the most dense people in the world: The flat earth society

That explanation makes less sense than Chewbacca living on Endor with a bunch of three foot tall Ewoks. If Chewbacca does not make sense, the Earth must be round!

Oh my golly gosh! If the bible says the earth is flat, then it must be true!

the space shuttle "conspiracy"

yes, all FErs think ALL space travel is a hoax, and ALL photos from NASA are fakes. i was trying to show how silly this belief is.

I believe NASA is telling the truth.

and FErs believe all space travel to be false, yet have NO explanations for how it COULD be falsified.

and it IS possible for someone on a fast airplane to keep the shuttle in sight all the way into orbit. in fact NASA is REQUIRED to do so! but of course, FErs INSIST that all of NASA is in on their theoretical "conspiriacy" which they also have no proof of.

one FEer said it flies "in a random direction to avoid the cameras". WRONG. it always flies DUE EAST, OVER THE OCEAN!
so if it did circle back, ANYONE on the ENTIRE east coast could see it, use a camera to take a picture, and post it on the internet for EVERYONE TO SEE!

the FACT that this has never happened certainly makes their "conspiracy theory" sound silly. unless, of course, the conspiracy controlled the entire internet...including this website?!

Centrifugal force does exist. It is the constant force experienced in a rotating reference frame. If they don't believe in centrifugal force, they're going to have a lot of trouble working things out in things like turning cars and rotating space ships.

My house is somewhere in the middle.

Actually, the Bible doesn't say the Earth is flat as far as I know, and I'm pretty well versed in my theology for an atheist. There is a Jewish tradition that says space is literally painted onto a giant dome, though.

According to Flat-Earth thinkers NASA spends BILLIONS of dollars on improving photoshop.

LOL

they're going to have a lot of trouble working things out in things like turning cars and rotating space ships.

Correction: there is no such thing as space ships.

lol, this sounds like something Dwight would believe on The Office.

Our Bill of Rights tells us we have "freedom of speech", but they should really think about adding a clause that says, "unless you're going to say stuff like this crap: [insert link to flat earth site here]"

Also, the early Hebrews were right, except that space is photoshopped onto a giant dome.

Revelation 7:1
1 And after these things I saw four angels standing on FOUR CORNERS OF THE EARTH, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree. (KJV)

Job 38:44 "Where were you when I laid the earth's foundation?Tell me, if you understand. Who marked off its dimensions? Surely you know! Who stretched a measuring line across it?

Nice finds Gara; I should have remembered those, as I always ignored my religion instructor during my grade school days and read from Revelations. At the end of that year, I won an award for my knowledge of religion and was promptly laughed at by all my friends. Ah, the irony...
