It has little to do with FE'rs being scintillating or lacking objectiveness, it's about RE'rs being closed minded. No offense.
FE has been made out to be the red headed stepchild of conspiracy theories. Even some of the lamest videos I've seen have some valid points supporting FE. For many it's just too far outside of their comfort zone to have an open mind to. You can tell by how quickly they bash, insult, and try to shutdown any FE comments.
I even made a post a number of months ago, if you're not open minded to FE then you may not be as awake as you think. Or something like that. But I don't see how some can think our entire reality is a fabrication, except that. lol
I think some of the terminology needs to change to lessen the fringeness of it. Such as instead of flat earthers, maybe Bible literalists, and instead of flat earth, I like dome-icile (play on domicile)
I would not say those who believe in the bible believe in the FE. Quite the contrary, for most. Isaiah 40:22 uses the Hebrew word (rendered Chug or Khug) which can be translated either circle or sphere. "It is He who sits above the circle of the earth,
and its inhabitants are like grasshoppers; who stretches out the heavens like a curtain, and spreads them like a tent to dwell in."
Keep in mind that a globe, from any angle, will appear as a circle.
For another biblical perspective on the shape of the earth, Ecclesiastes 1:6 gives us this; "The wind blows to the south and goes around to the north; around and around goes the wind, and on its circuits the wind returns."
Both of those verses were written 3,000 + years ago.

Don't worry I completely agree with you on FEs/REs there. I'm kinda playing dumb.
