A. A laser light travels a straight line and is bound to run into obstacles from New Jersey to Westminster. The Earths surface is bumpy with hills, valleys, mountains and mountains under the oceans causing some levels of ocean to be higher and deeper than others.

B. The wind changes direction often due to wind currents caused by a number of things. Oya Queen of winds is unpredictable.

C. The Earth has 88 constellations surrounding it 360 degrees there is no way your eye ball is going to see constellations beyond its range.


Wake up out your slumber

Your judgment is based on religion. I'm not going to try to change your religious mindset. I'm actually not an atheist, and I don't try to force the bible to be a "flat earth book". If you believe earth is flat based on religion, then I have no business trying to convince you otherwise.
Also, underwater mountains won't make bulges on the ocean. The water will just level out. If you put your hand in a bucket of water will the water form a bulge where your hand is?

Where is the ocean level at?

I'm been to the most coldest sea on Earth called the Bering Sea as far North as you can go, and the water is always changing levels and heights due to waves.


You are not in any danger of changing my religion.

I'm showing you anthropological evidence that primordial Africans who were bigger in brain capacity depicted the Earth with a dome over it and flat with bumbs.These bumbs are interpreted by the uneveniness exhibited in the way Geb, signifying Earth or Ogun, is lying underneath the domed stretched Nut. The first time I investigated flat Earth I immediately related to the Egyptians who are primordial Africans view of the Earth. Whites came from hominids and this can be seen in the skulls of their primordial ancestors who were Neanderthal Cro Magnums. Africans or original peoples of the Earth came from Orishas. Mixing with these animals changed our primordial DNA and bloodline. This made us shorter, lose our elongated skulls and changed our special blood. The mixture benefited the Hybrid because it made them erect, gave them bigger brains and look less animal like.

If earth was flat then you could fire a laser from new jersey and someone in Westminster abbey will see it.
If earth was flat then the same wind blowing in Antarctica would be felt all over the world.
If earth was flat then you shouldn't notice different constellations in the southern sky when traveling from Greece to Egypt.

this is not the answer to the question. You are just wasting time. I wouldn't go over debunking the same thing over and over


The constellation your fore fathers used in navigation is the same one we see today, Polaris the north pole star stays fix and never moves from century to millennials it never changes position but you are said to be moving @ over 670,000,000,000 miles per hour.

Look the more you try that is the more you even debunk your own self.

abbeg:
pilots assume earth is flat for the same reason physicists assume earth is a perfect sphere when making calculations.
And yes, planes flying from Russia to Australia will infact, land "upside down".

you are now begining to show your ignorance. Pilots assume and maintain a flat horizon using what is known as the gyroscope which had a gimbal, these instrument cannot work on a curved surface, only on a flat plain does it work.

No physicist or engineer factor in the curvature of the earth when making calculations or constructions.

No plane lands upside down in australia. All flights fly straight till they get to their destination. Planes do not dip their nose to account for curvature. Gyroscopes cannot work on an aircraft that suddenly somersault to fly upside down and land.

Don't use your busy body to shame yourself, do yourself a favor and walk out now.

How about this:
Warship guns are designed to fire over the horizon. That's what the crew is taught. If the earth was flat, then they'd just use binoculars and locate targets from any range. So you're telling me nations from all around the world DELIBERATELY reduce their ships fighting ability just to prevent some people from knowing earths true shape? And risk the possible destruction of their ships worth hundreds of millions of dollars? And the 2000 men that man these ships? The fate of entire nations sometimes rested on large naval battles in ww2. Do did UK purposely reduce their ships ability to fight? How about the Germans? Didn't the Reich matter more than earth's shape?

this is a waste of time. Were is the experiment?

Greetings


So we know the Earth is flat rather bumpy. And we know that Earth changes have occurred such as breaking up of Pangea into separate continents. South America and Africa were once connected meaning you didn't need to cross any ocean to travel between the two. Let's talk genetics for not only has the Earth gone through changes yet also man and animal. The primordial Africans or original race lived in Africa and in the Americas.


Slide A

The skulls of Primordial Africans found in Inca South America and in Egypt were of the elongated type. There are skeletons remains found which were very tall. We will examine later. Yet this is what our ancestors looked like before the flood. These depictions are in Yoruba legends and also the East African Bachwezi legends. This also matches Atlantis and Lemuria legends also Greek Mythology and Mini and who were also Aboriginals.

Slide B

This is the blood type world map which shows which blood type is predominant for each geographical area of the Earth. Majority Blacks on Earth are type O blood and make up the majority of the O positive.

Africa type O

America's type O

MiddleEast Levant or Babylon type O

O stands for Original.

Slide C

Shows Pangea where there was one land mass for the whole Earth. This shows Ancient primordial Africans didn't travel by boat to go across lands. It shows Africa and the Americas are side by side which proves that we are the same people separated by oceans and bloodlines.

Don't use your busy body to shame yourself, do yourself a favor and walk out now.

But gyroscopes DO wander in planes. In fact pilots are advised to account for it every 10-15 minutes. To observe this "wander " better, its advisable to use a ring laser gyroscope instead of the older models.
When calculating acceleration due to gravity, you DELIBERATELY ignore earths imperfect shape to make things easier. In reality earth isn't a perfect sphere and gravitational pull isn't the same everywhere. Gravity is a bit stronger at the poles.
Once again, there is no up or down on earth. Australia might as well be the very top of earth.

We at the beginning of a 1000 years of a new 7000 year cycle.

Truth is powerful and indisputable

EMILO2STAY:
I just cant keep this to myself anymore, the truth must be known

The Earth is a Globe
For most of the world, the Earth is a globe that is spinning on it’s axis. This train of thought is ingrained into us from the moment that we are born, and as we proceed into formal education, globes are present in all classes. This could be further from the truth. Due to our indoctrination as children as well as faked moon landings, we have been led to believe that as humans we can traverse the atmosphere.
For most of history, mankind has always known that the Earth is flat, and there have been many experiments to prove the same. The globe theory was first coined in the beginning of the 6th century by the philosopher Pythagoras. He was of the idea that the earth was not flat as was widely believed.

This did not take hold but was later implemented during the 15th century by Martin Behaim in 1492. Although the idea had already started floating around when Columbus first sailed to the Americas, it should be noted that he was not the first man to set sail to America.
This is another deception that will be covered in a subsequent page.

This also did not happen by coincidence. It was during the reign of Queen Isabella I of
Castile and Ferdinand II of Aragon that this idea was peddled by the elites to begin one of the greatest deceptions that mankind has witnessed.

The reality is that the Earth is flat and has a firmament above it. It is a perfect system with a designer, who in his glorious power maintains the same.

The firmament is something that science and the elites have hidden from mankind for a long time, especially after Operation Fishbowl , where the limits of the firmament were being tested under the guise of high altitude nuclear testing.

This operation coincidentally is under the umbrella
Operation Dominic .

Dominic is a Latin word meaning ” of The Lord” ; thus fishbowl of the Lord . This would not be obvious to a layman especially at a time when information was not readily available, and a time when the economies of the world were booming as well as Rock and Roll music to keep the people in a state of sleep.

The elites know we are in a fishbowl structure- firmament and know that there is a Lord that created this fishbowl! They have only chosen to disbelieve in him.

20 Reasons We Know the Earth Is Spherical

Ships and the horizon
The horizon is the line at which the Earth’s surface and the sky appear to meet. When ships sailing away disappear into the horizon, they do so bottom-first. The top vanishes later, which creates the illusion that the ship is sinking. Similarly, when ships appear from the horizon, the top appears first, and then the rest of the ship.
2. We cannot see very far away
Let’s say that you are standing on the West coast of North America on a clear day. While you are able to see the sun and moon in the sky, which are quite far away, you cannot see Japan if you look to the west. The reason you cannot see that far away on Earth is that light travels in a straight line and hence cannot follow Earth’s curve.
3. Visibility and elevated areas
Many sailors are aware of the fact that elevated areas of land are visible at greater distances than those less elevated. Moreover, if one is standing on an elevated area, they are able to see farther away into the distance compared to if they were standing at a lower altitude. The curvature of the Earth is responsible for these observations.
4. Other planets are spherical
Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn can all be seen with the naked eye. In 1781, William Hershel used his telescope to observe Uranus’ motion and discovered that it was a planet, not a star as was previously thought. Based on small perturbations in Uranus’ orbit, it was then predicted that a more distant planet also existed. In 1846, Neptune was discovered to be that planet (it was also previously thought to be a star). If the other planets in our solar system can be observed to be spherical, why should ours be any different?
5. Most things are spherical
Not only are planets spherical, but so are stars and moons. In fact, the forces of nature are such that objects tend to form into spheres, whether they are celestial bodies or mere soap bubbles. In the case of soap bubbles, surface tension, which wants to make the bubble smaller in all directions, causes the spherical shape. In the case of cosmic objects, it is gravity that tries to collapse matter in all directions since all the atoms are pulled toward a common center of gravity.
If a spherical object is rotating, the rotation flattens out the middle, making the sphere wider across the equator and narrower across the poles. This is because, in the case of rapid spinning, the centripetal force overcomes the gravitational attraction trying to create a spherical shape. Earth is an example of this, hence the oblate spheroid shape. Jupiter is the fastest spinning planet in our solar system and therefore is more flattened than Earth. The sun rotates slowly, but there are other stars that spin rapidly and also have flattened shapes. Rapid spinning is also the reason black hole accretion disks, solar systems, and galaxies exhibit flattened disk shapes.
6. Temperature variation from equator to poles
The Earth is tilted 23.5 degrees relative to the sun. The northern hemisphere is tilted toward the sun for 6 months, while the southern hemisphere is tilted away, and vice versa. Consequently, while equatorial areas receive direct sunlight all year round, polar areas spend half of the year pointed away from the sun. This difference in sunlight exposure results in higher temperatures closer to the equator.
The Earth’s tilt also explains the extreme length of day and night at polar locations. While the length of the day at the equator is almost exactly always 12 hours due to the equator always receiving direct sunlight, the length of day and night at the poles is influenced by the Earth’s position relative to the sun.
The Earth’s tilt is also the reason that there are four seasons, and that as we approach the equator, the intensity of the seasons decreases until they are completely nonexistent right at the equator.
7. The Earth revolves around the sun
The idea that the Earth revolves around the sun was first proposed in the 3rd century BC by Aristarchus of Samos. By then, the ancient Greeks had already figured out that the Earth is round, and had even calculated the size of the Earth as well as its distance from the sun and moon. However, the fact that the Earth orbits the sun allows us to conclude in several ways that the Earth must be spherical. For instance, the sun rises and sets. Since the sun does not move much relative to the Earth, the Earth itself must be spinning around its axis in order for the day and night cycle to be possible. For the Earth to be spinning in this manner, it must be round.
8. Shadows of sticks
Sticks placed vertically in the ground at distant locations have shadows of different lengths. The ancient Greeks were the first to compare the shadows of sticks at different locations. For instance, they found out that when the sun was directly overhead in one place, the stick there cast almost no shadow. At the same time, in another city, the stick there did cast a shadow. If the Earth were flat, both sticks would show the same shadow because they would be at the same angle toward the sun. Not only did the ancient Greeks conclude that the Earth must be round, they also used the shadow measurements to calculate the Earth’s circumference with decent accuracy.
9. Tides
The moon’s gravitational attraction causes the oceans to bulge out in the moon’s direction. The bulge occurs on both the side facing the moon and the opposite side. While it may not be immediately obvious why there is a bulge on the side opposite to the moon, the reason is that the Earth itself is also being pulled toward the moon, and hence away from the water on the far side. Since this occurs as the Earth is rotating, tides are generated. In particular, this leads to two (high) tides each day. Of course, this could only occur if the Earth were spherical.
10. Coriolis effect
The Earth rotates faster at the equator than it does at the poles. This is because the Earth is wider at the equator, so a point on the equator has to travel farther in a given period of time compared to a point spinning at a pole.
Let’s say that you have set up a gun at the North Pole which is aimed at a target somewhere on the equator. If we assume that the gun is perfectly precise, generates enough power for the bullet to reach the equator, that there are no obstacles in the way, and that there is no wind, will the bullet hit the target? Probably not. Because the target is on the equator, it is moving faster than the gun, and the bullet will probably land to the side of the intended target. This apparent deflection is the Coriolis effect.
The wind is like the bullet. It appears to bend to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere. Therefore, in the Northern Hemisphere, hurricanes and other storms swirl counter-clockwise, while they swirl clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere.
Pilots are aware of the Coriolis effect and take it into account when charting long-distance flights. This means that most planes are not flown in straight lines from origin to destination.
The Coriolis effect also plays a role in the existence of the Earth’s magnetic field. Magnetic fields produced due to the flow of liquid iron in the Earth’s core are roughly aligned in the same direction due to the Coriolis effect, which leads to the production of one vast magnetic field permeating the Earth.
Therefore, the Earth’s magnetic field and other consequences of the Coriolis effect such as the direction of flow of wind systems in the Northern and Southern Hemisphere are all testaments to the Earth’s spherical shape.
11. Gravity
If the Earth were a flat plane, its center of mass would be the center of the plane and the force of gravity will pull anything on the surface in that direction. This means that if you stand near the edge of the plane, gravity will be pulling you sideways toward the middle of the plane.

12. Variations in the Earth’s gravitational field
Earth’s gravity is slightly weaker at the equator than at the poles. There are two reasons for this. First, since a point at the equator spins faster than a point at a pole, the outward centripetal force at latitudes near the equator is greater and counteracts the Earth’s gravity more. The second reason is that the Earth’s equatorial bulge (itself also caused by the centripetal force) causes objects at the equator to be farther away from the Earth’s center than objects at the pole, and the gravitational pull between two objects is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
The variations in Earth’s gravitational attraction can be measured and provide concrete evidence of the Earth’s shape.
13. The Earth’s shadow
During a lunar eclipse, the sun, Earth, and the moon are aligned such that the Earth’s shadow falls onto the moon. The Earth’s shadow has been observed to be curved as the planet is.
14. Different constellations at different latitudes
At any given point on Earth at a given time, about half of the possible sky will be visible. If you are exactly on the North or South Pole, the sky will appear to rotate around you and you don’t get to see new stars as time goes on. For any other points on Earth, the visible constellations change as the Earth rotates. However, constellations that are too far north or south cannot be seen from the opposite hemisphere because they would always be below the horizon. Constellations that can be seen from both above and below the equator, such as Orion, appear to be upside-down when you cross from one side of the equator to the other.
The first person to observe this difference in visible constellations and use it to conclude that the Earth must be round was Aristotle (384–322 BC).
15. Double sunset
It is possible to witness the sun set twice on the same day. One way this could be done is to lay down in an open field, watch the sun set, and then quickly rise and you would notice that it had not set completely from this higher altitude. You could also bring along a friend. One of you lies down and the other stands and both try to time when the sun sets. The person standing would have clocked a slightly later time.
For a more dramatic effect, you could go to the base of a tall tower, such as the Burj Khalifa in Dubai. Observe the sunset, then quickly take the elevator to the highest possible floor open for tourists (the elevators travel at 10m/s). You should be able to watch the sun set again.
This double sunset, of course, would only be possible if the Earth were spherical. The reverse experiment can also be conducted at sunrise.
16. Maps are 2D projections
It is impossible to flatten an orange peel without distorting it in some way (tearing, stretching etc.). Similarly, it is impossible to produce a 2D map of the Earth without introducing distortions in terms of shape, distance, direction or land area. This is the reason there are several map projections of the Earth such as the Mercator, Gall-Peters and Robinson projections. If the Earth were flat, producing a world map would have been a lot more straightforward.
17. We can travel around the world
The first global circumnavigation in history was an expedition by the Portuguese explorer Magellan and his crew, completed in 1522. While 223 out of the initial 241 men or so that set out on the journey had died, including Magellan himself, the few remaining crew members successfully made it back to Spain after a trip around the world.
Today, the fastest military aircraft are capable of circumnavigating the globe in less than 10 hours.
18. We have photographic evidence
The first pictures of Earth from space were taken at an altitude higher than 160km in 1947, using captured German V-2 rockets from World War II. In 2018, NASA released a picture of the Earth and moon taken from a distance of over 63 million kilometers away, showing the Earth and moon as isolated bright dots.

19. The testimony is reliable
We can rely on the fact that no cartographer, geographer or physicist ever pauses to think that the Earth might be flat. In fact, Vogel notes that, since the 8th century, “no cosmographer worthy of note has called into question the sphericity of the Earth.”
20. Physics rules everything around me
Flights, GPS, satellites and other modern technologies work due to our understanding of the shape and size of the Earth to extraordinary precision. If we were wrong about even minute details in our measurements of the Earth, we would have found out.

Wake up out your slumber

4. Other planets are spherical
Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn can all be seen with the naked eye. In 1781, William Hershel used his telescope to observe Uranus’ motion and discovered that it was a planet, not a star as was previously thought. Based on small perturbations in Uranus’ orbit, it was then predicted that a more distant planet also existed. In 1846, Neptune was discovered to be that planet (it was also previously thought to be a star). If the other planets in our solar system can be observed to be spherical, why should ours be any different?

What you see with your naked eye is an illusion the freemasons tatooed on your eyeballs while you slept. When you wake up you will indeed find that Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn do not really exist except as lights projected into the sky by Hollywood to deceive you that they are round.

Thankfully, earth has been freed from the spherical/globe conspiracy. As you can see below with your naked eye, it is very flat.

you cannot counter any of the point? can you ?your understanding of basic geography physics and astronomy is zero.

go and sleep Mr man you have no argument.

But gyroscopes DO wander in planes. In fact pilots are advised to account for it every 10-15 minutes. To observe this "wander " better, its advisable to use a ring laser gyroscope instead of the older models.
When calculating acceleration due to gravity, you DELIBERATELY ignore earths imperfect shape to make things easier. In reality earth isn't a perfect sphere and gravitational pull isn't the same everywhere. Gravity is a bit stronger at the poles.
Once again, there is no up or down on earth. Australia might as well be the very top of earth.

just listen to yourself,.... "" Planes land upside in australia, australia is on top of the earth""

See the reason why I never wanted to engage you, your just a waste of my time. You don't even know what your saying. pls go and sleep.

people who have nothing to prove their points beyond reasonable doubts result to insults

Nicely explained. You must be a physicist engineer.
I learnt something from your explanation of why microscopic item cannot stick to a ball on earth. I always wondered why not.

Or maybe you aren't paying attention.



I like your questions, they are naive but I'd take a questioning mind to one that thinks his/her knowledge is infallible.

1. Gravity doesn't work like that. A ball lacks the mass to produce its own gravity. (The gravity acting on a ball on earth is the earth's)

2. Any object with its own gravitational field, you don't need to even put anything on its surface for it to attract it, it only needs to be within its gravitational field for it to pull it towards the center of gravity.

(That's why whenever you jump, you don't fly off, you are pulled back down )

3. Any object massive [dense] enough can create not just own gravitational field but can reach a hydrostatic equilibrium (This is why less massive objects tend to have more obloid shapes that spherical)

No. What I'm trying to tell you is that they are not, no one is.

Gravity pulls towards the earth's core not from one side to another.

So, the only down is the earth's core. The other side is still up.

There are no up and down in space.

Your up and down perspective is from the gravitational attraction keeping you firmly pointed to the earth's core.

No sir. Refer to the answer above.



If you know what 8 inches is and what 1 mile is, you will understand how perfectly impossible it is for you to observe.

Refer to the first to why body of water like lakes and seas are pulled towards the earth.

Why it have a curvature as the earth? That's due to the physical property of water, water atoms stick together, in the presence of reduced gravitational effect, surface tension forms it into a sphere.

LOL .
its really funny how you think you just did something there!!
Does earth have up and down? Can you prove to me that Australia is at the bottom of earth? I've said this over and over, SPACE HAS NO UP OR DOWN and all you can come up with is "you don't know what you're saying". It's like I should just copy that statement so I can just paste it whenever you bring up that ridiculous argument.
Talking to you is like talking to a brick wall.

Bros go and understand how space works before coming to question it please.

Are you really a believer?
Which do you believe in, the Bible truth about the earth or the model(theory) from men?

The sun was created before the earth?

That is correct both biblically and scientifically

How about the earth revolving around the sun instead of the bible truth?

If at the age and time of technology, people going to space to work in space station and live videos and pictures someone still need proofs that the earth is not flat, then the level of ignorance is beyond comprehension. If the earth is flat, then California in US will be at one end of a flat plane while Australia will be on the far east. Then the only way to travel from Australia to US to to go west. But you can travel east ward from Australia to the California US which is a shorter route.
Besides check this live video from Space.

How about the earth revolving around the sun instead of the bible truth?

Ecclesiastes 1:5 says: “The sun rises, and the sun sets; then it hurries back to the place where it rises again.” However, this statement merely describes the apparent motion of the sun as viewed from the earth. Even today, a person can use the words “sunrise” and “sunset,” yet he knows that the earth revolves around the sun.
note that sun also rotates along its axis?

So you believe the earth revolves around the sun and the sun is older than the earth?

Earth's age = billions?
Sun's age = billions?
