Flat Earth Theory / Re: How do we know it's not octagonal?

Well, first, let's assume you mean "octohedral" and not "octagonal" - because an octagonal earth would be flat - and since the Wiki carefully points out that the Flat Earth Society doesn't know (or at least doesn't agree) on what's past the giant ice wall - "octagonal" works just fine here.

Octohedral would be problematic for reasons that both FE and RE folks might agree upon.

If we're trapped on just one flat face of the octohedron - then on the face of things, this would be a Flat Earth - but all of the fancy ways the sun and moon might work would be broken and things like gravity would cause problems that the normal FE view of things has carefully avoided.

If we're able to roam the entire octohedron - then we're all wondering what happens as we cross over one of the edges - and neither FE nor RE folks very much approve of the idea of "edges" that must be crossed.

So octohedral earth is much MUCH less plausible then FE or
(I FULLY AGREE)

Our thinking is limited. No matter how much science we try to employ, we still end up with speculations. we come up with theories to try and explain everything, because we're too nassistic to accept the fact that we can't comprehend everything. theories keep changing because we haven't found facts yet. we were created to live on earth, not to fully understand how things work the way they do. God is mysterious & that's that.
