Put a flat earthier into space

The question was what magical force would make the water cascade off a globe? Your reply is not an answer, it's another dodge.
If you were able to pour water onto an earth-sized globe, what force would cause it to cascade off in the same manner as pouring water onto a balloon or your spinning tennis ball?

Atmospheric pressure upon the dense mass of water would make it cascade off the ball. Try it with a ball and pour water on it.

But you'll argue for gravity holding it on, so tell me where on that ball the force is to keep all that water on the ball from the top and all around it, plus under it. I'll leave the rotation out for a second as you explain the force.
Also explain how the tiny atmosphere of your globe stays on it and does not go into your space vacuum.

I do agree with him on one thing: nobody has to engage with him. The fundamental problem is that he has a belief and nothing more. Therefore trying to counter that with scientific explanation or even logic doesn't work. He obviously enjoys the 'debate' which I suppose we all do or we wouldn't entertain him. I think he's bat shit crazy but harmless.

The problem is his type aren't harmless. They are them same closed minded people who spread falsehoods on vaccines and believe all the divisive stuff in the papers which leads to things like Brexit being argued for along the lines of 'foreigners are to blame for everything' His type of mindset is dangerous if spread. It's a total lack of rational thought which when in the general public leads to people somehow thinking the likes of Trump and Boris Johnson are good leaders.

If you do not physically know the truth of something and you argue it as a truth then you are appealing to what you believe is the authority of that in order to argue it.
That does not make something untrue no more than it makes something true.
So, basically I'm using it as a fact based on that scenario. You can only agree with that out of honesty.


No issue.

No issue.

Yep and much of it serves a purpose.
The issue comes down to what serves a purpose of factual info and what serves a purpose of stories of fiction. They can all serve a purpose for all or some.
You can revise and recite anything you choose to study. You can then go to a quiz or even mastermind and relay that back as questions are asked on what you studied.
You may get all questions correct.
What you studied may have been Harry Potter from start to present/finish.
Does it make you a genius? Does it make you a scientist? Does it make you more clever than someone who revised and recited another story?
But that's fiction, right?
Revise ancient history or go back to the writing of the dinosaurs and how they were wiped out by a big asteroid and so on and so on.
Does this make you a scientist or a genius or any more clever than the Harry Potter reciter?
Does it make you more clever than someone who simply observes nature and pieces bits and pieces?

Knowledge is the ability to soak up teachings, whether they're based on truth's or based on fiction or potentials/theories.
Those who choose to absorb one thing over another without knowing a truth are no wiser to a truth than the one not absorbing any of it.

And you can do it and see the results.

But that's how cakes are made. It just comes down to particular cakes that have been tried and tested and we can all p[rove it to ourselves.

I agree. But then again everything is not on the table.

It depends on what you mean by, hard to comprehend. Go back to the stories above.

We aren't tiny compared to ants or flies but we are compared to Earth or a giraffe or an elephant...etc.
As for significance. All bacteria has a significance. That's all we are.

You have absolutely no idea how old this Earth is. The story told to you only offers you that knowledge as your potential truth.
You exist. You think. You do and you expire. That's it. In my opinion.

It can and it can make your thoughts on your worth become pointless. But it depends on how you want to view it.
Your value to this Earth is exactly the same as any other human being or insect or piece of matter...etc.

Anything you don;t understand you try to understand it if it interests you.
You'll never understand most things in life. Nor will I or anyone else.

What is succeeding in school?
Here's a question for anyone. Please jump- in to answer even if it's just this one question.

Question: Do you know of a loser at school who left school to become well off and look to have much more than you have even though you classed letters on certificates as your success?
Be totally honest, because I know lots.

You are your own university of your own life. You're an open university.

And we all do.

Aerial photography. Planes do a decent job of it and once it's turned from CGI of a globe model, you then get to see the height your photography was at and the zoom in to a certain height above your chosen area.
No space satellites required.
What do you think your space satellites do...wait till the clouds disperse before zooming in?
Or do you think a plane below them is more ideal.
Think on it.

I didn't mention satellites or CGI. Just aerial photography and as you said, planes do a decent job of it. Images obscured by cloud are replaced with images taken on clearer days. It's an ongoing process, not trickery or deception.
No idea why you need to bring CGI and height into it, aerial photography shows the coastlines and shapes of landmasses. The whole Earth has been covered. It is not in dispute other than in your fantasy world.
Think on it.

No mate, the dome is alive with the sound of music/light (same thing) but I do think the aliens live in the gid big hole. Just my musing like so it has to be true, right🤷‍♂️👌

Seems to be that anything you can think up is true. But this big hole really intrigues me. Granted I haven’t read all his/her/their/it’s shit posts but I’m on board now.
Come on the big hole theory. Got Nobel written all over it.🤯

I accept that aerial photography is not deception.
But the CGI globe is until that aerial photography comes into reality.

When you type in an area you see the globe model turn to that area and zoom in under cartoon images until it becomes realistic visual sight from plane height.

This is why you never see your area as it is, just as it was months earlier.

Nice one. I knew you'd realise it's not curved.

Yes but he appears to specialise in flat Earth which in itself seems harmless. On the wider conspiritist issue I agree.

You can’t have atmospheric pressure without a sphere. Get your own magic.

If it means that much to you, why don't you offer up each question and see what transpires.The question was to explain the mechanics of day and night, the seasons and the star maps without a globe... and you claim to have already done so.

You really are going to extreme lengths to avoid looking at a short video and attempting to answer what should be simple challenges.
It's not about how much it means to me.
Think of it like this... If you were to face up to the ten simple and basic challenges and realise that you cannot meet even one of them, perhaps you should be considering that as proof of something? Or is that the entire reason for not trying?
