Mega Thread The Flat Earth Mega thread.

[darthbards]

So, I read a couple of things. From what I could tell, the modern movement started in the 50s and it uses the Bible as evidence. There was the thought that science was trying to con people and move them away from religion. I saw some different things on the ice-wall but some said it was only 45m high.

I was wondering, if flat Earth dismissed most science, what are their thoughts on climate change? What happens if that ice wall melts?

This is one misunderstanding but I'm glad you mention it. Some of our members are religious but our movement isn't. You will find plenty of Chtistians etc who follow the ball loving ideologies also. Our movement has members from a number of religions,races etc just like any other.

At the FES we don't dismiss science,we believe our theories to be scientific,we dismiss fraudulent science and believe many only believe in fraudulent science as a means of dismissing the religion of faith. We believe their beliefs more anti and negative than truely scientific. We believe most ball lovers don't have genuine scientific interest and their negative attitudes easily manipulated and that they are easily brainwashed by the religion of fraudulent science. We at the FES are not the gatekeepers of science but the spreaders of truth,we have no time for the role of gatekeeping,we laugh at gatekeepers and as noted numerous times now,we openly encourage ball lovers to start threads on their ball love if they so wish. We find it 'interesting' that they are not very proactive in this regard and seem to enjoy their pathway of negativity.

While further research needs to be done in regards to the Ice Wall,as a general rule we are not concerned about it melting. Global warming is an excellent way to increase taxes and for political debate amongst those unable to think for themselves. We do hold fears for our scientific teams as they try and learn more about the Ice Wall but we soldier on in the name of truth and true science.

Doesn't the 'official' flat Earth theory say that we're not stationary but moving upwards?

If you are talking about universal acceleration,yes. Many ball lover have trouble with this as they also believe in General Relativity while not understanding the FE Special Relativity.
At the FES myself and a number of colleagues are also researching the possibility of a repulsion force from a parallel world or universe. At the FES we understand we are not as scientifically advanced as a being as many ball lovers would believe. It's easy for the religion of fraudulent sciences to make out we are further advanced when they have the advantage of just making things up. NASA,LIGO,Larry Krauss and their Twitter accounts at this point say hi.

At the FES we are the Nick Caves and TISM of science while the religion of fraudulent science are your Milli Vanilli,Betty Boo types.

How do flat-heads account for the fact that water drains in opposite directions from one hemisphere to another?

Also.....Doesn't the spherical nature of the atom (The veritable stuff which comprises our universe) seem to fly in the face of a flatty-patty?

Surely the microcosm mirrors the macrocosm in nature....That whole protons/neutrons & electrons set-up, would appear to mirror the structure, nature & law-governed behavior that applies to our solar-system, on a global & cosmic scale.

When you start a sentence with the words "surely the..." I start thinking you're not convinced of your method.

Surely the Duritz can muster a better Quality rebuttal than that?

Are you sure about that?

Does it really?

Are you sure about that? Hmmm?

Yep....Absolutely Positive.

 

[NEGAN]

Yep....Absolutely Positive.

Yes, I am telling it's a myth about drains in southern and northern hemisphere, it's totally random. The Coriolis effect is too weak to effect drains.

If you said how do you explain hurricane winds ,then you may have a valid point. But even then different wind directions have both been observed in both hemispheres.

Your other 2 questions I don't get what you are asking?

Watch the vids before putting your foot in it amigo.

The other 2 questions pertain to the essential shape that all matter tends towards in nature.....I.E Spherical....Pretty obvious, I'd of thought.

I don't need too

It's already been debunked.

No, you really do.

OK give us a sec
Hard to sinq up

OK I have seen enough they repeated the experiment 3 times? Which is good. But this is where it ends.


They even say in the description it's good to be skeptical go buy a 10$ kiddie pool and do it yourself.

But Come on man I am pretty sure you are smart enough to know this is not valid proof. And how this is flawed.

It's not in a controlled environment for starters

There so many variables uncounted for

using a baby pool

The sink hole

the way they set it up is another

What valve did they use?Did they do it with turning the valve the opposite way?

They don't add the food colouring until after the water starts draining.

There is more but you get the point.

I could post something like this




But wouldn't call that proof either.

 

[Taylor]

It is measuring still water draining through a central hole. It is quite conclusive

 

[NEGAN]

So does majority of basins you use.

I won't say majority actually but a fair amount

 

[Taylor]

None that can measure like that, because I'd have to pull the plug and that will disturb it

 

[NEGAN]

This had a 25% chance of this experiment working out this way even though this isn't scientific and not taking into account they want to be youtube rockstars and they have no scientific qualifications that I can see.

But you are exactly right minimal things can change Coriolis effect because it's pretty weak.

 

[Taylor]

It is a reasonable experiment

 

[Duritz]

There's things in the way, obstructing your line of sight. Plus even if there was nothing in the way, our air (atmosphere) isn't clear, it has stuff in it.

Plus, it's a bloody long way away, even on a flat earth such as ours.

Everest doesn't exist.

It's a myth created to help control us by making us feel weak and underachieving.

'Think you accomplished something great today? Well that's nothing compared to climbing Mt Everest'...

Its just used to beat the spirit out of us and keep us feeling flat... like the Earth...

Please don't use snopes.
There is a picture that shows they own a cat, which clearly debunks any facts and/or evidence they use on their site.

 

[Procrastinator35]

It is a reasonable experiment

Indeed it is....And it's one which Flat-heads have trouble accounting for in their model.

Where no interference or contingent factors exist, water always cycles in opposite directions, when draining, dependent upon which hemisphere you are in.

Only an oscillating, spherical earth, can adequately account for this phenomena.
