  • 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.

Yes they have. For example, here is a quote of one of Strong in Him's posts:

And this is only 5, I understand that some of the verses don't relate to a F/E but the majority do.

Another just so statement that is baseless. No rational discourse, just opinions and feelings.

Not at all, the reason is to get my point across to as many as possible.
But your point is wrong!

I seriously doubt that newcomers/non Christians are expecting to learn the truth about the shape of the earth - especially not in a Conspiracy Theories forum.
They would only have to read a few pages, anyway, to see how ridiculous your arguments are.

So why include them on a poster which is titled "200 verses for a Flat Earth"?
Those 5 headings each had several references after them, so it could be 15-20 verses that are totally wrong. And that doesn't include the nonsense about "Matthew's Bible.

Well, I looked at the first seven quotes, 27 actual verses, and not one of them mentioned the earth's shape.

Let's look at some bible verses from the other end of the list:

“Then he said to me, “These words are faithful and true.” And the Lord God of the holy prophets sent His angel to show His servants the things which must shortly take place.” (Re 22:6 NKJV)

“Then He who sat on the throne said, “Behold, I make all things new.” And He said to me, “Write, for these words are true and faithful.”” (Re 21:5 NKJV)

“Now I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse. And He who sat on him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and makes war.” (Re 19:11 NKJV)

““And to the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write, ‘These things says the Amen, the Faithful and True Witness, the Beginning of the creation of God:” (Re 3:14 NKJV)

“So they said to Jeremiah, “Let the LORD be a true and faithful witness between us, if we do not do according to everything which the LORD your God sends us by you.” (Jer 42:5 NKJV)

““They shall spread them before the sun and the moon and all the host of heaven, which they have loved and which they have served and after which they have walked, which they have sought and which they have worshiped. They shall not be gathered nor buried; they shall be like refuse on the face of the earth.” (Jer 8:2 NKJV)

“And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the LORD.” (2Ki 21:5 NKJV)

““who has gone and served other gods and worshiped them, either the sun or moon or any of the host of heaven, which I have not commanded,” (De 17:3 NKJV)

““And [take heed], lest you lift your eyes to heaven, and [when] you see the sun, the moon, and the stars, all the host of heaven, you feel driven to worship them and serve them, which the LORD your God has given to all the peoples under the whole heaven as a heritage.” (De 4:19 NKJV)

None of those 9 verses mentions the shape of the earth. So if none of the first 7 bible quotes, (27 verses) and none of the last 9 verses in the 200-plus list you keep posting, even mentions a flat earth, that doesn't bode well for the remainder, does it?

You'd have to ask Nathan Roberts abot this.
Why? You are the person who keeps posting the list, so you should be ready to answer this obvious anomaly of the fact that many of the verses quoted say absolutely nothing about the earth's shape.

I actually tried to find him on the internet. It seems he hasn’t posted anything for at least two years.

You should take into account that believing you have a monopoly on truth and calling everybody with opposing views liars or deceived is a red flag that a cult mentality is involved. I’m not saying that the Flat Earth Society is a cult, because I can’t seem to find enough information. However, any group with an exclusive set of believes can have cult-like functions. I know several Roman Catholics that are “Latin Mass Only” types. Some just prefer the Latin Mass, but some think that the Mass in another language is invalid. Even people who have not studied the psychology of cults can often spot cult-like operations because of the vanity of exclusiveness. Latin Only Catholics are not necessarily a cult, but some members create that environment. I think the Flat Earthers do the same.

BM Furball quoted:

Last week I had the opportunity to sit down and talk with the Biblical Flat Earther, Nathan Roberts. We talk about how he believes the Bible supports the flat earth and his opinion on science. This interview has a lot about religion, so if this is not your cup of tea you may want to skip this week. Religion is an area that I prefer not to attack a person on. Comment on his beliefs of science and biblical support of flat earth, but don't attack him solely on his beliefs in a deity. Derogatory comments about any religion will be removed.

That video is 6 years old so it was not actually last week this conservation took place.

I have always had a very strong distrust of Nathan Roberts. his website https://www.flatearthdoctrine.com/
Does not go to flatearthdoctrine.com but to Biblical Cosmology

It looks like he was just another person who was looking to capture fame on the tail coat of flat earth.

Here is a, looks like abandoned youtube page FlatEarthDoctrine

Obviously, I can't.

But I can ask you why you choose to repost it - when you have been told that the verses are wrong, or do not say what you think they say.

And yet this is the 2nd time that D Taylor - your fellow flat earther - has had to correct you about your "evidence" or to say that it does flat earthers no favours.

I've said it before; you post things without any idea of what you are posting.
