Please present the evidence. A telescope will show the movement of the heavenly bodies, not the movement of the earth.


Have you carried out this experiment? If so please evidence and detail your findings. What did it demonstrate?


Cheers

You are ignorant and you keep arguing, a radiotelescope can actually help ascertain how the earth moves. Without proper calculation of how the earth spins, you cant use a radiotelescope.... it wont work


i have tried the experiment and it proves that the earth rotates, maybe you can try it. If you need some help, i will be glad to help you.

If you have a spectroscopy that can measure red shift in respect to motion, you will ascertain how galaxies move.

you cant sit in your room and make conclusions, people are out there working hard to make things work for you and I. Get this equipment and do the work yourself
Why not share your empirical evidence. Detail what you set out to demonstrate and the outcome. Any presumptions or control factors. Shouldn't be too difficult. In language that is not too technical please.

As above, please share. What exactly you did, the assumptions, and the evidence that it demonstrates what you claim it does, as opposed to what you set out to prove. How fast and at what angle is this rotation that you personally evidenced?

Everything you need to know about it is online. I really think is stressful trying to elucidate a scientific experiment to someone who doesnt have prior science knowledge. If you dont understand how radiotelescopy works then i can no longer have a scientific conversation with you.

You problem is that you dont know science

So, you have run these experiments and, without any presuppositions or an agenda, and conclusively demonstrated that the earth moves on its axis at 1'000mph. Surely that is distillable in non-technical jargon for the non-scientific such as myself? Otherwise to believe your claims is no different to the approach I take with the bible, by faith.

Why should I swap faith in one for the other just because you claim to conducted an experiment which proves your claims but yet are unable to outline it? It is clear that the sun, moon and stars that move, do so around the earth

1 Timothy 6:4
O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called:

Maybe the problem is that you believe you have knowledge and understanding, but you don't know God grin

TV01:
Your subjective pronouncement on my mental condition - which I totally reject by the way - is no evidence of the earths motion or shape. Or is it? cheesy

Do you have any evidence for motion? Are you able to prove your belief that the earth is rotating at 1'000mph, orbiting at 67'000mph, with a galaxy moving at over 500'000mph, which is in turn moving through the universe at near 1'2million mph? Anything we can discern? Anything you can empirically demonstrate. Can you provide a scientific (observable, testable, repeatable, falsifiable) methodology for your measurements. Or is it blind faith grin

What about the shape? Show us the curvature or water curving. Show us something observable for the claimed spherical shape or evidence, or an experiment.

Make the earth move for me bro' cheesy

Daniel 4:11
The tree grew and became strong, and its top reached to heaven, and it was visible to the end of the whole earth. (the whole of a globe earth cannot see a tree no matter how high it grows)

Isaiah 38:8
Behold, I will make the shadow cast by the declining sun on the dial of Ahaz turn back ten steps.” So the sun turned back on the dial the ten steps by which it had declined. (the sun moves, not the earth - its, small, local and acts like a spotlight, covering no more than half the earth at any one time/point)

Matthew 4:8
Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. (one cannot see the whole of a globe no matter how high one ascends)

TV01:

Your assumptions as to how what we experience, or observe, fits with what you believe, is not proof, just opinion. However, I'll take the first few;

Day & Night - we see the sun move which it does, orbiting the earth. It is small, local and lights up part of the earth at any one point/time. Hence day and night on a flat stationary earth.

Coriolis effect - has been observed to go either way in either hemisphere

Footage from the ISS - please show it to us

Orbiting satellites - orbiting what? where? (at what altitude) show us examples.

Do you have any evidence for motion? Are you able to prove your belief that the earth is rotating at 1'000mph, orbiting at 67'000mph, with a galaxy moving at over 500'000mph, which is in turn moving through the universe at near 1'2million mph?

nwabekeyi:
these are not observations and assumption, they are proven facts and it is so whether you accept it or not.

ICT will not work without orbiting satellites and a spinning earth.

Coriolis effects cannot work in a stationery earth, you need read about how it works as only spinning object posses coriolis effect (read up)

Life on a stationery earth is impossible as electromagnetic field will not be generated and will all die from solar wind.

As a matter of facts, nothing in the universe is stationery, little read up will help you understand how it works. There is no need denying something because we are ignorant about how it works.



At the stage of civilization, we should not be educating learned people on this subject matter, with your telescope you can see the International space station in the night sky orbiting the earth. Let's dont sound ridiculous because we want to argue...

1 Corinthians 1:18-31 [ Christ the Power and Wisdom of God ] For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.

am beginning to believe in this flat earth thing ohh.
there was a video I watched on YouTube which actually show that the sun is local. I was thought in school that the sun is soo big it can contain a1000 earth sized matter, but I now know this is pure lie.



https://m.youtube.com/results?search_query=Plane+flies+through+the+sun

from the video above u can see that the sun is small and local, not 93 million miles away nor a1000times bigger than the earth.

I also do not believe in the Apollo moon landing that one is clearly faked I don't think the moon is a place one can land on. something is going on which many are not aware of, our education system is a disinformation system. many think anything labelled science is authentic when man is fallible and science itself very faulty. e.g carbon daring

Persist in seeking truth bro'...you can't go wrong.

The sun and the moon are both local and in some ways act like the hands on a cosmic clock - giving rise to night and day and the seasons. They are both luminaries, created by The Most High to provide light to the earth.

The sun is not 93,000,000 million miles away or over 1.25 million times the size of the earth. Indeed the sun and moon are similar sizes and distances away. They are both within the firmament of the heaven, as are the stars.

Job 28:24 For he looks to the ends of the earth and sees everything under the heavens. (flat!)

Also, how would lunar eclipses occur on a flat earth?

At all - I just cross-reference against the bible, then look closely at things that contradict it.

ISS - situation faked, output fabricated. As were the Moon landings, China's claim to land on the dark side of the moon and most "Space Agency" output.

Lunar eclipse on a flat earth. Not totally clear, but both sun and moon have been sighted at the same time as the lunar eclipse - something like 50 times over the last 500 years. Some posit that it could be other heavenly bodies that we are unaware of. There are 2 named in ancient Indian mythology, Ketu and Rahu I believe.

Back to the topic, as a believer of Christ, I believe the earth is flat. I did a personal research, came to this conclusion, and have the full backing of the Bible.

First link is just reaching. Who was taking records of eclipses over hundreds of years? Eclipses do not have a fixed pattern of occurrence in a particular place. This is conspiracy nonsense. A lot of the eclipses are not even noticeable so how would you be able to consistently record?


Second link: NASA has a website. It's an organization with thousands of employees scattered around the planet and beyond. Why would they cover up something like that? Can you think of a motive. The Van Allen belt is dangerous but is bypassed by travelling through regions of low radiation.

Your statement about search engine suppression is hilarious. That's the problem with conspiracy theories; they give rise to more.

the rising and setting of d sun is a literary expression describing what seems to be obvious. The seven days of creation for example shud not be taken literally. The soil we cultivate are product of disintegration of igneous and met morph rocks and takes millions of years to accomplish. The earth is one of d several planets that orbit the sun. It is strategically set at a precise distance from d sun, such that some fractions closer to d sun, we are heading for a melt down, and some fraction farther, we may be heading for another ice age. Kudos to the creator who dis so in his infinite wisdom. Embrace ur bible, also do some free minded research. U hv been empowered to do so by the creator. Cheers
