Anyone here a flat earther? I would like to have a debate in which we don't call eachother stupid assholes. I want to hear some of your so called evidence on why the earth is flat and in turn I will try to disprove or give some evidence on why the earth is round.
>>679952327

>>679952327
Its flat, that simple. I do not need to prove a fact, its not an opinion, you fucking faggot
>>679952327
>>679952327
>noon shadows become longer the higher the latitude is
>the measured dimensions of the landmasses and oceans only fit on a sphere
>>679952327
When I look around, it is flat. What other evidence do I need?
>>679952625
Looks like someone doesn't understand physics and science.
>>679952327
the earth is flat because god made it that way huuuuuuurduuuuuuuuur
>>679952625
Haha

>>679952625
If earth is flat, where's the edge?
You can observe the curvature of the earth from a plane or any higher vehicle. Further, you can witness the effect of the curvature as buildings and ships' masts will appear to rise/sink against the horizon as your distance to them varies. Also, VHF/UHF FM radio. Radio waves travel on and on. The reason it has limited range is line of sight, as it does not penetrate ground well. If the world was flat you'd be able to communicate with anyone on FM regardless of location so long as you had an antenna of only moderate height. Look at your nearest TV/Radio tower and note the height, trust me, it's not just that tall for fun - it's that tall to gain range b/c the world is round pal.
A lot of flat earthers don't believe in Gravity. Do you also not believe in magnetism?
Illustration of Radio example. Real life on the left, flat world on the right. Sticks are radio towers, diagonal lines are radio signal propagation. On the right side I put a smaller antenna tower, that while not as tall as the first, it's antenna still reaches over the horizon to receive so the first tower's signal can be picked up - I also had it re-broadcast for fun.
>>679952327
I was a flat earther for like a weekend.
You have to work under the assumption that the moon landings were faked and that nasa is prepared to lie (which is something I still think to be true). Also, that the government is more than prepared to lie to the american public for reasons (which again, I don't disagree with).
With that said, the evidence to support a flat earth is interesting to say the least - my favorite being that you can see further using a telescope than what the curvature of the earth would allow- or that in an airplane, the horizon line is not lower, but instead stays at eye-level.
With that said, this was the video that really shook me up and proved to me 100% that it is all a psyop or some kind of massive trolling.

If you have half a brain cell and watch the whole thing, you can easily see the cracks in the argument and the rhetoric used by people actively trying to manipulate you.
sorry op, I am not able to argue against you, but I hope that it is of interest.
tl;dr Flat earth is surprisingly coherent as a theory, but the more you look into it, the more you can see that there is something fishy going on and that they are intentionally misleading.

Fuck. FUCK THIS BAIT
>>679954435
But you can't prove the pythagorean theorem true.
Or it wouldn't be stuck as a theory for 400 years.
Most rational people do not accept theories as fact.
>>679952958

>>679953052

Don't forget the fish eye lens effect that ABSOLUTELY is seen from the plane window.
Fish eye lenses and round earth theories go hand in hand.
>>679955240
Yeah stupid flat earthers think fish eye lenses distort the picture.
Fucking idiots.
>>679954342
do you even math?
>>679954342
>>679954643
I don't think you know the difference between a theory and a theorem. And there is a square root of 5 it's just an irrational number. Do you not believe in irrational numbers? So pi isn't a thing right? The amount of times the diameter can go into the circumference is exactly three right? Not 3.14159265358979.... And "just a theory" oh man. "Rational people don't accept theories as fact" Actually yes, yes they do.
>>679953471
Anyone watch this yet... I am rewatching it and I am getting such an angry boner.
>>679952452
>I do not need to prove a fact
>>679955616
I guess not, Google literally had the wrong square root up a couple of days ago when I checked, my bad i have to break it another way I see.
>>679955839
There is no difference. You can't fucking prove this theorem and that's the end of it.
You will win a Nobel prize if you do, and it will be changed to "the pythagorean calculation/formula."
Feeling brave? Go win your trophy nigger.
>>679956544
>Go win your trophy nigger.
/thread
>>679952570
Mathematical planes are infinite and they are flat. Space is just a plane
>>679956544
Pick up a dictionary there is a difference. And no it would be the opposite. If you were to prove it wrong then you'd probably win the Nobel prize. So go ahead prove it wrong.
>>679956544
Hey guess what, I remember back in 3rd form when I measured a triangle and got exactly the same result as I calculated with Pythagoras' theorem. It seems I've proved it.
I don't blame you for not understanding anything, you're probably the result of Common Core in America.
>>679957214
>the process of proving a theorem correct is called proof
So you're saying that this is still a theorem and yet it's been proved?
It hasn't dude. It simply hasn't and we're talking four hundred years and there is no proof.
Proof or it didn't happen.
Don't forget it's the masons that started the round earth nonsense.
Globe makers were masons and would obviously lose shit tons of money if sheeple knew the truth so they made up a pack of lies.
>>679955050
So jet fuel can't prove round earth?
>>679957714
Your argument is invalid. It wouldn't be a theorem if it didn't have proof. It would be a hypothesis or an idea. Theories and theorems are called so because they have proof supporting them and nothing negating them as of yet. That is what the word pretty much means. It is a truth established by a means of accepted truths. The only reason it isn't a law is because it isn't self evident
>>679957898
So why didn't Mason's start making flat earth maps instead of globes?
>>679957607
How do you account for the fact that the theorem was meant for triangles, but the earth is round?
This makes one side of the triangle curved, and thus the theory shouldn't be applied to it. Seriously. The curved side can be measured (b squared) but this shortens the overall length of a squared (which can't be measured accurately anyways, it is the fucking sky) and the whole calculation is fucked.
>>679953471
Do you actually think American people were the first/ only ones to discover the Earth is a sphere?
gravity isn't real. the concept of gravity says that every object with mass attracts other objects with mass. well, i'm an object with a lot of mass and i certainly can't attract any women, which means gravity is fake. simple truth
>>679958295
Because the globe makers would be out of a job
>>679958435
i think american people are all spherical
>>679958435
In fact, I know that they were not the first, not by a long shot.
>>679958504
Yeah any sane person knows the reason we don't float off into space is because the flat earth is travelling upwards through space at exactly the right speed to keep our feet on the ground.
You CAN NOT have a curved side of the triangle in this equation. It only works on 3 sided triangles with FLAT SIDES.
It simply wasn't accounting for the extra length on side a which distends the entire calculation.
>>679958758
>>679958543
Not if they started making flat earth maps instead. Easy fix to their nonexistent problem
>>679952327
>thinks he can discuss rationally with someone who believes something so obviously false
woah kid, youre gonna have a hard time in real life

Why do that when they could take hundreds of years and trillions of dollar to cover up the truth?
>>679954711

Am I missing something? what does Pythagoras' theorem have to do with the shape of the Earth?

Why cover up the "truth" when they could take hundreds of year and trillions of dollars making "real" flat earth maps? Seriously no real argument here.
>>679958435
A Grecian scientist actually measured the Earth using the shadows of two different wells. He was astonishingly close.
>>679959168
The shit was invented to explain ships disappearing on the horizon when some fucking regard decided it was round.
It was used to calculate the drop after one mile which is supposedly 11? feet (roundies don't like to hear this shit) which is observably false. You would be looking straight ahead of you out into space because 1 mile in front of you the earth has dropped off 11 feet (presuming no mountains)
>>679959785
Where's the retweet button when you need it?
If any Flat-earthers took a rocket to low earth orbit, would they commit suicide or denounce their own observations in their delusional madness?
>>679959552
You got any citation for that?
>>679959552
SORRY the calculation actually states that the earth drops by 7467 feet every mile you travel forward.
I don't fucking need to explain to you guys why this is wrong. Calculate it yourself to see why so many people disagree with Pythagoras.
Assuming that you discount actual pictures of the fucking planet being a sphere as taken from space telescopes, satellites and astronauts then it is still a fucking stupid theory.
IF, the earth was flat, there'd be an edge and history would be replete with pictures of the edge, and what is over the edge. There would be stories of ships that went over, documented missions to find what is over the edge and underneath the planet. There would be a million photos from people who have flown over and around the edge.
We would have no oceans because all of the water would have drained away..
There is no logical reason for anyone to cover up the truth that Earth is flat, what possible reason is there from keeping up the lie that the Earth is round?
Also, how do you keep this a secret for so long? Once more than 1 person knows a secret it is virtually impossible to keep it that way. Were the earth to be actually flat then the amount of people required to keep the secret would be millions, all the world leaders, scientists, astronauts, airline pilots, people living near the edges. With thousands/millions in on the secret it would be impossible to maintain.

Here ya go food.
The earth apparently drops off 1.5 miles per mile you travel forward.
Explain? Well you can't really.
>ITT: trolls trolling trolls and newfags getting baited hard
Can a flat earther please explain how mountains work?

Shit sucks, yo. Weather patterns are getting more extreme. We need to pare down vehicle emissions and livestock farming. If we work making fish farms more efficient and economical then the price would reduce and allow it to compete with terrestrial livestock.

It drops about 8 inches per mile.
>>679960457
>The Earth is round
Yeah, NASA shows us cgi photoshopped pics of a ROUND earth so its round.

>>679960702
Do the calculation yourself please anon.
I don't like when people fail to try things out before they state that they work.
The real calculation, as dictated by the pythagorean theorem, clearly states that the earth drops 7647 feet per mile.
>>679961034
Maybe you should try it yourself it's 7.8inches per mile.
>>679961034
Do you even math? It's about an 8 inch drop every mile

i never mentioned that the earth is flat. tbh i dont know if we live on a ball earth or flat one. Is it wrong for one to question things?

>>679961608
Oh no no no that's bullshit.
This guy clearly can't show his work.
I used the actual theorem and the actual measurement of 5280 feet to determine the drop.
He used 1 mile and the circumference or pi or some shit.
Try this.
A = 5280 feet
B = 5280 feet
Tell me what you get because it's 7647 feet.
>>679962182

If the Earth is flat how is it possible to sail from California and end up in Japan.

Wat. Hold on I think you just broke me.
Thanks actually for saying this brb an hero.
>>679952843
dude
>>679962392
>>679962495
Except C can't be 1 mile,the equation won't work as the Earth curves downward.
I am a flat earther bro. I know it's flat.
It's very obvious once you learn about it.
>the edge of the earth
>>679962392
But c is the undetermined length in the calculation.
However, in reality, we already know the distance of the surface. That's the starting point of the equation.
C should actually be the DROP distance.
It's true.
We're trying to learn c, that's why it's c.
>>679962484
Pretty much this... all these faggots wasting time with retarded calculations trying to figure out the curvature of the Earth. If the Earth is flat how is possible to sail ACROSS the world? Riddle me that.
>>679962771
Niet. C is always the hypotenuse. We're trying to find A, which is the drop.
>>679952452
Good for you that you decided to follow this retarded trend OP! With niggers, muslims and gypsos wanting all equal rigths and to have their stupid opinions heard , this is an easy and elegant way to separate the wheat from the chaff.
So good for you that you went through the trouble to separate yourself.
>>679962182
Okay let's assume the Earth is a sphere (which it is) and the measurements for it being a sphere at correct (which they are). The radius of the earth is roughly 3,965 miles. And you are going 1 mile in any direction. So that is your A and your B. The drop of earth is what you get for C minus A. In other words C-A= drop for every mile. So let's do the math. (3965^2) + (1^2) = C^2. 15,721,225 + 1 = C^2. 15,721,226= C^2. C= 3,965.0001261034. (C) - 3,965= 0.0001261034 miles. There are 63,360 inches in a mile so (C-A)*63,360= 7.99 inches . And there you go although I didn't have exact numbers I still got a number around 8 inches for every mile.
>>679962484
The fuck are you talking about, dumbass?
Did you see the picture of the earth in fucking OP dumbass? That's what the earth looks like, you asshat.
If anyone truly belives the Earth is flat (which is unlikely outside of heavy mental ilness) I have some projects for you.
Build a weather balloon and get pictures of it yourself, hundreds if not thosands of people have done it as its cheap and easy

You now have the power to see for your self if it's flat or round, but if you choose to not see for your self and ignore I ever sugested these 2 VERY easy options that's up to you but if you do avoid seeing for your self with your own eyes you need to ask your self what are you afraid of?

>>679963825
Just google "satellite in space".
There are no pics. Really makes you question if it's actually real, you can't deny that.
I would assume the footage you saw is cgi, just like all the pictures of the sphere earth which isn't true. (The earth is flat)
The pictures are all made by a computer.
>>679963282
You're using the circumference, an unrelated number that can't fucking exist until you finish the pythagorean theorem to determine the drop.
You aren't allowed to prestate the circumference because we don't know this until we calculate the drop.
I'm sorry I just don't understand where my points aren't valid: you're using the circumference.. In order to calculate the drop and then get the circumference..
Please don't bother with me but this sounds like shit.

QUESTION!
How do flat Earthers cope with space tourism?
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_tourism
At last check there are dozens of private space tourists companies that are going to start sending tourists into space as early as 2018.
Soooooo yeah.
You can already buy tickets with Virgin Galactic and a few others...
>>679964127
I'm not the one using the circumference of the earth to calculate the circumference of the earth to be honest.
>>679963553
Is it?
Build a balloon and prove me wrong.
>>679964090
Where did I use circumference? The only thing I mentioned was radius. Never once did I measure circumference.
>>679960499
a²+b²=c², where c is the hypotenuse. Theerefore the hypotenuse is always greater length than either of toe other 2 sides, unless the length of 1 side is 0.
Therefore the calculation you are looking for is b=√ (c²-a²)
=√ (27,878,400-27,878,400)
=0 feet
But you forgot to factor in curvature of the earth so your calculation would actually result in a complex number (because of square rooting a negative number).
Go search Pythagoras on Wikipedia dumbass.

You have to use the circumference to calculate the radius, sorry I misspoke, but using the number you're trying to calculate (unknown) to calculate the number you're trying to figure out (same unknown) makes no sense.
>>679952327
All you need to know that the planet isn't flat is this:
1: Anyone can purchase an airplane
2: Anyone can purchase a camera
3: Someone would have found the edge of the planet and taken a picture of it.
4: Virtually all telecommunications wouldn't work, as flat earthers believe that there are no satellites, despite some of them being observable with the naked eye, including the ISS.

If the Earth were a disc, it would collapse into a sphere
Notice how all planets are spheres except Earth apparently
>>679964614
I did say let's assume that the measurements are correct. The internet gave me the radius. I'm not calculating circumference, I'm calculating drop for every mile you travel. Which is what we are discussing. You cannot calculate the decline of a circle without pre given measurements. It's impossible. That's why I assume it's correct so that I can arrive at a conclusion. I had nothing to do with calculating circumference or radius of the earth. Those are given numbers
>>679965467
but in the flat earth model, the sun and moon rotate in unison with each other. wheras in the spherical earth model, we rotate around the sun.
how can an eclipse happen in the flat earth model if the sun and moon are moving around the earth in unison with each other in this manner?

The moon would not have phases in this model...

>I don't fucking need to explain
In other words: I can't.
>>679966281
How come the hundreds of people who sent weather balloons up from their own backyard have seen a curved Earth and how come space tourism exists?
Also remember crossing the Atlantic one way can take hours longer than it does going the other way depending on the Jetstream.
>>679965303
The Jews! If people think the earth is flat they will have to buy new world globes.. and guess who invested heavily into the globe factories before putting these lies into the media?
The Jews. It's all in front of us, you just have to open your eyes. WAKE UP SHEEPLE!

Same height WITHOUT FISH EYE LENS.
Huge note: Felix baumgartener was wearing a fish eye lens. Review his video.
>>679966524
Dipshit, I'm asking OP based on the flat-earth map he provided. If he actually thinks that's an acurate representation of the Earth, than flight times wouldn't make any sense...
my only question is why someone would hide from us that the earth is flat
>>679965303
>Who profits from making us believe the Earth is round?
>round
Oh sorry, I've read it wrong >>679966543
Will have to buy new glasses
>>679966543
These kind of shit posts actually make me believe in the jew conspiracy even more. Why would anyone not guilty spread this kind of misinformation...
>>679966557
The Earth in that picture is curved tho...
Also space tourism bra, flay earth theory can't survive space tourism.
How much money can there be in globemaking realy?
>>679966557
>post picture of a curved Earth as proof the Earth is not curved
Well done anon 10/10
>>679966761
Now that they offer free ones you can download print and assemble your self not much.
>>679966281
It is because the map you are reading is the projection of a sphere onto a piece of paper. You should use a string on the globe to get a better comparison of distance. Moreover, as someone said, flight time is also depending on the jet stream.
The edge of this piece of paper is round.
If I told you this unironically, would you believe me?
The artist says he sent this empty chair up on a balloon as an art project.
But what if there was someone in the chair and he fell off so he's just covering his tracks?
*X files theme*
>>679966193
Except it doesn't disprove it. Earth is not a perfect sphere. Some places are incredibly flat and some places have steeper curves. That is why you can't really disprove it unless you're on an ocean that has very little movement
>>679956729
Space is a volume
>>679967018
Balloons are crushed around 120,000 feet.
These pictures are obviously illigetimate.
You can't get a balloon this high.
>>679965474
Lol
>>679967082
You can prove the Earth is flat as anyone with $50 can launch a weather Ballon and see its round for them selfs as lots of people already have.
>>679966915
You don't understand my question.
If OP's assumption that the Earth is flat and the map that the map he provided is accurate, why would it take 10 hours to fly from Chicago to Moscow, and only take 14 hours to fly from Santiago to Sydney when it's clearly over 10x the distance ON HIS MAP.
>>679967082
>earth is not a sphere
>uses spherical geometry to calculate circumference
>doesn't realize that the pythagorean theorem breaks and is not applicable if the earth is not perfectly round
Any bases I didn't cover?
The plot holes keep coming.
Hopefully we got you to think.
>>679967198
Do it your self and see
Hundreds of people already have
Also they don't crush they pop anon
>>679967284
>You can prove the Earth is flat as anyone with $50 can launch a weather Ballon and see its round for them selfs as lots of people already have.
>Posts picture where a curve can be clearly seen
>>679967198
Only one way you can prove it
http://m.instructables.com/id/How-to-Construct-a-Weather-Balloon/
Do it and get back to me on your findings.
>>679967402
It's probably one person.
>>679963690
Difficult to get to or see with geostationary orbit at 38000km.
>>679967518
Fuck I ment you can prove it's not flat
I hate my phone and typing skills.
>>679967554
Lol grasping at straws are we?
Here do it your self

Yeah I can see you beliving in magic.
>>679966193
>not understanding atmospheric refraction
>>679967554

Oh lord my sides!
>>679967849
Yeah because lasers are known to curve.
TFW this guy literally believes that a beam of light can curve in midair under 5 miles distance.
>>679968003
and it always refracts in a way that makes the Earth look curved like a sphere... amazing the level of conspiracy theory you have to be immersed in to come up with this shit
cocks
>>679952327
so here's a question for you flatties, How come at the equator you pretty much get 12 hours day and 12 hours night all year round, but the further towards the north or south pole you get you either gain or lose hours of daytime depending on the season? As a matter of fact how do seasons even exist?
>>679968200
>light travels 299.8 million miles squared per second
>this guy thinks a beam of light can bend 40 inches over 5 miles
>>679968386
why are you a faggot?
If the earth is flat then why does my nose touch the wall before my dick? Checkmate atheists
>me
>>679968495
Because I like dick, but that's beside the point.
I take it you have no answer to my question then
>>679968619
Are you maybe Jewish?
>>679968382
Not bad/10
>>679964064
so what really is GPS and how does it work ?
>>679969024
I have one. Yin and yang.
You should be able to find this explanation on YouTube, it blew my mind how it actually made sense.
>>679969300
Checkmate
>>679966193
>not using the SI units
> not researching about the equinox and axial precession
> muh conspiracy
i just started the video and i can point out how bad they are about even trying to disprove facts
start from correcting your basics first
>>679969456
OK I looked it up but that would suggest that at the "north pole" (the center) and "South pole" ( the edge) would experience regular day and night cycle like the rest of the world, and in fact the "north pole" would experience a year'round 12 hour day, whereas in reality the poles experience no exposure to the sun for 6 months, then no shade from the sun for 6 months. so your explanation doesn't work.
>>679963313
Maybe you didn't notice, but in the OP pic you would have had to sail in a curve to get from California to Japan, when in reality you can sail mostly in a straight line and get there. Now who's a dumbass?
>>679969174
underrated shekel
>>679952327
Yesterday I read that Boko Haram, an Islamic Terror Group, is claiming that the earth is flat. Now this...
>>679970416
Hey it wasn't my explanation man just trying to give you an idea of the current theory.
This is a work in progress.
Sitting here watching Tom cruise's Scientology video.
>>679954643
Are you fucking retarded? How the fuck have you never seen a proof for the Pythagorean theorem. Do you think algabra and geometry are lies made up by the government or something you dumb fuck
That image does show you how truly isolated the entire pacific ocean is
It's like half of the Earth is all the continents, with Indian/Atlantic oceans, and the other half if the Pacific Ocean
Flat earth theory is retardation at its worst
>>679973810
That just don't make no sense. gee heck
>>679973810
Light refraction
>>679974557
You mean atmospheric refraction? at least get the terms right if you're attempting to get your crazy belief across. Atmospheric refraction proves globular earth moron.
>>679974808
Thank you Mr. Globby
>>679973362
but it's an inherently broken theory, any more development is just people pulling shit out of their ass.
>You can see the curve of the Earth on salt flats >nobody has sailed off the edge of the planet , >southern and northern hemisphere have different seasons
> magnetised poles
Look through a telescope, the moon is round, sun is round, saturn is round EVERY other planet and star is round or sphere like.. Unless every single one of them is flat and just so happen to be facing towards us but even that doesn't make sense.
Use a gas balloon with a camera attatched to it, send it up, review footage, see round earth. Simple
Stupid assholes.
>>679952843
Haha
>>679962010
So you believe in gravity just not the part when it says that an object with the mass of earth would be crushed into a ball eventually If it had the shape of a disc? Please don't say yes I don't want to lose ALL my faith in humanity.
