Put a flat earthier into space

I read his posts as an attempt to imply drawing a true right angle is impossible/ extremely difficult to achieve. Now, this is a further attempt to deflect acceptance of maths/ fundamental aspects of how we prove theories. Rather than accept the right angle (with an amount of acceptable tolerance) and progress with the debate in a positive manner.
He is progressively abstract with his deflections. Or should I say ridiculous?

That is exactly what was happening. It's the whole 'but why' forever and basically never accepting anything approach. Well Dome Earth is exempt from that process.

It's magic Angels.

But can you prove it?

Yes, but instead of opening the Bible and actually reading something, I just put it in my empty bathtub and confirmed that it stayed still, which it wouldn't if it were sitting on an angle. That means they're all inside it. That's how you do science, you overeducated zombie.

That's a spirit level not a spirit.

Obtuse possibly?
 
Once, when I was a kid at school during maths I was acting up a bit so I was made to stand in the corner facing the wall.

I complained to the teacher that I was cold standing there.

He said how can you be cold? It's 90° in that corner.



I said because there's no guarantee that this corner is 90°. What's your reference point for the external wall?
