The Chinese believed the Earth was flat until the 17th century when Jesuit missionaries arrived in China, were hired as astronomers at the imperial court and convinced the courts and scholars that it was a sphere.

There are also Chinese records going back over 10,000 years, disproving the Young Earth Creationist narrative.

Oh sure there is

2018-11-04 15:34:15 UTC  

Why do you believe everything you see

2018-11-04 15:35:29 UTC  

So you're willing to choose one piece of evidence that supports your worldview but ignore another that contradicts it.

2018-11-04 15:39:41 UTC  

Hey dumbass when did i say i believed any of that bullshit

2018-11-04 15:48:41 UTC  

Sick of your bullshit

2018-11-04 15:49:03 UTC  

Everytime we post something you repeat the same bullshit

2018-11-05 15:07:01 UTC  

oof

2018-11-05 21:49:39 UTC  

Im guessing that lad is banned?

2018-11-11 13:42:42 UTC  

Justify your point

2018-11-11 13:43:07 UTC  

You are trying to elude the topic of how your belief system was created

2018-11-11 13:43:21 UTC  

Why are they?

Maybe if you spent your own time trying to prove your belief system, you might get some answers you're looking for

Astronauts put a retroreflector on the moon so anyone with a high powered laser could shoot it at the retroreflector would have the laser bounce back to earth.
Pretty sure it still stands on the moon to this day.

There is different types of eclipses. First, solar eclipses, I think it is the moon blocking the sun, which I believe could be possible no matter the earths shape. Some eastern cultures believe it's another dark body like Rahu that is blocking the sun and that the moon is actually behind the sun. 2 reasons for this. 1. They believe there should be earth shine reflecting from the earth back to the moon and so we should be able to see the moons face, but we don't. 2. If it was the moon blocking the sun then the edge of the moon they believed would show as rough with craters and mountains but to them was smooth with no rough edges. Next, lunar eclipses, I've not been able to explain really without speculating myself. I've seen some interesting things about them. The shape of the shadow varying is interesting as it's not always as curved as they say it is from what I've looked at. Before people scoff at this line of questioning about lunar eclipses they should take into account that all eclipses have been predicted before the globe model was invented.

The theory of a round earth is based off the fact that the moon has a curved shadow on it and we can't see the sun so it was assumed that it was the earth that was casting the shadow. The issue with that is that there is what is called Selenelion eclipse, which is when the observer can see the sun and the moon in the sky above the horizon at the same time, which means its impossible for the earth to be casting the shadow onto the moon, also the shadow is seen coming from the top down, which is weird because the observer would assume the shadow should be coming from the bottom. The color of the lunar eclipes turning red is very odd, considering the earth has a bright blue aura. It's thought the light scatters to a red color but if thats true then the moon should get a blue aura, then red, then blue again as it passed through earths shadow, but we only see the change from normal moon colors then to red.

U asked about eclipses

2018-11-19 03:49:05 UTC  

No one is exactly sure. As no one has ever seen the moon approach or leave the sun

2018-11-19 03:49:37 UTC  

Have you heard of the saros cycles

2018-11-19 03:57:47 UTC  

NASA used this old method to predict eclipses
