yeahhhhh sorry man, but, gonna have to side w/ your brother on this one.

The sun always rises in the east and sets in the west, Unless you're on the north/south pole, in which case those directions don't really have the same meaning, and where, also, the sun either never sets or never rises, depending on the time of the year.

And I have not seen any photos of this so-called edge/ice wall that supposedly surrounds us. None that aren't CGI or other digital imagination art renderings. You might be dependant on NASA for photography of the globe but no one has tried flying a plane near this wall?

Why is it that someone in America can look up at the stars tonight and someone in Australia can as well yet the two views of the night sky are so dramatically different? Why aren't we all seeing the same stars all the time? If we're all looking up from the same plane, we should see the same thing. Unless you're going to tell me that the stars are fake.

lol so shoot the messenger you don't approve of and completely ignore the quote by the guy who took the picture talking about how based on weather conditions, the city shows up more, or less, or not at all (and, not talking about fog/rain/etc conditions).

"waves" LOL it's a lake. There are no tsunamis between the shores. So long as you're standing on land on one side, your eyes are higher than any of the waves that lake is going to have, even with chop.

I like to compare the photos as to what's changed. Are the buildings wider, taller, shorter are there more of them? Less of them? It's always different, it's so unpredictable, I want to catch as many different views of it as I can," Nowicki said.

To those that doubt affects of refraction. The full Chicago skyline should be visible all the time if it weren't the case, barring clouds, rain or fog. However that’s not the case, it is always changing."

I have, and the arguments fall flat, are disproven, and just simply make no sense.

Go stand on the US East Coast with a portable telescope and tell me you can see the European coast line. If sea level is flat, then there's nothing obstructing your view. It will be small, since it's so far away, which is why you need the telescope. But, if I can see the rings of Saturn with my telescope, I can sure as shit see another continent...except, you can't, because the curvature of the Earth prevents it. Watch a ship come up over the horizon, or go down over the horizon. Either way. You won't see it just get smaller and smaller until you can't make it out anymore; you will literally watch as the ship appears/disappears gradually as more and more of it becomes obstructed by the curvature.

Sorry man, but Flat Earth is one of the most ridiculous things I've ever heard.

As a heterosexual white Christian male, I can say that I have no desire to destroy the world. I mean, I have to live here, too.
