There is a link that gives a visual explanation of the path of the sun through the year. Just like on the globe model it travels between the tropics of cancer and Capricorn through the year, only on FE the sun is small and near, and it travels in expanding and contracting circles throughout the year. Side note, the book of Enoch seems to uncannily describe the path of the sun in FE terms. Not all FE people believe their is a domed firmament above us, but I do because it further explains the distribution of daylight across earth.
Also note that daylight and sunlight are two different things. I may see daylight even if the sun is beyond my horizon. The sun seems to have an EMF output that floresces the sky, and affects the light/phases of the moon (the moon is its own light, not a reflector).
We can't see the sun for an unlimited distance across flat earth for 2 main reasons. First, you can't even see across the street if it's foggy enough. Our air is not completely transparent and you may see far but you cannot see forever. 2nd is perspective, as objects go away from us they eventually vanish into a horizon at our eye level, even if we should have line of sight with the object. If a plane flies over your head at a constant 30k feet altitude, it will appear to decend into the horizon even though it is maintaing altitude.
PS, do you think that picture of earth is real?
If the earth was flat I could see China in Canada from a telescope, you absolute flaming retard.
If that's true then how come you can't see across the street sometimes when it's foggy? The atmosphere is not completely transparent even I'm the most ideal conditions, so we can't see through it indefinitely. This is so obvious I can't believe you got done typing that comment without thinking twice. Good job retard
So I can take a telescope and look alllllll the way through the atmosphere on a clear night and see the surface of the moon which is 238000 miles away. But that same telescope can't see China. Because the earth isn't flat you fucking idiot.
Another obvious answer to another retarded statement. Objects in the sky, particularly the more directly overhead they are, have less atmosphere to be viewed through, and the density of air decreases with altitude. This is why the sun and moon are brightest when directly overhead, and lessen the closer they get to the horizon because they have far more atmosphere to penetrate. Humans already can't breath at 30,000 feet cause the air is so thin, and you are talking about the moon being 238k miles away as if that distance proves your point. The lower your altitude and the lower to the horizon you look, the more atmospheric density you have to obscure your vision. Globe earth and flat earth both claim this phenomenon to be true.
