    It is not the disk that has the four corners.

    The plane is not infinite.

    I like leading self professing globe earthers into a trap. Thanks for posting the link to the image with 4 corners on a circle. :D

    A circle does not have corners. If you’re going to arbitrarily  quadrisect a circle and call the resulting imagined sectors “corners” then one can accomplish precisely the same thing with a sphere by dividing it into four equal parts with axes in three dimensions instead of two.
    The only thing you’re accomplishing with the posts is to consistently demonstrate what a moron you are : not for your belief in a flat Earth but for your inability to engage in any kind of logical thinking.

    You claim the Earth is a flat disk and maintain that your belief is founded in a literal reading of scripture: the Bible states “four corners of the EARTH”: make up your damned mind.

    The land is circuмscribed within the waters which encompass that land.  The corners are found on terra firma beyond that.  Remember, you're mocking Scripture now, not flat earthers. Just because you see some map on flat earth on Youtube doesn't mean that is the true map.  Flat earthers don't have access to the elite telescopes and the big money it takes to research, and they are blocked by things like the antarctic treaty.  Simple facts prove earth is flat because water doesn't stick to the outside of a sphere in any microcosm.  It can't be proven and the physical laws prevent it.  Water doesn't stay curved on the surface--a notion that is ludicrous.  Sea level and horizon don't make sense on a sphere.  The only proof globe believers have is pagan religions that taught the sphere and NASA to feed them false science.

    • Earth has four corners because Scripture describes it thus.  Something incompatible with a sphere under any circuмstance.

    It is not the disk that has the four corners.

    The plane is not infinite.
    If the plane is not infinite, how can the horizon always stay at eye-level as you claim it does?
    Is it’s not infinite then it has edges a finite distance away, and if it has edges a finite distance away, the angle from ones eyes to these will increase as one increases the vertical distance. This is an indisputable a priori fact of geometry, and it doesn’t depend upon whether o e is talking about point on a flat plane or point on a sphere. That is why ANY OBJECT a FINITE distance away immediately SINKS from view as one goes up. For there to be a perpetual horizons at eye level, there has to be MORE OF THE SURFACE coming into view as one ascends; if the surface is finite, this is not possible. Are you literally brain damaged that you cannot comprehend this?

    If it’s incompatible with a sphere then it is incompatible with a disk.
    And either way it is incompatible with a literal reading of scripture: disks do not have literal corners.

    Who said earth is a disk? Only the inner land mass is circular. The Fathers discuss this.

    .
    Asking a flat-earther to understand this is like asking him to understand that a theodolite in fact shows a level line of sight from a high mountain, and it does not intersect the horizon but stays well above it in the clouds.                He just don't get it.
    .
    Nor does he get it when the joke's on him. Get it?    :jester:
