The sphericity of the Earth was known by the 3rd century BC (Eratosthenes), so it is ridiculous to give "flat Earth" arguments any credence or consideration. There is no "half-truth" involved, just sheer ignorance. Those who cannot easily demolish the spurious "flat-Earth" arguments should be ashamed of their own lack of education.
The account from Moses dates from the end of the Bronze Age, and is not intended to be detailed astronomical or other exposition. God was not explaining the universe we know to someone who could understand it. There are hints of a rotating whole Earth in the Book of Job (7th-4th centuries BC).
Hmmm...Let me get out my bible and re read that. You make my point. "God was not explaining the universe we know to someone who could understand it." So,...it was a half truth, depending on context. My point was that it isn't about flat/globe. Someone doesn't want people asking questions and checking things out for themselves, reading the bible, science and history...old maps. What are your thoughts on NASA? Space program all legit? Big Bang? Is the science of virology bogus? Does mind control only work on other people? Are their really "bloodline families"? Frankly, anyone even debating anything contrary to the official narrative should be ashamed of their lack of education.
You are mixing a controversy salad. I will comment on NASA. The space program is legit. We went to the Moon as advertised. After that, the German influence was fired out of the organization and the visionary leadership was replaced by bureaucratic survival, leading us to dead-end programs like the Shuttle and International Space Station (and the search for extraterrestrial life). Stay tuned for the ignominious demise of the Space Launch System, as SpaceX takes the lead.
If one is going to debate, it is folly not to be fully prepared to win. Sometimes, the official narrative is correct, and one has to be able to know when that happens. Murky suspicion is just a recipe for conspicuous failure.
I question the legitimacy of NASA. Went to the moon? Yes. Faked most of what was shown to the public? Yes Any idea why all of a sudden there was a big race to get to the moon? What was suddenly so urgent that we had to go get rocks and set up seismographs? For a very long time the scientific community considered nova events to be the death of a star. Now we suspect a star may well nova many times in it's live, cyclical. It was long a mystery why we found short half-life radio active material on earths surface. Astronomers spent thousands of hours searching for the remnant's of a very near by super nova (had to be very close) to no avail. Turns out it wasn't a super nova at all. Rather, a reoccurring micro-nova...and the star doing it was way closer than we had hoped to discover. Apollo confirmed this.
Wasn't there a video called something like: "How to Create a Mind Slave Using a Stun Gun" produced by NASA in Jon Benet Ramsey's father's office? Yeah, I question the legitimacy too.
You just need to read your history. 1961 and Gagarin is the first man in space, when the world seemed to be balanced between the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. Kennedy threw down the gauntlet and it was an honest-to-God race that we won. And what are you going to do when you get there? Just walk around and take selfies? There were legitimate scientific questions to answer, some of them necessary before the landing in order to provide information about the stability of the surface.
I would say you are full of bunk. Look up the entry under his name in the 1959 edition of Collier's Encyclopedia. (I happen to have a copy. Read all about it, and learn to spell his name correctly.)
My bad. I've been reading so much lately I got dates confused. I'm pretty sure pythagoras is made up though. There was some weird mathematic based religion and that's all they know for sure. Pythagoras was more than likely a group of men not just 1 man.
My bad, I meant Pythagoras wasn't ever mentioned in books until the 1980s. Ertosthenis' experiment didn't prove anything though. I've never in my life seen parallel sun rays so idk how his stick shadow experiment proved anything except sun rays come in at different angles depending on your location relative to the sun's position in the sky.

What if I told you he was never seen in text books until the 1980s. Eratosthenis that is.
