          There are some people who will deny truth even when it is irrefutable. They will even deny that 2+2=4. They don’t know what it equals, but they are sure it’s not 4. This is the power of brainwashing as shown in the comments below.

            Here is an audio clip from the video (1:20:06 and following). Its is less than 4 minutes. The clip is pepered with great quotes in regard to what is observed in the solar system and how the observations dont fit the “facts”. My favorite “It (the sun) does not coincide with the realities of the facts.”

            Clip is here:

            https://www.instructables.com/files/orig/FDW/VVBV/JFMTL429/FDWVVBVJFMTL429.mp3

            The theories put forth in the video do not adequately explain what is observed on earth and contradict most if not all obsevations of the solar system and universe as well as most astrophysics.

            The speaker actually puts forth the possibility that the moon is part of a different reality. Apparently the moon is a problem for the convex earth theory.

        go to any 10th floor seaside balcony and line up the balcony railing with the ocean – you will see the curvature of the earth with your own eyes

        but instead of doing something so simple even a 5 yr old could manage it, you parrot the ignorance of others

        stick with your fairy-tale religion dude, you simply lack the capacity to handle reality

      It is now only a matter of time before the lawyers realize that this is where the big money is and start circling like sharks. Governments have forced all citizens into a giant indoctrination program, making us pay for our own brainwashing. I want my money back with interest! Colleges across the world have been caught perpetrating a giant fraud and their partner in crime is the government.
      Organized religion will be included in the lawsuits. Let the real revolution begin!

        Why enrich PARASITIC Lawyers ?

        COMMERCIAL LIENS: A MOST POTENT WEAPON

        The Commercial Lien Strategy – Background
        Faced with corrupt lawyers and judges, no litigant can expect to win in court by simply playing defense. To beat them, you must be able to scare them. You must be able to make them respect you, and that means you must be able to take the offense — attack them personally.

        Unfortunately, judges, lawyers, and other government officials enjoy various levels of personal immunity provided by both law and “professional courtesy.” How do you sue a lawyer for malpractice? You hire another lawyer — if you can find one who’ll take the case. How do you sue an IRS agent for violating your Constitutional rights? Only with great difficulty. How you sue a judge for railroading you in court? You don’t.

        As a practical matter, private citizens can’t sue the President of the United States, a Governor, judge, or even an IRS agent for failing to obey or enforce the laws. If we try to sue in court to compel our government officials to obey the law and perform their lawful duties, the judges routinely ignore our petitions and laugh us out of court.

        Because legal and de facto immunities shield government personnel from being sued for committing crimes against the People, the public is legally disarmed, unable to aggressively sue the government or its agents and compel them to obey the Law. As a result, the public’s legal posture is fundamentally defensive: we try to duck, dodge, and hide in legal loopholes to defend ourselves against the government and the courts. We try to escape, evade, and avoid, but we seldom counter-attack against our antagonists, largely because we think there are no lawful weapons to do so. However, it appears that a powerful offensive legal weapon may now have been discovered, tested, and proven for common Citizens — the commercial lien. We don’t try to sue a government official for failing to perform his lawful duties. Instead, we simply file a lien that encumbers the official’s personal property and credit rating like a ton of bricks until he voluntarily satisfies our demand to perform his lawful duty, and we, in turn, voluntarily agree to excise the lien.

        How is it possible for the Moon to be anything other than full when the Sun is in the sky ??? But yet I have seen the Moon as quarter, half,and three quarters during the daytime so even if you think the ball theory is correct then why isn’t the part that’s not lit BLACK ??? And why when I zoom in with a Nikon P-900 camera can I see stars through the moon ??? Hmmmm…..

        • joseph deka

          Youare correct. The same observation from Europw. Half moon and Sun both high in the sky . Impossible not a fully lit moon. The system can not be explained by the critical observer. The sheep will believe anything. Seen foot’s of the moon that some sort of “cover” slides in front of the moon.Why can’t we simply find out the truth!!!

        • Wirkbot

          An object is 90 degrees off from the position of the light source relative to the observer = half moon. Simple. try it at home with a lamp and two balls if you have any.

        Andy,
        Where do you think the Pythagorean Theorem came from? That is the problem. The math we were taught does not fit what we can see with our own eyes. You have to actually look for yourself though.

      • Paulp

        Andy you need to quit insulting those that believe the Bible. Most Christians don’t go on about flat earth because there is nothing in it about it. The Bible is not fairy tale and only fools or those that don’t know better would think that so you are one of the 2. At this point in your life you don’t deserve to know God. Your attitude towards Him is going to lead you to destruction but you don’t believe that do you? That’s one reason those who have to learn the hard way are fools. I promise you you will beg Jesus to forgive your ignorance but when you see him at the throne judgement you’ll know that at that point there is not nothing even God can do because what it takes is something you must do while you are here. But it’s not anything you have to worry about because you are spook smart huh? Get ready to give a bunch of excuses but know that you’ll have not a one. It will all be on you

      Funny how water is the standard for a level. Perfectly flat and level. The paradigm of lifelong indoctrination is hard to penetrate, but the stars rotate in a circular motion overhead when time lapse photography is used, rather than pass by and reappear later from the other side as they should if we were round and spinning. Planes never have to adjust their trajectory to accommodate a curve, but must stay level. It takes no less time to travel east, than it does west….why is that, if we’re on a globe spinning? The globe solar system paradigm is a stronghold in the minds of humanity. We’ve all been taught that gravity is a “fact” when in fact, it has never been more than a theory to explain how water could possibly “curve” around a globe. The whole issue infuriates people because no one likes feeling duped or hoodwinked. But the rabbit hole is deeper than anyone could possibly imagine.

      Proof That Our World is Not a Moving Globe : Edward Hendrie

      * *

      The Greatest Lie on Earth: Proof That Our World Is Not a Moving Globe

      Paperback – 17 Jan 2016 by Edward Hendrie

      This BOOK reveals the mother of all conspiracies. It sets forth biblical proof and IRREFUTABLE EVIDENCE that will cause the scales to fall from your eyes and reveal that the world you thought existed is a myth. The most universally accepted scientific belief today is that the earth is a globe, spinning on its axis at a speed of approximately 1,000 miles per hour at the equator, while at the same time it is orbiting the sun at approximately 66,600 miles per hour. All of this is happening as the sun, in turn, is supposed to be hurtling through the Milky Way galaxy at approximately 500,000 miles per hour. The Milky Way galaxy, itself, is alleged to be racing through space at a speed ranging from 300,000 to 1,340,000 miles per hour. What most people are not told is that the purported spinning, orbiting, and speeding through space has never been proven. In fact, every scientific experiment that has ever been performed to determine the motion of the earth has proven that the earth is stationary. Yet, textbooks ignore the scientific proof that contradicts the myth of a spinning and orbiting globe. Christian schools have been hoodwinked into teaching heliocentrism, despite the clear teaching in the bible that the earth is not a sphere and does not move. This book reveals the evil forces behind the heliocentric deception, and why scientists and the Christian churches have gone along with it.

      See, we must feel compassion for those that are dead set in their opinionations.
      We should debate subjects, offering to increase and sustain the health and welfare of those around us, regardless of their ideals or religious background.
      We are all human beings,are we not?…well, some of us act like animals, some of us treat each other, worse than animals, but apparently it is easier to ridicule and lay blame.
      I feel sorry for those that are convinced,and refuse to discuss ANYTHING in a healthy manner….
      The solution is simple…use these so called “flat earth” and “climate change” THEORIES as guideline for i.q. testing!…use them as a determination for basic intelligence….once they figure out its too hot,they would have fallen off the face of the earth :lol: :lol: :lol:

      The Coriolis Effect

      https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i2mec3vgeaI

      An effect whereby a mass moving in a rotating system experiences a force (the Coriolis force ) acting perpendicular to the direction of motion and to the axis of rotation. On the earth, the effect tends to deflect moving objects to the right in the northern hemisphere and to the left in the southern and is important in the formation of cyclonic weather systems.

      • Anonymous

        Test your Coriolis effect. Toss a rock straight up above your head and stand in place. Let’s see if it falls to the right or comes down on your head. Report back after you wake up.

        • Wirkbot

          Oh, A Coriolis doubter. There is a gravity doubter who commented also.

          When I drain water in a sink it swirls the same direction as the hurricanes turn. This is true.

    • MediaMike

      Completely idiotic. I wish everyone could go up 200 miles and look down. Earth is round, just like every mass that exceeds a quintillion tons or so. The thin blue line is awesome, and the motivation for my song Born In AHue Of Blue. Once you know, you can never un-know.

      • Andoron

        MediaMike, you do not even need to go that high. Go to Colorado Springs and stand on top of Pikes Peak. You can even take the COG Railroad up to the top of the mountain. When you stand there you clearly see the earth curving in all directions. A ROUND earth. These people pushing the flat-earth agenda are victims of Jesuit whores who are trying to dumb down society to the point they will be unable to see their chains.
        It’s also why they wage nonstop war on the Bible. The Bible refutes everything these wicked men stand for. Ironically, the Bible teaches the earth is round. Psalm 19 for example talks about the circuit the sun takes around the earth. When you read it in context and look carefully at each words definition. What is being described is a sun that shines its face on a portion of the earth turns. Which is why one side of the earth will have daylight and the other will be dark. Even night and day show clearly a round earth. I’ve talked to my son in Korea and right now it’s 12:41 AM, dark as dark gets; I am sitting in CST 10:42 AM, a bright sunny day.

          My personal favorite is Jupiter. The big red spot goes round and round due to the rotating of the large spherical planet. The red spot has been continuously observed for 188 years, since 1830.

      Geostationary Satellite:

      There are satellites that orbit the earth that are in a low orbit and take 90 minutes or more to make a complete orbit. The higher the altitude of the orbit the longer one orbit takes until if the orbit is high enough it takes 24 hours for one orbit. If the otbit is eqitorial (around the middle of the sphere) then you end up with a satellite that appears to earth based observation to not move as if hanging on nothing (sky hooks?).

      Anyone with dish / satellite tv knows about this.

      Spins like a top…

      If you live above the arctic cirle you know all about having weeks during the summer when the sun does not set. It just apears to move sideways around the horizon while those of us further south still get sun rises and sun sets every day. yep. The earth is sphericle and has a wobble as it spins like a top. Tops wobble to.

    • Wirkbot

      I watched the video.

      Experiment 1: The images with the high powered telescope still show the hull of the boat is not visible (Fraud).

      Expeiment 2: The images they can see at great distances are mountains (Fraud).

      Experiment 4: 7.8 meter 95% GPS accuracy (about 30 feet). The researchers are looking for a variance that is smaller than the tollerance (fraud).

      Experiment 5: The hight of the water in the dam would be at the same altitude at any point. Thier experiment is based on a false premis (fraud).

      Due to the fraudelent nature of the above experiments we will not take thier word for it that the math and the exicition of the other experiments are accurate.

      One guy on the video says that we cannot trust what we are seeing through telescopes (all those round planets).

      “Gravity does not exist”. Yet Newton’s formulas work including this one:

      The force of gravity is directly proportional to the product of the two masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance of separation.

      Newtonian physics correctly explains the motion of the round planets around the round sun.

      • Wirkbot

        Typo:

        execution of the other experiments…

        • Wirkbot

          According to the video, the earth does not rotate. Therefore it assumes that the sun, stars, and all the planets are moving every 24 hours around us. They admit that the issue with lack of sun sets during part of the year near the poles are unexplained.

          Apparently the observable does not match the theory. You should check out the language for yourself (last 15 minutes). Perhaps the sun does not exist or it is a different reality (I kid you not).

          Earlier in the video we were told that lower altitude satellites move about the somewhat flat surface of the earth like the motion of circling helicopters. Geostationary satellites… Well, they don’t explain how they stay there. Both types, we are told stay up there due primarily to the earth’s magnetic field.

          We also learn that there is an undiscovered continent they are sure exists. They found dust an pollen to prove it (again, I am not kidding).

            The helicopter terminology was mine but check out the animation an explanation starting at 1:10:57. By the way, the surface of the flat earth is supposed to be surrounded by a high wall of ice (Antarctica?) so I guess that is why you have to have an undiscovered continent. You would need to explain all the Ice within the arctic circle. There must be a continent beyond all the ice.

            I would like to hear the physics of why there is a high wall of ice around the edges. I sure that would be simple in comparison to how the entire universe moves every 24 hours in relation to the non rotating planet.

        Self deluded bullshit . .

      I’m not here to ridicule, though I am skeptical about the flat, or convex earth model. How do satellites and GPS function in the context of a flat earth? I ask, because I had a colleague who designed satellites (should I presume he is either a liar, or privy to information I am not?) and I have studied areas, such as orbital mechanics, that are employed in the field of aerospace engineering.

      Also, has anyone offered up a comprehensive cosmology that works with a flat earth model? I have seen some material about the flat earth, but none of it was very technical and I’d like to see a direct mathematical exposition elucidating how it functions. Are there any implication of these flat earth theories that can be tested in order to provide empirical data?

      Lastly, I’m guessing there is a tacit aspect of this theory, in which I must assume that there is a massive and pervasive conspiracy to conceal the reality of our world from the public. I’m wondering why this is. Why did some in the ancient world, such as Eratosthenes, determine the earth was round and measure its circumference producing a number similar to the accepted figure today? According to this theory, is the true nature of other planetary bodies also being concealed?

      I ask these questions in earnest, and not to debunk. I’m very curious and would love to receive some edifying explanations on this topic. I have investigated some material independently, but the sources often seem less than reliable.

        Any references to legitimate written sources would be appreciated. I’m probably in the minority, but I don’t like getting my information from videos or documentaries, I prefer to read.

      According to the demonstration with the half sphere lens placed over the picture of the convex earth which is supposed to represent the dome of atmosphere over the earth, The day / night cycle is accomplished by the sun moving in a circle over the earth.

      Air makes a poor lens du to having refractive index of only slightly over one as compared to glass with a refractive index of about 1.5. Air could never distort the image of the sun as shown in the demo but even if it could, the sun would need to be extremely close (thousands of miles, not millions). Also the sun would appear so large it would take up a huge portion of the sky at high noon. Perhaps more than half. Last of all the image would be to out of focus and distorted that details like sun spots could not be seen.

      Nope.

      Then there lunar eclipses.

      The full moon is on the night side of the globe and the sun is on the day side and the shadow of the earth temporarily covers the moon.

      Here is an audio clip from the video (1:20:06 and following). Its is less than 4 minutes. The clip is pepered with great quotes in regard to what is observed in the solar system and how the observations dont fit the “facts”. My favorite “It (the sun) does not coincide with the realities of the facts.”

      Clip is here:

      Spread it around.

      The theories put forth in the video do not adequately explain what is observed on earth and contradict most if not all obsevations of the solar system and universe as well as most astrophysics.

      I think their model with the lens over the theoretical earth should have shown what the light source representing the sun was doing to produce the desired results on the map. The sun and the moon would have to be the same size both are circling overhead and both are incredibly close. Then they need to explain somthing as simple as a lunar elipse wuth their model. They can’t. Bases on the obsevation of the moon and it’s movement the speaker concludes that the moon might be part of a different reality.

      • Wirkbot

        Perhaps the earth is the center of the universe and the sun, moon, stars, and galaxies move in a circle around a fixed point (north pole / geographic center of the convex earth) every 24 hours.
