Im pretty sure the bible reference is very vague. I don’t recall any text that outright calls it flat

2019-09-23 14:43:19 UTC

2019-09-23 14:44:06 UTC

2019-09-23 14:44:37 UTC  

“Do your own research” is probably what they’ll say.

2019-09-23 14:45:07 UTC

2019-09-23 14:45:28 UTC

Flat-Earth theorists marshal a number of biblical passages to defend their assertion (e.g., Joshua 10:12-13; 1 Chronicles 16:30; Psalm 93:1; 96:10; 104:5).
One notices instantly that almost every passage cited in favor of the flat-Earth position occurs in a poetic context. To be responsible readers of the Bible, we must respect the genre of literature we are reading. Poetry is to be read differently than prose; it is more expressive, emotional, and metaphorical.
In fact, taking biblical poetry literally would, in some cases, pervert clear scriptural teaching elsewhere, leading to the belief that there are many gods instead of one God (Exodus 15:11; Psalm 86:8), that humans are really gods (Psalm 82:6), that thunder is the voice of God (2 Samuel 22:14), that God slays sea monsters (Psalm 74:12-14), and that God has wings (Psalm 61:4).
Obviously, these passages cannot be understood for what they literally say.

There are atheist flat earthers, though. Not so much on this server, but I've encountered many on other servers.

2019-09-23 17:24:49 UTC  

Hello

2019-09-23 17:25:57 UTC  

hello

2019-09-23 17:26:22 UTC  

Do you believe in the flat earth too?

2019-09-23 17:28:09 UTC  

no

2019-09-23 17:28:20 UTC  

I believe that the earth is flat

2019-09-23 17:28:23 UTC  

ok

2019-09-23 17:28:27 UTC  

how come

2019-09-23 17:28:29 UTC  

Why don't you?

2019-09-23 17:28:46 UTC  

Well, if you look at the other planets they're round

2019-09-23 17:29:18 UTC  

Well, all the ones in our solar system

2019-09-23 17:29:25 UTC  

And the earth used to be round to yeah

2019-09-23 17:29:48 UTC  

But the trouble is life can't exist on a globe, as gravity will pull it into the centre and destroy it

2019-09-23 17:29:58 UTC  

Only microorganisms can survive

2019-09-23 17:30:12 UTC  

ones that can't be killed by an attack if you get what I mean XD

2019-09-23 17:30:30 UTC  

So, sometime in the past (either 7000 or around 4 billion years ago)

2019-09-23 17:30:38 UTC  

The plates of the earth went crazy

2019-09-23 17:30:48 UTC  

and the core exploded and over time pushed the eaerth flat

2019-09-23 17:31:11 UTC  

and then the micro-organisms bred over time and evolved

2019-09-23 17:31:14 UTC  

and created man :)

2019-09-23 17:31:16 UTC  

happy days

2019-09-23 17:31:19 UTC

2019-09-23 17:31:45 UTC

2019-09-23 17:31:47 UTC  

Do you believe in that at all

2019-09-23 17:31:49 UTC  

oh right XD

2019-09-23 17:32:01 UTC
