  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Flat Earth Theory.

And a hear say by a few folks is ?
See, anything supposedly supporting flat earth gets a pass, but anything that doesn't support flat earth is automatically suspect.

I disagree, your the ones saying it's fake, I say prove it.
Don’t be ridiculous. If you post it, show the source. I’ve posted evidence from people whose job it is to compile the writings & artifacts of Tesla. You’ve posted a meme.

Yet again you’ve managed to prove all by yourself that you are clueless about any of the topics you post.

So you're saying I can post a Quote of you saying whatever I want, and I don't have to prove it, but it's up to you to prove you didn't say it?
Cool.

This is not evidence, it's probably from a few guys who are against the notion of a flat earth.

Now you're getting even more stupid. A meme is just that, a meme. The people quoted in my post are genuine Tesla experts. You're obviously not.

There's obviously no point in pursuing any logical conversation with you, because right now, you are being deliberately argumentative without anything to to back you up. You sound just like a grumpy rebellious teenager!

Okay, maybe the meme I posted was fake, who knows, all's I know is that Tesla was a brilliant scientist who had a photographic memory plus in his younger years had access to the Vatican library.
What he knew about the Universe & earth was second to none other than God.

How do you know ?
Because the people are named and they are who the article says they are:




Now where does your meme come from? Let me guess, a flat earther!

Yes he was, but he never said what you claim. Otherwise you would have found it by now. You haven't found it because it doesn't exist in any of what he said.

No - actually it came from 'Nikola Tesla's Quotes About Earth.' Try searching.

Try that yourself!

Post the link, because when I search for it it doesn't come up - apart from all the websites that debunk your claim that is.... and memes! I can virtually guarantee that your meme will not be in any verified quote from Tesla, because I did search.

It's certainly not on this website:

So here's the nearest I could get to the origin of your quoted meme, and it certainly does seem to have originated with a flat earther named Darrell Fox.... and he never even claimed it was from Tesla!


Two pieces of advice: don’t post something unless you can link to the source.

And learn about the topic before you post. Posting YouTube videos and memes on topics you know nothing about only exposes your ignorance on those topics.

You never seem to understand anything beyond the claims you make. And when someone challenges your claims it seems that you can’t answer in any rational way.

So you post a meme to try to prove your point. Then, less than 12 hours later say, "ok so maybe it was fake; who knows?"
Firstly, you are just proving that you post things without bothering to check if they are correct.
Secondly, it seems that it is quite easy to check to see whether or not Tesla said something.
That has been done; you are saying that the quotes are probably from a few guys who are against the notion of a flat earth, and doubt that the experts are who they say they are.

What if I made a statement on one of these forums, maybe "Andy Murray never won Wimbledon". Dozens of people replied "yes, he did; here are the links", and my answer was "well they're probably fake, but maybe he did, who knows?" what would that tell you about me?
That I don't know what I'm talking about/am ignorant? That I can't be bothered to check whether my own statement is true, or not? That I am lying?
And, if I can do such a thing, would you be inclined to trust anything else I might say?

This whole thread just falls within the scope of the first line of my posting signature below.

But I'll throw one tidbit out: Why does moon dust so seriously damage everything it comes into contact with? It was a real problem on the missions.

Carry on...
