Uhtred Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 150 pages just to illustrate that we share our not flat Earth with individuals “discussing” that perhaps it is flat after all is altogether disappointing eh?

Nah, all fake apparently. As with all evidence provided, it's all manipulated. On the one hand this guy proclaims to have not taken any stance short of not being offered any evidence good enough for his standards (which seem quite low tbh) He claims to be all about peace and love and the freedom to express views yet as soon as evidence is offered up he belittles it and just gets plain nasty. He either has a massive self perception issue or he's simply a troll. I'll bet the latter, and an untalented, nasty one at that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Having said that, zero evidence is an environment in which PGW is very much at home). As you’ve pointed out China, the quasi-religious zealotry being displayed is actually evident in PGWs bone-headed refusal to test his belief in flatness by applying any of the 101 ways you an others have suggested/offered. Freud himself described religious belief as “obsessive, compulsive neurosis”. Various studies have demonstrated links between religious fervour and social exclusion, anxiety, feelings of infallibility and psychosis. Much as it’s tempting to mock the nonsense spouted by PGW (I’m not suggesting you have China) there’s a growing body of evidence in his (seemingly increasingly) inchoate postings that he’s an individual to be pitied. "those among us who are prepared to accept that the Earth is spherical" but i thought you KNOW it's spherical? "his claim.".......what claim? " his belief in flatness"" Belief in "flatness"!!!!! wtf are you even on about. please provide proof to support. try reading the thread first to see if you can find any ? if you are going to attempt to make (false) accusations against me, you need to be able to provide these things to back them up. otherwise you are behaving as a bigoted zealot. "nonsense spouted by PGW" ....................please provide one example of "nonsense spouted " here by me, and explain how it's "nonesense" in any relation to the op or any comment in this entire thread. because if i read any of yours they are all nonsenical in relation to this thread and the op. like alot of others who come here to chat shit in the science thread. where it's all about proof. do you have any you absolute wally? instead of desperately trying to attach a strawman to defend your beliefs. "seemingly increasingly) inchoate postings"...........proof please mud slinger. just one little tiny bit would do, maybe you could even articulate your point as well? is that possible or must you continue to make false claims, in order to defend your religion? what happened to the scientific method when you wrote lies about me?

It is based on repeated testing and a scientific/engineering understanding of a well understood system. It is the same with the shape of the Earth. Repeated observation of how the stars move as you do or don’t change your position on the Earth, sunrise and sunset times, the height of the sun at midday, the dip of the horizon, the observation that you can see further the higher you are above the horizon, Foucault pendulums, surveying, satellite observations etc etc etc. There is nothing religious about understanding that the world is a globe. Our continued finessing of the Earth’s shape as observations from astronomy, surveying and geodesy is a prime example of how science understands its limits and improves the accuracy of its measurements over time. The people being religious are the flat Earthers clinging to their views in contradiction to the evidence. As Tim Minchin put it: Science adjusts its views based on what's observed. Religious Faith is the denial of observation so that belief can be preserved. Done any observations yet, Paul. got an understanding of the engineering of the stars have you china? beenup there with gerry doin experiments have you mate? x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
