a faith, no more or less valuable than Christianity, Islam, Wicca or any of the offshoots of these faiths.

So tell me, Iceman, what do you believe?

Hi Ethan

I also am here on a fact-finding mission, I find the FE conspiracy theory fascinating.  I myself am a ball earth proponent and I have an idea that sociologically, members of the FE community are rather like New Age gurus, in so much as they carry their own reality with them.  It's completely within their rights to believe whatever they like; God, Yahweh, Buddha, Cookie Monster or all of the above. Although I don't believe the earth is flat, I do believe that (except for some YouTube blowhards) the vast majority of FE believers are decent, together, eloquent people who just so happen to have a different world view, and I for one would fight for their right to believe whatever they wanted to.

Peace,
RBD

First of all, thank you all very much for helping me so far, I really apricate it! 😊

If it’s not too personal of a question, may I ask, are FE believers usually people of faith, if so are they generally literal creationists?

Also, I have noticed that a lot of you are quite right-wing/libertarian, would that be a fair assessment in your eyes?

Wow! thank you so much guys,  this is fascinating.  Just as a matter of interest do you hold other 'unusual' beliefs, or is it just the FE?

Hello all,

I am a wannabe writer and find the flat earth model fascinating as an intellectual exercise.  I would love to speak to you about your beliefs and, more importantly, why and how you came to reach these viewpoints.
In the interests of transparency, you should know that I am a ball earther and I am also a Christian.  I will not sermonize about my own views

If you have the time, please do let me know.  I have a few ‘boilerplate questions that I would love you to answer:

If the earth is flat, why and, to what benefit is it that the world governments are keeping this a secret?
When did the ball earth conspiracy start?
Did we go to the moon, if not why not?
Are there any real images from space?
If there is a dome, how do satellites work?
If we are under a dome, how did the dinosaurs become extinct?

As I say, I am really not looking to troll anyone, and I would never trash a belief system, especially not one I don’t fully understand. 

Have an awesome day,
RBD
