Leaving out his benefit fraud, intimidation, assault, prohibition breaches etc etc He's a fucking tit. Sadly he isn’t the only one, there are loads of them on the IOM …….

Perhaps a hospital order? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We even cut up the continents and put them back together again to show where they all fitted. yes, but nothing 'floated' like a boat does, it could also be said that africa broke away from britain.

There was once a single land mass from which the world as we know it originated, Pangea (?). There is an animation at the Manx Museum showing the continental drift (if that the right term?). No, nothing floated like a boat, but it is more easily described in those terms to kids, perhaps? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Power Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 So it sounds like Africa broke away from the Isle of Man, the mother country? Thank god they took their wildlife with them! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he's confusing "floating" with "drifting" as in continental drift. At one point he said that the theory is the Isle of Man broke off and floated to between GB and Ireland and the stopped. Not realising it's still going on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The word was (could have been) part of a bigger something else that exploded. Over time gravitational force, aided by other stuff, is sorting it to make it round-ish. This of course would make the world originally erm, flat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which I suppose is what the bible is all about. Long before the masses could read and all that. So a way of describing to them what it's all about, to settle their inquisitive minds. By who? Who knows... It's just odd how some take the bible as being literal, and others dismissing the bible in its entirety.

I'd also like to point out that the likelihood of a pupil recounting, verbatim, one of the lessons of the day, to a parent is probably zero. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How true! If I ever asked my two how school was that day, a grumpy grunt would be the response. It was almost like I had crossed the line into their world, how very dare I! (Unless there was an issue, of course, and then I would be expected to be right on top of all the aspects and nuances immediately and without explanation.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A flat earther! 😉 Surely the earth is round due to a combination of: accretion of planetary debris and space dust; spinning due to magnetic core; and gravitational pull inward? But you’re right, it is “round-ish”: it’s flattened at the poles so it’s not a sphere - it’s an oblate spheroid… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
