Would that all be fake?
they study what is said about it.
no they study the elements and interactions and study what they do. It does not tell them we live on a sphere
That’s not...
we don't say that what they are doing is fake
Never mind
What I say is that they are taught the same thing we are on a basic level and they choose a field of study based on a false pretense that most can't see their way out of.
the subject matter of that field is made up of what a small group of people declare to be true. it's not that all astronomers are lying or even a significant portion of them, its how they're required to regurgitate supposed facts in order to achieve "credibility" in their field
memorizing claims makes you a researcher, not a scientist.
That and owning a telescope to see it for yourself
So this whole concept of the universe filled with galaxy’s with stars and with planets in a nutshell is all false huh
@gohan (gone for about 5 months) it cant be true because some guy with a telescope can't possibly see more than I can
And I see my backyard
And it's a rectangle
Like
Flat rectangle
And the sun moves across the sky
So yeah
And eclipses dont exist
Because the sky is fake
Telescopes*
Kek noice
no need for sarcasm. we're just having a dialogue. I'd be a hypocrite to expect anyone to believe these things overnight
Fair
But you are not most FEs
One disputed light having physical properties
i understand your guard must be up since things can get hostile on here, given it is called "discord" heh
Now
I'm going to ask a simple question
And I hope you can answer it
Why is downwards acceleration not constant across the whole earth but constant locally?
haven't a clue.
Ok
Here's the thing about gravity as a theory, it is highly consistent with what the common person an observe in day to day life. But just cause it's consistent within our observation, doesn't mean it is the true explanation. If that makes sense. so here is my simple motto that oddly makes many people furious when i share it:
perception is dependent on reality, but reality is not dependent on perception
Ok
so basically, if something is true, it doesnt matter if we are aware of it, or how we feel
Ok
our goal is to have our perception in line with reality
with the senses we have
