@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?
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.
😂
Seriously gtg now. Look it up.
@Citizen Z Emojis aren't arguments. Where did you learn appeal to authority is a fallacy?
Further, if appeal to authority is a fallacy, then you can't claim to know facts about the eye.
😂
Appeal to authority is when you assume that just because someone is an authority they're right
Authorities can be wrong. That's the whole point of conspiracy theories
@April at 7:36 PM
*"Appeal to authority is when you assume that just because someone is an authority they're right"*
And? Citing facts as discovered by the experts is not a fallacy.
By default, there's no reason *not to* assume a given authority of a subject matter is wrong about said subject matter. You'd have to prove the authority is wrong.
And saying "Oh they're paid by the government." isn't proof of this.
Now, if the authority is *invalid*, say taking a layman's opinion and using it as a source, I would agree that's a fallacious argument.
I can't post pictures. But at 1000 feet altitude, on a flat earth, we could see about 542.5 miles given our angular resolution, while on the globe, the curvature would stop it at 38.7 miles.
Flat earth simply doesn't match reality.
😂
😂
And you can see the bottom obscured by that curvature
Longer distances could be seen due to refractive circumstances

April. You need a wake up call... hospitals are one of the WORST PLACES for catching viruses or worse... even though they help you get well. ITS WHERE SICK PEOPLE GO WITH THIER DISEASE AND VIRUS.. i worked for 6 years in ICU and Cardio care units.. Mersa and worse is there
Autism 30 years ago was a 5-6 in a 100 maybe.... today its like over 30 %.. you tell me whats changed... ill tell you.. The MANDATORY VACCINE PROGRAMS
Perhaps not the best analogy but you get my point
@vazorium it's fallacious to assume an authority is correct simply because they're an authority
It's equally as fallacious to assume an independent party is correct simply because they're independent
@April Would you represent yourself in court if you were being tried? Or would you have some bum on the street preform an operation upon you if you were injured?
I would look at track records for ability
Thanks for demonstrating my point.
If the bum could show he was skilled then sure
And fwiw I have represented myself in court
