Now, things get sticky here because Hendrie is pretty anti-Catholic,
At least you admit this is "sticky".  You are basing your beliefs on the teachings of anti-Catholics.  Doesn't that set off any alarms for you?

"Troll" would be a fascinating word to use to label someone who's been a CathInfo member for 2 months short of 2 years, and has already accounted for more than 2,200 postings (counting only C.I.).  But maybe it would be accurate.
2,000 of which are on the “flat Earth”.

If globalists did not have literal globe belief as the basis of their religion they would not be rreminding us of it everywhere you look.

Are they afraid you might lose your faith in the ba'al?




Now you're confusing and conflating the Hebrew word ba'al (the name of a false god/demon) with the English word ball

Only an ignorant, monoglot fool would mix up these two completely different words. Do you really think they have the same etymology? 

Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you an even more ridiculous argument than "Those who believe the Earth is a globe = Globalist"!


https://www.etymonline.com/word/ball

ball (n.1)
"round object, compact spherical body," also "a ball used in a game," c. 1200, probably from an unrecorded Old English *beal, *beall (evidenced by the diminutive bealluc "testicle"), or from cognate Old Norse bollr "ball," from Proto-Germanic *balluz (source also of Dutch bal, Flemish bal, Old High German ballo, German Ball), from PIE root *bhel- (2) "to blow, swell."

Meaning "testicle" is from early 14c. (compare ballocks). Ball of the foot is from mid-14c. Meaning "rounded missile used in warfare" is from late 14c. A ball as an object in a sports game is recorded from c. 1200; meaning "a game played with a ball" is from mid-14c. Baseball sense of "pitch that does not cross the plate within the strike zone" is by 1889, probably short for high ball, low ball, etc.

Ball-point pen is by 1946. Ball of fire when first recorded in 1821 referred to "a glass of brandy;" as "spectacularly successful striver" it is c. 1900. Many phrases are from sports: To have the ball "hold the advantage" is from c. 1400. To be on the ball is from 1912; to keep (one's) eye on the ball in the figurative sense is by 1907, probably ultimately on golf, where it was an oft-repeated item of advice. Figurative use of ball in (someone's) court is by 1963, from tennis.

The head must necessarily be steady, for it is most important that you should keep your eye fixedly on the ball from the moment that the club-head is lifted from the ground until the ball is actually struck. "Keep your eye on the ball," should be your companion text to "Slow back." [Horace G. Hutchinson, "Hints on the Game of Golf," 1886]
ball (n.2)

"dancing party, social assembly for dancing," 1630s, from French, from Old French baller "to dance," from Late Latin ballare "to dance," from Greek ballizein "to dance, jump about," literally "to throw one's body" (ancient Greek dancing being highly athletic), from PIE root *gwele- "to throw, reach." Extended meaning "very enjoyable time" is American English slang from 1945, perhaps 1930s in African-American vernacular.

ball (v.)


1650s, "make into a ball," from ball (n.1). Intransitive sense of "become like a ball, form a compact cluster" is from 1713; that of "to copulate" is first recorded 1940s in jazz slang, either from the noun sense of "testicle" or "enjoyable time" (from ball (n.2)). Related: Balled; balling.

If you look back, I also called them out on this very thing and explained what you explained. It does not make sense. To get technical, it's not even the definition you gave, even though that's what most people think of when they hear "globalist", myself included.
A globalist is:
a person who advocates the interpretation or planning of economic and foreign policy in relation to events and developments throughout the world.


To me, it's the same as calling sedevacantism the word "sedeism". Even if you hate sedevacantism you have to get at least mildly annoyed by this sort of speech. I still laugh a little to myself when I see some call it that, in an attempt to really "get" the sedevacantist. They use it in a derogatory sense, yet it makes little sense. The belief system of chairs? LOL
You mean to say Flat Earthers would draw conclusions based in a fallacy of equivocation? That they could actually be stupid enough to think that belief in the Earth as a globe and globalism have something essentially in common because of an accidental use of a word?
Indeed they would, they could and they are!
I don’t think Flat Earthers are stupid because of their belief; even if the Earth turned out to be flat, I would still think they are by-and-large literal morons because of the MANNER in which they have presented themselves in arguing for that belief.

Sure, it must just be a coincidence. 

But thanks for teaching us that ball really means testicle, seeing ad how their false god was a bull.
