Dude, you are just cringeworthy.

The Flat Earther next door: These are the US states with highest share of conspiracy theorists, based on residents' internet search history... so do YOU live in a flat or round state? Alaskans were the most interested in 'Flat Earth' theories, Google searches show New Jersey natives entertained 'Flat Earth' claims least, per same search data
Earth's greatest minds have known our world is round since at least as far back as the day Pythagoras made his calculations in ancient Greece over 2,000 years ago.
But as you might have guessed from fighting with relatives and old friends on Facebook, as many as 10 percent of Americans still believe the earth is flat, according to survey data compiled in 2021.
If you're looking for a place offline to get away from conversations about 'Flat Earth' conspiracy theories (or maybe where to go to join your fellow true believers), a new analysis of Google searches across all 50 US states might help.
Die-hard 'Flat Earthers' may want to bundle up before relocating to Alaska, whose residents searched the most for information on the widely discredited theory.
And those looking to move on from the 'Flat Earth' debate entirely may want to find space in the densely populated state of New Jersey, which had the lowest interest in researching the topic online per 10,000 residents.
Find out below if you live in a 'Flat State' or a 'Round State.'

That's the best retort you have?
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
BWAHAHAHA
Really would the glory of God be a system that can’t perpetuate itself without constant intervention, and also presents a bunch of lies to people (let’s face it, everything sure LOOKS round)?
Or would to glory of God be a system that ACTUALLY WORKS, and looks like it is.
You’re the one denying God.
Yep, blind and ignorant. Left a picture of the ice wall and he is blind.
Dude, you are just cringeworthy.
It’s the truth. They put the sun symbol where it’s center was at the time of the event. if they made such a thing to scale it would make the illustration completely useless cause you wouldn’t be able to see the map with this big dumb sun symbol in the way.
“Bless your heart, you don’t know the difference between science and scientism.”
Apparently you don’t either.
Hayek’s 1952 “The Counter-Revolution of Science: Studies on the Abuse of Reason” is a book length criticism of scientism that popularized the term.
Scientism is a pretence that the tools and methods of hard science can transfer to the social sciences. The Flat Earth debate is entirely within the field of the hard sciences. It’s a question of measurement, not epistemology.
Oh, I don't deny Him at all.
You're the one denying His creation.
The heavens declare the glory of God;
and the firmament sheweth his handywork.
And gay used to mean happy, not homosexual.
Yes, I don’t believe that you believe a thing you’re saying. It’s not possible.
BWAHAHAHAHAHA
You go with Von Braun. The guy who put rockets IN ORBIT. Rockets that took pictures. Pictures that clearly show a CONTINUOUS GLOBE.
That’s hilarious. And shows just how beyond useless your brain is. You’re too stupid to realize HE PROVES YOU WRONG. I sure hope you wear hats, cause you ain’t using your head for anything else.
I disagree. Philman_36 is not stupid.
He is a great example of a true believer.
No evidence will convince him, because anyone with a brain will always be able to construct a reason not to believe evidence.
I know many smart people who believe impossible things, because they want to believe. They have invested a lot of their time, energy and mental space into believing.
Consider the far-left and "Critical" theory. It has been disproved many times in real-world attempts. It always fails.
This never persuades them, because their entire being is invested in the belief structure.
We cannot persuade Philman_36, because he is not willing to be persuaded. He simply will not accept any evidence which shows his arguments to be false. The Lake Ponchetrain power line is a great example.
Simply changing the angle of a camera picture a small amount, does not change the relationship of items in the picture near the middle of the frame. If you raise the height of camera enough, then the horizon will expand until the far distance fades into obscurity
I will save Philman_36 the trouble, because all he needs to say, is, light is not traveling in a straight line in this case.
A true believer can always come up with an excuse as to why evidence they do not want to believe can be discredited.
Are you having trouble finding one?
The man showed how it can't be done.
Show me how it can be done.
Caterwauling isn't getting you anywhere.
Yeah, near Earth orbit!
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
That makes him stupid on purpose. Which is worse than just being stupid. He’s not a true believer, he’s a dedicated moron.
Orbit. Doesn’t matter how far out it is. You can’t orbit flat things.
I did show you my example. And you ignored it.
You gave me a bunch of words.
A very dangerous attitude. I am not mad at Philman_36. I kind of like him for his creativity. He is wrong, but lots of people are wrong all the time.
The attitude is dangerous because people who claim someone who is wrong about something shows they are stupid, undervalues and underestimates them. I suspect Philman_36 would make a great company commander and fitting sharer of foxholes, but I wouldn't want to put him in the Space Force or Air Force, or Navy.
Do not underestimate people because you know they are wrong about something.
