Our Planet Earth is a sphere, a 3 dimensional globe. please stop this flat earth nonsense
To all FLAT EARTH believers: I ask you to please take the time and email me with the following information. I am doing an independent study and working with people to evaluate the social, economic, educational background and psychological profile of flat earth believers. Would you please email me: vietrandy@gmail.com with the following information: Please tell me in all honesty your highest level of education. Please be honest. Also, when you were in school did you struggle with math and science? If I may ask, what grades did you get in math and science? I would be especially interested to know if you were bullied at school and picked on by students and even teachers for your academic performance. I am compiling a study of flat earthers and it's really disturbing to see a trend here where recently I had a long talk with a flat earther as part of my study, and I found he struggled in school and was marginalized and left behind when in reality he should have been in remedial training. I am not being caustic, but I really need to compile this information to help you and others like you. Biblically speaking, Paul called you and your kind feeble minded, ever learning but never coming to knowledge. I also understand there is not only learning disabilities at work here, but a spiritual cloud over the eyes of your and your kind. I pray your eyes be opened to God's creation and not fall into your ignorance. Looking forward to your email. thank you.Read more
navigation - Marine charts | Britannica
great circle route, the shortest course between two points on the surface of a sphere. It lies in a plane that intersects the sphere’s centre and was known by mathematicians before the time of Columbus. Until the 19th century ships generally sailed along rhumb lines, which made use of prevailing winds and fixed compass headings.
Great circle routes are usually plotted on charts based on the gnomonic projection, on which great circles appear as straight lines.
Outstanding Link explaining with visual 3-Dimensional imagesA gnomonic map projection is a map projection which displays all great circles as straight lines, resulting in any straight line segment on a gnomonic map showing a geodesic, the shortest route between the segment's two endpoints. This is achieved by casting surface points of the sphere onto a tangent plane, each landing where a ray from the center of the sphere passes through the point on the surface and then on to the plane. No distortion occurs at the tangent point, but distortion increases rapidly away from it. Less than half of the sphere can be projected onto a finite map.[1] Consequently, a rectilinear photographic lens, which is based on the gnomonic principle, cannot image more than 180 degrees.

Job 26:7
“He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing.”
King James Version (KJV)
Why don’t the Flat earthers ever show us the edge of the world?
How does the US Navy conduct CIRCUMNAVIGATION DEPLOYMENTS that are documented by Ship’s History and the Commanding Officer’s official Log that show EAST routes or WEST routes back to their original destination?
These deployments literally go AROUND THE GLOBE and are documented by navigational course headings that would be impossible for anything other than a globe to reconstruct. I have a few images you can google for yourself and ask for the FOIA and see the course headings.
For example I took the first submerged global transit of the USS TRITON which was on a WEST ROUTE and the USS Carl Vinson’s world cruise of 1983 which took a EAST ROUTE.
For those who do not understand navigation a flat earther might think circumnavigate means sailing around in a circle on a two dimensional plane. This would be impossible if you match the course headings of a circle on a 2 dimensional plane as compared to the “ACTUAL” course headings required for a global circumnavigation.
the word navigate literally means Navigation is derived from the Latin navis (“ship”) and agere (“to drive”). Circum means CIRCUM: PREFIX: circum-, a prefix with the meaning "round about, around,'' found in Latin loanwords, esp. derivatives of verbs that had the general senses "to encompass or surround'' (circumference; circumjacent; circumstance) or "to go around'' by the means or in the manner specified by the verb (circumnavigate;
Cir·cum·nav·i·gate
[ˌsərkəmˈnavəɡāt]
VERB
sail or travel all the way around (something, especially the world):
"he undertook to circumnavigate the globe in 80 days or less"
synonyms:
go around · walk around · travel around · orbit · revolve around · circumambulate

All welcome to come and join our CELESTIAL NAVIGATION CLASS in 3 Parts. My favorite class in the Navy's OCS class. Warning: FLAT EARTHERS have a 100 % failure rate in this course since it is impossible for them to do these calculations based on their "THEORY". 2nd Warning: Never ever get on an airplane or a sea going ship with a Pilot or Captain who believes in FLAT EARTH.
Now the Flat Earth folks are going to have to include the Country of India on the conspiracy list. India moon landing chandrayaan-3 photos of earth from lunar orbit Looks like the Indians have developed awesome photoshopping of their south polar moon landing to see the southern hemisphere of earth. LOOKS LIKE THE EARTH IS A BALL. Hmmm.Read more

Planet aligning in June, first in nearly 1,000 years. 4 planets Saturn, Jupiter, Venus, and Mars. Why can Australia see the 5 visible planets in a VERTICAL alignment whereas the Northern Hemisphere is at a low angle??? This would be impossible from a flat planed earth, but only on a SPHERE. Why it's been almost 1,000 years? Planets, all planets - including planet earth, are in orbits, moving at different speeds throughout the SOLAR SYSTEM.

Thank you, Brother Andrew, for all of the evidence against flat-earth nonsense! Rather than focusing on Biblical imagery (not meant to be taken literally) like the four corners in Revelation 20:8, let's look at images like the first one in this article: https://www.travelandleisure.com/photography/best-earth-photos-from-international-space-station-2020. If that doesn't convince a flat-earther, I don't know what will!
ReplyDeleteAmen! To go around this Flat Earthers do not believe NASA has actually taken any photographs but have faked all their space photos.
DeleteI did some more research on a few more scriptures FLATEARTHERS USE:
The FLAT EARTHERS love Isaiah 40:22 because of course they take it literally and use modern Bible translations instead of the King James Bible which reads: "It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in."
The King James Bible proves you are correct in that it is an allegory in that God does not literally sit on earth, but rather is sitting down on His throne at the apex of the pyramid of the Universe. See why North is so important to God's perspective in SIDES OF THE NORTH any why this is a Pyramid shape Psalm 48:2 and Isaiah 14:13 looking straight down from the northern perspective to south over the north pole of the earth you'd see all planetary bodies* in 2 dimensional circle. * Bodies are 3 dimensional 1 Corinthians 15:40.
But back to Isaiah 40:22. I even took a beach ball and placed it between my feet and looked straight down and I could clearly see a 2 dimensional circle when looking "directly overhead" down through the north pole axis of the ball. However, when focusing on the word "circle" we see in context Isaiah 40:22 is referring to the ORBIT of the earth around the Sun which when looking "from overhead downward" is a circle called an "ellipse." We prove this by looking closely at the Grammar here: CIRCLE OF the EARTH. We see Circle is used as a concrete noun here followed by the preposition OF with the earth. This means that The Earth is NOT a circle but rather the earth is part of, a constituent, component of THE CIRCLE; i.e., ORBIT, - is in that circle - circular orbit of this ellipse.
Or recently I heard 80 scriptures, they either use a modern perverted bible translation and or squeeze their own interpretation and not allow scripture to interpret scripture. The other glaring error is they do not understand grammar or basic logic such as relative motion. For example their claim that God stopped the Sun literally means the relative motion of the sun's transit across the earth as noted on a Sundial (the first method of marking time) is stopped. Joshua 10:13 - The Sun Stood Still = Relative Motion to Earth. The relative motion of the earth's rotation is held. Modern science says slowing the rotation of the earth would cause cataclysmic events such as tsunamis and the loss of the magnetic field. However, God would have of course controlled these forces for the duration of the event described in Joshua 10:13.
Yes, I have heard that belief as well about NASA; Capricorn One, anyone?! (A fun movie, but I'm sure flat-earthers point to it as "evidence" of how such a thing could happen.) Thank you for your evidence, particularly the orbit!
DeleteI think flat-earthers would have to prove their theory by getting to the "edge" of the Earth, but I'm sure they rationalize that away somehow.
Yes, it's amazing how they can rationalize never reaching the end of their flat earth that goes into infinity, yet when I show them solid Navy Navigation of a curve (to travel on a globe 3-dimensional body) instead of a straight line (to travel on a 2-dimensional shape) of a course laid out on a cardinal heading, they blindly refute it. Their blind and willful negligence of the proven concept of circumnavigation is beyond belief.
DeleteI guessed they would nonsensically say that the flat earth is infinite; that makes sense in terms of space-time curvature, but not the Earth. And circumnavigation is the perfect word for what you're describing in terms of irrefutable evidence of Earth's curvature.
DeleteThe Capricorn One Movie is a good point. Even IF the 1969 Moon Landing was a hoax this still doesn't deny other facts I detail in the Blog. Here is a good link that debunks all the major conspiracy theory on the moon landing. https://www.history.com/news/moon-landing-fake-conspiracy-theories . If pressed, I always have to contend that it would have been impossible to keep over 40,000 scientists and lab workers silent if in fact this entire thing was a hoax. Conspiracy theories like 911 are much easier to believe than the moon landing because there exists solid scientific proof the 911 conspiracy was real. I realize this is another subject, but wanted to include as a conspiracy theory that is more plausible than the moon landing hoax.
DeleteThe idea of infinity makes sense in terms of space-time curvature, but is nonsensical in terms of the supposedly flat Earth. Also, the term you used, circumnavigation, is the perfect word to describe the irrefutable curvature of the Earth from the standpoint of naval navigation. Finally, in terms of the moon landing, as you say, it would have been impossible to keep tens of thousands of people silent if it were a hoax; it reminds me of one of the strongest points of evidence for Jesus' resurrection, which I'm sure Christian flat-earthers would not deny!
DeleteAMEN!
