You have the mind of a petulant child, the mouth of a freshly grounded teenager, and if it weren't for your inability to handle yourself like an adult I'd think someone was paying you for the sheer amount of posts on this topic since you joined up last year.

If you want to try another experiment, try this:
1. Take a paperbag.
2. Draw a frowny face on it.
3. Place it over your head.
4. Stand in a corner.
5. Say "I will never compare another Catholic to a Baal worshipper over something as ridiculous as Geocentrism/Heliocentrism or Round Earth/Flat Earth."
6. Say "I will not post online until I go to confession and consult my priest."
7. Say the Rosary.
8. Repeat as many times as necessary until the urge to post on this topic leaves you.

You'll thank me later.

This is an amazing piece of self-description you have written!

Truly, the only petulant child in the flat earth argument is yourself, because you have no arguments whatsoever.

This is the sad fact that you simply cannot escape.

Choose to disregard the Bible verse, choose to disregard the math, choose to insult me for being a woman, but the one FACT that you cannot get around is that there are no indicators nor any photographs of ANY curvature of the earth whatsoever.

None.

There are literally thousands upon thousands of beautiful photos of the flat plane of the earth and not a single solitary photograph of any curvature or any photo that shows the earth to be a ball.

I'm going to be charitable, and ASSUME that you believe at the very in least in the geocentric, stationary, un-moving earth of the Bible.

Therefore, the video you have posted is an idiotic attempt to refute the change of position of sunspots in the course of a day as it crosses the sky BECAUSE your video's explanation of the movement is THE EARTH'S ROTATION UPON ITS OWN AXIS.

You know, as well as I do, that this is NOT true. The earth DOES NOT ROTATE UPON ITS OWN AXIS, nor does it GO AROUND THE SUN.

THE EARTH DOES NOT MOVE.

Your explanation is worthless.

From YOUR source:

Quote

Both pictures show the same sunspots (sunspots are officially numbered and these two are 1203 and 1204 in case you wonder). The first photo was taken in the morning and the second just before sunset, and you can see that the location of the sunspots is very different. Why is this? It is not due to the daily movement of the sun (actually it is the earth which moves). It is also not due to the rotation of the sun around its axis (the sun rotates around its axis, and this rotation changes the location of the spots, however, the change is visible after a day or two and not just after several hours). The reason is simply the rotation of earth around its axis.

1 Chronicles 16:30
Fear before him, all the earth: the world also shall be stable, that it be not moved.

Psalm 93:1
The LORD reigneth, he is clothed with majesty; the LORD is clothed with strength, wherewith he hath girded himself: the world also is stablished, that it cannot be moved.

Psalm 96:10
Say among the heathen that the LORD reigneth: the world also shall be established that it shall not be moved: he shall judge the people righteously.

Psalm 104:5
Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for ever.

So far, I've not seen one proof for round earth that holds up to scrutiny, yet they claim 50. No empirical proof. No verifiable experiments. No personal hands on. No scriptural proof. No saints. No Fathers of the Church. Just lots of talk, parroting and videos supporting NASA, a freemasonic institution bent on destruction of the sciences. The answer is obvious. Earth is not a globe.

AMEN!

Supposition. Alternative interpretation. Guessing games. And this is supposed to be compelling evidence that earth is a globe? Plenty of words but zero content. This is just little kid behavior, opposition for the sake of opposition, and reminds me of this:

Antarctica has many settlements, and there is no ice wall nor dome.

It even has warm freshwater lakes surrounded by coal-rich hills.

You once again forgot about the Genesis account of the flat earth dome, as in the image below. :roll-laugh2:

No, I didn't forget about Genesis.

When I read the Bible I have never seen "flat earth" anywhere in it, even in corrupted versions like the New Revised Standard Version or whatever. That's because I try not to READ INTO the Scriptures things that I would like to find there. That's a Modernist bad habit.

God created he flat earth as described in Genesis of the Holy Bible. The flat earth is not modernist.

The horizon always appears perfectly flat 360 degrees around the observer regardless of altitude. All amateur balloon, rocket, plane and drone footage show a completely flat horizon over 20+ miles high. Only NASA and other government “space agencies” show curvature in their fake CGI photos/videos.

Someone has no idea how scripture works. Allegory, descriptives and parable are lost on you. One can easily wonder by the comment above whether you are indeed Catholic. Reminds me of Protestants who say scripture doesn't say Mary was a virgin or immaculately conceived.

Neil Obstat's reasons for posting anything on flat earth threads are deeply suspicious.

He knows that pointing out the bases on Antarctica, has nothing to do with the flat earth.
one can be flat earth and believe in bases on Antarctica.

But he is not flat earth himself. So why he is posting about it since it is an internal matter for flat earthers? He is trying to cause trouble.

notice how he ignores the posts of male users, and almost solely picks on the female users. Easy prey. Anything that doesn't fit with what he says, he just ignores. (because that is usually what male users challenge him on)

Without evidence, something by way of science or perhaps from scripture, or from Catholic Tradition, or even empirical or personal proof, there is no case for globe earth. Had there been five proofs, which is 10% of the claim, at least there'd be SOMETHING to hold on to. But there isn't even one solid proof!

Globe theory is 100% spin.
