His perspective about humanity around 8 minutes into the video made a lot of sense. It tugged at my heart's emotion. He actually lives outside the box. I wonder if the person got the answer he wanted at 16 minutes. Peace

What does everyone think of the Flat Earth Theory?
I have read some books on the subject.
I am convinced the Earth is round. I tend to go with the mainstream views.
I think it’s one of the most ridiculous scams that exists today that is mostly bought by conspiracy theorists, people with mental handicaps, and just flat out liars who actually know better. Not saying that everyone who believes it falls into these categories just most of them that I’ve encountered.

You vision is not so good, if you think you are seeing a sun, moon and stars. That are thousands to million to billions of miles and light years away out in an outer space.

That is the biggest joke in all of this debate, is the claim by science that their creation is observed. It is observed all right, through fake photo manipulation and cgi.
Not sure how the governments manage to fake lunar eclipses, solar eclipses, sunrises and sunsets, and even traveling distance discrepancies between the northern and southern hemisphere, all of which I have experienced for myself with my own eyes. Can’t really photo shop or cgi what I’m seeing with my own eyes in real life.

And then you get these people who grossly misinterpret scripture to state that the world is not how we see it!!! Unbelievable.

God gave man wisdom, understanding, the ability to learn.

The Bible does not explain God's creation. It doesnt go into detail. Plus, it was written at a time when many of God's wonders were totally unfathomable and unexplainable.

Praise be to God for giving us knowledge and some understanding of His wonderful creation through science and learned people throughout the ages.

like you are the only one who has seen lunar eclipses, solar eclipses, sunrises and sunsets. To bad you are letting science dictate your vision, but i guees it is hard to really see God's creation as He created it. Since from early childhood you have been told what to see.

Sounds like you've never read the Bible.

Which is why I believe that the flat earth delusion is at its root, demonic. And many naive Christians have mindlessly fallen for it to the detriment of the Gospel. Augustine, On Genesis

I don’t even believe that most of these people actually believed it. I think they just say they do.

What does everyone think of the Flat Earth Theory?
I have read some books on the subject.
I am convinced the Earth is round. I tend to go with the mainstream views.

As a pilot and someone who grew up in an aviation and airline family I know for a scientific fact the earth is a globe. The Bible does not teach the earth is flat as others wrongfully claim.

So as a pilot we know that last light happens on the ground (i.e. the sun has set on the ground) whilst we still see the sun up at altitude. We need to be on the ground before last light.

Growing up with a flight crew father meant traveling standby as a family so we always had to get the first flight of the day so we got seats. We’d board before dawn and the entire fleet of airliners would taxi at the first sliver of light. We’d line up on the runway, the sun still below the horizon, the engines would throttle up and we’d roar down the runway and rocket heavenwards into the sky. In less than 5 minutes we’d be in glorious bright sunshine and blue skies the colors of pre dawn sunrise faded into the azure skies.

This is not possible with a flat earth. Anyone who believes in a flat earth have both a low IQ and are victims of the Dunning Kruger effect.

Note I have been very active in high end science. I have worked at Answers in Genesis with top planetary scientists such as Dr Danny Faulkner and I have had involvement with SpaceX and Starship for Mars.

At its very root, flat earth teaching is demonic. I know one flat earth Christian whose health is deteriorating and she wonders why God does not heal her.
"It does not matter" flies in the face of TRUTH and denies the veracity of God's word.
I have a few people on here that believe that I am a flat earther. However, I have stated over and over again that I am not convinced of a Flat earth and I totally believe that the globe model presented to us is not correct.

Having said that, I would like to address your "demonic" assumption of the FE.

That cannot be true as there are many many people who were atheists..... heard of the FE...... looked into it and became believers of the FE...
The next step that they took was the logical conclusion that.... if the earth is a flat dome covered "snow globe" ( Thank you Rob Skiba).... then evolution is toast.
If evolution is toast and this "snow globe" FE needs a creator.. No, not "needs" a creator... Demands a creator.

They then become believers in God, Christ and are strong Bible believeing Christians.

Demonic stories, beliefs and fabrications never bring people closer to God. They drive them away...

Sorry to hear that your friends deteriorating health. However, it's not her FE belief that is causing it or keeping her from being healed.

Lots of God fearing strong Christians have health issues that God isn't healing.

How deluded can you be? Right in front of you the first thing is the velcro strap floating...then another object "just floats (and is hanging there floating) but why does the video pretend that did not happen?

"Does'nt drop down..." --the imaginary 'gotcha' moment. [pretending nothing floated before] The ring 'dropped' because it had intertia applied to it. He was pulling on the ring.

The guy that made this video has swallowed the flat earth demonic delusion hook, line, and sinker.
