Then coronation Island was epic. After that’s Delta Island was cold but scenic. Then omicron Island I was starting to think just maybe this a conspiracy but you didn't mention the 66.6 thousand miles an hour we go around the sun or the 66.6 degrees ( minus the 23.4 that we supposedly tilt at) or the 8 inches per mile squared giving the earth a curvature of 66.6 degrees nothing to see here!!!!!!

Could you comment on this video? [link to www.youtube.com (secure)] That seems to be some pretty good evidence for more "flatness" than the circumference of the globe model (approx 41,000km circumference) would allow for. Isn't it? I'm still looking for a photo (not "imagery") of Earth. |

A follow up question: If we assume the earth is flat (is it so bad to entertain the thought experiment?... especially when the globe model is still actually a model (ie. not proven fact)), then how and why did we come to believe in the globe model, and who benefits from the continued deception? |
