And there was a time when the Majority of the People believed that the earth was flat.

Not really. Everyone can see the shadow of the earth on the moon during an eclipse. Everyone can see the shape of the moon and sun. Everyone could see a ship's sails first when it came over the horizon.

Very few would believe that the earth was flat.
