I cant see the strawman because a strawman is in my view.

2020-01-02 18:19:48 UTC  

Strawman too close to the face, need to take a step back

2020-01-02 18:20:43 UTC  

You know whats weird.

2020-01-02 18:20:53 UTC  

no

2020-01-02 18:20:57 UTC

Christians used to belive earth was round. Even in times christianity was mainstream religion, way before space travel.

2020-01-02 18:21:32 UTC  

Only differentce is that they didnt belive in heliocentric model.

2020-01-02 18:21:33 UTC  

Most still do.

2020-01-02 18:21:49 UTC  

But they were among some of the first to help support the institution of such.

2020-01-02 18:21:55 UTC  

@Flat earth BEAST whats your proof for god?

2020-01-02 18:22:27 UTC  

I bet its "good is needed for us to exist" or something like that.

2020-01-02 18:22:43 UTC  

Or another kind of "look around you" argument.

2020-01-02 18:23:02 UTC  

iirc weren't christians very anti-globe, they went to an extent to kill galileo because of his ideas. in every middle ages drawing it's always some flat earth with a dome bs

2020-01-02 18:23:48 UTC  

wdym "used to" majority do

2020-01-02 18:24:16 UTC  

Its werid how the whole flatearth movement started in 18th century. Ya know. Way before nasa was a thing. Hell at that time. Atheism was almost non existent.

2020-01-02 18:24:43 UTC  

They did kill Galileo, but you forget that at first they broadly supported his endeavours

2020-01-02 18:24:59 UTC  

It was only when public sentiment seemed to sour did they turn their back on him.

2020-01-02 18:25:34 UTC  

i think that's false, flat earth can be seen since the judeo-greek era. it was just forgotten in the age of enlightment

2020-01-02 18:25:51 UTC  

You mean remembered.

2020-01-02 18:26:44 UTC  

nah heliocentrism and round earth weren't mainstream until the age of enlightenment (where reason is the most important)

2020-01-02 18:27:06 UTC  

even a bit in the renaissance

2020-01-02 18:29:20 UTC  

i've learned that it's a common myth that flat earth was just some random thing brought up recently but it was commonly believed by everyone before the great renaissance.

2020-01-02 18:30:08 UTC  

it's cool that when people started finally taking reasoning and logic seriously we finally figured out that the earth is round

2020-01-02 18:32:39 UTC  

@gilgamesh god exists, you need to seek him out. read the bible

2020-01-02 18:34:28 UTC  

But doesnt bible just straigh out state that god exists?

2020-01-02 18:35:02 UTC  

@AngryShark @gilgamesh only one of them is fake. hint: it's recent

2020-01-02 18:36:14 UTC  

not my question

2020-01-02 18:43:58 UTC  

So the ancient people who barely knew a thing and had very primitive technology were correct?

2020-01-02 18:44:26 UTC  

Greeks also eventuality determined mathematically that the Earth was probably a globe

2020-01-02 18:45:21 UTC  

The Arabs and Indians also had math that determined Earth was a globe

2020-01-02 18:46:54 UTC  

I recall they did, but wasn't certain

2020-01-02 18:47:37 UTC  

Why are those non christian religions used as proof when they are wrong because they arent christianity

2020-01-02 18:50:16 UTC  

because Christianity is truth

2020-01-02 18:50:43 UTC  

ok

2020-01-02 18:51:18 UTC  

Why use the other religions to justify flat Earth then?

2020-01-02 18:51:20 UTC  

but those other religions arent. So why are they being used as proof?

2020-01-02 18:51:52 UTC  

Why use nasa to justify the globe

2020-01-02 18:52:06 UTC  

They think the flat model is justified

2020-01-02 18:52:10 UTC  

Cuz Earth is the name of the planet?
