The earth is flat. (Impossible to debunk)

Hello everyone

I will show you what I have found within the last couple of months.
This will once and for all prove to you that the earth is flat.

1. Flight paths

Abu Dhabi to Texas flight path

This graphic shows the path of a flight from Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates to Fort Worth, Texas, USA. The top graphic shows how the flight appears as it is tracked on a globe map. The bottom graphic shows how the flight path would look on a flat earth map. As you can see, the flight path on the ball earth map appears to take a strange northern loop and pass unnecessarily over land in the high northern latitudes. Why not just go in a straight line? On the flat earth map, however, the flight path going over land in the northern latitudes makes perfect sense, as it is a straight line from point A to point B.

If Earth was a ball, and Antarctica was too cold to fly over, the only logical way to fly from Sydney to Santiago would be a straight shot over the Pacific staying in the Southern hemisphere the entire way. Re-fueling could be done in New Zealand or other Southern hemisphere destinations along the way if absolutely necessary. In actual fact, however, Santiago-Sydney flights go into the Northern hemisphere making stop-overs at LAX and other North American airports before continuing back down to the Southern hemisphere. Such ridiculously wayward detours make no sense on the globe but make perfect sense and form nearly straight lines when shown on a flat Earth map.”.

“On a ball-Earth, Johannesburg, South Africa to Perth, Australia should be a straight shot over the Indian Ocean with convenient re-fueling possibilities on Mauritus or Madagascar. In actual practice, however, most Johannesburg to Perth flights curiously stop over either in Dubai, Hong Kong or Malaysia all of which make no sense on the ball, but are completely understandable when mapped on a flat Earth.”—Ibid

“On a ball-Earth Johannesburg, South Africa to Sao Paolo, Brazil should be a quick straight shot along the 25th Southern latitude, but instead nearly every flight makes a re- fueling stop at the 50th degree North latitude in London first! The only reason such a ridiculous stop-over works in reality is because the Earth is flat.” ~ Ibid

According to the Federal Aviation Association, no air flights have gone the much shorter routes over the Arctic and Antarctic due to cold weather effecting flights as well as having to effect rescue over such inhabited areas (what about the oceans?!). Another reason that is given is that airlines would be required to carry special survival equipment (jackets, boots?), even though thousands of hours of flight time and fuel consumption would be saved by going direct instead of Westward and Eastward directions.

“If Earth was a ball there are several flights in the Southern hemisphere which would have their quickest, straightest path over the Antarctic continent such as Santiago, Chile to Sydney, Australia. Instead of taking the shortest, quickest route in a straight line over Antarctica, all such flights detour all manner of directions away from Antarctica instead claiming the temperatures too cold for airplane travel! Considering the fact that there are plenty of flights to/from/over Antarctica, and NASA claims to have technology keeping them in conditions far colder (and far hotter) than any experienced on Earth, such an excuse is clearly just an excuse, and these flights aren’t made because they are impossible.”


2. Emergency landings

This video on YouTube lets you see 6 flights that had to make an emergency landing which would not be possible on a globe model.


3. Commercial airplane crashes

Again a video. This time of commercial airplane crashes.



4. The moon landing hoax

There is mountains of evidence that we never went to the moon. And that it has been filmed in Hollywood. I will not go any further into this one, but if you still believe in fairytales then you could start with this documentary.


5. The ISS hoax

Just like the moon landings. The "ISS" is filmed in Hollywood. It is a Freemason conspiracy.


6. There is no "space"

7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.

A piece of the firmament has been found.

Since you are already a believer. It wouldn't. It's just a global conspiracy of satanic Freemasons to make sure as few as possible people believe in Christ.
Is there any benefit in believing the Earth is actually flat?

Does this belief change anything in people's day to day lives?

Why don't they just fly straight?

They do fly straight (with some slight deviation sometimes to avoid unfavourable winds). If you mark the route on a globe, you can see that.

In addition to this. I didn't know they flew directly. But that doesn't make any difference

It completely demolishes your argument, of course.

But you're trolling, aren't you? I guess the same is true for your other threads.

No. It does not since you all are believers. It is just a satanic worldwide conspiracy to "hide" God.
Because a flat earth model is definite proof of an intelligent creator.

This Satanic worldwide conspiracy must be doing a pretty good job since I've never seen him and believe the earth is round.

Have you seen the photos of all the other planets in our solar system? What do you think of them?

A flat earth is so easy to disprove - on your own. You don't need to take anyone else's word, flight paths, documentaries, etc. How to prove the earth is not flat? Simply earn yourself a pilot's license and fly in one direction long enough until you're back at your starting point. Game over.

Therein lies the rub...could a person of the "flat-earth" mindset have the knowledge to pass the tests required to earn a pilots license? lol

The first two maps you show are both flat. I know you probably don't want to support the global globe industry, but buy yourself a globe and a piece of string, and see how all these routes look on a globe.

The "planets" are 7 angels that disobeyed God, the 7 wandering stars. As described in Enoch. Calling God a liar?

Here's a quick summary


Satan tells Jesus that he's willing to give Jesus the entire riches of the earth if Jesus just bows before him. Thus the devil controls the earth.

And satan despises man. So he wants to see as many humans go to hell.

The greatest trick the devil has ever pulled, is convincing the world he doesn't exist.

Even Ted Gunderson, former FBI boss told television that there is a satanic shadow government.


You have been lied to your entire life. A lie told once is a lie. But a lie told a thousand times becomes truth.

One problem that seems to confuse people is the "projection" of spherical surface onto a flat surface in the form of a map. This cannot be done without introducing a distortion. This can be likened to very carefully peeling an orange all in one piece and then trying to flatten the whole thing out. This cannot be done without a good deal of stretching (which doesn't work well with orange peels) or by cutting the peel strategically to reduce the stretching. The article below details a number of projections that have been attempted over the centuries:

List of map projections - Wikipedia

The Mercator projection is one of the earliest and most common but it is also one of the most distorted. It is reasonably accurate close to the equator but moving north and south the distortion eventually becomes extreme. Greenland and Africa appear to be the same size but in reality Greenland is only 1/6 the size of Africa.

We all know that the shortest distance between two points on a flat surface is the straight line connecting them. However on a spherical surface a straight line can only connect them by boring through the body of the sphere. If we are restricted just to the surface of the sphere then the shortest distance is actually an arc (try this with a string on a globe) which is sometimes termed a "great circle route". When we try to map a great circle route onto a flat map it comes as no surprise that it projects as a curve giving the mistaken illusion that it is not actually the shortest distance.

Were you aware that Satan is a liar.

the Bible does not say the earth is flat.
Why do you want to insist on that?
