Hello, I've noticed the flat earth issue/debate is often discussed here on CI. I know nothing about it, so I'd appreciate some guidance. Can someone point me to specific, detailed resources covering the basics of how spherical earthists have deceived the entire human species for hundreds of years? I'm more interested in the how and the why than mathematical equations. Is there concrete evidence? What is the foundation for the thesis?
I can only guess that the diabolical is at work in the deception, as with Darwin & the death cult of evolution.
I'm sincerely curious. This is not a troll.

This video is what got me "off the fence" about flat earth.  These are real experiments, not random pictures, etc.

Another place where the Globe Earthers shoot themselves in the foot.  They claim that due to the earth's rotation, the earth actually turned into an oblate spheroid due to the centrifugal forces involved, and yet these same forces have zero effect in terms of displacing the water on the earth.  Due to these forces, you wouldn't have a consistent sea level around the "globe" but would have the oceans bulge at the lower latitudes.  Oops.  Centripetal forces should be higher at the equator, and so the same mass at the equator should weight a bit less than at the poles, but experiments have actually shown the opposite, that they weigh a tiny bit less closer to the north pole.

I love this comment beneath the video as the globers tried to swam it with ridiculously desperate comments.  This says it all about Globe Earthers, such as Dankwad here.  It's about confirmation bias. They latch onto any flimsy nonsense as proof but then dismiss everything out of hand that is inconsistent with their preconceived notion.

Greek fella yes. Modern groups of scientists with high range equipment no."

This confirms that this type of equipment is accurate to within centimeters.

Looks similar to what they were using.



If I ever hit the big-time, I'll get some of these and conduct my own tests.
