I am not certain but I believe it was the hotel in Oosterbeek in the Netherlands where the Biderberg Group first met in 1954.

Flat Earth Community / What is the Advantage of a Globe Theory?

« on: May 25, 2015, 05:17:05 PM »

Hello -

I have run across this topic (Flat Earth Theory) recently and I am finding it quite fascinating. I am planning at some point over the summer to do my own Bedford Level experiment with my daughters as a science project. I will be approaching if from the perspective of proving the earth to be a globe but I actually seeking truth and will not be surprised if the experiment confirms a flat earth. I actually think a flat earth would be - for lack of a better word - kind of cool.

My question is more philosophical that scientific however. I want to understand what would be gained (by the powers that be) from the "perception/belief" that the world is a globe vs. flat. What is to be gained (or lost) by that theory? I'm trying to understand who would really care and what impact does that have on our lives? It seems it  is extremely important that we believe it is a globe - to the extent of trillions of dollars in the space program over the years all being for show. That's a LOT of investment in something that isn't real so there must be some reason why its so important.

Since 9/11 and the 2008 economic crash, I have become quite the skeptic and I now question everything. I am truly here on a journey for truth. I just would find it difficult to believe we would be sold on a globe if the world is truly flat unless there is some incredibly important reason to do so.

Thank you.
