Just go outside and watch a sunset/sunrise.

Really, it seems to me some people cannot think for themselves outside of youtube, anymore.
I take it, you never watch YouTube and you believe that if someone is on YouTube, they can't be telling the truth.

NASA's founding fathers (so to speak) were freemasons, occultists ...Wernher Von Braun, an MK Ultra mind control programmer.
I've heard some of that. I happen to be very skeptical of NASA, especially over the moon landing.

Yeah I've done that. Are you implying sunsets and sunrises prove the shape of the earth? If so, how?


Do you care to explain the relevance of this?
Think. Use your imagination and the elementary school knowledge about shapes and physics.

What's the same as walking over a hill? A ship disappearing under the horizon is the same as walking down a hill? Haha please clarify.


What do you mean? Someone could see hills and mountains where there are none, sure it's possible.

Are you referring to the existence of hills and mountains as evidence for a globe earth?
ANYTHING curved is an example of the curvature of the earth. And seeing the curvature of the earth is no more an illusion than anything else.

And if it helped some people's political chaos agenda to say that oranges were flat they’d make a convincing PowerPoint presentation and swear it were true. And some would believe it.

I asked two questions, and you replied to both. Was this answer intended for both questions?

Is 'elementary school knowledge about shapes and physics' supposed to explain the relevance of your comment, "it seems to me some people cannot think for themselves outside of youtube, anymore."?

I can exercise the same tactic. Just think about how your answers are unsatisfactory.

So water dripping off a basket ball is an example of water on a globe earth?

Then why do we have oceans if the basket ball is our example?

No, I know it's not, but is a globe.

God showed me when I lived on Maui. I lived up the mountain, and before heading down the mountain to go to work every morning, you could look across to the neighboring island of Lanai and see the wrecked freighter on Shipwreck Beach. When you got down to the shoreline road it disappeared below the horizon. Some might try to say that was because of the height of the seas--but I know better--because my job was taking a boat out across those seas every morning.
I like the way you replied to this....

You not only answered the question, but you also - succinctly - gave evidence to support your answer.

Kudos!

I love Hawaii, I miss it!

How is his answer evidence for a globe earth?

Anyone can discern the Moon is round, by observing the shadows cast on it... It only takes a few days to figure that out.

Now, why would the Moon be round, but the Earth, not?

Well perhaps, if shadows are following principles we might expect them to, and there is no trickery involved.

Now, why would the Moon be round, but the Earth, not?
Well for starters, maybe because God made them to differ. Why is the earth larger than the moon? So they say.

Do you propose that because the moon is supposedly a globe, therefore the earth must also be a globe?

X=True
Therefore, Y=True?

Because the higher elevation (on Maui) allows for the observer to see the entire wreck which is far away; but the entire wreck isn't visible at sea level. Which means, there's a curvature to the Earth.

Do you understand how reply works on forums? I quoted your post and replied. Therefore, my reply belongs to your post I quoted.
