Sure, you can post pictures of the planet which are SUPPOSEDLY taken from space, but how can you prove they are real. They could easily be faked. And just because you THINK you flew all the way around the world on an airplane doesn't mean it happened. Did YOU actually fly the plane yourself? NO, a pilot did, and he's a part of the Zionist conspiracy to keep you thinking that the world is round.

Nice. Too bad all those creationists seem to be missing your point.

on the concern of a flat earth.. Revelation 7:a million assumes a flat earth because the verse refers to angels status on the “4 corners” of the earth. actual, the reference is to the cardinal guidelines: north, south, east, and west. similar terminology is often used immediately as quickly immediately of the solar's growing and placing, even even with the undeniable fact that the earth, not the solar, is doing the shifting. Bible writers used the “language of visual charm,” purely as human beings continuously have. with out it, the meant message will be awkward at brilliant and probably not understood obviously. A literal translation of interest 26:10 is "He defined a circle upon the face of the waters, till the day and nighttime come to an end." A round earth is likewise defined in Isaiah 40:21-22 - "the circle of the earth." Proverbs 8:27 also exhibits a round earth through use of the be conscious circle (e.g., New King James Bible and New American commonplace Bible). when you're overlooking the sea, the horizon seems as a circle. This circle on the horizon is defined in interest 26:10. The circle on the face of the waters is between the proofs that the Greeks used for a round earth. yet the following it really is recorded in interest, a lengthy time period formerly the Greeks got here across it! it is an extremely good question you've there! :)

Where in the Bible does it say the Earth is flat? I will give you $50 if you can quote a passage from the Bible which clearly states the whole Earth is flat.
I can't prove or disprove anything for certain - I can't even prove that I am not a squid smoking cigars and using a PC made of cheese to post this answer - I think I am not but I can't really prove I am not (I could be an insane squid believing myself human).
If you believe the world is flat then have fun with that but be careful unless you fall off the edge.

Didn't the early navigators figure out that the world was a sphere?
Also, aren't some maps adjusted for the difference of plotting a sphere onto two-dimensional paper?
Not much of an answer I realize, but I think there is some basic navigation that would be impossible if the world was flat. Also, every other planet in our solar system is spherical...why not our's as well!?

Why don't you take some time off work and try to fall OFF the world. If the world was flat, this would be possible to do. The only way you can prove it to yourself is to do the experiment yourself. Pack lots of sandwiches, you are in for quite a walk!!!

Don't you have neighbors to spy on when drive up to their house or something. Why don't you worry about import things like your wife having an affair because every night you talk to her of the earth being flat. O.K., I'll give the benefit of the doubt and say the earth is flat..so freaking what. I still have bills to pay, work everyday and take care of your wife since i'm having an affair with her.

Walk to the edge of the world - or where you think the edge of the world will be. Tell nobody of where you are going, and let nobody know why you are going there, so that nobody will ever feel inclined to meddle in your holy quest.
Best of all, just make sure never to talk to anybody, or to see anybody at all, period.
And when you come back from your fact finding tour of the flat earth, assuming you haven't fallen off the edge of it, tell us all about it.

Sails on ships disappear over the horizon. So does the sun. But that darn Zionist conspiracy must be pulling some strings I guess you'd say. :)

actually the Bible[actually God in the book of Isaiah--8th century Before Christ] says
21 Have you not known?
Have you not heard?
Has it not been told you from the beginning?
Have you not understood from the foundations of the earth?
22 It is He who sits above the CIRCLE of the earth,
And its inhabitants are like grasshoppers,
Who stretches out the heavens like a curtain,
And spreads them out like a tent to dwell in.
23 He brings the princes to nothing;
He makes the judges of the earth useless.
refers to the world as circular and since the jewish culture of the time probably didn't specify for 3 dimensional as spherical since Pythagoras wasn't around until like 569-475 BC this probability seems accurate.
thank you sir for your question and God bless you and guide you as he keeps you close to His heart.

But why on earth would there be a conspiracy to make the people believe the earth is round when it is flat? That doesn't make sense to me.

DUMB!!!!! The earth is so obviously spherical that Eratosthenes COMPUTED the equatorial circumference of the earth around 200 B.C. The catholic church declared it to be flat many years later.
