It was active 2 days ago. Can you try to control yourself?

This thread is about fun family activities for the Fourth of July.

Or, this thread is perhaps all about how Smugley the introvert passes judgment on others he's never met.
Just like the thread title says, "Why don't you believe the Earth is flat? Think about how to insult people you disagree with!"
No, sorry, that's not the title, is it? It invites everyone to practice their most malicious ad hominems, doesn't it?
Thereby demonstrating how vastly superior flat-earthers are at common decency and good manners................

............................NOT.

Some families are having 4th of July parties this weekend since they couldn't stay up Wednesday evening.
.
There's still time! Children have a lot of fun with home theater.

Writing the scripts stretches their wings in composition so by the time they take it in school, it's just a REVIEW. Instant "A."

Now it seems some viewers are offended with bold, italics, underline, and exclamation points, so here is a plain text version.

Question asked:  
.
-- "Why don't you believe the Earth is flat?"
.
.
Question answered -- ("If the earth were really flat, then...") :
.
-- My ship never sailed off the edge.

-- We never even had to adjust course to avoid it (the edge).

-- None of the other sailors I’ve met have any stories of this either, and believe me...

-- Thousands of sailors would have tens of thousands of stories about it.

-- You couldn’t keep a secret like that for long.

-- The Default Seafaring Battle Tactic would have been (if the earth were "flat") :
    To drive someone else’s ship off the edge of the earth if you were anywhere near it.

-- The internet would be clogged with pictures of the edge where another continent is supposed to be.

-- Trash would be falling off the edge instead of floating around until it sinks.

-- People would be getting Viking funerals in which their barge is set on fire...

-- And sent off the edge in a big BALL of fire... (that would be a lot of the pictures, I think)

-- The point is, people are quick to proactively benefit from any guaranteed way of disposing of something they don’t want.

-- And it’s hard to keep them quiet when something like that exists.  Besides that, 

-- There are orbiting satellites, airplanes, Physics, and other things I can directly observe to tell me it’s round.

-- Also my husband is a scientist and he laughs at the idea that you can convince thousands of people ...

-- People who disprove each other’s work for a living -- they are professional disprove-each-others ...

-- To get them all to lie in unison.

-- Murders would be committed by sending people off the edge.

-- Hijacked planes would be flown past the edge if they were near it.

-- This could go on forever
