Please clarify If you beleive this occured. Does it comform with your theories that space orbit is impossible or could this occur in a flat world?

Flat Earth Theory / Palaeontology of a flat earth

« on: January 18, 2015, 09:05:42 AM »

Hi again,
Did dinosaurs exist on a flat earth, if at all?
What do you say to the claims of continental drift? As in Antarctica once being connected to Africa and Australia at one point?
What about the remains of vegetation found on antarctica indicating it used to be lush and forested?
Also, the discovery of life once existing there?
Both of these claims debunk the claim of antarctica being an (in)finite snowy wasteland. This is a fundamental part of FET, and thus requires some defence.

Flat Earth Theory / Geology of a flat earth

« on: January 18, 2015, 08:59:56 AM »

Hi all,
The conventional view of geology states that the earth is composed of a thin crust or lithosphere, then a large molten area known as the mantle, then a semi-solid outer core, and finally a solid iron inner core. This can explain things like continental drift, volcanoes, earthquakes and mountains. But, this view relies on gravity existing, the earth being spherical, and the word of governmental mining and research bodies. Thanks to this website, all three of these can be debunked(?).
If so, using the flat earth model, what would the internal composition of the world be?
Do tectonic plates exist? if so, how do they move without gravity induced convection currents?
And if tectonic plates don't exist, then how can volcanoes, earthquakes and mountain ranges be explained?
And please don't redirect me to the FAQ's, as they don't contain any of these answers.
Thanks

Flat Earth Theory / australia

« on: January 18, 2015, 01:15:28 AM »

Now i know that most if not all of the contributors on this website are most likely residents of the united states.
Not passing judgement, but that seems to be the heartland of conspiracy theories and strange societies.
Not hating, just making observations. so we can assume that nearly everyone here lives in the northern hemisphere.
This is why, i think, that the 'conventional' flat earth model is north pole centred.
most of you have probably never been to antarctica, or anywhere near.
Also, the flat earth map's geography would't be much different in the north, opposed to the south.
N. America and Europe would appear in much the same way.
But as an australian, i know that substantially fewer of us subscribe to your theories.
This is because whether the map shows all continents in their familiar shapes, or in their rather squashed ones, drastic changes have been done to my home country.
either it is a sausage shape, which doesn't correlate with all our maps, and means that all travel that i have done around the country has been misleading.
Or we are suddenly a lot more isolated than we previously thought. normally the time taken to travel from sydney to Lima or Sydney to Los Angeles, whether by plane or by boat, is relatively the same.
but with the flat earth model, it would be nearly half as long to get to South America rather than the north.
Thought experiment: to measure the distance of the arctic circle and the antarctic circle.
Maybe even the equator for good measure ( pardon the pun).
if the earth is round, and both the arctic and the antarctic circles are at the same latitude, they should be the same distance. The equator should be considerably longer. If the earth is flat, than the three lines should go Arctic, Equator, Antarctic in lowest to highest length order. Then, just maybe, if that order was reversed, and the arctic was the longest, than maybe antarctica is the centre of the world, and the arctic is the ice wall. Food or thought

Flat Earth Theory / evidence- for and against

« on: January 18, 2015, 12:55:35 AM »

this thread is designed for people to put down pieces of evidence for both RE and FE. Please clarify which one, and rebuttals are fine as well.

Flat Earth Theory / possibly the greatest hoax ever

« on: January 16, 2015, 11:41:54 PM »

Greetings,
i came across this website purely by accident, and i am interested in seeing peoples points of view on this.
Lets say that the issue of the true shape of the earth is concrete. It is either flat. Or it's not.
Let us also say that the covering up or falsifying of this fact would be a crime, with the governments of the world (whether flat or not) and space agencies as the culprit(s).
If this is indeed a crime, than they should be innocent until proven guilty.
Therefore, by extension, the earth should be considered round until PROVEN flat (or vice versa, but this is the flat earth society, and this is the issue that we are dealing with).
In every crime show ever, the culprit must have an MMO (Motive,Means,Opportunity). We can apply this to the shape of the earth.
M= Why would the governments of the earth have any reason to deny the true shape of the earth or not?
M= Is it actually possible to keep such a huge secret or truth hidden for so long?
O= When would governments ever have had the capability to fabricate such a huge lie?
Extensions: if nasa really did lie about this, why didn't any of its rivals, i.e China or the USSR expose them?
What would the governments gain?
Why a flat earth? Why not a spherical earth?

Proof: Any seventh grade debater knows that proving the opposition wrong is not the same thing as proving yourself right.
All those corrupt globulist 'proofs' can easily be explained away as a hoax, or a matter of perspective, right?
Well, yes. But the only counter claim of any note or prominence, is empirical.
As an atheist, I don't see anything wrong with this. Not on the surface.
Strictly speaking, however, empiricism, by definition,isn't just what you can see at any one time, but what can be seen, including photographic and scientific evidence.
"I look out my window (hot damn, a window), and the earth looks flat. Q.E.D"
We can apply this logic to other things.
"I look out my window, and i can't see the moon/Greenland/wildebeest/Kim Jong-Un, therefore these thing don't exist."
