Does anyone else enjoy the simple irony of the title as much as I do?
And they can’t and won’t come to grips with a simple, salient fact: If the Earth were flat puddy cats would have knocked everything off the edge.
It is an example of how stupid people are getting.
Yes. I doubt though that the third year journalism student who wrote the headline gets it. Kids today have no sense of humor.
Correct. The ancient Greeks knew the world was round. Columbus knew the world was round before he set out. However, the estimates of the world’s size were usually off by about half.
Is this stuff for real? I can never figure out if this is a parody or it people really believe this?
There have been flat-earthers on this forum. Some were (probably) trolls, some were (probably) serious.
Well, if the so called science experts are willing to lie about “global warming”, what else are they willing to lie about.
I’m not a flat earther, but I can understand why someone would conclude that the “science” community was lying about just about everything at this point.

Poor kitteh. Wants a drink, but has no thumbs.
The Bible also speaks of the four corners of the earth and says the sun revolves around the earth. Anyone looking to scripture for science is bound to be disappointed.
lets wait and see how long before we learn that all “Trump Supporters/Deplorables” are “flatearthers”......10,9,8,7,6...
Can you tell me the Book, Chapter and Verse where the Bible says the Sun orbits the Earth.
About 4 corners of the Earth, it is a figurative expression that is translated from Greek.
The Bible makes it clear that the Earth is a sphere in Isaiah.
Anyway . . . It is clear you have an axe to grind with God
Idiot FE’s need to watch a sunrise with high clouds overhead some morning ... the sun actually ILLUMINATES the underside of the cloud deck ...
‘splain that, Lucy ...
Just pretend they’re “indigenous pipples.” That’ll make it all right.
re: “We ALL know that if the Earth were flat, cats would have pushed everything over the edge.”
Parrots do that too, then they look to verify the object made it to the floor ... “Logic at work in the mind of a bird.”
Joshua 10:12-13 - " Then Joshua spoke to the Lord in the day when the Lord delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel: Sun, stand still over Gibeon; And Moon, in the Valley of Aijalon. So the sun stood still, And the moon stopped, Till the people had revenge Upon their enemies. Is this not written in the Book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and did not hasten to go down for about a whole day."

The Bible mentions the four corners of the earth in Revelations and Isaiah, the ends of the earth in Job, and in Matthew 4:8 the Devil takes Jesus to a very high mountain and "showed Him all the kingdoms of the world in all their splendor". All implying a flat earth.
Anyway . . . It is clear you have an axe to grind with God
Not at all. It's just that unlike you I don't see the Bible as a science book.
re: “All implying a flat earth.”
Ha! Limited perspective; you’ve never heard the term “tropospheric ducting”.
Wrong again!
God can set aside natural laws to accomplish his will.
Again you quote something that was clearly figuratively speaking.
Anyway, you can lie and deceive people about the Bible and your idle words you will be judged for.
