I used to work with a "flat Earther". Apparently the Bible contains verses that could be construed as describing the Earth as flat. He would argue all day that the Earth was flat and that NASA was a conspiracy. YouTube is infested with flat Earth videos.
75 bible verses prove a flat earth

Actually, Im an obese fatoid.Ha. Yeah, me too. I'm working on losing weight. Finally got a calorie counter app that's really helping me realize that, while I don't always eat a lot in my own eyes, it's the little crap that adds up. I haven't really had to deprive myself of anything, just make different choices at times. Some days, it's actually really hard to eat all the calories I'm supposed to after making really good choices during the day.

Apparently, no one ever taught them:
Dont argue with idiots because they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience. Greg King
Never argue with a fool; onlookers may not be able to tell the difference. Mark Twain

The earth must be round, otherwise it couldn't be hollow. Exactly. Those Nazi UFO's have to come from somewhere. I just don't believe they want to make the commute from their moonbase.

Some people get extremely angry when told the earth is flat.
You would think they would just laugh it off and say “you are crazy”.
I will take Gods word for it. The earth is fixed, unmoveable.
The sun, stars and moon revolve it.

I read once that a schoolteacher in Kentucky in the 1920s was fired for teaching her pupils that the earth is round—because the Bible refers to the “four corners of the earth” (so it must be flat).

I'm telling you people, the Earth revolves around the sun.
Burn him!
