Gave me a good laugh today. Its funny that Flat Earthers will trust ancient ANE text about the earth over modern science and fight tooth and nail to keep that world view.
WhoaâflashbackâI did that as a YEC.
Just goes to show how we all can struggle with this complicated world and the need for control and safety, I guess. It really helped me that Denis Lamoureux was able to clarify concordism and be more comfortable with theology and contextualization. Thanks.
Has anyone read about Will Duffyâs expedition to the South Pole to look at the midnight sun, with Flat Earthers? Some apparently agreed that flat earthism is wrong. In contrast, others in the US said it was all a lie, and one that Satan had made a fiery ball in the sky to look like the Sun.
It sure reminds me of my own fragility and desire to be part of a group.
Thanks.
- I happen to be listening to Will Duffy in conversation with Ironwork92000, Sovereign Soul Unchained Mind, and Buttered Biscuits prior to The Final Experiment.

Are you psychic? Funny, but that is what the FLERs are saying about the video from Artemis II. NASA fakes the video, but they are so bad at it that you can tell it is fake.
Hawaii is 800 miles closer to Alaska than to California.
You have to be careful about these flat maps which distort distances because the Earth is not flat.
Not to mention that planes shoot North or South respective of the hemisphere in order to conserve fuel. If we cut the Earth into circles for each line of latitude, we would see that the circles closer to each pole is much smaller in radius than the ones below it. Thus, when traveling across Earth latitude wise, planes will hop onto these shorter latitude lines in order to travel less a distance.
Of course, Iâve seen flat Earthers try to twist this into âplanes arenât traveling up a sphere! They are just flying straight across a flat Earth!â I would like to also point out the wonderful diagram of long-haul flights featured somewhere above in this thread that shows flights going directly across the Southern Hemisphere (the fabled area where the fermimentâs edge is said to lay).
