No legs no movement

Do flat earthers believe in dinosaurs?

2019-03-18 17:01:53 UTC  

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

2019-03-18 18:50:49 UTC  

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?

2019-03-18 19:28:44 UTC  

that's a big oof

2019-03-18 20:42:00 UTC  

they cant

2019-03-18 20:47:48 UTC  

earth chan isn't flat

2019-03-18 20:47:54 UTC  

REEEEEEEEEEEEEE

2019-03-18 22:13:32 UTC  

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

2019-03-18 22:17:44 UTC  

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

2019-03-18 22:18:09 UTC  

It is a law of nature

2019-03-18 22:59:02 UTC  

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

2019-03-18 23:08:31 UTC  

@vazorium who sees it?

2019-03-18 23:08:32 UTC  

also are you a geologist?

2019-03-18 23:08:46 UTC  

@vazorium are you a curvature scientist?

2019-03-18 23:09:02 UTC  

Who sees the curve?

2019-03-18 23:09:29 UTC  

Name one person not related to government that sees the curve

2019-03-18 23:10:10 UTC  

ancient sailors for one

2019-03-18 23:10:30 UTC  

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

2019-03-18 23:11:33 UTC  

They never saw a curve

2019-03-18 23:12:13 UTC  

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

2019-03-18 23:12:17 UTC  

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

2019-03-18 23:12:34 UTC  

Seeing something disappear is not seeing a curve

2019-03-18 23:12:49 UTC  

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

2019-03-18 23:12:50 UTC  

The angular resolution of the eye is .02 degrees

2019-03-18 23:13:09 UTC  

It doesn't make less sense. Look into it

2019-03-18 23:13:11 UTC  

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

2019-03-18 23:13:12 UTC  

I dare ya.

2019-03-18 23:13:39 UTC  

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

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

2019-03-18 23:15:18 UTC  

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.

2019-03-18 23:15:24 UTC  

Huh

2019-03-18 23:15:37 UTC  

Where did you get that info?

2019-03-18 23:15:45 UTC  

Ever hear of visibility?

2019-03-18 23:15:49 UTC  

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

2019-03-18 23:16:01 UTC  

K show me the calculations.

2019-03-18 23:16:12 UTC  

Alright, just a second...

2019-03-18 23:16:16 UTC  

Then realize there is something called visibility.
