thats what my above paragraph was on

but okay

if nasa has a blackhole budget (clever pun), why would they be stupid enough to leave evidence behind about the moon landing being fake? An organization of such immense power wouldn't leave openings for people to doubt them

Alright, @Stick Boi has been warned for '**Bad word usage**'.

How? Oh.............

Alright, @Stick Boi has been warned for '**Bad word usage**'.

Alright, @DownSyndrome Cory has been warned for '**Bad word usage**'.

Any word beside FU CK bypasses quite often

saying the underage looking anime girl your attracted to is 2000 is not a genuine excuse, and ur still a pedo
thankyou for coming to my TED talk

anyone wanna debate

no

k

The Earth is a wet pancake - change my mind

The Earth is a Dino - Change my mind

No legs no movement

Do flat earthers believe in dinosaurs?

If the earth was flat why would the government lie about it?

Three questions I have for flat Earthers-
1) Have ever you had any prior knowledge of (Classical) Geometry?
2) How do you explain the different heights of shadows at different places of the Earth?
3) How do you explain the visible curvature in high heights and disappearences of ships over the horizon?

that's a big oof

they cant

earth chan isn't flat

REEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Why is gravity formally known as "Newton's LAW of universal gravitation"?
Let that sink in.

wait, are you for, or against the reality of gravity?

It is a law of nature

Yes
Perspective
There is no visible curvature at high heights unless you are looking at things like NASA or redbull.
Optical slant. @روح ادریس

"We can see the curvature of the Earth but we came up with this other explanation that makes less sense so let's go with that." @Citizen Z

@vazorium who sees it?

also are you a geologist?

@vazorium are you a curvature scientist?

Who sees the curve?

Name one person not related to government that sees the curve

ancient sailors for one

like if you're going across an ocean you can literally see it. this has been documented for centuries

They never saw a curve

okay they were all government spies who time traveled to fool us in the modern age

Its called optical slant. It looks as if something is disappearing from the bottom up, but its just the way light and the eye or lenses works

Seeing something disappear is not seeing a curve

sure, buddy, go with the explanation that makes less sense

The angular resolution of the eye is .02 degrees

It doesn't make less sense. Look into it

"The angular resolution of the eye is .02 degrees" how would you know this?

I dare ya.

nah I'll prove how it makes less sense. how would you know this "The angular resolution of the eye is .02 degrees"

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naked_eye#Basic_accuracies

Yiu are not seeing a curve. You are just losing resolved light

If the angular resolution is 0.02 degrees, which it approximately is, then we should literally see over 10,000 miles from a commercial flight by known phenomenon of optical slant.
Of course, we don't, because earth curve.

Huh

Where did you get that info?

Ever hear of visibility?

You can do the calculations by assuming a flat plane and a 0.02 degree resolution

K show me the calculations.

Alright, just a second...

Then realize there is something called visibility.

WHAT CAUSES GREAT VISIBILITY?
http://www.theweatherprediction.com/habyhints/276/

You forgot about that

Plus, we do see further when up higher.

Waiting for your calculations

h/tan(0.02 degrees) = d
h is observer height, and d distance to horizon. It gets about 3.2 miles at 6 foot observer height, which is more or less accurate. But at altitudes like 40,000 feet, it blows up.

@Citizen Z got up for a sec, glad you responded. why do you trust Wikipedia, a wiki anyone can edit, as a reliable source for "The angular resolution of the eye is .02 degrees"?

@Technomatrix so you discount visibility?

Visibility, sure, but on a clear day, we should see much father than we do in reality

@Technomatrix do you live inside a vacuum?

On a globe, it makes sense. On a flat earth, not so much

@Technomatrix prove it.

well, I got perspective accounted for. Now I'll just need footage from commercial flights

@vazorium it's not just wiki

@Citizen Z what primary source would you trust and why?

So you disagree?
The angular resolution of the eye is not .02 degrees?

@vazorium please show me your findings

I'm interested

@Citizen Z you made a positive claim, I want to see how you go about proving it

Test it

You have optical measurements that precise? lmao

Earth is round

Debate settled

Show me that it's wrong. I have no reason not to believe it. Its verifiable

Unlike the globe

Globe has been observed flat earth hasn't

@Bear. who observed the globe?

Did you?

@Citizen Z So, hold on a second, when people who disagree with you post primary sources from scientists you presume they're part of a government conspiracy but when you find Wikipedia articles that proport science-sounding facts they're gospel.

Why are some scientists' claims valid and others not?

@vazorium no. I'm saying optics is verifiable. Space is not.

Gtg for a bit.

@Citizen Z Right, so we can trust medical science now? Are *you* going to tell *me* that vaccines don't cause autism like medical science says?

This form of reasoning is extremely ad-hoc.

@vazorium I never claimed vaccines cause autism. However it's possible there is a correlation.

@Citizen Z Medical science says vaccines definitely do not cause autism. Again, ad-hoc reasoning.

The onset of symptoms of autism is around the same time vaccines are given. That's all

Autism is from birth

@vazorium ok. Your opinion based off a belief. See how that works...

It's like trying to say going to hospitals makes you sick

You didn't go to the hospital and then got sick. You were sick prior to going

@Citizen Z my "opinion" on the matter of the shape of the Earth is based on facts as stated by experts, something you are willing to do, blindly, for the anomy of the eye. if the former can be dismissed because of allegations of conspiracy, why is there no suspicion of conspiracy when it comes to human anatomy?

@vazorium appeal to authority

Not an argument

There's definitely medical conspiracies but this ain't one

@Citizen Z Appeal to authority is a valid argument, and something you will use in regards to the anatomy of the eye. Also, prove Appeal to Authority is a fallacy.
