I find it funny that so many on this site attack flat earthers, yet they buy into all sorts of "crazy" conspiracies. You already know our government lies about everything, but somehow NASA tells the truth?

I thought flat earth was the dumbest thing I've ever heard of. I absolutely could not believe there are people dumb enough to argue the earth is actually flat. Most logical people simply dismiss the idea. Well for fun I actually researched it. About 100 hours later, I am absolutely convinced the earth is not a ball spinning 1,000 miles per hour that orbits the sun at 67,000 mph in a solar system blasting through space at over 500,000 mph in a galaxy that is rocketing through space at 670,000,000 mph. Somehow our atmosphere is neatly contained on this ball completely unaffected by all of this motion, sitting up against the vacuum of space somehow without the gas pressures being equalized. This is just a small example. The biggest thing that got me is that when a ship disappears from view at sea, you can zoom in onto it from miles away with a zoom lens or telescope and the ship will come back into view. The curvature of the earth (if it existed) would completely obscure that from being visible. There is zero actual observable curvature, aside from the use of fish eye lenses which curve the image. Every single photo of the earth from space we have was done on a computer.

Check out Eric Dubay on YouTube, he's one of the more well-spoken and well-researched and level-headed (pun intended) flat earth researcher I've come across. It's entertaining if nothing else.
