I'd suggest reviewing the wiki and FAQ first.

Hi been checking few things according the round globe which does not add up. Lots of places it states that the solar constilation is different in the north and south of the hemiphere. I'm in Namibia which is southern part of Africa looking at the lil dipper and Orion's belt. Only difftence is they are upside down compared to if u are in northern part of the globe for example when I stayed in south Carolina the dipper is right side up and Orion's sword points downwards. Here in Namibia its the opposite. With a globe spinning and positions according the round globe there is no way this can be possible?

Actually, constellations being upside down when viewed from the other hemisphere is exactly what you should expect on a globe.  The crescent moons will be opposite as well.

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.

I have a confession on that issue. I was replying to a post about the Tycho Crater, and knew I had a good photo of the Oct 16, 2,016 Full Perigee Moon.
But I couldn't locate the Tycho Crater in the "right place". Finally the penny dropped - I'm in the Southern Hemisphere! duh!

Yes, things look "upside down" (actually rotated 180°) to us down here, but one can still get caught out.

If he had satellite angels, holding mirrors, he could.
Just to be clear, you are all terrific, but everything you say is exactly what a moron would say.

I'm confused. The other day another Muslim on the board gave us examples of verses from the Quran along with interpretations that showed that the Quran never spoke about the earth being flat.

So, which is it? Should I stay in the belief that religions are just as undecided on a model as the flat earth society is?

1 what causes weather
I would venture to guess the Sun is the primary cause of weather.
2 what causes air to circulate
I would venture to guess it is the interaction of hot air rising and cold air sinking that generates circulation. That and multiple fans located around the world.
3 where's the ice wall surrounding the planet
There is no ice wall surrounding a, "planet."

There is an Ice Wall surrounding a flat plane.
4 how do comets get past ''the dome''

Comets do not get past a "dome."
