If we all run to one edge of the planet, will it tip over.

Map, Globe, you cant have it both ways. when you travel you dont take a globe, thats because youl get lost. a map is more geographicly correct.

The earth is not flat, it is spherical my dear. There are proofs to support that it is spherical. Like Circumnavigation, Rotation, Revolution, Eclipses and when a ship is approaching the port you first see the hull.

that is a straightforward reaction, because the bible became supposedly the 'word of god' and consequently infallible. The bible suggested, in case you compromise for the translations, that the earth became flat and that the sunlight revolved round it. Galileo Galileo contradicted those 'information' and became harrassed and punished by employing the Roman Catholic Church, his works were confiscated and hidden away as being blasphemous ... The Roman Catholic Church relented a even as later. hey - the earth is round, ya understand! AND that is fairly older than 6'000 years! Many different such information deliver the bible spinning downwards to crash and burn as being precisely what that is - an uninformed saga written by employing historic guy, who knew little or no of the information of physics, geography and fairly historic heritage, for historic mankind. that's now 2007. have you ever realised?

Because the Earth is really a giant pancake that fell behind someone's stove and grew various cultures of life - us. We really exist on a much larger planet and eventually, when the giant cleans behind his stove, we're all going to be ******.

You will have to read Thomas Friedman's book of the NY Times. It has been a best seller for the past year. It's very good!
