Why do you believe the Earth is round?
It's the same as why do you believe the gas tank in your car is empty. You can't directly look into it and directly see the level, but you have
a level gauge that tells you how much is in there. It's the same for the shape of the earth. Marine gyroscopes, for instance, require that the earth
rotates to stabilize on a longitudinal azimuth. This is one reason, among others for me to maintain the belief of a round earth.
Where is your evidence?
A marine gyroscope can also provide other data besides just the azimuth towards the geographic North Pole. If you have access to a computer and can
look at the service data, like I could, you can see the other x, y, and z data. The data observed matches what you would see if the earth were round and
you traveled from North America to Asia.
If yes, what evidence would change your mind about the shape of the Earth?
I would have to see that the basic laws of physics just don't work at all and that all my college training and actual observations of the physical world
were just a bunch of bunk.
If you believed the Earth was flat, would you admit it?
Yes
Have you always believed the Earth is round?
Yes
If no, what made you change your mind?
N/A
Have you ever observed the curvature of the Earth?
Yes, with instruments, as described above.
Have you ever been to space?
No.
Have you ever been to the top of Mount Everest?
No.
Can you believe in something you have never seen before?
Yes. I've never seen an atom, but I believe that everything is made from them.
What does faith mean to you?
N/A
Why do you deny the fact that the Earth is flat?
The evidence I've directly seen doesn't support it. Suppose there was a box in the middle of town with either a black or white cat
inside of it. I couldn't directly see the cat with my own eyes, but I could use some instruments to measure the cat's color directly.
This instrument had been directly calibrated by me with black & white squares so I trusted it's measurements. My measurements
indicated that the cat was white. Why would I ever think that I would directly see a black cat inside that box if I ever had the opportunity
to directly see it?
Will you believe anything the scientific community tells you?
N/A
If the scientific community told you the sky was red, would you accept it?
N/A
Do you believe that all planets are round, or just the Earth?
N/A
Do you believe that we put a man on the moon?
Yes. I listened to that adventure in real time when I was younger. Moon rocks were brought back that were unique
with characteristics that couldn't be present on earth. I've physically touched one so I know that they exist.
If yes, why haven’t we done it again since 1969?
Doesn't matter. The question is, was there a man on the moon, ever?
What evidence do you have that we put a man on the moon?
Astronauts say they were on the moon. You would have to call all of them liars and all the other data involved with those missions
fabrications if you were to say it wasn't true.
What evidence would change your mind?
If there was some other evidence that man was never on the moon, how would you know that other evidence wasn't just fabricated?
What is your opinion on conspiracies in general?
N/A
Do you believe the official story given by the government regarding the JFK assassination?
N/A
Do you believe that 9/11 was an inside job?

Do you believe Obama was born in Hawaii, or Kenya?
Do you believe Obama is a Muslim?
Do you believe corona virus is real?
Do you believe that the CIA was testing methods of mind control in the 50’s and 60’s?
Do you believe in any conspiracies at all that were not already mentioned?
How do you square the fact that some of the most evil people in history believed the earth was round? Ex. Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin, Mao Zedong, Jeffery Dahmer, Ted Bundy, Jim Jones, etc.
Do you believe in the “theory” of gravity, as proposed by Isaac Newton?
Were you aware that Isaac Newton attempted to steal all the credit for the invention of calculus from Gottfried Leibniz?
Why do you take someone who wore a powdered wig seriously?
Why do you strawman people you don’t agree with and claim they are somehow anti-science?
Do you believe in God?
If yes, what religion/denomination are you a member of?
*************No answers to the above questions ***************
Do you believe that water seeks its own level?
Water will always flow in any direction closer to the center of gravity of the earth (down hill) in the absence of any other
force exerted on that drop of water.
Do you believe in tectonic plates?
What is your evidence for tectonic plates?
Have you ever seen a tectonic plate?
Has anyone ever seen a tectonic plate?
If the tectonic plates move so slowly that you can’t even notice, how do we know that they move at all, assuming of course that they actually exist?
How many tectonic plates are there?
How many continents are there?
Why are Europe and Asia seen as two different continents even though they are clearly one landmass?
What is the definition of a continent?
What is the definition of a planet?
What is the definition of a species?
Do any of the previously mentioned words have clearly defined meanings?
Should words without clearly defined meanings be used in a scientific setting?
If tectonic plates can create a mountain, could they also destroy a mountain?
What evidence is there that a mountain can be formed by tectonic plates?
Have you ever observed a mountain being formed from tectonic plates?
If tectonic plates caused all the continents to become one massive landmass, why did they suddenly drift apart in the opposite direction?
Do you believe that earthquakes are caused by the shifting of tectonic plates?
Where is your evidence that earthquakes are caused by the shifting of tectonic plates?
Do you believe that Earth could have landmasses no person has ever been to?
Do you believe that life exists on other planets?
Do you believe aliens have visited Earth?
Have you ever heard of the Fermi Paradox?
The Fermi Paradox is as follows: If evilution is true, then shouldn’t we be seeing aliens everywhere?
What is your explanation for the Fermi Paradox?
Do you believe the sun is many times bigger than the moon?
If yes, how could a solar eclipse be possible?
If the sun was bigger than the moon, then what are the chances that the moon would be able to eclipse almost all the light from the sun, except for a rim of light?
How does a lunar eclipse make sense on a round earth?
If the earth was casting a shadow on the moon, wouldn’t it just cause the moon to appear black, instead of red?
Do you believe the Earth rotates around the sun?
Do you believe there are millions of planets?
Do you believe there are millions of stars?
Do you believe that our sun is a star?

Do you believe in red giants?
Do you believe in dark energy?
Do you believe in dark matter?
Do you believe in anti-matter?
If you answered yes to any of the previously mentioned celestial objects, why?
Where is your evidence that these celestial objects exist?
Have you ever observed any of these celestial objects?
Do you believe that in the future, there will be people born not on Earth? Ex. Mars, The Moon, deep space, etc.
Do you believe that in the future, people will be able to travel back and forth between different planets?
If we were to start a colony on a different planet or even the moon, what laws would they have to follow?
Why is it that the most famous planets and stars are named after pagan gods?
Did you know that astronomy originates from the false religion known as astrology?
Is pluto a planet?
If pluto is too small to be considered a planet, how big does something have to be in order to be a planet?
What is the difference between a planet and a dwarf planet, other than size?
How big does something orbiting a planet need to be in order to be considered a moon?
************Didn't answer any of these questions*********************************
Is the fictitious international space station a moon?
The space station is real. There's humans aboard it. I've personally heard them talking on the radio to
a ground station. It's been directly observed & photographed from the earth.
Do you believe that our solar system could have a ninth, unknown planet?
