The reason you say, "does not interpret Scripture the way you do" is merely because you disagree with the interpretation. Not because the Church doesn't interpret it literally. Or as we have shown. In fact, the Church does do this because Scripture reflects flat earth perfectly and that's how Fathers and saints interpreted it. As the Fathers, Scripture and the Church do. Continuing to say it doesn't work this way is utterly false and dishonest. We have proof, agreement, and understanding with Scirpture and Fathers who teach about the earth. You have nothing.
You have asserted a lot of things but you have not shown them. You have been shown that some, but not all, of the Fathers believed in a flat earth and then, starting around the 6th century, globe earth became the dominant view. Many Saints and Doctors of the Church believed in a globe earth. The Church never taught that the earth is flat or that Scripture shows the earth is flat. That is the personal interpretation of a tiny minority of Catholics who ignore the Church's teaching on principles of Scripture interpretation.
If you really had all the proof and agreement that you claim to, I would expect to see many traditionalist Catholics, including priests, holding the flat earth position. But we do not. Instead, we see a extremely small number of laity and no priests who accept it. And many of these people exhibit cult-like behaviour, willful ignorance, intellectual dishonesty, and general nastiness.
You are wrong. Even someone like Ladislaus, who is open to believing your science claims, can tell you that your claims about Scripture and the Fathers do not hold up. You are so blind that you do not see that you are the one who has nothing.
