Flat Earth?

Flat earth is not just a conspiracy, it is an outright religion. Any attempt to try to convince the adherents of that faith in sound logic or natural law is as productive as trying to convince an elderly tribal medicine man to stop molesting children to "cure them of demons". Luckily, the latter hurts others, the former only hurts themselves, so why expend any effort trying to educate individuals who are beyond education. Instead, let's build them a temple. Maybe in NYC. Then intelligent people will recognize a little easier that it's not worth wasting effort on members of the FLERTH church.

ETA: It definitely can be amusing to see what some of them believe though. [LOL] Sounds like a nut.

Maybe there is some flat earth info in the latest wiki leaks drop.

What if that guy doesn't have his ice scraper because his wife used it on her minivan in the morning and forgot to give it back to him?

Tangentially related: met a retired U2 pilot last weekend. Super interesting fellow & a new friend. Nifty photos & stories too.

I've truly tried to understand the flat earth claims and not just blow them off. I've even spent some time reading flat earth websites to see how they explain it. But each and every explaination I've ever read or that's been explained to me doesn't stand up to even a tiny bit of scrutiny.

I had a long discussion with a friend once who obviously spent a huge amount of time "educating" himself about flat earth. He believed it and could answer most of the gotcha type questions.

But what he couldn't explain is how all of the applied science that uses calculations that account for the spin of the earth, the curvature of the earth or gravity could be faked. He couldn't explain how every engineer, physicist, pilot, long distance shooter, etc etc etc was using fake math to do real things. And that's where the conversation ended.

I think anyone who at least heard of newtonian or classical/mechanical physics, they should excuse flat earth crap that sun, black holes and entire galaxies evolves around the earth.

I think high school physics does gravity experiment on earth and object, and undergrad does gravity experiment against 2 small objects.

I beg those people please do not travel outside of US and embarrass us.
