longbobby Lufkin, TX 56, joined Aug. 2010	flat earth A "theory" (lacking evidence, it should be called a myth) of the Earth's shape that is incongruent with the common understanding of the Earth and other planets in the universe, is unfounded, and contrary to gravity and basic laws of physics. Flat Earth is believed mostly by conspiratards. It asserts that the Earth is a flat disc. People who believe in this defend their assertions by calling any factual evidence of the Earth's spherical shape fake, and by using biblical verses and psuedoscience to contrive an argument. http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=flat%20earth flat earther a person who does not accept or is out of touch with the realities/ beliefs of modern times; one who blatantly dismisses/ disagrees with common knowledge or scientific findings. Flat earther A person who doesn't believe NASA really visited the moon and that we actually live on a geocentric model. flat earther someone who literally believes in the supernatural, in fantastical unrealistic things that belong in fantasy stories that fly in the face of modern scientific understanding. a person who ignores rational evidence of the way things actually are according to facts, and instead adheres to a worldview best left behind in the dark ages. flat earther The worst kind of internet troll after Anti-broines. flat earthers flat out ignore physics. http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=flat%20earther

The flat Earth model is an archaic conception of the Earth's shape as a plane or disk. Many ancient cultures subscribed to a flat Earth cosmography, including Greece until the classical period, the Bronze Age and Iron Age civilizations of the Near East until the Hellenistic period, India until the Gupta period (early centuries AD), and China until the 17th century. That paradigm was also typically held in the aboriginal cultures of the Americas, and the notion of a flat Earth domed by the firmament in the shape of an inverted bowl was common in pre-scientific societies.[1] The idea of a spherical Earth appeared in Greek philosophy with Pythagoras (6th century BC), although most pre-Socratics (6th – 5th century BC) retained the flat Earth model. Aristotle provided evidence for the spherical shape of the Earth on empirical grounds by around 330 BC. Knowledge of the spherical Earth gradually began to spread beyond the Hellenistic world from then on.[2][3][4][5] Theories espoused by modern flat Earth societies are commonly labeled pseudoscience https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flat_Earth

The Millennium Report could not resist posting this excellent submission from the Society of Flat Earth Debunkers. They have exposed a new and dangerous dimension to this ongoing and intensifying PSYOP known as the Flat Earth Theory. This thoroughly fraudulent theory is aggressively promoted by a highly dubious and deceitful organization known as the Flat Earth Society The Flat Earth Theory is not a theory at all; rather, it is a meticulously engineered hoax that is zealously advanced on the Internet by a rogue government black operation known as the Flat Earth Society. Their central goals and purposes are numerous and by no means mutually exclusive. However, there is one goal in particular that reigns absolutely supreme on their “deliberate agenda of disruption”: To so discredit every other truth movement by infiltrating them with their utter babble. In this fashion the Flat Earthers seek to bring down the real truthers by the mere association with their fallacious and preposterous drivel. Enjoy the exposé. http://themillenniumreport.com/2016/01/flat-earth-theory-fabricated-by-tptb-to-distract-from-planet-x/ The Flat Earthers Are Being Sent Into Every Real Truth Movement To Disrupt And Destroy Them, Especially The Planet X Groups by Society of Flat Earth Debunkers If ever there was a PSYOP designed to distract, divert and misdirect, the thoroughly insane Flat Earth Theory (FET) is the one. Never in the history of black operations have the co-conspirators been so fierce and fanatical in their mission to deceive and dupe. Just what is that covert mission? To effectively blow up every internet chat room, forum and blog that has many meaningful discussion about Planet X, formerly known as the 10th Planet. Planet X is the real megillah that everyone has been tying to hide for decades. Simply put, its profound ramifications are so far-reaching and highly consequential that TPTB cannot risk the people catching on. Hence, along comes the Flat Earth Theory to change the conversation into absolute and utter gibberish. Anyone who knows how COINTELPRO really works will tell you that these Flat Earthers have been carefully cultivated in some serious mind-control programming experiments. Whenever they encounter any resistance to their utterly absurd FET hallucinations, they literally go ballistic. However, they do so with great purpose and calculation. Their studied responses are quite manipulative, just as their triggered reactions are practically inhuman. Just go to one of the big chat rooms and hang out in one that has made the Flat Earth Theory the topic of discussion. Watch the intensity on the side of the Flat Earthers, especially the way that they deceptively advance their daft arguments. It’s almost as though these folks (probably droids) have been fabricated in some laboratory somewhere in Andromeda. Their thought process is not human, and the practiced sophistry that they routinely employ in downright otherworldly as in AI gone awry in an evil Grey lab in Area 51. BOTTOM LINE: There is no good reason to confront a Flat Earther—Anywhere, Anytime or Anyway. They have proven themselves to be incapable of exercising their faculty of human reason. Likewise, they completely lack any common sense and the ability to utilize basic logic. The Flat Earthers were somehow brainwashed in such a way that they can spontaneously suspend the use of their intellect. Most of them lack the capacity to even discern between a simple right and wrong answer to a question which is obviously black and white. For real, these dunces can’t even answer “Yes” or “No” when asked if the sky — RIGHT NOW — is blue or green, when it is a perfectly deep blue sky. Yes, they have completely left the reservation of rationality and reason. They’re either permanently “Out To Lunch”, forever “AWOL”, and “There’s Nobody Home”. We’re talking the complete absence of even an iota of intellectual integrity. Do you now get the picture? (-: Actually, it ought to be )-: The bottom line, then, is NOT to waste your time with the Flat Earthers. Their primary function is to waste your time … mightily! As well as to distract you from much more important things that are going on everywhere, all the time. During these times, when things are moving VERY fast, no one on the planet has a second to waste. So why spend a moment in debate with a veritable idiocracy of Flat Earth nonsense?!?! If you really knew that this whole Flat Earth PSYOP was a full-blown DARPA-conceived, CIA-directed, NSA-monitored, DIA-driven black operation, would you continue to given them any energy whatsoever? Well, now you know. Perhaps some folks enjoy the journey into the realm of the extremely deranged; however, be aware that these Flat Earthers know exactly what they’re doing and that you may find yourself trapped off in a fictitious space-time continuum of puerile phantasmagoria and mentally challenged pseudo-entertainment. BEWARE, and be aware, of where they might be taking you. DISCLAIMER: The Society of Flat Earth Debunkers (SFED) perfectly understands that NASA does not tell the truth about anything ever, unless they must. The SFED also knows that there are many scientific laws and maxims, theories and hypotheses which are falling apart by the day. We put no stock in the many falsehoods and propagated by the scientific establishment. However, that doesn’t mean that doesn’t mean that everything that comes out of NASA is bunk. After all, they did know enough to launch a space shuttle every now and then. More importantly, the Russians would have given up the International Space Station years ago if all NASA science and technology was falsely concocted. Would you send up your cosmonauts if the math was all wrong? Now, if you don’t believe what we just wrote, you may want to read the following penetrating exposés. https://starrynews.wordpress.com/2016/04/13/the-flat-earthers-are-being-sent-into-every-real-truth-movement-to-disrupt-and-destroy-them/

Of course the opposite is true (unless you mean that liberals know flat-earthism is delusional, because we accept science.) Flat-earth believers are ~100% Christian social conservatives. (Maybe some Jewish social conservatives too, I don't know.) The whole concept comes from insistence on accepting a strict literal (mis-)interpretation of Biblical descriptions of "the heavens" on blind faith.

The earth is described in Job 26:7 as being suspended over empty space, implying a spherical figure. This notion is further entertained in Isaiah 40:21-22, which refers to “the circle of the earth.” This is further supported by Proverbs 8:27 (NKJV), which speaks of God drawing a circle on the face of the deep. From a “bird’s-eye view” of the ocean, the horizon is seen as a circle. Such an observation indicates that where light terminates, darkness begins, describing the reality of day and night on a spherical earth. Scriptural references such as Revelation 7:1 are cited, which speaks of “four angels standing at the four corners of the earth.” However, this passage makes reference to the cardinal directions as seen on a compass – i.e. north, south, east and west.

They have had to come up with an answer for this, because it get asked quite often. So what they came up with was that the ship disappears simply because it gets too far away for you to see. (I don't know if people have then asked them "OK, but if that's true, then why can you wait until right when the ship 'gets too small to see', and then pick up a pair of binoculars, and you still can't see it?" Maybe binoculars are one of the many hoaxes of science that the Devil has foisted upon us to test the faithful.) The same goes for the sun and the moon incidentally. They don't ever disappear over the horizon, they just get too small to see! (Because the sun is only about the size of a large boat.)

The right-wing is always late to the party, but then pretends like they were the ones holding the party. However, it is always the right-wing that is fighting against truth and decency. The right-wing fought against science. They only embraced the spherical Earth after decades of scientific proof left them no other option. Only after that truth and decency has been fought for, won, and confirmed does the right-wing climb on board. Then they wave the flag and claim that which the rise of that which they fought tooth and nail against to be their own success story. For instance, it was American liberalism that led the fight for U.S. independence, not conservatism. The far-right loved Adolf Hitler and the Nazis and attempted a fascist coup right here in the U.S. Many of them wanted to enter WWII on the side of Germany. Another losing pursuit by America's far-right. It was American liberalism that fought to keep the nation together during the 1860s. The far-right was trying with all their military might to divide and destroy America, leaving it susceptible to being raped and looted by foreign capital rather than emerging as a global power. Nice job, treasonous right-wing scumbags. It was American liberalism that fought for the civil rights movement. And who was the fight against? Yep! You guessed it: the far-right-wing. It was American liberalism that fought for the end of child labor. That battle was fought against the wishes and demands of the chest-pounding, fetus-loving right-wing. Love the fetus; hate the child. It was American liberalism that fought for decent wages for workers, the creation of a thriving middle class, safe working conditions, and women's rights. All were fought against the disgusting, despicable, far-right-wing. [Edited 5/10/2017 1:30:43 PM ]

The problem with you Jesus-freaks is that your great scientific discoveries always come well after scientists make and prove the discoveries and as they have done so in spite of the wishes and demands of the Bible-thumping church. ------------------------- Giordano Bruno, philosopher and scientist, burnt at the stake 400 years ago By Frank Gaglioti 16 February 2000 World Socialist Web Site https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2000/02/brun-f16.html Excerpt: Four centuries ago today, on February 16, 1600, the Roman Catholic Church executed Giordano Bruno, Italian philosopher and scientist, for the crime of heresy. He was taken from his cell in the early hours of the morning to the Piazza dei Fiori in Rome and burnt alive at the stake. To the last, the Church authorities were fearful of the ideas of a man who was known throughout Europe as a bold and brilliant thinker. In a peculiar twist to the gruesome affair, the executioners were ordered to tie his tongue so that he would be unable to address those gathered. Throughout his life Bruno championed the Copernican system of astronomy which placed the sun, not the Earth, at the centre of the solar system. He opposed the stultifying authority of the Church and refused to recant his philosophical beliefs throughout his eight years of imprisonment by the Venetian and Roman Inquisitions. His life stands as a testimony to the drive for knowledge and truth that marked the astonishing period of history known as the Renaissance—from which so much in modern art, thought and science derives. In 1992, after 12 years of deliberations, the Roman Catholic Church grudgingly admitted that Galileo Galilei had been right in supporting the theories of Copernicus. The Holy Inquisition had forced an aged Galileo to recant his ideas under threat of torture in 1633. But no such admission has been made in the case of Bruno. His writings are still on the Vatican's list of forbidden texts.

Louie We can always count on right-wing Jesus-freaks to make rational discoveries long after they were discovered by science. Unfortunately, those right-wing Jesus-freaks have a long, ugly history of fighting science at every turn. ----------------- Giordano Bruno, philosopher and scientist, burnt at the stake 400 years ago By Frank Gaglioti 16 February 2000 World Socialist Web Site https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2000/02/brun-f16.html Excerpt Karl Marx's co-thinker Fredrick Engels summed up the period that produced figures, such as Bruno, who challenged the church and laid the basis for modern science. In an introduction written in the 1870s to his unfinished work the Dialectics of Nature, Engels wrote: “It was the greatest progressive revolution that mankind had so far experienced, a time which called for giants and produced giants—giants in power of thought, passion and character, in universality and learning. The men who founded the modern rule of the bourgeoisie had anything but bourgeois limitations. On the contrary, the adventurous character of the time inspired them to a greater or lesser degree. There was hardly any man of importance then living who had not travelled extensively, who did not speak four or five languages, who did not shine in a number of fields.... “At that time natural science also developed in the midst of the general revolution and was itself thoroughly revolutionary; it had indeed to win in struggle its right of existence. Side by side with the great Italians from whom modern philosophy dates, it provided its martyrs for the stake and the dungeons of the Inquisition. And it is characteristic that Protestants outdid Catholics in persecuting the free investigation of nature. Calvin had Servetus burnt at the stake when the latter was on the point of discovering the circulation of the blood, and indeed he kept him roasting alive during two hours; for the Inquisition at least it sufficed to have Giordano Bruno simply burnt alive."[3]

ANSWER: The Theory of Evolution. ---------------- Religious views of Charles Darwin From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religious_views_of_Charles_Darwin Excerpt: Charles Darwin's views on religion have been the subject of much interest. His pivotal work in the development of modern biology and evolution theory played a prominent part in debates about religion and science at the time, then, in the early 20th century became a focus of the creation-evolution controversy in the United States. Charles Darwin had a non-conformist Unitarian background, but attended a Church of England school.[1] With the aim of becoming a clergyman he went to the University of Cambridge for the required BA degree, which included studies of Anglican theology. He took great interest in natural history and became filled with zeal for science as defined by John Herschel, based on the natural theology of William Paley which presented the argument from divine design in nature to explain adaptation as God acting through laws of nature.[2][3] On the voyage of the Beagle he remained orthodox and looked for "centres of creation" to explain distribution, but towards the end of the voyage began to doubt that species were fixed.[4][5]
