• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

Sorry - I don't know what you mean.

In response to @David Lamb's comment of:
But as I have said, perspective makes things look smaller and smaller, the further they are from the observer, so are you claiming that Cornwall is so small, and/or so far from where you live, that perspective cause it to be invisible?

You said, not even answering in full mind you:

That's right until it dosn't apper to be there anymore.

To which I asked:
Does that inability to see stop at roughly three miles?

So... does it stop at roughly three miles?

You live in Oz, maybe you can explain this.

Yep, and the only way you can see the entire 90 miles of road is from an elevation of 5400 ft. Any lower and some of the road is hidden behind the horizon, just like in the picture above where way less than 90 miles is visible. Good grief, who are the idiots that put these memes together.
Yes again, so the only way you could see the whole length of the bridge is from an elevation of just under 7000 ft. Any lower and some of the bridge will be hidden behind the horizon. Whoever created this meme is a moron.

Isn't this your thread? Aren't you reading the posts? A couple of the questions I directly asked you. So please don't treat me like an idiot.

Just see posts 1262, 1319 and 1324.

Any time you're ready, cariad.

Except for very large objects which would still be visible to the naked eye, apart from the fact that they are hidden behind the curvature of the earth. Objects like the Isle of Man for example.

C'mon, Apple. Think about each of them and give us your answer.,
I admire your optimism - I suspect the answer will be to look for a YouTube clip that "explains" it.

Sorry - but I think you may have your page numbers wrong.
He didn't say "page number", he said "post number."
For example, Post 1324 says;
Funnily enough I drove down that 90 mile road two weeks ago. Here's a piccie I took with my drone (video won't upload):

View attachment 373516

It's a straight road. No bends or curves. The higher the drone went, the further I could see. Funny that. And if I get the drone to look out to sea at around 1,000m up (well away from civilisation where there may be restrictions) then you can see ships in the distance. But as the drone drops they dissapear over the horizon.

Why do you think that happens?

Oh, another thing. I've now driven across the continent north to south and east to west. The difference in distance is a few hundred kms. Your flat maps show Australia about 5x as wide in width compared to height.

Your flat earth map is very wrong indeed.
