The Earth was never flat in the Bible, only in the Roman Church’s definition for 2 or 300 years.

Same with the center of the Universe.

Hmmmmmmm. Who [cough] assembled the Canon [cough] of Scripture known also as the Bible [cough].

Yeah, I know, it was brought to earth by "tachyons" into the hands of Luther.

Sorry, no cigar!

Only flat in the minds of the writers and readers of the Bible.

Ahem.

The Roman Church never defined the shape of the Earth. Most people who thought about the issue had understood the world was round since the time of Alexander or earlier.
