I never knew someone could be so dumb

They don't he's usign a source code that asserts light bends down in air.
I have photographs of reality that shows light bends up in air.
He uses his model to say flat earth isn't real because the model doesn't match observations

When if you show light curving up, it matches reality perfectly

What are these photos that show light bending up

I just wanna know what it looks like cause like

?

Do you mean like a beam of light shone through air actually bends *upward*

But I wasn't using bislins model to prove whether the earth is round or not? Im interested in Astrophysics as a profession.

Astrophysics is hella interesting

Takes a lot of work but super interesting

Also hey while I’m here I’ve always wondered something about flat earthers but never had the chance to ask

WHAT IF ... WHAT IF .... walter bislins is a flat earther that doesnt wanna telll any one

But I'm not talking about Walter bislins

Even if earth is flat or round or whatever else you wanna believe, why does it matter?

so you dont get lost in space

Like we are all very obviously alive here and not directly affected by the shape of the planet we live on

Now who in 2019 aside from top level well trained professionals will be going to space

waste your life thinking about the stars and leaving the planet and ther is no god and other stupid crap that never helps you do the right thing

I’m just legitimately curious about why it matters to you and me

Common folks like us

?_? i just told yoiu

do i have to RIGHT a essay that you wont read

Write*

I mean no other animal on the planet thinks about much of anything complex much less the shape of the planet

And they get on just fine

What does the shape of the planet have to do with “doing the right thing” though

I’m not trying to pester you, I’m just really curious

And yes I do want to see the essay. It'll be pretty interesting. Please define a proper thesis and restate it in the concluding paragraph.

😄 well ill get back to you on it

Wait really?

Awesome. Send me a DM of it when you're done

I understand that general beliefs are fundamental parts that make up morals and all that but what does the shape of the planet have to do with that

The only time it ever even comes to mind is if I have some spare time and am just thinking about random stuff for the hell of it

I just asked a question about applying to NASA tho :c

it has never factored into any part of my morals or major decision making

I could attack the flat earth model and the logic of it all but why do that when the concept of arguing over it doesn’t really add up in the first place

I know humans are competitive creatures by nature and will look for conflict where it may not even exist, but I feel like surely there could be a more fulfilling or logical conflict than arguing over the shape of the planet

I guess as humans we are curious beings and with that we need to excercise thoughts that may pop in our heads.

The cost of being intelligent is to become curious. Being intelligent separates us from humans and animals.

Well then let’s argue over the shape of the planet when space travel is widely available

I know curiosity and deep thought are grand concepts that have launched humanity eons ahead of other species
