"Flat Earther" finally admits the Earth isn't flat

[DD86]

In the old days of Copernicus, it was the Jesuit Order that backed him. If you know a little about those Jesuits, it is not hard to doubt that there is something fishy why they suddenly changed theit mind on the flat earth. Befor, you committed blasphemy if you denied the flat earth, Death was on you. Nowadays one might be called a traitor to the world for sustaining the flat earth theory?

People are easily influenced, look at religion, and are afraid to become paria's. The fact that flat earthers do not ridicule their opponents says in fact a lot. People with different ideas were always laughed at and even risked death.

Don't think for a minute that what you were told is the truth. No matter how much evidence there is aginst a moonlanding, people still believe it happened.

Yes, did it and you believe it then I have a bridge to sell to you.

Not to long ago this forum was dominated by the vaxxers and even though there is more and more solid prove that it is in fact a poison, many still believe it the jab and can't wait to get another death shot.

Silly people everywhere. Can call me silly, I don't care.

Sleep tide.

I guess the guy could have spent the money on a trip on a low-orbit space tourism flight and figured it out too.

WitsitCampanella is a shill indeed, a whit as well. He didn't provide a full blown anti proof.

Ans about the cost, wow a whole 30,000$. Divide that by probably a full airplane and you have a cheap trip. Don't forget that the elite powers (who control the Artic) don't want you to talk about a flat earth while the UN prove it in their Avatar.

Or just go outside on a clear day and observe the sky as the earth rotates eastward and take note that the sun is stationary while the earth is spinning in circles.

   I now understand how the staunch opposition on AN and elsewhere have difficulty following the so-called "anti vax narrative"  .  Why , it must be about as baffling as that video was to me . 

 

PS :   this is not me taking a "position"  on the subject ....... just claiming my ignorance at this point in time and leaving it till another time if/when i read up a bit .

I always just figured I was the center of the universe !   Pfffttt .   Found out there were millions who thought it was them .   

Oh boy....... millions of stars all sitting in chairs playing with this machine with a screen.

Indeed, my dear rumak, and I always appreciate your humility (a few people here would be well-advised to follow that example) and also your openness to alternative views, even if not necessarily convinced by them, always with a sharp wit and humour.

I knew there was a chance someone who actually knows what they are talking about might turn up 

 

You are absolutely correct about the historical and political context surrounding the switch to heliocentrism. It was politically and ideologically motivated, and "science" was subverted in order to achieve that goal. That's all. The pursuit of truth had nothing to do with it

 

I will likely get 10 laughing emojis for this post, and that is absolutely expected and normal.

 

Heliocentrism is a belief. A very deeply rooted one, too. In fact it is one of the first things a human learns after birth. Once a world view has been modelled on a belief, it becomes extremely difficult, I would say virtually impossible even, to break free from it and accept a challenge to it, regardless of how many absurdities and contradictions are presented (shoutout to @Tippaporn for helping me understand how fundamental this issue is).

 

There are several sources one can consult to learn about The Reformation, the Jesuits, Copernicus, paganism, sun-worshipping and the political endeavour to impose heliocentrism, however I will recommend the documentary Heliosorcery, which lays it all out clearly and factually.

And we're not allowed to go to Antartica (but that is potentially for another thread, though the topics are related).
