You're calling US the mental retard? You're a child. Next tell me you believe Santa is real. That's how fucking retarded flat earth theory is. Tell me how people sail AROUND the world all the time? Flat earthers never leave their basements and can't understand the world around them. Flat earth theory is an insult to God. It makes ZERO sense. God is an awesome creator and the fact we live on a globe that's spinning through space is awesome in itself. So stop insulting God with this flat earth nonsense.
There are 2 topics that seem to bring out the shills hard and heavy...... The flat earth and the jewish domination of the world, can you say "Over the target"
If it is any consolation, there are some good arguments put forward by FE. And a retort like Makow does, by pointing out what still needs to be explained in an FE model is not a retort at all.
When Galileo put forward his Heliocentric worldview, those with a geocentric worldview had their consciousness challenged. A Danish scientist did not fully agree with Galileo. Tycho Brahe developed a system that did perfectly explain observed movements of heavenly bodies.
Kepler decided on the side of Galileo, after having spent thousands of hours calculating.
When Erastothenes when down to Seyene, to measure the difference of length of shadow on the noon of a certain day of the year, what is often overlooked is he measure the north- south direction, based on the idea of parallel rays of a distant light source (sun) on a curved surface.
This we can replicate ourselves if we would care to put in the money to do so.
It does not proof the earth to be a globe in all directions. That is something that needs to come from different tests that can be replicated with correct observations.
So, it may take some time to develop the idea further. I can only, in the furtherance of general knowledge, encourage that inquiry.
The question then becomes: what works?
As I said before in another response: as a mariner, the heading for Buenaventura from Auckland is different on a globe to a flat plane. For all practical purposes: the globe system works.
I see no convincing arguments here, although I agree that many of the arguments put forward indeed are quite childish.
I personally keep an open mind, as I do not profess to know, as my experience is limited in many respects.
So, when I find an argument or two that leaves me shy an answer, and no one else has taken up the cause of answering it, I remain open to the idea that I cannot answer that particular question.
It does not mean the total system of FE is correct. But what does conform to our observations, see the Tycho Brahe system, does not by default means that it is a correct definition of our reality.

There are zero good arguments for flat earth that a 7 year old with a basket ball and a flashlight can’t disprove.

Maybe that is just to subtle for you.
When it’s daytime in the United States why can’t you see the sun when you’re in China if the world is flat?
