we use geometry among other things to come to the conclusion that our surface is planar

ok wait - this is news to me.

sorry if i am just cluing in here, but... when you say "science" is wrong... i mean.. what part? lol

if you use geometry, then what part of science™ is brainwashing ? :)

it doesn't really resonate

what part "doesn't really resonate" with you ?

in your "gut" you mean... some of the science stuff doesn't "feel" right, is what you are saying? :) lol

I don't think you know how to debate.

i'm just chatting

but seriously, i think you missed my point.

at 500 miles, i am saying half will be visible.

at 500 miles, you are saying 100% will be visible?

so... from a tall enough vantage point - empire state building, for example, you can see someone on the shores of the UK -- if only you had a strong enough zoom lens?

is that what you are saying??

like ... someone on the shores of australia could see someone on the shores of alaska... because water always finds a level... if only you had a strong enough zoom lens.

you believe that?

and you also believe there are no satellites

and space doesn't exist.

does the moon exist, or is the moon an illusion?

i'm still trying ti figure out if you guys believe in geometry or not...

/science built the internet -- and you're on it

The sextant wasn't invented until like 2000 years after Aristotle

sorry my point is that the sextant relies on geometry - which Aristotle (eventually) uses to "prove" Earth is a globe.

you don't really believe in all that geometry brainwashing do you ??

the air will not allow you to see 1000 miles.

maybe not in beijing but whatever... yes... a super clear day :)

Though a vaccum, then yes.

yes fine fine a vaccum - whatever you need bro...

then yes, we could see your dream house from anywhere on this plane with a strong enough lens.

interesting. so...

do you believe there is an "edge" ? like... if you sail to the edge of Earth (or fly or walk or whatever) then... you'll fall off into space ? :)

let me restate:

the sextant uses geometry -- which Aristotle used to further his globe theory.

i thought flat earthers didn't believe in geometry.

am i wrong about that ? you don't believe in all the geometry brainwashing, do you ??

thank you.

let's make it easy... and just assume i am able to build a 128 mile tall building.

let's also also assume my building is 128 miles wide and deep.

basically a huge block that is 128 miles in every direction.

yes? are you with me?


OK now let's paint this massive block the colors of the rainbow....

20 mile tall band of red at the top; and then...

20 mile tall band of orange; and then...

20 mile tall band of yellow; and then...

all the way down to a 20 mile band of purple at the bottom.


now... hold my hand, and let's take a walk.


if we walk 1000 miles away from my 128 mile tall/wide building:

  • science says: you will not be able to see this building any more - not even with a strong zoom lens.

  • flat earth says: you can see 100% of the building with a strong enough zoom lens.


but what if we walk only 500 miles away from my 128 mile tall/wide building -- half way....

  • science says: you will be able to see half the building - specifically... just the red and the orange and the yellow. i.e., the top half - not a small version of the whole thing... THE TOP HALF will be visible.

yes?

no zoom lens necessary :) that thing is huge. like seriously huge.

  • flat earth says: you can see 100% of the building with a strong enough zoom lens.

i am saying... without a zoom lens ...half will be visible . and half will be hidden.

do you agree?

you're saying... half will be visible without a zoom lens - and the other half will be visible with a strong enough zoom lens?

Is this correct/does this make sense?

yes, but the point that the flat earthers are trying to make:

  1. the "water drain" stuff is difficult to duplicate;

  2. the "star spin" - they say - is caused by a reflection off the dome that covers flat earth - i'm not joking.

BUT EARTH CURVE IS NEVER INCLUDED IN CELESTIAL NAVIGATION CALCULATIONS

let me restate:

the sextant uses geometry (which Aristotle used to "prove" a globe, but whatever)

i thought flat earthers didn't believe in geometry.

am i wrong about that ?

the recent flooding in pakistan was caused by "monsoons on steroids".

hold both beliefs globe and flat for hundreds of years.

you can "believe" whatever you want ... :)

Just like "flat earthers" can believe whatever they want, but the internet will still works for them - even though the internet was built with "science".

where does a sextant correct for the globe

tell me you don't know how a sextant works... w/o telling me you know know how a sextant works :)

Yes you can say it like that.

not me. islam said it like that.

ya, test me out. l

ok...

how many miles away... would it take to hide a 100 mile tall building -- according to science™ ?

on the day of judgement, the Earth will be rendered flat

i.e., not flat - until day of judgement.

Sextants make more sense on flat earth

correct me if i am wrong, but sextants only work because Earth is a globe.

if Earth wasn't a globe, you wouldn't need a sextant to correct for refraction etc - as the sextant does.

that video basically mocks how many hoops you have to jump through to basically flatten the globe and get a straight bering.

lol, but once you jump through all the hoops ....sextants work!

this is undeniable.

and they wouldn't work if the Earth were actually flat - because a sextant corrects for factors that a globe creates. if you correct for events that don't actually exist, the final result will be wrong.

right? :)

SS:

Deep link to see how this challenge is presented:

https://youtu.be/QyLogn0SxR4?t=83

  • If the flat earther can successfully use a sextant, then we'll talk (and here's $500).

  • If the flat earther can is not able to use a sextant, then there is no point is any further discussion.

Seems reasonable.

The Flat-Earth™ vs. sextant Challenge - this one offers $500 to the first flat earther who is able to pinpoint her/his position with a sextant:

Nearly 2 million Americans are diagnosed with cancer every year

i'll bet you that number doubles over the next few years.

because w/o the vaccines, my friend would not have gotten cancer - is my theory.

you all are invested in the bullshit like the nurses are invested in covid - they can't bring themselves to see that they have been conned with "gotchas".

buddy... there is one way to prove it to yourself once and for all...

https://astronomy.com/news/2020/08/six-ways-to-buy-a-ticket-to-space-in-2021

the only thing standing between you and truth is about $500,000

suggest: crowdfund

title: "Flat Earther seeking to be proven right! (or wrong) - fly me to "space" har har wink wink!"

You could raise that kind of money so fast.

Stop wasting time. Go for it! Document it! Publish to youtube! You'll be famous.
