I just did another map with chatgtp. I asked it to do a flat circle and the first ones it gave me showed a bulge in the middle I had it remove that because I wanted to have a map that matched Piccard's description as he was the first to see earth from a specially designed balloon. In an interview afterwards he said the earth was a "disk with upturned edges." Now if a perfectly flat earth would permit the countries to see all the stars, would a flat earth with a bulge block those views of the stars? I have attached the picture that duplicates Piccard's description. There may be a combination of a flat earth and a bulge that would explain why some science supports a flat earth and why some supports a globe?
There does not exist any verifiable science that supports a globe earth spinning at 1,000mph whereby HUGE oceans and Lakes do not go spilling out over the earth.

No one has answered. You cannot see the southern stars from the northern hemisphere, and visa verse. Why is that? Do you have an answer? Is repeating the question because no one answers a sign that the flat earth is true? Is THIS your argument??

Much love!
The argument presented below crushes the concept of a flat earth.
The Sun moon and stars move = not the earth
The star Polaris above the North Pole is 90 degrees above the horizon.
FACT....What ever your attitude on earth is Polaris is that many degrees above that longitude.
If you were to drop south and you're in Toronto Canada Polaris is about 74 degrees above the horizon.
If you dip further south to Miami Florida the star would now be about 26 deg's above the horizon.
Drop even further south to Coban Guatemala and Polaris will now be about 16 deg's.
Drop further south to the equator and the star will be at the horizon.
Drop below the equator and Polaris will be below the equator and never seen.

On a flat earth this would not happen below the equator as the star Polaris would ALWAYS be visible. But it isn't.
How is that possible on a flat earth?

Did God create the sun, moon and stars?

This is observed daily by cameras in satellites and people in the space station. It is how we have day and night.
Oceans don't spill out because gravity pulls it down like it does with everything.

Every nation and culture believes in the global earth theory. It has been known for hundreds, even thousands of years by the ancient Greeks and Romans.

Why would every country in the world be lying to its people about this?

Did God create the sun, moon and stars?
1 In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.

14And God said, “Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens to separate the day from the night. And let them be for signs and for seasons,f and for days and years, 15and let them be lights in the expanse of the heavens to give light upon the earth.” And it was so. 16And God made the two great lights—the greater light to rule the day and the lesser light to rule the night—and the stars. 17And God set them in the expanse of the heavens to give light on the earth, 18to rule over the day and over the night, and to separate the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good. 19And there was evening and there was morning, the fourth day.

In fact it was Jesus. AKA the Word.

Gravity does not exist = it cannot be proven.

Gravity is easily debunked with simple science experiment.

Every nation and culture believes in the global earth theory.
It has been known for hundreds, even thousands of years by the ancient Greeks and Romans.
Most nations KNEW that we live on the surface of a immeasurable flat plain that has DEEP cut-outs for Oceans, Lakes, Rivers.

The globe earth is the deception that the fallen angels taught = Nimrod, Egypt, Babylon

Why would every country in the world be lying to its people about this?
What exactly took place in Genesis chapter 3 ?

Not just governments.

Government agencies
Airlines
Space flight companies
Shipping Companies
Cruise lines
Builders of undersea cables, pipelines, and such
News Agencies
Private sailors and pilots
Astronomers
Communications companies
Scientific and research companies.

How many millions work in these fields with access to the "truth" of a flat earth, but no one does the big reveal to secure their 15 minutes of fame? Beyond belief!

Much love!

GREAT

Now, if you continue to believe the Word that was God and became flesh/JESUS, then you should believe all HE Spoke

The heavens declare the glory of God;
And the firmament shows His handiwork.
2Day unto day utters speech,
And night unto night reveals knowledge.
3There is no speech nor language
Where their voice is not heard.
4Their line has gone out through all the earth,
And their words to the end of the world.
In them He has set a tabernacle for the sun,
5Which is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber,
And rejoices like a strong man to run its race.
6Its rising is from one end of heaven,
And its circuit to the other end;
And there is nothing hidden from its heat.

OK?????? Do you have some sort of point you're trying to make?

I think the truth is that you have no answer and this simple question blows the whole idea of a flat earth out of the water. Likewise the matter of perspective of the sun and moon. Likewise the distances between land masses in the "north" and "south" of the flat earth.

Any one of these things shows the flat earth view false, and shows you to be avoidant of the facts that show you to be in error.

Much love!
None of us are God and have all the answers. The fact that NASA has lied about God's creation is proven over and over. And there are multitudes of proofs that God's Word is true, that you all completely ignore. You'd still rather believe a lie than to believe God.

Wow ....just read it and believe what He said. The Word IS Truth.
I think @David in NJ thinks the world is flat because Jersey is flat. Imagine what he would believe if he was from Kansas.

I wonder if David knows the only reason NJ is there is to keep Pennsylvania from washing away.

How does this disprove gravity?
You cannot calculate the level/meaasurement of force needed to keep WATER from spinning off a globe spinning at 1,000mph

How much force is required for WATER to flow uphill when the globe spins?

How much force is required to keep the Pacifc Ocean from spilling out when the globe is spinning upside down?

Easy experiment:
Determine the force needed to hold a 100 ton military tank on the earth as it spins/rotates upside down.
