Agree. I just 'ard' :doh:

0:45 seconds in? I think its his graphics card and program :chuckle: Not making fun of him, we just can't be jumping to the 'first' conclusion all the time. 1:10 We have to do what is called oversampling to get pictures. To get Jupiter? A computer has to pass over the image hundreds...

Its interesting (linked to about page 306). For me? I want to see how the guy is understanding before I deconstruct either of our views. In a sense, It is good science because it is trying to see how another person sees science. That's how we move forward, even if one theory is completely...

btw, any icon on TOL, if you hover over it, it will tell you how to make it. For instance if you hover over this :banana: it says 'banana' To make it or any icon? Just put :: on either side when typing the word and the icon will show up for you :amr: :e4e:

A compass would work wherever you have a magnetic point that pulls your metal needle. That said, we are on a tilt so a globe that sets on an angled arm is accurate. A perpendicular stand is inaccurate. A lot of 'navigation' education can and could mess anybody up as far as directions are...

As far as the 'compass' you are correct. A digital GPS? Not a problem. In a nutshell, you are calling the navigation tool (compass) on the carpet. A compass doesn't do the work for you, you are right. You have to recalculate from south to north. There are better tools today than a...

No need to respond, but you can if you want to do so. :e4e: North does meet south, if that is what you are saying :idunno: Btw, for the scripture thread, that is a huge 'globe' verse to me: South and North meet. East and West never do, NOR end if you are on a globe, it goes on forever...

You'll have to unpack this too. I've no idea what you are saying. I can fly around the globe starting north, south, east, or west. Did you realize a map isn't accurate? If you went to fly from Cape Horn to the Cape of Good Hope, it isn't as far as depicted on a map. What does that...

It is (imho) as good for those of us who believe earth a sphere. It is like that first post I gave over in the scripture thread: Most cannot argue against a flat earth because they, themselves, have been indoctrinated instead of knowing the actual answers. I was laughing, one video of a...

In some ways, the flat-earth model by description, is also incorrect. If you look at even the concepts drawn, it isn't a 'flat' earth but a domed disc and not even shaped enough to call it a 'hemisphere (half ball). IOW, even the 'model' flat earthers give. Probably for the other thread...

I'm pretty sure I don't grasp the entirety of imagery. Someone might tell me God is the Sun from this verse! :noway: literal vs. figurative, correct? Odd theories will abound, God doesn't have wings either. Psalm 91:4 A conspiracy 'winged god' theory would about destroy me. I'd cry...

One more point: Try this in your house with a flashlight and a globe. This guy is wrong.

Also, in his theory, the sun isn't large enough to keep our planet from freezing. It is too tiny to even give a sunburn, according to his theory.

He doesn't seem to understand the tilt of the earth. The poles are not perpendicular to the sun. Note another phenomena this guy didn't pay attention to in his own video: The sun moves on an arc across the sky, not an angular up/down.

You are importing your 'up/down' model from two-dimensional thinking. You aren't a two-dimensional being, you are 3 dimensional. Flat-earth comes from a 2 dimensional mindset and understanding. There is no slam here, it is just the difference for 'understanding' the contexts. In the 3...

Ooops, Judge Rightly (sorry I confuse you and Right Divider sometimes because you both are right, er, 'right')

Somewhat tongue-in-cheek. The curvature seen in the video, I believe, is due to the windshield. When the sunsets, it leaves a curvature on the horizon.

Right Divider just answered this▲ above ▲

btw, atmosphere inside a square or globular vehicle (think AMC Pacer/Gremlin :rotfl: ) is the same principle[s]. The atmosphere works with either the flat or globe model. Often, one of the hardest things for a flat-earther to grasp, is applying physics from a 2-D model to a 3-D one. "Up"...
