He is always entertaining..and the explanation of earlier proofs was interesting. Thanks.
P.S is that even a thing? People really believing the Earth is flat? How bizarre!

@Stacey48 It sounds so silly..Monty Python stuff!

@Stacey48 "Flerfers" are out there in droves.
Even some famous celebrities believe it despite all the evidence for our "globe".
I don't engage with people THAT wilfully ignorant.
They're impossible to reason with.

Oh yes, whole societies of flerfers are out there, including celebrities.

Literally not even worth our time

Flat Earth is partly an attempt to discredit Science in order to "improve" the standing of religion.

Level 8

The amount of time that the flat-earthers spend trying to explain away science is ridiculous, and their answers remain unsatisfying because the have to ignore so many observations. Almost every flat-earth proponent I've seen has been inspired by young-earth creationism as interpreted from a literal reading of the Bible. Such delusion!

The flat Earthers prove the idea, that whatever a person believes is true for that person, is false. There is a reality that doesn't depend on belief.
