See 56. I'm not the one believing a lie any longer. Mock God at your own peril. You've been informed so I wash my hands of you.

I'm not mocking anyone, including you.

I invited you to explain to everyone why the spheroid earth concept is a lie, and you put up a gif of the sun and moon rotating around a central axis point of our planet.

If that's true for Earth, then it must also be true for every planet in our solar system, but that's not even remotely possible.

Oh wait.... You quoted Scripture, so that means that God himself has deemed that our solar system works the way your silly model shows it, and "That's that, mister!." You don't have to explain its obvious flaws.

Neat trick, but that argument fell apart back in the time of Copernicus. I s'pose you never heard of him, but that's okay. He's just some dude who overturned a millennia of superstition and backward thinking with observation, mathematics, and deductive reasoning.

Unbelievable Horizons

Riiiiight, Copernicus.
How about what can be seen with your own eyes?

Using Only a Camera, Trace the Solar Analemma and Plot the Solstice

The Sun traces a figure eight pattern in the sky when viewed at the same time every day for a year. This pattern, called an analemma, allows you to know when the solstices occurred. Image courtesy Jailbird

Why does the Sun trace this odd path? The reasons boil down to two facts. First, the Earth is titled at an angle when it rotates, and second, the Earth has an eccentric orbit–it orbits in an ellipse as it revolves around the Sun.


So why isn't the tilt reflected in temperature variances?

Shouldn't the analemma be a different shape, a true figure eight with equal parts on each side, if the Earth were round?

Here's a question for you...How did NASA send people through the Van Allen radiation belt without the people dying from radiation exposure?

Why didn't the Apollo space capsules send off clouds of steam when they landed in the ocean? They had to have been hot, like in the picture of the Shuttle above, right?

Why are the stars we see in the night sky still reliable for navigation if we're going through such a convoluted path of movement?

Researchers working on the Hypersonic Thermodynamic InfraRed Measurements (HYTHIRM) project have imaged three shuttle flights so far, including the latest pictures from the landing of the space shuttle Discovery.
If the Shuttle is a glider during reentry and landing then why is there such a large hot spot at the rear of the craft where an engine would typically be on an aircraft?

Real or fake?

Fake!

Why is it called a "PHOTO" when it isn't?
Shouldn't it be labeled an image?
(imagine/imagination)

And speaking of other planets...

Rodents...on Mars!

Yeah...other planets.
