Flat Earth Theory / Why is Earth not round?

« on: March 06, 2018, 01:54:35 AM »

So, I understand why people would think that the Earth is flat but my question is, why is the Earth not round? What is it about the accepted round Earth that doesn't make sense scientifically?

Flat Earth Theory / Another person that just has a couple questions just because I'm curious. Thanks

-Why would organizations like SpaceX and Nasa want to perpetuate the idea that the Earth is round? What would they gain?
-Why is Mars round and Earth flat? Why are they different? Shouldn't all planets be the same shape?
-What happens if you keep going forward for a long time? Wouldn't you fall off the planet since the Earth is disk?
-(related to the last question) What about all the times that people have kept going in the same direction for a long time and have ended up where they started.

I'm just asking because these are questions that I've been asking myself about the ideas of Flat Earthers. Not trying to shun or refute. Thanks in advance!
