2020-02-20 21:27:16 UTC  

I agree, @Strike

Wanna see pregnant Hitler

2020-02-20 21:27:31 UTC  

last warning, @Saggy puss lips

2020-02-20 21:27:36 UTC  

Okay sorry

2020-02-20 21:28:51 UTC  

yes but the earths gravity moves the axial tilt along with the earth as it rotates

2020-02-20 21:33:19 UTC  

On a globe, there's no change in axial tilt as you travel along the surface because the center of mass is always downward.

That's why saying things like "water is always level" doesn't mean much because water is always level on a globe earth too.

2020-02-20 21:34:19 UTC  

Water would be curved actually on a globe not level

2020-02-20 21:34:32 UTC  

water is curved AND level

2020-02-20 21:34:35 UTC  

on a globe

2020-02-20 21:35:06 UTC  

level doesn't necessarily mean flat.

2020-02-20 21:35:32 UTC  

is this flat shelf level?

2020-02-20 21:35:56 UTC  

if the vase were filled with water, it would be completely level even on that slanted surface

2020-02-20 21:36:12 UTC  

no. it's not level. So what makes it level, then?

2020-02-20 21:36:24 UTC  

"flat or even surface"

2020-02-20 21:36:28 UTC  

Dont try to reinvent the wheel

2020-02-20 21:37:23 UTC  

dictionary definitions don't mean anything in this example, you guys. if that shelf isn't level, then what makes something level?

2020-02-20 21:37:40 UTC  

if you pour WATER into the VASE on that shelf, the WATER will be LEVEL

2020-02-20 21:37:43 UTC  

do you understand?

2020-02-20 21:38:04 UTC  

I'm not talking about water in a vase, strike. that shelf is NOT level, but it IS flat.

2020-02-20 21:38:09 UTC  

do you get it?

2020-02-20 21:38:14 UTC  

sure

2020-02-20 21:38:16 UTC  

what makes something level then?

2020-02-20 21:38:28 UTC  

being flat

2020-02-20 21:38:32 UTC  

sigh

2020-02-20 21:38:34 UTC  

water would be become fully flat on the globe

2020-02-20 21:39:31 UTC  

wait your actually arguing this

2020-02-20 21:39:32 UTC  

but that defies the natural principles of water

2020-02-20 21:39:51 UTC  

no it doesnt think intuitively

2020-02-20 21:39:59 UTC  

you're ignoring the claimed principles of a globe earth, which is that objects are pulled to a center of mass.

2020-02-20 21:40:02 UTC  

you have a force that pulls all the water to the centre of the earth

2020-02-20 21:40:07 UTC  

look, obviously that model makes sense because thats what they taught me and everyone for years and years

2020-02-20 21:40:14 UTC  

yes
