Daniel Shenton The Earth is flat, he argues, because it appears flat. The sun and moon are spherical, but much smaller than mainstream science says, and they rotate around a plane of the Earth, because they appear to do so. I don't think there is solid proof. I'm not intentionally being stubborn about it, but I feel our senses tell us these things, and it would take an extraordinarily level of evidence to counteract those. How many people have actually investigated it? Have you?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S10mainly Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 The worrying thing is : this is one of the more innocent points of view currently being bandied about on this forum.

Without showing respect how can we expect people to come on here and explain how they came by their faith and what justifies them retaining it after being exposed to scientifically rigorous examination? Then you can call them thick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatrajah Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 There was a very long thread entitled "Understanding the universe" a couple of years ago.
