Fernand Crombette wrote about this:

"if what the Bible says is true, Jerusalem is at the centre of the world. He made up his mind to look into the matter. During his researches he discovered that Father P. Placet, a monk in 1668, had written a work entitled “The proof that before the Flood, there were no islands and that America was not separated from the rest of the world”.
Knowing also of Wegener’s thesis on continental drift, he returns to the libraries (and towards the end of his studies, during the war 1939-1945, at the University of Grenoble) to find geological and bathymetric charts in an attempt to reconstitute the primitive single known to geographers as the PANGEA.
Crombette’s inspired idea led him to look below the present contours of the continents, which vary according to the sea level, to the extreme edge of the continental shelf at a depth of 2.000 metres, where the sea bed falls away in a sharp drop into the ocean depths of 4.000 metres. Sixty years later, sub-marine drilling have confirmed that the continental granite shelf, beneath the marine sediments, is, in fact, found at this point. The motivation for his research at such a depth was Bible-based because he took the cosmogenic thesis of Kant, according to which the “waters on high”, separated by God at Creation, formed a water vapour ring around the earth which produced the forty days of great rain during the Flood.

As for "maps", what's the definitive Globe map, eh?  Why is it that there are 100 different "projections" in existence?
.

It is a globe. No flat map can accurately portray the surface of a sphere. The various projections necessarily distort the surface of the earth in various ways. That's why there are multiple flat versions of the map; they all distort the shape of the land masses in various ways, and it's just a matter of which type of distortion someone is okay with.

But a system that claims the earth is flat should be able to produce a flat map of the earth that is perfectly accurate, i.e. that portrays correctly the size and shape of all land, and accurately portrays all the distances between all known locations in a manner that accurately matches observable measurements of distance when people travel from those locations to other locations. For example, if someone sails from one location to another and measures the distance he sails, that is the measured distance between those two points. A map that is accurate will portray the distance between those two locations as being the same as the distance measured by the sailor. Or, if someone claims the sailor did not measure the distance correctly or did not take the shortest route, it would be that person's burden of proof to sail between those two points and measure the distance himself, and then to produce a map that would accurately reflect what he measured.

Thank you. I’ve answered his objections multiple times in the past and I prefer not to do it again. It is completely pointless to try to convince people who are unwilling to accept logical conclusions from irrefutable and demonstrable observations and evidence.

:facepalm:  This is not how true science works.  First, you hypothesize a theory, then your theory takes shape (pardon the pun), then you test it out, then you explain it in practical terms.

Some guy in a barn just invented the combustible engine for a car, and you're asking for the design schematics of a 1950 Ford, Model T.  "Oh, you may have invented an engine, but if you can't show me a car design, it'll never work."  :facepalm:

Your expectations are completely stupid and show your lack of critical thinking.

I've never seen an FE map that corresponds with people travelling by jet from Perth, Western Australia to Buenos Aires, Argentina.

The jets fly over Antarctica on one side of the magnetic pole, and comes back on the other side. The compass interaction is a separate subject.

But passengers can look at their analog watches and find their trip takes 14 hours, whereas any FE map shows it would take about 3 times as long as that.

The real life trip corresponds clearly with the globe model.
