Put a flat earthier into space

Makes no sense.
It still isn't going the opposite way, so what are we dealing with?
A mirror image or something?

If you are on earth and watching Mars, it 'Appears' to stop and go the other direction.

That's because the Earth is orbiting faster.

Imagine being on Earth in that diagram, look where Mars is, and as Earth moves, you see Mars position is ahead of us to start with and moving forward, but then we catch it up and then it ends up behind us.

To make it simpler. when you are in a car on the motorway. You can see a car in front driving forward, but as you're going faster you catch it up and that car relatively moves behind you, even though it's still going forward.

Ok, so it doesn't stop and go the other way it just gets overtaken by the spin of the Earth you believe in. Am I right on how you're explaining this?

So, can you tell me how you observed this?

He has just told you and explained it perfectly to you. Stop being a wind up.

He already has answered and you cant understand it. Thats your fault, no one else's. You are either unable to comprehend what people are saying or on a total wind up.

He is either on an elaborate wind up, not interested in the subject enough to read into it or not the full shilling.

Fair enough if he wasn't convinced about the Big bang but this is brilliant.

Nope, not in the way it's consistently described by most people.

1. I do not believe we live on a flat disc.

2. I do not believe we live on any shape that has turtles and elephants holding it up.


I believe we potentially live inside a cell.
I think we live in a decaying cell.
This cell holds the stuff we need as bacteria, among other bacteria, which is all I believe we are.

Like an ant farm, monitored and maintained by a third party entity?

I don’t agree with any of your views here but I am genuinely not taking the piss, I am interested in your opinions.

Ok, when you look over a circle, the Earth you believe as a globe you would see a drop of 8 inches for the first mile. A curve down and away from you of 8 inches (approx)From the same vantage point to 2 miles you square the inches per mile, meaning 8 inches x2 miles then squared it is 8 inches x 2 miles x 2 miles. 8 x 2 x 2 =32 inches.
From the same vantage point you started with you now look out to 3 miles. 8 inches per mile x 3 then squared means you are looking at 8 inches x 3 x 3...... 8 inches x 3 =24 x 3 = 72 inches or 6 feet drop from your starting point.

You are always squaring the distance All you are doing is squaring, so when you get to 30 miles it's 8 inches x 30 miles then squared, meaning 8 inches x 30 miles = 240 inches, then squared which means it's X by itself, meaning 8 x 30 = 240 inches x 30 = 7200 inches divided by 12 inches = 600 feet drop from your starting point.

And so on.

Well that seem like absolute rubbish tbh.
If it's 8 inches after a mile, it's not going to be 32 inches after two.
Why do you have to square it?

I'm not sure about an ant farm or the likes, more like cells among similar cells of a bigger organism, maybe.
Basically.

Just think of a lot of Earth like cells in a liquid of whatever make up that is.
Cells close together but impossible for us to see due to our vision not being capable of seeing past the inner membrane which acts like a mirror against the outer dark liquid that we get told is a vacuum of space...which, if you really think about it, is impossible in itself regardless of my thoughts on Earth.

Could both arguments not be true? Could our entire universe not be inside of one of your ‘cells’ ?

If you look level over a curve then your second mile is not going to be the same as your first from your immediate vantage point.
Look it up, t doesn't come from flat Earthers.

It basically is. Our so called universe.
What we see is told to us as being our universe but what we see is all inside the cell we are in. In my opinion of course.

Buy a telescope. I got mine from the middle aisle in Adli.
