"the roundness of the Earth, for not without reason is it called 'the orb of the world' on the pages of Holy Scripture and of ordinary literature. It is, in fact, set like a sphere in the middle of the whole universe." -Saint Bede (De temporum ratione, 32).
This statement can only be understood in light of what the Church has always taught.  What isn't clear by Bede's statement is the fuller picture of how the Church Fathers and saints understood it.  That creation is indeed a sphere, with the firmament being the top of the sphere, flat earth where people live in the center, and the pit of hell at the bottom, together forming a globe.  Pictures of this are represented in many bibles, both ancient and new.

Scripture, Church Fathers, Pope Alexander VII and a myriad of saints    
Once again, I requested any reference where the Church teaches the world is flat.

If the earth is flat why not just sail to the edge and send us picture?
Lucky for you, someone has recently been to the "edge" and has seen where the dome meets the earth.  Cosmas of Indiocopleustes and other explorers also explain exactly what it looks like which is identical to the Encyclopedia.  So, while I haven't been there, others have and described it for us.

Once again, read what's posted before you continue to demand.  What is posted here is more than sufficient to address the question, unless you care to learn something and I can continue for days on end.  There is that much proof that the Catholic Church teaches geocentric flat earth and condemns the pagan heliocentric globe.  And for those who have Faith, in the Church, in scripture, in truth, no additional proof is needed.  For those who do not believe, no explanation is possible.  Take what you will.

Are you unable to produce a single reference to the Church teaching that the Earth is flat?  
Conjecture, reasoning, and speculation aside, I'm sure you must have at least one authoritative reference you can share
