The Bible mentions the "4 corners" of the Earth but in the flat earth model it is a circle and doesn't have corners. So if you want to take everything literally your model doesn't match the Bible either.
Yeah, but you can have a circle within a square, for example. The map that's commonly shown is just what people have gotten used to and what fits best with what's observed; as such, it doesn't mean it's representative of the actual world. We don't really know how/what it is.
I've never really been interested in the Bible prior to finding out about FE; it never made much sense to me, my felt sense being that God is within me/us/everything, not in a particular book/place. Once I overcame my indoctrination (it's readily available to anyone willing to look), I realized that this is indeed a creation, what else could it be? If I ever contemplated that idea with the Big Bang as the inception point, surely it would make more sense given a smaller, dedicated realm? Genesis sure looks different now.
I appreciate your patience, fren.
The irony, though, considering his name.

I've found this video (Revisiting the Firmament) (1h22m) to be pretty interesting.
