Flat Earth Theory / Mapping the Earth
« on: June 25, 2019, 04:50:56 PM »
Hi!
I did a bit of Research on the Flat Earth Theory in the last couple of months and in all that time I haven't got a good answer to a Question I think is one of the main Things I am skeptical about with that Theory.
It's about the Flat Earth Map. Maths tells us that you can't map out a sphere, there are Proofs for that, so no map of the earth is correct. The different maps obtained by projections (as claimed) all have one thing in common: They are distorted.
Some got correct angles and others correct lengths but they can't have both at the same time.
Now to my Question: If the earth is flat, we should have a map that has got both of those Attributes, in other words we should be able to have a perfect map of the earth without any distortion. Is there such a map?
If there is, I'm fully convinced that you're right, because the only way we could have a perfect map is when the earth is flat.
Thanks in Advance for your answers
