You ought to make an appointment with a psychologist because you have a mental defect.
.
Every one of the eclipses mapped in the past or the future are entirely possible on a globe and have been explained as such.
.
The fact of the curvature of the earth is ESSENTIAL for the eclipses to have the paths they do.

Why are you kidding? The spacing is a little off, perhaps that's a bad translation.

"Pagan Science"

Is that like "Gender Studies"?

What the deuce does something like that even mean?

Not possible on a globe.
You're not a drug addict, are you? If you did some hallucinogen and then went on a forum, I could totally see that.

Your picture quotes two diagrams each of which were made to illustrate a different lesson.
.
The top image neglects to show how every part of the sun's aspect emanates light in all directions.
.
That is done to simplify the lesson that the sun's rays are parallel -- inasmuch as the sun is shining from one direction.
.
We don't have sunlight shining from 90 degrees to the right or left or up or down, for example.
.
The bottom picture shows how the various parts of the sun shine toward the moon at different angles.
.
They are angles so very close to zero that to keep the message above simple they are not considered.
.
But during an eclipse, even very small angles come into play, so much so that most of the small angles are not even being mentioned!!
.
Oh right...parallel rays or not.
