So does the earth still revolve around the sun if it’s flat? And how does a flat earth make sense? I’ve never heard of or seen another flat planet. In fact, I don’t think I’ve ever seen any flat space-faring object

That is what the earth looks like from the moon. The only difference is there is no motion.
What do you mean by no motion? The astronauts were able to see the earth rotating.

Flat earth is a completely different paradigm. It's not a disk floating in space, but rather what once used to be known as biblical cosmology. It's just simply going back to what the people of God once knew but have forgotten. You can't try to fit it into the errant heliocentric model because it is not born of that model.

You should look at his own words concerning how the image was made. He didn't start with a spherical object. He started with strip satellite photos and then stitched them together and then filled in the blanks. He even mentions that he made the earth the way he 'imagined' it would look. He didn't know. That pic is nothing more than the result of someone else's imagination.
The other photographs posted however are not the result of someone's imagination.

I wanted to create this topic since it came up in another one,.. now does this look flat to anybody? (There is also no evidence of the earth being flat in the Bible.) Hehe,.. I always pictured God spinning the earth around on His thumb. :D

So how do you believe science's globe earth and still say you believe the creation account given to man by God in Genesis 1. Because they are not in agreement.

God speaks of creating a heaven and earth no mention of an outer space/universe and actually there is throughout the Bible not one single mention of God creating a universe.

In Genesis 1:6 God creates a raqia (dome) that divides waters

Genesis 1:7 the raqia (dome) is seen as separating waters, waters below the raqia and waters above the raqia (dome)

In Genesis 1:8 the dome is called heaven (the sky) By God.

In Genesis 1:9 God gathers the waters into one place (and not many oceans scattered over a globe). With the dry land (as in a single piece of land) appearing, and that land is one piece of land not land as in different continents. So there is a single large piece of land surrounded by water.

Genesis 1:14 God creates lights and places these light in the raqia (dome) of the heavens. These light also have a time keeping purpose.

Genesis 1:15 states these lights are created also to give light on the earth. Nothing is said about these lights lighting up an outer space or even other planets (which in The Bible there is no mention of God creating a planet, only the sun, moon and stars)

Genesis 1:16 states that God created two great lights, again that is lights, not a great light and a large rock that reflects the suns light. The moon is a created light by God.

Genesis 1:17 these lights are stated to be place (by God) in the raqia (dome) that is over the earth, and again it is stated they are to give light on the earth.

So your argument is if it isn't written in the Bible it isn't true? So what's gravity then? A figment of one's imagination? As well as there being other planets in outer space? There's not enough information ever to fit inside one single book.

What about what is written in the Bible and that was the majority of my post, about the descriptions given in Genesis . Example where the Bible states God created two lights.

What does that have to do with whether or not the earth is flat?

Where are the planets in the Bible? Or the universe? ( Is Heb 11:3 a proper translation? 165. aión) Why is Sun, Moon, and stars mentioned respectively if the sun is a star? Sure science has ALL the answers, (except for COVID-19).

Why no video of earth, when they landed on the moon? Was it too hard to turn around and film during those 21 hours and 36 minutes?

So there was no room to add planets to the sun, moon and stars. You mean the word planet was just to large to fit in the Bible or When God states He created the heaven and earth there was no room to add universe, the word universe just took up to much space.

The flat earth is more than just is the earth flat. The whole creation is in play, and the question is who do you believe lying science or the Bible.

Because like i stated in my first post they, science and The Bible are not in agreement. You can try and avoid this by trying to distract the issue by statements like, what does this and that have to do with a flat earth.

But the point, as a whole is either the Bible is giving the true description of Gods creation or science is, but they both can not be, as they do not agree.

Umm yeah that's not answering my question at all. You say they're in disagreement but you aren't telling me how.

I pointed one out and you just said that has nothing to do with the flat earth.

Again i will repeat this the Bible states God created two great lights sun and moon.

Science states that the moon is not a light but reflects the suns light.

Another one, the Bible states that the sun, moon and stars are placed in the raqia (dome) over the earth between two bodies of water, one body of water above the raqia and another body of water below the raqia (the ocean).

Science states that the sun moon and stars are millions/trillion of miles out in outer space

They exist, but you'd just call them fake, so what's the point?
