By the way,
.
I'm still waiting for any flat-earther to produce their measurement of the angle between the sun and moon at the hour of first or last quarter moon.
.
This is not "conjecture" or "misrepresentation" or "confusion and a consistently unscientific approach," but rather it is objective fact, which flat-earthers run from like the plague.
.
And they do so, complaining all the way!!
.
Same question, from which the flat-earthers run away like it's radioactive or something.
.
By the way, get your measurement just before the first quarter (will be in early evening) and just after the last quarter (will be in early morning), for best results.

"My, oh my.  So many words, so little said."

Uh,  wrong.  The Church has spoken and you have nothing to say except to mock the messenger.  Proving once again, against the truth there is no argument.

The Virgin of Guadalupe appeared on Tepeyac Hill in Mexico City in 1531.  This location has been determined to be in the geographical center of North and South America, and that is on a globe earth, with curvature, parallel lines of latitude, and non-parallel lines of longitude. But flat-earthers can't seem to understand that kind of thing, to their discredit.
.
Therefore it is most possible to determine whether Jerusalem is in the center of something, or not. But as far as that goes, any point on the surface of the earth could be considered the center of all the earth's surface. Again, flat-earthers will find that going right over their heads, like the moon and sun do.
.
The fact that the earth is a globe is in evidence all around us, if we will open our eyes and use our minds to think logically. But flat-earthers abhor logic and reason, because it challenges their sacred cow, a false god by the way. They're breaking the First Commandment!
.

It's embarrassing to see your continual lack of charity toward those Catholics here who believe in a flat earth. Haven't you noticed that it's not getting you anywhere to continually treat flat-earthers as being really stupid, with continual put-downs? And now, you are saying that we are breaking the first commandment. That is going too far.

I fail to see how the location of Our Lady of Guadalupe has anything to do with a flat earth.

Here is a map of the world showing Jerusalem in the center:



...and here is another:



What sort of earth do these images represent? Are you saying that the equator is the "center of the earth," on a globe? Is the equator commonly known in scientific terms as being the "center of the earth?"

Come on,  now.  In the center on a globe is an oxymoron.
