Does Modern Science Align with the Bible?

Just as I thought: one who imagines himself to be refuting things he knows nothing about with nothing more in his arsenal than videos of camera footage from balloons and rocket launches and accusations of paganism. Did the ancients have balloons and rockets with video cameras mounted on them?

What I offered in the previous post is undeniable empirical visual evidence that may be seen from the ground, has no need to be filtered through a camera lens, fish-eye or not, and may be seen with the natural eye just about anywhere on earth during either of the two astronomical equinoxes. And we know that the ancient Egyptians had obelisks and other similar devices like shadow clocks which they used for dividing up the day, (telling time).

I myself also happen to know that the ancient Hebrews also had similar technology even before Egypt.

Quote's not working ...

I can't tell by looking how far the sun is, but it does not look close. And if it is as big as they say and as far away then it would likely look relatively small. But I leave that to the mathematicians to figure out.

I was raised in the Southwest and spent most of my adult life in the Pacific Northwest. The sun definitely LOOKS closer up here! But to say it is just because it looks like that- I'm not prepared to say that. And it may look closer up here, but I can tell you for a fact it makes things hotter down there!

And there's a huge flaw in your argument: the ancients were able to accurately tell time with Sundials and predict eclipses using a geocentric model. This would throw a wrench into the heliocentric model because if sundials and eclipses are supposed "proofs" of a globe earth then it follows that the Babylonians and other ancient astronomers should have gotten incorrect readings.

But with your simple reasoning just because I can't explain to an atheist how God created everything: therefore God must not exist. You believe that heliocentrism is based in "factual truth" yet the founder of it and some other well known adherents clearly say that it is based in their mystery religions.

Otherwise I have flown to Alaska, Japan, Washington, Texas, and the Philippines, failed to observe any curvature to and from all these trips. The videos I posted from globers clearly show the earth at rest with a plane surface...anyone viewing the video can see the truth of this...ne need for elaborate explanations or loads of charts and formulas...just simple scientific observation:


Modern Science claim:
Earth is a globe.

My observation:
Independent pro globe high altitude videos show it as a plane surface.

Conclusion:
Modern science claim refuted.

Don't worry brother I won't ask unrealistic things of you that is not within your circle of knowledge to prove. I'm simply asking that you use your eyes and common sense and ask yourself:

What do these high altitude videos show the observer about the nature of the earth?

I also find it sickening that more people in the Church are also allowing themselves to be fooled into thinking that evolution and creation are compatible...which they are most definitely not...

Personally I think many Christians get so hung up on trying to defend Christianity that they overlook the obvious. Creation is a miracle and miracles are by definition unexplainable by science. We don’t need to defend Christianity with science, they are polar opposites. The sooner accept that the sooner we will understand that truth is truth regardless of the evidence and we don’t need to prove anything to anyone. If a person is incapable of believing in miracles then he is incapable of believing the word of God. It’s that simple.

I could clearly see the curvature of the earth flying to & from the Philippines.

Well as I've posed to brothers @dani'el and @daq please provide documented evidence contrary to what I've shared in the videos from pro globalists that the earth is a sphere. Those same videos show the earth to be at rest with a plane surface.

I'd caution you brother to be careful of statements you make because Jesus Christ said that not only will we be judged for our deeds but our words will either justify or condemn us at the Final Judgment:

"But I tell you that every careless word that people speak, they shall give an accounting for it in the day of judgment. For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.”
Matthew 12:36-37 NASB1995

If people are going to be making claims then they had better be able to back them up...otherwise we'll be seen as speaking idle words.

Ok I have a few questions about your video. Where’s Europe? Where’s Asia? Where’s Australia? Where’s Africa? Why don’t we see any of these continents? You do realize that the Earth rotates one revolution every 24 hours right? So that’s 6 hours just to see 1/4 of a rotation. Your video footage is 15 minutes and doesn’t stay still. So if the footage was still for 15 minutes you would see 1/96th of a rotation but because it keeps moving your never going to notice that small of a rotation.To put that into perspective it would be like watching a clock for 15 minutes and noticing the minute hand moving from 12:00 halfway to 12:01. You’ll never be able to notice that small of a movement on that wobbly camera on that rocket.

That’s a two way street brother. There are plenty of videos of ships sailing over the horizon disappearing from bottom to top. There are plenty of photos taken from high elevations looking out towards the ocean that don’t show islands that are 60 miles away. The evidence is out there, the problem is some people close their eyes and don’t want to see it.

Take a clock and glue a ball on the hour hand at the center of the clock and watch how fast the ball rotates then realize that the ball is spinning 24 times faster than the earth.

Im sure you’ve probably seen this before but this is an example of the curvature of the earth as we watch a ship sail over the horizon and back again in time lapse.

Degrees is just a unit of measurement. A person could say a circle has 4 degrees or 100 degrees it’s just a unit of measurement. In a 4 degree circle 1 degree would be 1/4th of a circle. In a 100 degree circle 25 degrees would be 1/4th of a circle. One could say that a circle has 12 degrees so 3 degrees would be at 3 o clock on a clock.

A degree is a unit of measurement. 360 degrees means the circle is divided into 360 equal portions. Using 1/10th of a degree means that your dividing a circle into 3600 equal portions.

Brother those aren't my own personal videos...I thought I made it clear that these are uploaded by pro-globers? I'm not arguing from perspective, or formulas...I showed straight forward videos of balloons and a rocket over +109,000 Feet in the air...and neither show a moving earth or a curve. Everyone has their opinion on vanishing points but, the video evidence I provided from pro-globers fail to support a heliocentric model

Ok but in your post you did say that you couldn’t see any rotation of the earth on that video. I was explaining why.

The sun stopped relevant to their perspective. That’s what it means. What actually happened was the earth stopped spinning which would make the sun stop moving from their perspective. You do know that when it’s night time in America it’s day time in the Philippines right? That can’t happen on a flat earth.
