People are stupid. That much I learned during Covid.
If the Earth's surface were flat, then when the Sun is visible in the sky it will be visible from all points on the "flat" surface of the Earth. If it is daylight in USA it will be daylight in China. This is most certainly not the case. Say, you live in the Eastern states of USA, like I do. Just call your friends/relatives in Europe in the late afternoon and see if it is already night there. Instant communications defeat the flat Earth hypothesis.
Yes. And you are one of the stupid ones. The sun is not 92 million miles away. If you hold a flashlight shining down onto a football field, does it light up the while field? No. Do better.
It has nothing to do with the distance to the Sun. A plane divides 3-dimensional space in two half-spaces - above and below. Light travels in straight path.
You are imagining the Sun as a spot light at a movie set, not as an isotropic source of light, while measurements indicate that it is an isotropic source. But how does this "bright spot" on a flat surface agree with the actual patterns of day and night experienced on Earth. Present the evidence.
Sheep need to be fed information. Be a wolf and hunt for it. Or don’t. But unless you are paying for my time, don’t presume you can demand anything from me.
You are not that smart. The Sun is not a flashlight. When it is night on the East Coast we do not see a beam of light shining down on Chicago or LA. Smarten up dummy!
