Oh and may i ask what part of gravity is so hard to believe?

2019-07-12 17:18:57 UTC  

Not proven

2019-07-12 17:23:29 UTC  

@Platinum Spark There is a lot of debate. Various theories. No proof on that one I know of.

1: Perspective causes it. Along with light also only traveling so far then it blacks out.

2: Light only travels so far then blacks out. Perspective or not causing these. It travels further in the thin air up above which is why above things are still lit up.

3 The Firmament is shaped in a special way to send the light down to earth and to cause sunup and sundown. Some of their experiments look not that bad.

4 We live on a four dimensional earth. Thus what we see depends on where we are. All we ever see is a shadow of the fourth dimension. This also would explain why we do not see the angels all around us. How God does what God does. God sees the fourth dimension as do the angels. This is my personal belief though I question it. It is a lie that the fourth dimension is time. I do not buy that at all. Time is nothing at all like the three dimensions we see.

Viewing a dimension that’s above our own will of course be different

2019-07-12 17:29:13 UTC  

It wouldn’t make sense if we saw higher dimensions the same as our own

2019-07-12 18:10:19 UTC  

If it were the case that the Earth was a sphere what differences would you expect to see?

2019-07-12 18:17:06 UTC  

The equation confirmed by trig. The curve is .666 feet times the number of miles squared. I never ever see that. This would be 66.6 feet in just ten miles. Many lakes are that wide. Yet on a calm day I can lay down by the water and see the other side. No curve at all.

I became a Flat Earther when I saw Norfolk Harbor from 40 miles away. No 1200 foot curve existed. I saw the sailboats all the way down to touching the water all over the Chesapeake Bay. Not one was blocked by any curve and the water looked very flat. It was a very calm day. A very clear day. Very abnormal for around here.

2019-07-12 18:18:49 UTC  

Brief question where are you getting the 666 feet figure?

2019-07-12 18:20:00 UTC  

I use the equation A^2 + B^2 = C^2. It confirms 8 inches times miles squared. 8 inches is .666 feet.

2019-07-12 18:20:54 UTC  

Tilt of earth is 23.4 or 66.6 degrees. Speed of earth zooming around the sun 66.600 MPH. Yes a lot of 666 in the claims of a ball earth.

2019-07-12 18:21:28 UTC  

They never say 66.6 degrees because people are too smart to buy 666.

2019-07-12 18:22:00 UTC  

How do you utilize the equation exactly?

2019-07-12 18:22:42 UTC  

Also you said 666 feet times miles squared earlier

2019-07-12 18:22:53 UTC  

I use A = Radius. B = distance. The Square root is taken to get C then I subtract the radius to get the curve.

2019-07-12 18:23:17 UTC  

It is in miles so I multiply to get feet.

2019-07-12 18:24:29 UTC  

0.666 feet.

2019-07-12 18:25:01 UTC  

Should have added the 0 to make it more clear the decimal point.

2019-07-12 18:25:25 UTC  

0.667 if you round correctly

2019-07-12 18:25:46 UTC  

Or 0.666666666...

2019-07-12 18:25:52 UTC  

Isnt C = 2piR the circumference equation?

2019-07-12 18:26:05 UTC  

It is

2019-07-12 18:26:15 UTC  

Pi is not used.

2019-07-12 18:26:28 UTC  

It is just a triangle.

2019-07-12 18:27:05 UTC  

Why would you use a triangular calculation to calculate a curve?

2019-07-12 18:29:48 UTC  

Because it is easy way to confirm the 0.666666... feet per miles squared. I only did it a few times. It is something like 0.6661 or something like that. I just said 0.666 because that is a symbol and it is very close to it. I would never care about the thousandth I could be off in the calculation.

2019-07-12 18:30:55 UTC  

You know that that formula describes a parabola and not a circle?

2019-07-12 18:31:26 UTC  

lmao you used the Pythagorean theorem

2019-07-12 18:31:32 UTC  

Yes but I want a triangle not a circle.

2019-07-12 18:31:35 UTC  

I don't even know how that relates to the curvature of the earth

2019-07-12 18:32:00 UTC  

That parabolic equation is known to be false and using the proper (Sine) formula you can get it closer

2019-07-12 18:32:16 UTC  

If you assume the Earth is perfectly flat all that formula would give you is the distance between the point you're looking at and whatever distance you set as the radius

2019-07-12 18:32:21 UTC  

Or use a readymade calculator like this https://www.metabunk.org/curve/

2019-07-12 18:32:30 UTC  

In mathematics, the Pythagorean theorem, also known as Pythagoras' theorem, is a fundamental relation in Euclidean geometry among the three sides of a right triangle. It states that the area of the square whose side is the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares on the other two sides.

2019-07-12 18:32:34 UTC  

So whatever point you were looking at compared to an unspecified point below you

2019-07-12 18:32:38 UTC  

don't know how this is mildly related to the curvature of the earth

2019-07-12 18:33:00 UTC  

You go down to the center of the earth. The radius it is called. You go out for however many miles it is. Use google earth or something to see. So two sides of a triangle at a right angle. Then C is the distance from the center of the earth up to meet the line of sight. That will give you the curvature you should see.

2019-07-12 18:33:33 UTC  

line of sight is not perpendicular

2019-07-12 18:33:35 UTC  

lol no you don't use the Pythagorean theorem to find the curvature of the earth

2019-07-12 18:34:00 UTC  

It would absolutely be. The curve would be below the line of sight.

2019-07-12 18:34:21 UTC  

h = r * (1 - cos a) is accurate for any distance

2019-07-12 18:34:45 UTC  

@mineyful Yes doing that would prove the earth is a ball. Don't do that. Is that what you are saying?
