20) If Earth were truly constantly spinning Eastwards at over 1000mph, vertically-fired cannonballs and other projectiles should fall significantly due west. In actual fact, however, whenever this has been tested, vertically-fired cannonballs shoot upwards an average of 14 seconds ascending, 14 seconds descending, and fall back to the ground no more than 2 feet away from the cannon, often directly back into the muzzle.
21) If the Earth were truly constantly spinning Eastwards at over 1000mph, helicopters and hot-air balloons should be able to simply hover over the surface of the Earth and wait for their destinations to come to them!
kom bitch
@Deejay from Earth I thought the dome is moving with it
22) If Earth were truly constantly spinning Eastwards at over 1000mph, during the Red Bull stratosphere dive, Felix Baumgartner, spending 3 hours ascending over New Mexico, should have landed 2500 miles West into the Pacific Ocean but instead landed a few dozen miles East of the take-off point.
@Deejay from Earth I thought the dome is moving with it
23) Ball-believers often claim โgravityโ magically and inexplicably drags the entire lower-atmosphere of the Earth in perfect synchronization up to some undetermined height where this progressively faster spinning atmosphere gives way to the non-spinning, non-gravitized, non-atmosphere of infinite vacuum space. Such non-sensical theories are debunked, however, by rain, fireworks, birds, bugs, clouds, smoke, planes and projectiles all of which would behave very differently if both the ball-Earth and its atmosphere were constantly spinning Eastwards at 1000mph.
@Deejay from Earth I thought the dome is moving with it
24) If Earth and its atmosphere were constantly spinning eastwards over 1000mph then North/South facing cannons should establish a control while East-firing cannonballs should fall significantly farther than all others while West-firing cannonballs should fall significantly closer. In actual fact, however, regardless of which direction cannons are fired, the distance covered is always the same.
25) If Earth and its atmosphere were constantly spinning eastwards over 1000mph, then the average commercial airliner traveling 500mph should never be able to reach its Eastward destinations before they come speeding up from behind! Likewise Westward destinations should be arrived at thrice the speed, but this is not the case.
you are so lazy
idk man
So say the same author
i'm still waiting on how the flat earth model can exist
26) Quoting โHeaven and Earthโ by Gabrielle Henriet, โIf flying had been invented at the time of Copernicus, there is no doubt that he would have soon realized that his contention regarding the rotation of the earth was wrong, on account of the relation existing between the speed of an aircraft and that of the earthโs rotation. If the earth rotates, as it is said, at 1,000 miles an hour, and a plane flies in the same direction at only 500 miles, it is obvious that its place of destination will be farther removed every minute. On the other hand, if flying took place in the direction opposite to that of the rotation, a distance of 1,500 miles would be covered in one hour, instead of 500, since the speed of the rotation is to be added to that of the plane. It could also be pointed out that such a flying speed of 1,000 miles an hour, which is supposed to be that of the earthโs rotation, has recently been achieved, so that an aircraft flying at this rate in the same direction as that of the rotation could not cover any ground at all. It would remain suspended in mid-air over the spot from which it took off, since both speeds are equal.โ
if
Now i know why, you love a flat earth !! @Deejay from Earth
1. both the sun and the moon orbit in the pattern as shown on flat earth model, how have they not lost orbit if theres nothing in between them
27) If Earth and its atmosphere were constantly spinning Eastwards over 1000mph, landing airplanes on such fast-moving runways which face all manner of directions North, South, East, West and otherwise would be practically impossible, yet in reality such fictional concerns are completely negligible.
So say the same author of this
28) If the Earth and its atmosphere were constantly spinning Eastwards over 1000mph, then clouds, wind and weather patterns could not casually and unpredictably go every which way, with clouds often travelling in opposing directions at varying altitudes simultaneously.
The dome keeping the clouds in, I know
29) If the Earth and its atmosphere were constantly spinning Eastwards over 1000mph, this should somewhere somehow be seen, heard, felt or measured by someone, yet no one in history has ever experienced this alleged Eastward motion; meanwhile, however, we can hear, feel and experimentally measure even the slightest Westward breeze.
because its normal
deejay is 46 arguing with 18 year olds on the internet
But the dome has a strong force field to keep the sun radiation out. What is it made of, again?
he needs his old man sleep
air also weighs and you carry a massive force but you dont feel it moron
30) In his book โSouth Sea Voyages,โ Arctic and Antarctic explorer Sir James Clarke Ross, described his experience on the night of November 27th, 1839 and his conclusion that the Earth must be motionless: โThe sky being very clear โฆ it enabled us to observe the higher stratum of clouds to be moving in an exactly opposite direction to that of the wind--a circumstance which is frequently recorded in our meteorological journal both in the north-east and south-east trades, and has also often been observed by former voyagers. Captain Basil Hall witnessed it from the summit of the Peak of Teneriffe; and Count Strzelechi, on ascending the volcanic mountain of Kiranea, in Owhyhee, reached at 4000 feet an elevation above that of the trade wind, and experienced the influence of an opposite current of air of a different hygrometric and thermometric condition โฆ Count Strzelechi further informed me of the following seemingly anomalous circumstance--that at the height of 6000 feet he found the current of air blowing at right angles to both the lower strata, also of a different hygrometric and thermometric condition, but warmer than the inter-stratum. Such a state of the atmosphere is compatible only with the fact which other evidence has demonstrated, that the earth is at rest."
Your captain was drunk
hummmmmm
can an admin just purge all the copy pasted stuff of deejay, no one is gonna read it and it can be considered spam
31) Quoting โZetetic Cosmogenyโ Thomas Winships states: โLet โimaginationโ picture to the mind what force air would have which was set in motion by a spherical body of 8,000 miles in diameter, which in one hour was spinning round 1,000 mph, rushing through space at 65,000 mph and gyrating across the heavens? Then let โconjectureโ endeavor to discover whether the inhabitants on such a globe could keep their hair on? If the earth-globe rotates on its axis at the terrific rate of 1,000 miles an hour, such an immense mass would of necessity cause a tremendous rush of wind in the space it occupied. The wind would go all one way, and anything like clouds which got โwithin the sphere of influenceโ of the rotating sphere, would have to go the same way. The fact that the earth is at rest is proved by kite flying.โ

@Deejay from Earth is working with a plan
No-one can HEAR ME! Dammit!
32) If โgravityโ is credited with being a force strong enough to hold the worldโs oceans, buildings, people and atmosphere stuck to the surface of a rapidly spinning ball, then it is impossible for โgravityโ to also simultaneously be weak enough to allow little birds, bugs, and planes to take-off and travel freely unabated in any direction.
And now I cant hear you! I think I must have a flat head
Hoesรช
33) If โgravityโ is credited with being a force strong enough to curve the massive expanse of oceans around a globular Earth, it would be impossible for fish and other creatures to swim through such forcefully held water.
maybe
"it would be impossible for fish and other creatures to swim through such forcefully held water" LOL
34) Ship captains in navigating great distances at sea never need to factor the supposed curvature of the Earth into their calculations. Both Plane Sailing and Great Circle Sailing, the most popular navigation methods, use plane, not spherical trigonometry, making all mathematical calculations on the assumption that the Earth is perfectly flat. If the Earth were in fact a sphere, such an errant assumption would lead to constant glaring inaccuracies. Plane Sailing has worked perfectly fine in both theory and practice for thousands of years, however, and plane trigonometry has time and again proven more accurate than spherical trigonometry in determining distances across the oceans.
Black magic has traditionally referred to the use of supernatural powers or magic for evil and selfish purposes.[1] With respect to the left-hand path and right-hand path dichotomy, black magic is the malicious, left-hand counterpart of the benevolent white magic. In modern times, some find that the definition of "black magic" has been convoluted by people who define magic or ritualistic practices that they disapprove of as "black magic".[2]
i wil camand lihtning to atack you
@Deejay from Earth don't you have eyes !!!!!!! its a flat map
You pasting shit...........................
Yes, shipโs navigators do take account of curvature and use spherical geometry; they use latitude and longitude, which are just angles in a spherical coordinate system - so why use that instead of just cartesian coordinates? They use sextants and almanacs to determine their position on the globe.

๐ค
all you post are just copy paste... and I pasted the reponse to it just here
35) If the Earth were truly a globe, then every line of latitude south of the equator would have to measure a gradually smaller and smaller circumference the farther South travelled. If, however, the Earth is an extended plane, then every line of latitude south of the equator should measure a gradually larger and larger circumference the farther South travelled. The fact that many captains navigating south of the equator assuming the globular theory have found themselves drastically out of reckoning, moreso the farther South travelled, testifies to the fact that the Earth is not a ball.
that response is just under the source where you got it from. Why do you not read further
36) During Captain James Clark Rossโs voyages around the Antarctic circumference, he often wrote in his journal perplexed at how they routinely found themselves out of accordance with their charts, stating that they found themselves an average of 12-16 miles outside their reckoning every day, later on further south as much as 29 miles.
haleluja
ask try purch 100
Im not, was a joke Free speach is important
stopp pasting, we all know your article
They just ignore it
So now we read it together
deejay are you gonna prove these yourself?
we haw been reading evrething\
but no reason to paste it here like a monkey paragraph by paragraph
or are u just some regurgitating retard like how protestant said to me?
37) Lieutenant Charles Wilkes commanded a United States Navy exploration expedition to the Antarctic from 1838 to 1842, and in his journals also mentioned being consistently east of his reckoning, sometimes over 20 miles in less than 18 hours.
because protestant said my education doesnt matter bc "youre just regurgitating stuff people youve never met"
when youre doing the same thing
this is the article, stop posting it
go figure
38) To quote Reverend Thomas Milner, โIn the southern hemisphere, navigators to India have often fancied themselves east of the Cape when still west, and have been driven ashore on the African coast, which, according to their reckoning, lay behind them. This misfortune happened to a fine frigate, the Challenger, in 1845. How came Her Majestyโs Ship โConqueror,โ to be lost? How have so many other noble vessels, perfectly sound, perfectly manned, perfectly navigated, been wrecked in calm weather, not only in dark night, or in a fog, but in broad daylight and sunshine - in the former case upon the coasts, in the latter, upon sunken rocks - from being โout of reckoning?โโ The simple answer is that Earth is not a ball.
39) Practical distance measurements taken from โThe Australian Handbook, Almanack, Shippersโ and Importersโ Directoryโ state that the straight line distance between Sydney and Nelson is 1550 statute miles. Their given difference in longitude is 22 degrees 2โ14โ. Therefore if 22 degrees 2โ14โ out of 360 is 1550 miles, the entirety would measure 25,182 miles. This is not only larger than the ball-Earth is said to be at the equator, but a whole 4262 miles greater than it would be at Sydneyโs southern latitude on a globe of said proportions.
deejay taake a cruise from mexico to australia
tell me how long it takes
40) From near Cape Horn, Chile to Port Philip in Melbourne, Australia the distance is 10,500 miles, or 143 degrees of longitude away. Factoring in the remaining degrees to 360 makes for a total distance of 26,430 miles around this particular latitude, which is over 1500 miles wider than Earth is supposed to be at the equator, and many more thousands of miles wider than it is supposed to be at such Southern latitudes.
41) Similar calculations made from the Cape of Good Hope, South Africa to Melbourne, Australia at an average latitude of 35.5 degrees South, have given an approximate figure of over 25,000 miles, which is again equal to or greater than the Earthโs supposed greatest circumference at the equator. Calculations from Sydney, Australia to Wellington, New Zealand at an average of 37.5 degrees South have given an approximate circumference of 25,500 miles, greater still! According to the ball-Earth theory, the circumference of the Earth at 37.5 degrees Southern latitude should be only 19,757 statute miles, almost six thousand miles less than such practical measurements.
42) In the ball-Earth model Antarctica is an ice continent which covers the bottom of the ball from 78 degrees South latitude to 90 and is therefore not more than 12,000 miles in circumference. Many early explorers including Captian Cook and James Clark Ross, however, in attempting Antarctic circumnavigation took 3 to 4 years and clocked 50-60,000 miles around. The British ship Challenger also made an indirect but complete circumnavigation of Antarctica traversing 69,000 miles. This is entirely inconsistent with the ball model.
There we go! ๐
you carry on at 43 please
remember to do the pics as well
ok, you do those
PICS OR IT DIDNT HAPPEN
well you missed lik 35 pics
I'll help you on the text
hahahahahahaha!
44) If Earth was a ball, and Antarctica was too cold to fly over, the only logical way to fly from Sydney to Santiago would be a straight shot over the Pacific staying in the Southern hemisphere the entire way. Re-fueling could be done in New Zealand or other Southern hemisphere destinations along the way if absolutely necessary. In actual fact, however, Santiago-Sydney flights go into the Northern hemisphere making stop-overs at LAX and other North American airports before continuing back down to the Southern hemisphere. Such ridiculously wayward detours make no sense on the globe but make perfect sense and form nearly straight lines when shown on a flat Earth map.
45) On a ball-Earth, Johannesburg, South Africa to Perth, Australia should be a straight shot over the Indian Ocean with convenient re-fueling possibilities on Mauritus or Madagascar. In actual practice, however, most Johannesburg to Perth flights curiously stop over either in Dubai, Hong Kong or Malaysia all of which make no sense on the ball, but are completely understandable when mapped on a flat Earth
46) On a ball-Earth Cape Town, South Africa to Buenos Aries, Argentina should be a straight shot over the Atlantic following the same line of latitude across, but instead every flight goes to connecting locations in the Northern hemisphere first, stopping over anywhere from London to Turkey to Dubai. Once again these make absolutely no sense on the globe but are completely understandable options when mapped on a flat Earth.
47) On a ball-Earth Johannesburg, South Africa to Sao Paolo, Brazil should be a quick straight shot along the 25th Southern latitude, but instead nearly every flight makes a re-fueling stop at the 50th degree North latitude in London first! The only reason such a ridiculous stop-over works in reality is because the Earth is flat.
48) On a ball-Earth Santiago, Chile to Johannesburg, South Africa should be an easy flight all taking place below the Tropic of Capricorn in the Southern hemisphere, yet every listed flight makes a curious re-fueling stop in Senegal near the Tropic of Cancer in the North hemisphere first! When mapped on a flat Earth the reason why is clear to see, however, Senegal is actually directly in a straight-line path half-way between the two.
49) If Earth were a spinning ball heated by a Sun 93 million miles away, it would be impossible to have simultaneously sweltering summers in Africa while just a few thousand miles away bone-chilling frozen Arctic/Antarctic winters experiencing little to no heat from the Sun whatsoever. If the heat from the Sun traveled 93,000,000 miles to the Sahara desert, it is absurd to assert that another 4,000 miles (0.00004%) further to Antarctica would completely negate such sweltering heat resulting in such drastic differences.

Ok, you're on the floor
What do you see?
You see mainly a flat surface? Why is that? Your perspective relative to your distance to the ground is identical to the ground's perspective. So you're on the floor, it's impossible to see a curve anywhere, because you aren't high enough to see any form of curve. Now, imagine this in a child, still developing and maturing, especially less than 2 years old. they get dropped, they sustain possibly fatal injuries. But, the brain is on almost a 1ms delay on taking any form of stimulus. So, in that 1ms, they open their eyes after falling, seeing that flat surface. It becoms comforting, becomes their perspective
So, with that, if you are dropped constantly, you become more and more aware of your perspective from such a low relative height. And what do you constantly see? A flat surface
Bam, confirmed: flat earthers were dropped as children

Genesis 1:9, "And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so
the question of how can the earth be flat if the water it was created on is spherical in nature and still holds that same spherical shape to this day?
@MR VLAK You only assume the spherical nature - this has never been observed or scientifically proven by anyone.
water by its nature without external influence is what? a sphere
Water takes the shape of the INSIDE of a container - not the OUTSIDE. When you pour a cup of tea, do you pour the water on the inside or outside of the cup?
there was water before God created land. No containers...
Genesis 1:2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
Yeah I'm pretty sure the waters were divided from the waters and there is water above the firmament. Can't really prove that yet but its interesting.
That is very interesting actually. It illustrates it as a globe with "earth" as a flat circle inside it.
"The face of the waters" - sphere doesn't have a face it's the same from all sides. But like the face of a clock is flat. Water is provably and logically flat dude. And seventy percent of the earths surface is covered in water.
@MR VLAK I am truly sick and tired of talking to you now. We can agree that we will never agree and move on.
We can. But then we have to agree not to post Flat or Sphere Earth stuff here?
@MR VLAK Nope, just that you and me will not ever come to a conclusion on the matter. All avenues have been exhausted here and from here it's just a waste of everyone's time. Go do some actual research, and come back when you actually have some proof of your own you can back up with more than just your mouth.
Fine we carry on then. Genesis 1:2 And the earth was without form. Yet you claim it flat because a sphere doesn't have a face

CryptoPunk commented on Sep 2, 2016
The formula laid out doesn't caluclate distance well, as line of sight is not the measure of distance across a globe. instead I would make the assumption that the distance is an arc segment. This has the added benefit that when d_surface_0 < d_surface_1, the heigh for an obscuring object is calculated.
Example python code
from math import pi,inf,acos,cos
R=6371*1000
h_1 = 2
d_surf_0 = R*pi
theta_1 = acos(R/(h_1+R))
d_surf_1 = R*theta_1
print("horizon: %.02f" % d_surf_1)
d_surf_2 = d_surf_0 - d_surf_1
theta_2 = d_surf_2/R
if theta_2 > pi/2:
h_2 = inf
else:
h_2 = R/cos(theta_2)-R
print("height: %.02f" % h_2)

__Experiment 1: Watch a lunar eclipse__
Things youโll need: functioning eyes, the moon, and a telescope (optional).
Every now and again, the Earth passes between the moon and the sun, completely blocking its light and casting a shadow across the moon called a lunar eclipse. If you look closely while this happens, you would notice that the Earthโs shadow forms an arc as it creeps across our view of the moon.
You might respond, โYouโve shown the Earth is round, but couldnโt it be round, but still flat โ a flat disc?โ Well, your eyes and telescope would also spot the 3D spherical nature of the moon. The Flat Earth Society does admit that the moon, the sun and other planets are indeed spherical, but claim that the โEarth is not a planet,โ and unlike other celestial bodies, is flat.
So letโs ignore the moon for now and examine the other member of the eclipse trifecta: the sun.
.
.
__Experiment 2:__
The horizon is one of the easiest ways to validate the Earthโs curvature. As the sun dips behind the horizon, it slips from your view in a bottom-up direction. If you watch the sunset while lying on your back, and then hop up as the last rays disappear, then you should be able to see the sunset again.
Flat Earther concepts donโt stack up, especially when placed against modern technology like global air travelโฆor telescopes.
Instead, their ideas require leaps of faith that far outpace a 5โ0 teenager stretching his fingers toward a rim.
Fake science
But when science experiments are performed incorrectly they can appear to give the opposite result. If they are shared through social media, these false ideas can be spread quickly with no one to point out their flaws. One common example is the Bedford Level experiment, a form of which was first carried out in 1838 and used to "prove" the Earth was flat for over 30 years before an explanation was found.
.
This experiment involved placing a marker at a set height at either end of a canal about six miles long. If the Earth is round, then one marker should appear lower than the other when viewed at the same time through a telescope because the furthest marker would have fallen away with the curvature of the Earth. But it was reported that the markers are the same height, suggesting the Earth is actually flat. Modern day Flat Earth theorists still quote this experiment.
.
The problem is this doesn't take into account the optical effect of the air over the intervening water, which bends or "refracts" the light as it travels from the marker to the telescope and makes it look like they are the same height. The solution is to use multiple markers along the length of the canal which, when observed, all appear to be at different heights.
Perhaps the most impressive experiment that even schools can do today is to send a camera up in a high-altitude balloon. The footage will show that from a high-enough vantage point you can see the curvature of the Earth. This is what Mike Hughes will find if he ever makes his rocket work.
Ultimately, arguing on the internet is not the best way forward for any scientific endeavour. We need to provide the means for people to test these theories themselves and to understand the results they get.
50) If the Earth were truly a globe, the Arctic and Antarctic polar regions and areas of comparable latitude North and South of the equator should share similar conditions and characteristics such as comparable temperatures, seasonal changes, length of daylight, plant and animal life. In reality, however, the Arctic/Antarctic regions and areas of comparable latitude North/South of the equator differ greatly in many ways entirely inconsistent with the ball model and entirely consistent with the flat model.
50) obliquity
Earth has seasons because our planetโs axis of rotation is tilted at an angle of 23.5 degrees relative to our orbital plane โ the plane of Earthโs orbit around the sun.
Over the course of a year, the angle of tilt does not vary. In other words, Earthโs northern axis is always pointing the same direction in space. At this time, that direction is more or less toward the star we call Polaris, the North Star. But the orientation of Earthโs tilt with respect to the sun โ our source of light and warmth โ does change as we orbit the sun. In other words, the Northern Hemisphere is oriented toward the sun for half of the year and away from the sun for the other half. The same is true of the Southern Hemisphere.
When the Northern Hemisphere is oriented toward the sun, that region of Earth warms because of the corresponding increase in solar radiation. The sunโs rays are striking that part of Earth at a more direct angle. Itโs summer.
When the Northern Hemisphere is oriented away from the sun, the sunโs rays are less direct, and that part of Earth cools. Itโs winter.
Seasons in the southern hemisphere occur at opposite times of the year from those in the northern hemisphere. Northern summer = southern winter.
The tilt in Earthโs axis is strongly influenced by the way mass is distributed over the planet. Large amounts of land mass and ice sheets in the northern hemisphere make Earth top-heavy. An analogy for obliquity is imagining what would happen if you were to spin a ball with a piece of bubble gum stuck near the top. The extra weight would cause the ball to tilt when spun.
51) Antarctica is by far the coldest place on Earth with an average annual temperature of approximately -57 degrees Fahrenheit, and a record low of -135.8! The average annual temperature at the North Pole, however, is a comparatively warm 4 degrees. Throughout the year, temperatures in the Antarctic vary less than half the amount at comparable Arctic latitudes. The Northern Arctic region enjoys moderately warm summers and manageable winters, whereas the Southern Antarctic region never even warms enough to melt the perpetual snow and ice. On a tilting, wobbling, ball-Earth spinning uniformly around the Sun, Arctic and Antarctic temperatures and seasons should not vary so greatly.
Same as #50
52) Iceland at 65 degrees North latitude is home to 870 species of native plants and abundant various animal life. Compare this with the Isle of Georgia at just 54 degrees South latitude where there are only 18 species of native plants and animal life is almost non-existent. The same latitude as Canada or England in the North where dense forests of various tall trees abound, the infamous Captain Cook wrote of Georgia that he was unable to find a single shrub large enough to make a toothpick! Cook wrote, โNot a tree was to be seen. The lands which lie to the south are doomed by nature to perpetual frigidness - never to feel the warmth of the sunโs rays; whose horrible and savage aspect I have not words to describe. Even marine life is sparse in certain tracts of vast extent, and the sea-bird is seldom observed flying over such lonely wastes. The contrasts between the limits of organic life in Arctic and Antarctic zones is very remarkable and significant.โ
I wonder what effect ocean currents have on a continent? mmm.. ๐ค
โWhy is the North Pole warmer than the South Pole? I changed it each year, to confuse students who looked at last yearโs exam; โWhy is the South Pole colder than the North Pole?โ Most people have no idea about the geography of the Poles and assume they are climatically the same. They are literally polar opposites and that is important in understanding the significance for global climate.
The major driving force for atmospheric circulation is the temperature difference between the Poles and the Equator โ the gradient. Theoretically, maximum heating at the Equator and minimum at the Poles creates a single cell circulation system (Figure 1).
Figure 1
Rotation is the major perturbation to this theoretical base, followed by surface differences, particularly land/water ratios.
Earthโs elliptical orbit round the Sun is a small factor in determining the temperature difference. Two important points are perihelion, when the earth is closest, and aphelion when it is furthest away. (Figure 2)
Figure 2
The current situation is as follows.
The Earth is closest to the Sun or at its Perihelion two weeks after the December solstice and farthest from the Sun or Aphelion, two weeks after the June Solstice. In 2015, the Earth will reach its Aphelion at 19:41 (7:41 pm) UTC on July 6, 2015.
All this changes as part of the larger Milankovitch Effect, but it means that at present the Earth is closer during the Northern Hemisphere winter and further away during the Southern Hemisphere Winter.
At the risk of stirring up solar specialists, here is one estimate of the insolation difference.
Aphelion Insolation = [(149,597,870.7 km) / (152,098,232 km)] = 0.9674
Perihelion Insolation = [(149,597,870.7 km) / (147,098,290 km)] = 1.0343
Itโs approximately a 6.5 percent variance, which is a minor difference but one amplified by other factors.
@Deejay from Earth Ai tog DJ
thats a kids book
if you base evidence of flat earth
off a kids book
then you have no right to continue this conversation
as all your other info is but improper
@4rvp Agreed. It proves @Deejay from Earth is a lair and fake
Probably paid to respond to messages here
Yea
By some branch of NASA in order to try to get us to defy all evidence, physicists, atronomers, and aeronautical engineers both independent and members of government run space agencies to try and defy us into believing a flat earth so that way we get to bring more popularity towards NASA and other government run space agencies for free.
Exactly just how the neo-left of America in essence is providing more and more support for the far-right groups due to their excessive/superfluous condemnation of actions/speeches without any credible evidence or hunches, based on the sole fact that they have a different political viewpoint
And I'll leave this here, once again, before you make the claim that im some liberal. I was pro-trump during the election, and will be voting for my republican congressmen and senator. I've been arrested for a hate crime against a man of black descent. So, go ahead and call me a liberal, see how true it is when you're on your deathbed with no one around it, because you spend all yourtime arguing with 18 year olds over the internet because of your pseuodo-scientific claims, same with the fake electrical engineer lugnut that is the member protestant
Aye, he left
Never forget
Ag nee, ons maatjie is weg.
Ek gaan volgende maand Filippyne toe, en die vlug tussen Dubai na Manila is in 9 ure daglig. Het so uitgesien om 'n video te maak teen 35'000ft of hoer, en onder sy neus te druk.
Just finished reading all of this lol
