Check this out. It's like flat earth on steroids:





TL;DW: Not only is earth a flat disc topped by a dome, it is resting on giant shock absorbers (allowing us to have earthquakes) and all of THAT is surrounded by a giant box that God lives on top of.

All those take up how much surface area?

And then let's put an invisible sphere at the level of the satellite, how much surface area would that cover?

It's a place of discussion, not a believers thread
But a lot of people think that even asking questions or trying to have a talk is utter heretical blasphemy to the religious dogma of scientism.

....




Leonardo Di Caprio and the pope mention Flat Earth.





The way the pope looks at him at min 0:26-0:28 is interesting.




They are talking about the art piece created around the year 1500 by Hieronymus Bosch. It's called the "The Garden of Earthly Delights"

When closed, the 2 outside wooden panels show the world when it was created according to the bible:

[Image: bosch-garden-of-earthly-delights-closed-...world1.jpg]



Once opened it has 3 inside panels and this is the interior:


Heaven (first panel) Earth (middle panel) Hell (last panel)

Merc I'm going to have to call b's with this stuff you post. Do you even read it?

Quote: But most objects are under 10cm (4in) in diameter and can't be monitored.


This was quoted by you, when asking why you don't see them in a satellite in space. You bolded the statement before it. They only reason they're mentioned is because if one hits something they're just large enough to cause damage.

That's a quote from the BBC news article from April 2017 regarding broken stuff in space orbiting the earth.
Here is is again: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-39521406

Of the 7,000 claimed satellites the majority are allegedly intact and those that are functional (1,500 of them) are supposedly taking pictures of the earth each day....but none of them are ever seen in the ISS live stream. Like never. We are talking about big pieces of machinery here.

I believe the explanation is that they are further away from the earth than the ISS.

If the ISS can film the earth being closer to it, then the satellites (being farther away) can surely film the ENTIRE globe rotating in one 24 hour cycle.
But nope....doesn't exist.


But, like pure magic these satellites in space that can't film the entire globe rotating, can somehow magically photograph a volleyball game in North Korea at an alleged nuclear testing plant.

Not related to flat Earth but this painting is simply amazing. Colors, details, everything. Can't believe it was made in 16th century.

Thats because it wasn't, it's a scam. You see, you've been led to believe by scientism™ that color existed since the beginning of time, but in fact color was invented by a French guy named Jonny Haliday in 1861, that is why you never see color photos back then. You really can't refute that. Show me one color photo from before 1861. See you can't. There is no other explanation besides that. If color existed prior to that it would be in photos. Case closed.

Who takes this flat earth theory even remotely seriously? This smells like a huge moronic psyops.

Ancient societies thousands of years ago already thought that earth was not flat. And how the fuck should this all work in a cosmic sense? What about the edges?

What the fuck has everyone been smoking?

Read the other pages of the thread.
The theories and concepts are outlinted there with visual aids.
I'm not saying you have to believe it....but just read the ideas before having a emotional reaction.

To be honest Zelcorpion, i think you would also find that your ideas about the globalists wanting to rule the world and satanism would be even more confirmed by flat earth.

At it's core the ultimate motivation behind lying about what's outside the earth is Satan's way of getting you as far away from God as possible so you don't believe in anything spiritual anymore and live purely in materialism and hedonism. It does not even have to be a Christian God. Any God or Gods is equally valid. All major faiths have the concept of a devil tricking people with illusions and then getting people who worship evil to do the same trickery.

Under the flat earth theory, a round the world boat cruise works something like this:

The concept is the same for a round the world airplane flight:

[Image: 11143519_1144493992243423_2874492312554835064_n.jpg]


Have you ever noticed that it's impossible to buy a round the world flight that goes along a longitude line, say from Russia or Canada down to the south pole and back up the other side over the north pole.

To visualize this concept, try to imagine a flight that does a full 360 degree circle round the globe just like this yellow line below.
That kind of airplane flight does not exist.

RE: The Flat Earth Society - still going strong!
The summary from this thread is a point I've made before about what people need to prove or debunk theories:

1- you need to have an open mind and be open to the notion that a widely accepted notion or cultural norm might be false, and be able to mentally overcome the kind of cognitive dissonance that would come from a widely accepted cultural norm or event not being true.

2- you need to have enough discernment and critical thought to be able to objectively assess the facts. Often this involves having enough of a scientific background, or having enough technical grounding to be able to critically assess forensic evidence.

3- you've got to spend the time to do the research.


If you don't have all 3 of these keys down, you've not going to be in a position to correctly assess the issue. To summarize, you basically need to be fairly well-grounded red piller who's done his research to get to the bottom of things.

The problem with Merc is that he's got a highly skeptical nature, but he has very little in terms of scientific grounding. This is the profile of people who fall for crap like Flat Earth. They have too much of item #1, and very little of item #2, to the point that they believe everything is a conspiracy, because they don't have a scientific filter.

It doesn't matter how many FE talking points you debunk for him, the newest concoction is going to unravel all of this (see GlobalMan's post above).

Having a skeptical nature is a very good thing. Most of us on here have this in common, for instance we believe that the PTB have been engaging in sophisticated social engineering and have created ideologies like feminism to weaken humanity in order to better rule it. Almost all normies would consider this notion to be a pretty wild and crazy conspiratorial view of the world.

We on the other hand believe this is true because (1) we're willing to go outside the PC dogma mind barrier, (2) we're more politically savvy and have observed nefarious social dynamics at play and (3) we've done some research on the subject.

I'm curious to hear your reasoning on this: how do around the world cruises work?

Under the flat earth theory, a round the world boat cruise works something like this:

[Image: Flat_Earth.png]

Flight time from Santiago, Chile (SCL) to Sydney, Australia (SYD): 12h 40m
(Qantas flight #27, 3 times weekly)

Flight time from Santiago, Chile (SCL) to Los Angeles (LAX): 10h 45m

Flight time from Los Angeles (LAX) to Sydney, Australia (SYD): 13h 45m


Flat Earthers can't explain this. The flat earth map just doesn't work Merc, it shows LA as being nearly halfway on a direct/shortest path between Chile and Australia, but flight times prove that the three cities are roughly equidistant (something you can easily observe on a globe), so this flat earth map is plain bunk.

You can't debunk that Merc, neither can Eric Dubay, or any other bastard like him who has been deliberately trying to mindfuck vulnerable truthers in order to discredit legit "conspiracy theories".

Flat Earth is a cognitive infiltration and manipulation psyop that picked up just as Obama's Office of Information Czar Cass Sunstein was putting together those kinds of policies and stratagems in order to discredit people who aren't buying the official narratives.

The flat earth maps are theories....not something that is ever claimed to be drawn to an exact scale.

Yeah, I can't debunk the flight time thing...but you can't show me a video of the whole earth globe in space doing a 24 hour full rotation either.
I'm talking about an unbroken 24 hour long video in real time, not some edit or composite, or compilation of still photographs.
