It has become clear that you don't really believe in a flat earth, which would be ridiculous. What you're doing is practicing your communist dialectic, which uses ridicule and invective to assert false statements and then proceeds as if those falsehoods were correct. But they're wrong and you're wrong: wrong, wrong, wrong!

Because it is true that if the earth were flat, there would be no way of predicting the solar eclipses. Especially in regards to this one coming in August, because the starting location of the moon's shadow on the surface of the earth is a direct consequence of the spherical shape of the sun, the moon and the earth, as well as their placement in space, with the moon at 240,000 miles from earth and the sun at 93,000,000 miles from earth. (approximate figures for the purpose of this discussion) And then, the curved path the eclipse will take is further a function of the curved shape of the earth's surface, since it is spherical. The moon's shadow becomes more circular in the middle of America then grows oblong again as it enters the Atlantic Ocean, again a consequence of the curved surface of the earth.

If the sun and moon were only 3,000 miles (give or take) from the "flat" earth (as the flat-earthers claim) none of this would be happening in August. There would be no penumbra that covers the entire North American continent nor would there be a small concentrated umbra that passes from the Pacific coast to the Atlantic coast of America. The moon's shadow (flat-earthers say it's not the moon's shadow at all but some other body but they can't seem to identify what the body is) begins with an oblong shape (not round) due to the projection of its round shape onto the curved surface of the spherical earth. The shape of this shadow is possible to become verified by aerial photographs when it takes place, for one, but the flat-earthers will no doubt claim that's all Photoshop or CGI. Riiiight. It's a conspiracy of disinformation worldwide concentrated on making flat-earthism look ridiculous, you see. ....... NOT!

Flat-earthism doesn't need any help looking ridiculous. It does a great job all on its own looking ridiculous.  

Ultimate fail when a cite uses an exhibit that is contrary to the claim.
Ancient Mayans smarter?  There used to be a big ole mutt down the road that played in the road, chasing its tail and and cars all day that I'm pretty sure was smarter than flat-earthers.
