How is it possible every nation in the Antarctic treaty has held up their end of the deal? No oil exploration? Nothing? Seriously? Why does John Kerry keep going there? He may be a Globalist climate radical, but seriously? He's not a scientist! Why is every thing these people have done exactly like Nazis? Even down to medical experimentation?Where did those 43,000 german women who were shipped to Antarctica at the end of WWII go? Is it possible we are actually dealing with the 4th Reich? Did Nazis really escape to Antarctica? Why can't a plane traverse it? Why are all plane paths set to completely avoid it? Environmental reasons? For real? If you believe that, I've got a bridge to sell you! What is our reality? WHO or WHAT is in Antarctica?

Seems like Flat Earth cannot explain how it can be daylight (high noon) in one part of the world and dark night (midnight) in another part of the world, at the same time.
Round Earth explains it. How would Flat Earth?
Seems like Flat Earth would require the Sun to somehow revolve around the Earth, which brings up a whole other slew of problems.
Well... I did my research, and found a bunch of verifiable facts that flat earth can’t explain that round earth can. For example, why do we all see the same moon as a circle, and not an ellipse? Why does the sun rise and set, instead of just getting smaller when not overhead? Why do different hemispheres see different stars at night (people in australia and argentina both see the same stars that europeans can’t, and can’t see north-only stars like Polaris)? What on earth is a lunar eclipse? Without curving the earth, the only way to explain a lot of these things is to curve space, or curve light. If you think this is what’s happening, provide equations. And also provide a map of the world, with conversions from latitude and longitude to polar coordinates. And the paths of the sun and moon, spherical or cylindrical coordinates, your choice. Give something testable. Something that can predict eclipses, predict what the night sky will look like down to the locations of stars, and something to explain why the sun’s light won’t reach me at night (any “spotlight” explanation comes with its own problems too). And also, I’d like to see a map that preserves both the distances and angles between places that we see in real life.
Don’t try to use that tired “do your own research” line to hide from questions you can’t answer. The globe model has a simple set of equations and can make verifiable predictions. If you want to prove flat earth is legitimate, give a mathematical model.
Agreed. I would be happy to just have someone give THEIR OWN BRIEF explanation of how it supposedly works if the Earth was really flat.
Nobody ever does that.
I don't expect everyone to have worked out equations. I do expect that SOMEBODY in that community has worked out the equations that others can check out, but let's start with a BRIEF explanation of how it supposedly works.
Just "do your research" or "we been lied to" doesn't cut it. It never will cut it.
If they can't convince people like us to check it out and consider the "evidence" then they will never convince 90% of the population to even give it a passing thought.
That is harmful to the truth movement, not helpful.
Give a brief explanation. I have not gone fully down that rabbit hole. You are right.
And the main reason is it does not make sense on the surface level, and NOBODY has EVER given me even so much as a brief explanation of how it could satisfy my questions.
I find that odd.
Maybe you will be the first. Rather than just dismiss what I said, what is the basic explanation of how my question could be answered?
This is the problem I am talking about. There is WAY too much info out there on multiple topics to absorb it all. Too much to learn, too little time to learn it.
So, I asked for a brief overview, but you only gave me a link to 3 videos to watch.
No time, man. Give me YOUR brief explanation.
If you really believe it is worth checking out, you should be able to explain it in a short paragraph or three.
Nobody has EVER done that, so I don't take it seriously. If the people who believe it can't give some sort of brief overview, then why should I bother diving into something that would take hours, if not much longer to really dig into it?
Especially, when it makes no sense on the surface level.
How can it be both day and night at the same time, on a flat surface?
Doesn't it necessarily mean the Sun revolves around the Earth in some why? If not, then how does it work?
I'm just asking for some basics to get me past the "not worth the time" that I am seeing.
We should of course be aware that much of what we have been taught is false. But that does not mean that EVERYTHING we've been taught is false. More importantly, it does not mean we should believe (or even spend much time on) pursuing EVERY possibility that someone can come up with.
The burden of proof is on he who makes the assertion.
