Is anyone going to attempt to explain this?

is anyone going to actually explain how the moon provides its own light??!!
Nope.

Flat Earthers love to come up with all sorts of things, but in my experience, explaining how any of it actually works is a low priority for them.

That’s why there’s no real flat earth model - everything they claim about the way the world works just raises more questions, and they don’t answer them.

Do you really need to keep asking this? The idea comes from flat Earthers. How does a flat Earth even work? A flat Earth throws physics out the window completely. Everything is enabled and powered by God. It's just freakin' magic.

Not relative to sunlight.

Intensity of light will affect plant growth. Within reason, more light leads to more growth, ... and less light leads to less growth.

As someone who has worked in the horticultural field, the key is sun.

Most plants need at least moderate sunlight to grow. Moonlight just won't cut it ...
Wow, you do know you're denying the most fundamental and elementary of agricultural precepts that dates back to the garden, and accepted as obvious fact to anyone who's ever watched plants grow? I'll be using your position as an example of the total blindness of the modern world.

Which agricultural precept? Please illuminate us agriculturally ignorant people.

Same area on the moon as photo i posted earlier , the two light areas can still be seen when the moon is lit. the areas are not any higher than their surroundings

Do you have an actual explanation for this phenomenon?

From your understanding, why are there occasional bright spots at the edge of the plane from light to dark?

we both agree they are there, I’ve given an explanation as to why, I haven’t heard an alternative from you. Now is your opportunity.

No it's 'freaking magic' how a spinning water ball can exist in a giant vacuum of space, moving at breakneck speeds in multiple directions, slung around the sun without ever looping off into space, and yet no evidence of motion or curvature can be found. 'Everything occurs as if the earth is at rest.' (Lorentz).

Show me how that spastic model can work by experimental means pls, including the 'planet' holding the water and atmosphere in place as it goes gyrating and wibbling around like a coked out homosexual chasing sin around a nightclub. I won't bother waiting, cause you can't, it's preposterous.

I couldn’t help but notice you still didn’t provide an explanation for how the moon is capable of producing its own light. Can you please do that?

What is the explanation for how the moon produces its own light, and what is the explanation for the phases of the moon?

Surely you have a belief about those two basic questions...

Wait, you're saying you DO have an explanation for the Moon generating it's own light? So you're just not revealing it for some reason?

Apologies to SPF, then.

(As to the rest of the quote, yeah, I guess gravity can seem pretty magical to those who don't want to learn anything about it.)

hi d taylor, I've asked a few times now for you to explain the reasoning behind light "spots" on the dark side of the moon right along the edge of where the light and dark meet and I still haven't heard a response yet.

I've provided an explanation, that being that the light is a higher elevated point where the sunlight is still being reflected. This would make sense as these bright spots are only ever located right at the line between light and shadow.

In fact, for people that hold to the notion that the moon provides its own lightsource, I think the photos you've shown on this issue actually raise a problem for you. What's your explanation?

I believe i have stated several time that the moon is emitting its own light. Confirmed by the Bibles witness that God created the moon as a light, to give light on the earth.

If you accept science lies over the Bibles witness that is your prerogative. I make no effort to force people to believe the Bibles evidence.
I have simply posted examples of photos of the moon and its light. Also how a light (bulb) emitting light as recorded/photographed by a camera duplicates exactly how the moons light responds exactly to the recording/photographing of its light being that these two light react exactly as each other.

When i have time i will try the same recording/photographing of a object reflecting light. To see if this object records/photographs reflected light as the the moon and the light being given off by the moon. To see if reflected light from an object, matches the moons light like the light from a light bulb matched the moons light.

It would be appropriate(for your beliefs) for you to present your own evidence instead simply just repeating sciences and NASA's lies.

Sigh... Yes,, you have stated numerous times you believe the moon emits it’s own light. What I’m trying to get out of you is an explanation as to HOW it accomplishes this.

We have a pretty good understanding of how the sun works and emits light. The moon on the other hand.... No explanation has been given yet.

1) Please explain how the moon produces its own light.

2) Please explain the phenomenon you’ve documented where their are points of light just across the “line” of where the moon goes from bright to dark. Why does this phenomenon occur? Why does it ONLY occur right on the edge of the light transition?

Please address these questions.

PS - your lightbulb and paper experiments are about as convincing as a first grade science experiment.

Sorry, I don't. Maybe someone can come up with an explanation of how the sun works, since the old 'nucular fusion' idea got trounced. Maybe electrical? Who could know but God?

No dude, the nucular reactor theory has been disproven. Just like evolution and big bang cosmology, they only persist as zombie theories because 'money makes the world go round'. But with Jesus opening our eyes, these tawdry lies are laid bare.

Can nobody explain how the moon produces its own light? Is there no explanation?

is there any explanation for why the self-producing light of the moon turns off as if it’s being blocked?

I understand scientifically how the sun produces it’s light. What’s the explanation for the moon producing it’s own light?

Anyone?
If one were to argue in favour of the idea would it be by some type of Bio luminescence although not connected to life taking place? I see no reason to believe the Moon creates it's own light though. When God said in the Bible he made two great lights I think he's referring to how an observer on the ground would practically see it not as an exact scientific declaration. The bottom line you've got two things which cause illumination for the Earth....the Sun and the Moon and of course the stars and planets to a degree.
