Flat Earth Theory / The sun

« on: April 21, 2015, 10:19:21 PM »

I would like to ask FETers how they think the sun works, namely: 1)why it moves in a circle 2)why it doesn't fall down onto the earth 3)why it shines like a spotlight if it is a ball.
None of this is in the wiki, so please don't just direct me there. Thanks.

Flat Earth Theory / Sunsets

« on: April 19, 2015, 11:46:58 AM »

I have a question for FETers: how do you explain sunsets? By this I mean the moment when the sun is seen to sink below the horizon, bottom first, in a way that cannot be explained by it moving away. I have read the wiki on the topic of "sinking ships" and was extremely dissatisfied by the evidence of "accounts" of them being restored by telescopes, which could easily have been faked. Moreover, as the sun is a source of light, it wouldn't seem to half dissappear but should (according to FET) simply fade away, like a lamp in fog. It does not.

Flat Earth Theory / What would it take?

A question to all FETers out there: what would it take for you to believe in a round earth? What kind of evidence, argument, visual, etc. Would it take for you to revoke your FET views and become RETers?
