Put a flat earthier into space

I was listening to James O'Brien's mystery hour on LBC today ( you can listen on catch-up on their website, I would provide a link but you need to sign in but it's free) at 02:24 someone phones in asking why is one end of the Panama canal higher than the other and locks are needed to compensate. After all, the sea level should be the same on the Pacific side as the Atlantic side. At 02:35 a caller answers that because of the centrifugal force caused by the spin of the earth ( Nukie's merry-go-round) the water is pushed up against the Pacific side (I think). At 02:44:30 Another caller adds that due to something called an equipotential surface, the different density of parts of the earth causes the water to have a different level in different places instead of lying flat like in a bath or a flat earth or forming a perfect curve like others are implying. It is a curve on our globe but a slightly bumpy one.

Payne just took a guess that made him look like he knows stuff :)

I also got an o-level in woodwork, which is surprising considering I was doing French Literature.

Any other bois in your class get that despite their travails?


GCSE French,when will you ever need that?
Well when you have trouble sleeping and you're on the internet at night and you wanna make a pun about wood (bois) and work (travails).

Bonsoir!

I've said previously that 'our purpose' is difficult to fathom and, of course, we may well have no purpose other than living and dying.

I think we all have a purpose whether it's any organism, tiny or larger. The end result is always the same. we procreate and then expire.

Why would the land we don't get to see possibly be our worst nightmare? Intriguing, but, as so often, you're not going to expand or explain?

It may or may not be. There may be land that's our paradise and land that could be our worst nightmare in terms of what may inhabit it or the actual climate of it not suiting us but maybe suiting something else.

I'm not sure why you mention the world being abundant in gold, silver, diamonds, etc. Does this have some relevance?

To me, yes. To you, no.

You've hinted at some extraterrestrial presence before but, as you say, that's another story which probably isn't worth going into here.

It's a preference. Those who want to delve into it will be interested. Those who see Earth as nothing more than a spinning ball with every avenue sort of covered will not see anything worth musing over.
I understand that and after all it is just musings.

When you say the earth is a dying cell but will be replaced by another cell, what does that mean? Will it be a straight replacement or fundamentally different?
Click to expand...
The cell will be likely similar just like a person dies and is replaced by another...especially siblings.
Think of cells in that same kind of form.

I take from your reply that you don't really have any ideas on how your world might offer us opportunities to live differently.

Define, live differently?

I haven't the equipment to prove it. At one tenth of a mile the curve would be 0.08 inches.

Over the length of a bath it would be 0.000008 inches.

You could go out into the middle of the ocean and the curve would be 0.000008 inches over a 5 feet stretch.

This is your inability to understand scale again. If the maths works for a large area you can break it down into smaller areas.
You could work out the curve for an area of the ocean the size a sink if you wanted.

When you can offer me your curve then I'll happily listen. If you can't then you cannot argue for it as being factual.

Einstein is proven right once again thanks to 16 year study of pulsars

@Nukehasslefan suppose this is a crock of shit as well🤷‍♂️

Imagine a 16 year study for nowt🤔

Maybe read the article and you might learn something for yourself 👌

It is part of his usual mantra. Nothing is valid except for the things you do yourself and prove yourself. Taking a balanced view such as look at people's motives, their reliability, how many independent sources have confirmed etc, it is all invalid. When you believe religiously in a conspiracy involving millions I can see why you would think like that. If millions can band together to trick you, then there are no independent sources.

So you are left with what you can prove yourself. But that is invalid too because our minds are conditioned to believe in the globe so it is all we can see. So what if maths and models back it up? All invalid and pointless. And do remember that if we do use maths, well maths has been handed on a plate to us from 'authority' (I've never figured out who this authority is), maths can't be proven so maths is also invalid.

So you take away all human knowledge and any learning we have ever done and all of a sudden we are all on the same level. Well except the elite few who have broken free from their brainwashing and can think freely. They are better than the rest of us sheep.

Put yourself in the mindset of a sad, uneducated paranoid where everything is a lie and they are the holders of truth and the patter of the majority of conspiracy theorists suddenly make sense.

All appeals to authority are bad, except when they back up the anti-globe position.

All maths is lies, except when it backs up the anti-globe position.

All science is lies, but the dodgy pseudoscience spouted by globe deniers that can't actually be proven (or indeed has been proven wrong) is the truth.

All experiments that can be repeated by others that prove the globe earth are nonsense, but ones that he can't tell us about or that have been shown to be flawed that supposedly back up the anti-globe position make sense, and because they make sense you don't actually have to do the experiments at all.

It's a bizarre closed-minded way of looking at the world, which is ironic because he claims to be the "open minded" one out of us all.

Tragic.

Pretty much this. It is why I find these loonies fascinating but I also feel quite sad for them.

Lit up like a beacon, which cement coloured rock can never do when you shine a bright light on it in complete darkness so it really stands out. Reflections just don’t work like that.

Unless it is a secondary reflection of the sun, reflecting off the dome in a way that light doesn’t reflect off a dome, looking completely different to the sun at every possible level, in exactly the way that reflections just don’t do. Now that is logical thinking.
