    Earth is Flat

    According to this man: Rev. Jim Osborne, the Earth is Flat and these are his 'proof'

    We know the Earth is flat because the Bible tells us so. But for those of you skeptical, close-minded types that flat out refuse to accept the overwhelming Biblical evidence, I have designed some experiments you can do at home that will show you, before your very eyes, that the world is indeed flat, and not spherical as some crazy scientists proclaim. It's amazing how many people blindly believe in a spherical Earth, without ever having seen it for themselves! I intend to change that.


    1) Jump!
    Now, scientists claim that Earth is spherical and rotating at a speed of between 700-1000 miles per hour, depending on your latitude. This is a very high rate of speed. You can disprove this nonsense by simply jumping up as high as you can. Really, it's that simple. What happens when you jump? You come straight down to where you were. But, if the Earth were indeed spinning at such a fast speed, wouldn't you land hundreds of feet away?

    If you were to stand in the flat bed of a truck going 75 ***, and jump straight up, what would happen? You wouldn't fall straight down. You would fall out of the truck. That's because trucks move, the Earth doesn't. This experiment proves the Earth is fixed in space and doesn't move.


    2) Blow!
    Since if the Earth is supposedly a sphere, it naturally comes to assume what would happen to people below the equator, like in Australia? Since they are underneath the sphere, wouldn't they fall off? This is where scientists come up with mumbo-jumbo like "gravity" and "centrifugal force" to explain away their theories. So, the scientists want you to think that because the earth is so much more massive than people or things, that people will naturally "stick" to the bottom of the earth because of gravity.

    This can be disproved very simply. Get a balloon and inflate it as big as possible. It will be a spherical shape. Now, take a piece of paper and try to rip, tear, or cut the tiniest speck of paper possible. This paper represents a human being, much smaller in mass to the balloon, which represents the Earth. Now try and place the small piece of paper to the underside of the balloon. What happens? It falls off!

    That's right. Even though the balloon is so much bigger in mass, it cannot hold the tiny paper. So if the Earth was a sphere, no one could live below the equator because they would fall off.


    3) Get High!
    Ok, this one you really can't do at home, but you can do it out in the world. Stand on the ground and look around you. What's the farthest you can see? Maybe it's a building, tree, or mountain. Now, find some place very close to it where you can get a much higher vantage point. (This also works if you're on a jet and about to take off.) Notice how in the higher place you can see much farther? You can see more of the world the higher you get. This shows the world is flat because the higher you go, the easier it is to see over obstacles. At the same time, it shows the world cannot be spherical. Because if the world was curved, the far distance would forever remain out of view because of the Earth's curvature. It would eternally be over the horizon.

    If the Earth was a sphere, it would not matter how high you went, you would still see the same thing. Since this is not the case, the Earth is flat.


    These experiments are all confirmed by creation scientists as being 100% accurate. If you're skeptical of the flat Earth, why don't you do these experiments so you can see truth with your own eyes.

    Yours in Christ,

    Rev. Jim Osborne

    1. Earth is travelling at 700~1000 miles per hour, and those that are on it travel at the same speed. If you were on the truck at 75 miles per hour, you are travelling 700~1000 miles per hour + 75 miles per hour, and if you were to jump off, it would be 700~1000 miles per hour + 75 miles per hour - X miles per hour, thus making you slower than the truck and fall off.

    2. Earth weighs over 10 million pounds, and a balloon is less than one ounce. Gravity can only be achieved because of the massive weight from the planet, unlike loose gas particles of the balloon, thus the balloon wouldn't have enough gravity to pull the paper because Earth is pulling it at a much stronger force. If you were to test this in space, eventually, the balloon WILL pull the paper towards it, since the balloon is the only force pulling the paper.

    3. Go into space, you can only see half the planet.

    Some of their argument is bonkers: If the Earth is round, we'll all simply fall off of it.

    According to what I am reading, they banned every last one of the people who are arguing about the theory. They also edited the posts they made such as removing scientific links.

    Don't ban me for this but:
    LOL, are you kidding, their whole outfit is stained
    1. Prosecuting Pagans
    2. Waging war on other religions
    3. Saying contradictions
    4. Scared

    I think the Romans should've killed them all

    And yet they called real Earth pictures as PS'ed
    We should send them to space and show them those 3 experiments, while they are literally in space, without space suits

    I was referring to the modern Christian, not dark ages skitzos. Everyone and their mums was fucked back then, pagans made blood sacrifices, Christians used torture for confessions, Muslims were waging war and stoning people. Honestly we cannot use those times and hearsay as any evidence to judge anyone..

    Just FYI im not 'Christian' by definition.

    True
    They're still ignorant for reading a 3kyo book when it's been proven Earth is 4.6byo

    @Liz Remember the episode when the dumbasses posted "God hates you" on fallen Marines?

    Dumbasses=Christians disrespecting other beliefs and trying to convert every way they can

    Of course, Christians got nothing on me, I am the 0.022 percent of the population that invented it.
