Title: Apparently this site is not a joke!
Post by: Roph on June 25, 2007, 11:00:59 PM
http://theflatearthsociety.org/ (http://theflatearthsociety.org/)

Have a read around, it's basically lots of people telling them how stupid they are.

One topic you should probably read is their FAQ (http://theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=11211.0), which provides undeniable proof that the earth really is in fact a flat disc.

They explain gravity by saying that the earth is in fact constantly moving upwards at exactly 1G, amongst other things :tpg:

They seem to have taken most things that would say otherwise - including obvious things such as people actually BEING in space of flying at high enough altitudes to see the curvature of the planet and taking photos - and debunked them all.

Incidentally, 3000x3002 LIES (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/97/The_Earth_seen_from_Apollo_17.jpg).

LOL! :tpg:

QuoteQ: Why hasn't this site been shut down by the government?

A: Doing so would prove that the government is hiding something.
More like to get a good laugh out of the site.

Q: "Please explain sunrises/sunsets."

A: It's a perspective effect.  Really, the sun is just getting farther away; it looks like it disappears because everything gets smaller and eventually disappears as it gets farther away.


Haha...  ;9 omg this is plain stupid.

Q: "What's underneath the Earth?" aka "What's on the bottom?" aka "What's on the other side?"

A: This is unknown. Some believe it to be just rocks, others believe the Earth rests on the back of four elephants and a turtle.


This is for real? four elephants and a turtle?

No, actually I didn't read this question before. This completely contradicts what they said. If there were to be a moving away, the earth must go close to the sun again to get the rise or the set. Then, that doesn't go with the fact they said that the earth is always rising. >_>

QuoteQ: No way could the government possibly guard the entire Ice Wall!  It would take too many men!  Millions of men!

A: Not really.  You could do it with a few hundred and some basic equipment.


That the earth is flat is one, but that when you set a few hundred men guard the whole circle, thats insane.

QuoteQ: "Why are other celestial bodies round but not the Earth?"

A: The Earth is not one of the other planets.  The Earth is special and unlike the other bodies in numerous ways.

Yes, Yes, i found and answer that is true!

Post by: modern algebra on July 02, 2007, 11:37:21 AM
Nope, from the language the "believers" use, it seems very likely that it was set up as a joke by some friends. They pretend they believe in it because it's funny, and it is. Like the turtle thing, that's clearly a reference to a native american legend, of a tribe of which there are few living members (I think there's none, actually). I would say it is probably meant to be a mockery of conspiracy theories, or just a joke. Either way, it's not serious.

The one with 4 elephants and a turtle is from Discworld by some guy who wrote a couple of stories based on discworld. (Really bad description)

The shear lack of intelligence of that makes me want to kill those idiots.
And we wonder why there are so many stupid people in the world.

"Q: "What about satellites? How do they orbit the Earth?"

A: Since sustained spaceflight is not possible, satellites can't orbit the Earth.  The signals we supposedly receive from them are either broadcast from towers or any number of possible pseudolites."
