Flat Earth Theory / Re: A refutation of RE that RE-ers will accept - experiment at home on 20th March
« on: March 26, 2016, 04:49:34 PM »The responsibility of the claimant is to prove his positive.I wasn't able to check the sun's position at noon (and I probably wouldn't if I was able), but I used Stellarium and found the sun's inclination to be 51.7° at culmination. This makes sense, as my latitude is 38.53 N. If we are to trust Stellarium (and we absolutely are) then we haven't disproven RET at all.
Anything else?
Rama, surely you aren't that dense. Stellarium isn't experimental or observational evidence. It's a computer program.
The responsibility of the claimant is to prove his positive.
If you were answering my post (you may have noticed thebutton?),
I was giving YOU the opportunity to prove the Globe false, so come down off your high horse!
But, since you brought up the proof question, you are claiming the earth is flat, when without doubt most people accept that it is a Globe.So, I would claim that: "The responsibility of the claimant is to prove his positive."
If you look out the window you will see evidence that the earth is flat. We have yet to see something as obvious and clear to tell us that the earth is a globe.
