  • An old adversary Adam i Fe completely misunderstands what elevation is, and embarrassingly takes to google Earth in an attempt to prove the Earth is flat. Today we expose him.

      @Johnny Dong no they can't. Gravity would be a huge problem for someone or something because it would still be in the center of a flat planet. Therefore having almost no gravity in the center and more around the edges. When was the Last time you had to stand at a 185 degree angle in Canada?

      No, that just means the construction company put them at the same elevation, which is good because you don't want to be diving off a 10-foot plank that is not really 10-foot. It is for safety reasons.
      But the swimming pool area still can be used as definite proof.
      When you look at the level of the water in the pool, it is not curved. It is flat. The swimming pool is built on the surface of the earth. Therefore, the earth is flat!

      Yep, and due to gravity differences at the surface and in orbit, they also need to take relativity into account, otherwise their positioning would quickly degrade and the navigational systems would no longer work. I wonder wtf they think is effecting the satellites that would cause them to lose sync if not accounting for the difference in time due to gravitational warping of spacetime?
      Probably claim satellites aren't real, I'm sure, but then what to they think is running the navigational systems that apps like Google Earth use? It's like digging farther and farther down into a rabbit hole of excuses.

      @thephantomeagle2 3 года назад

      @@maemorri Actually I believe that isn't always constant. When you consider the differences in gravity, as minor as they are, winds, currents, river discharges, temperature all affect it. Sea Level is actually based upon the adjacent land, and not the oceans themselves. Throw in tides (thanks Kevin missed that first time) The same is true for the great lakes. On the Great Lakes, especially the smaller one, like Erie and Huron, it's mere millimeters, but Lakes Michigan, Huron, and of course Superior can be several inches. So it's not true.
      Just watch some of the FE videos that try to prove that the earth is flat, they find minor differences, and say it proves a flat earth, even though it doesn't. I saw one that had a difference of like 4 inches or so, and they said that on a globe it should be such and such......

      Yeah, every "debate" I've ever heard is just them being presented with irrefutable proof that they don't understand, so they say something about math tricks or whatever, then a bunch of name calling, some out of context Bible verses, something about flat water and how gravity is "just a theory"(that always makes me cringe), throw in the conspiracies and the CGI, wrap it up with their "proof" that never includes a model that reflects reality and that's about it. Tada!

    • @Felixr2
      @Felixr2 6 лет назад +6

      Oh, but they sometimes do have a model! See, gravity is obviously fake, the effects are cause by density. Denser objects fall. Oh, wait, that's the observation. So denser objects fall, because they are denser. And why so? Well, because of buoyancy, of course! What is buoyancy you ask? The phenomenon that causes denser objects to fall!
      What they fail to realise is that buoyancy is a result of gravity. And they sometimes even use the term "weight" in their explanation of buoyancy. Yes, weight, a force that exclusively occurs as a result of gravity, by definition.

You just got off a cruise ship, your around 10-20 bloody feet over sea level! They then take a bus to the glacier and ask again..."Do you recall driving up and steep hills?" "No"... that because you are about 50 feet over sea level!" Just cause you have mountains above you does not mean you high up. So this guys idea does not surprise me at all.

    According to his logic, if we were on a globe you would be over 1000 miles lower in elevation going from New York to San Francisco. then if you turned around and made the same journey the other way you would be another 1000 miles lower in elevation. So if you made the round trip 100 times you ought to be 200,000 miles lower in elevation.

      Nothing wrong with the Imperial system, it just depends what you are used to and what you "think" in. I was born under the old system, so if you ask me how tall I am I will say about 5'11" . I will use miles, give my weight in stones and pounds and order a pint in my local. However I have a science background and am happy using metric for work. I tend to think in centigrade though which is odd, as a chemist I should really think in Kelvin!

    He even has his drop calculation wrong. According to his method, Waymouth lies 31 miles higher than Aberdeen.

      Flattards cannot get it into of their pointy little heads that in the round earth model, i.e., reality, "down" is oriented toward the center of the earth from any position on the surface, and that the planet is not like a globe in the library that is sitting in the gravity well (of course, they don't believe in gravity, but anyway...) of a much, much more massive object such that the north pole is the top, the south pole is the bottom, and gravity pulls things in the southern hemisphere away from the globe. In their moronic notion of the round earth Weymouth is down from Aberdeen and Aberdeen is up from Weymouth because Weymouth is closer to the floor of the immense cosmic library in which the earth-globe exists.

    This is actually a very interesting video. Not from a flat earth point of view but from a psychological one. In the first video you can clearly see him realise that he had made a mistake in his thinking, get a bit embarrassed, but then plough on regardless. In the process making a conscious decision to lie to himself. Whilst this is perfectly common behavior in humans, doing it without correction leads eventually to madness. This is in interesting example of self inducted madness, rather than other types that are often unavoidable. I propose this behavior (in this case) is just mob mentality. A desperate need to fit into a group, means subjugating your own senses.

    This isn’t a matter of science as much as it is about psychology, IMO.
    There’s some serious mental neurosis with people who latch onto dogmatic/irrational beliefs; whether it be religion, astrology, flat earth, Bigfoot, or mermaids - it’s more about them needing a distraction from whatever ails them in life.
    For many, it’s the one area where they feel superior to others for being privy to, or “clever” enough to figure out the “truth.”
    They’re often not even trying to navigate discourse with evidence or rationale... they actually don’t even want to know. They probably wouldn’t be able to grasp the scientific significance, or the truthful nature of science to be begin with; but more importantly, they are not seeking truth. They’re looking for an echo chamber, or a co-signer to reinforce their beliefs.
    Science argues it’s conclusions based on evidence. Fanatics... non-conformists.... contrarians ..... (whichever moniker you prefer,) are simply protecting something precious to them... some of them know how to research and argue from an evidentiary stand-point, and feign intellectualism pretty well.
    Most of them I just feel sorry for, tbh...
    And it’s not like, “gee I wish Bethany would embrace Jesus as her lord and savior, bc I want her to go to heaven. I feel bad for her....”
    It’s more like, “I want to teach this person why it is that the majority of the world places their trust in the sciences. I want to teach them the truly impenetrable truth of mathematics/collated and quantified evidence, and the scientific method and epistemology.”
    Anyone who believes in god, astrology, the flat earth, or doesn’t believe in climate change simply doesn’t grasp the truly informative nature of science.

If you would learn some basic earth science you’ll learn that it is EXTREMELY easy to prove the earth is not flat. Every large scale map shows the earth is not flat. The so called flat earth map shows the earth cannot be flat! Plate tectonics is easily observed but can only be explained on a spherical earth. The distribution and recording of seismic waves from earthquakes is only possible on a spherical earth. From here in Australia we watch the stars rotate around the south celestial pole every night. The list goes on...
      Flat earthers think by saying ‘it looks flat to me’ that’s all that is needed and it’s proved. Nothing could be further from the truth. The globe earth model beautifully integrates many many independent disciplines including geology, geophysics, seismology, geochemistry, cartography, atmospheric circulation, oceanic circulation, astronomical prediction and others. Until you can come up with a flat earth model that integrates all these disciplines - and does it better than the globe model does - a flat earth is utter nonsense.

      John ama a Jesucristo the biggest problem is: if we would shoot people up into space so you could see, you would see that its not flat and you would try to tell everyone from flat earth. Bad news: they would say that you didnt got send into space and just got brainwashed by nasa cuz you would find out the truth. Either way noone would believe until they see.

So as they can hardly say "okay my method is stupid", they will end up projecting their own insecurities and the arguments against their position they have heard a million times back on "the enemy" ... Creationists do that to with the "Science is a religion" stuff. Heck THEISTS do it with the claim "Atheism is a belief".
      And in the end "everybody" not agreeing is "in on the conspiracy"... uhhhhh! A conspiracy shared by 7.35 billion human beings! And they did not make "Team Prank"? That surely is something to think HARD about? :D

      Lmao I call it genocidal because of the several times it committed/ordered genocide. Such as the supposed flood and telling his followers to conquer a nation and kill every man woman and child. Genocide is genocide regardless of the reason, if you took your blinders off a few minutes you'd see, your "god" is a despicable piece of shit that revels in mass murder and blood.

Yet your "god" has no problem with killing them. And you're telling me every single person of a race, nation or even just a single city could be evil, you're really trying to be a good little apologist here aren't you. Better make sure those blinders are strapped to your face good and tight, don't think you could handle it if they slipped a bit.

      Saul Goode - Try to prove it because you couldn't. Running quick numbers:
      Kansas elevation ~4,000 ft
      Rockies peak in Colorado ~14,400 ft
      Difference of ~10,400 ft
      Distance from Kansas to Rockies ~250 mi
      Assume 6 ft person looking, and the amount hidden due to curvature is ~40,000 ft
      Meaning that you couldn't see the peak (which is likely even further away than my approximation) unless you were at least 10,000+ ft in the air.
      So, again, prove it.

      Yeah, as if Oakley were the image of integrity and courage. Whenever somebody starts making sense and presenting hard, undeniable evidence he is cut off, forced into different topics or straightout rage kicked by Ranty and other "guardians" of Oakley's "truth". He is not interested in debating anything, he wants to hold court with his village idiot kingdom. Which has been shown countless times by how he switches his tune when somebody he THOUGHT did support the flat nonsense is recognizably a glober... you will see an immediate shift in how Oakley and his lickspittles react to that person and their arguments. Before they realize the truth they are all "amen, that's right" afterwards you'll be hardpressed to find any happyness at all, even if they agreed to every single thing said before!

    In order to accept the earth is flat you must ignore or lack understanding of the following:
    1. Physics. Ever shot a rifle? I hope FE's don't actually own firearms, but any long distance shooter knows about ballistics, and of course Coriolis Effect, which is easily verifiable depending on hemisphere you are in. This only affects north and south fired shots though. Right in the NH and left in the SH. Evotos (spelling, I know) affects east and westbound shots. High to the east and low to the west. Again, easily verifiable.
    ruclips.net/video/hiRaP8qxqa4/видео.html
    2. Gravity. FE's claim our disc simply travels up at 9.8 m/s (not squared as this is a FIXED value, obviously) through space. If this were true then there would be no gravitational acceleration, i.e. if you were to jump off of a curb, it would be the same as jumping from a house, or the empire state building for that matter because 9.8 is just 9.8. If an elevator was traveling upwards at that speed, jumping off the empire state building would be the same as jumping in that elevator. Well at least on Flat Earth it would be. I encourage any flattie to try that. Oh the irony there. Please conduct this experiment for us.
    3. Math. Not even going there. I seriously think FE's believe 2+2=5
    4. Technology. GPS does not come from cell towers, otherwise it wouldn't work in places like Iraq and Afghanistan, or the middle of the ocean or even above 10,000 feet. Cell towers are simply out of range of aircraft above about 10,000 feet, and over the ocean, obviously.
    wqad.com/2014/04/15/how-and-when-cell-phones-work-on-an-airplane/
    5. That there is NO coverup, or some massive worldwide conspiracy. Do I really need to say that the UN cannot even decide on how to deliver aid to countries in need? Do FE's even know what countries are on the permanent panel in the UN? Here you go, the 5 permanent voting members are: US, UK, France, China, and Russia. And you want me to believe that they are working together in some massive worldwide conspiracy dating back to when again? Please. That's some REAL tin foil hat wearing shit right there.

      I'm hoping that's sarcasm. It's definitely considered if you are making your own adjustments and not using a ballistics calculator. Why do you think the calculator needs to know cardinal directions to accurately determine POI? And yes, for wind obviously, but it still needs this info on calm days when wind is less than 1 mph. And the adjustments are still the same. I wonder why?

    • @ChopperDoc181

      So not a sniper. I started shooting when I was 5, with 17 years and counting in the Army. I've spent more time overseas than you did in the army. Figures infantry would believe the earth is flat. You do realize when we plan flight plans we account for the spin right? Also when shooting to 1500 yards or farther. Unless that's too far for you. I forgot, you always just call in an airstrike if it's that far out, or try and "walk it in". I have over 50 guns (don't even count them anymore, but worth 35,000 or more) and at least 10 of them are capable rifles beyond 1000 yards. Here's a tip: don't assume you know something just "because I've done it x amount of years" or whatever job you did. If you haven't fucking fired at something that far away, then don't come here with your bullshit "experience". Do you know what a BC is? Or what a grain is? You probably think grains are how many balls of powder are in a shell.
      There is plenty of math available for this very subject. And with anything in science, math is ALWAYS the proof.
      More about my experience: I also reload, and compete in rifle matches when I can. I own everything from .17 cal to .338. I've hit targets at 1800, and yes, Coriolis was a factor, so was spin drift. But at that range, spin drift always is anyway.
