You're not finding it by closing yourself off to anything other than what you think either.



Yeah, good question. What will it change?



And you think that's going to change your life?



No, that's just it... Nothing in my life would change.

However, if they are lying to us about this, what else is not true.

I always go back to the ramifications on the biblical scripture when looking at the FE model.

Let me put it this way. On my way home today, on a talk radio station, they were mentioning that Canada has minted a silver coin commemorating a UFO siting.
I cannot remember the year, but it was in Manitoba and the RCMP have a file on the events. Now, the mint is making a coin.

Now, earlier this year, FOX news ran a story of a US fighter pilot that came out and stated that he saw and chased a UFO. There were actually two separate stories on different events. The past Minister of Defense for Canada also gave a talk at a political function, may have been the UN, I can't remember.... saying that UFO's are as real as the jet planes we fly on and that the forces have known about them for decades..

Do you see where this is going? UFO's, other planets with other life... more advanced life.. an impending conflict or encounter?

So, I believe that Satan is behind all of these so called UFO's and paranormal events in the sky... that, by the way, are becoming more and more frequent and recorded and people are getting accustomed to them..

Satan, IMO, is fabricating a lie of a inter stellar race that are coming here and will do things that are contrary to the bible... leading to the doubting of God and all that goes with the Bible.

Meanwhile I believe that these beings are demonic and inter dimensional..

IF.... IF... the earth is a globe... the story is workable...

IF....IF... the earth is a snow globe, flat, enclosed by a dome.... the whole idea shatters...


That is the only importance of this whole idea......to me.

I am sure Flat-Earthers would love to call this issue a debate. It gives them the appearance of legitimacy which they have not earned.
I'm sure that they do call it a debate and they are having them with other globe earth believers...

This poorly made video that starts out screaming about the earth being flat--is this the sort of evidence you look for on the internet and find convincing?

Pages of text with no video of anything read by a monotone computer voice - not exactly a gold standard for evidence versus a peer-reviewed scientific paper or live footage from the ISS now is it?

I vividly remember the live TV broadcast of Bob Lazar's disclosure back in 1989. It was one of the most exciting and sorely needed classified information leaks in history.

Have always had a fascination with UFO's and how they directly related to the Old Testament.

But for those that haven't seen it, be prepared for the truth.

Keep in mind, this was 30 years ago.


So what's the info that Bob doesn't want to reveal in his opening statement?

Evil angels gave us this technology; the fallen.

Just want to make an additional point so that peeps have a much better perspective of how much the of general population, both here and other countries, are completely oblivious to what's really going on.

Area 51 - Wikipedia

Base built in 1955

Official disclosure in 2013

The United States Military and Government denied the existence of this base for 58 years!

If the general population had any idea of the sheer amount of evil that's been and is still being hidden from us, there wouldn't be a United States. You'd have full-scale anarchy and everyone on Capitol Hill would be dead in a week.

Perhaps you'd like to see some recently disclosed evidence?

army in space - Google Search

Anybody wanna guess what year this branch of the Military was actually formed, but is only now being disclosed?


It wasn't formed during the Bush administration, it's been in existence since the 50's. This is nothing compared to what being hidden from us, but if you believe in scripture, it's true.

Read closely!

Exodus 20:5 Hebrew Text Analysis

Here are the Biblical references to the "Flat Earth" below. But the above image is the accurate depiction. The Earth is only seen as being flat when looking at it from a cross-section point of view. The Earth and all of the planetary bodies and their satellites....are all hollow. Leaked classified information can be shown proving it.

The flaming sword that turns in every direction is an unseen shield that covers the entrances at the poles. Both of which are no-fly zones. There is documented evidence (prior to the no-fly zone) of planes flying over these areas and exploding when coming in contact with this unseen force.

I liked the first picture which shows the inside of the earth, complete with a "Space ship base to and from other galaxies", and "Saucer to Venus", and the "Dero Caves with stolen saucers".
Truly scientific stuff here! :rolleyes:
No, it's not biblical either. After all, the FE crowd says there are no other galaxies. In fact, they say there are no galaxies at all, so why would there be a space ship base to go to them??? Same goes for the Saucer to Venus, since Venus is supposedly just a light up at the top of our dome.

I have heard a couple people creating posts about the flat earth theory, can anyone give some opinions on this theory please
i want a different perspective on what people belive

thank you
camila smith <3
Ok My opinion is....Flat Earth theory is pure stupidity...Take an airplane ride at thirty thousand feet you can see the curvature of the Earth. Use a telescope...Look at the moon and the other planets. They are round balls, why would the Earth be different? It would have to follow different rules....It does not. It follows the same ruled as the other planets.

I proposed a flat earth experiment.
Ask a contractor to build a road "Flat and Level" that is one mile long.
Then send a group of college educated people to each end with their
own bag of marbles. Ask them to check if the road in flat and level
at their end. Both will declare the road is indeed, "Flat and Level".
For this reason 100% of people experience a flat earth. Even another
group in the middle would not notice the 4 inch bulge.

But a few scientists would run around like headless chickens telling
everyone they are stupid for thinking the road was flat and level.
I'm sorry kids...That is not proof of a flat Earth. It only proof of size of the Earth.

No, it's not biblical either.

If you have a better explanation for the commandments, I'm all eyes.

Exodus 20:4 Hebrew Text Analysis

"Waters UNDER the earth"

Exodus 20:5 Hebrew Text Analysis

"of those who hate me"

And I don't suppose that you believe in the Sons of God either, huh?

Genesis 6:2 Hebrew Text Analysis

Genesis 6:4 Hebrew Text Analysis

Where do you suppose they went when the Great Deluge came?

And you obviously don't believe in the Garden of Eden either, is that right?

Sorry, Denadii, But you have a lot of reading to do.

NASA used to say that you needed to go to 35,000 feet to see the curve. Now they have changed their mind and said 65,000 feet.

However, this is not a good measure or determinant of the earths curve as it is not even evident on amateur rocket and balloon launches to 100,000 feet, when photographed or video was taken without a fish eye lens.

To calculate the amount of curve the earth should show, we need to take the distance in miles and square it... then times this number by 8 inches.

This would mean 8 inches in the first mile...16.666 feet by five miles.......66.66 feet by 10 miles and a whopping 1666.66 feet by 50 miles.

In my opinion, this is a lot faster of a curve than I would have thought. These numbers are also different than calculating the "hump" between two observers. This is just how fast the earth curves away from you as you look out over a perfectly flat surface... like a large lake or ocean.

Do you not think that this should be visible quite easily? Well, There are many things that are visible and unobstructed by the curve in areas where we can see 50 miles over a body of water.

This is what got me curious in the first place.

It is evidence for a flat earth. 99.98% flat.
There are similar computations that determine
that the Cosmos folds back onto itself and is not infinite.

Most of the people on earth don't get plane rides.
Most people experience a flat earth.
You don't change lives much with spherical information.

This is what got me curious in the first place.

If you put your eye pupil at 1 millimeter higher that the ocean water level, your view will be obstructed.

If standing, you can see the base inches of an object at water level 3 miles away.
The taller the object, the greater the distance you can see most of it.

As for making graven images of things in or beneath the earth--How would we know what those things looked like to make images of them if they are beneath the earth, assuming that's to be taken literally?

Waters under the earth could refer to just that, as anyone with access to wells understand.

Sons of God? How does that relate? I believe in the angelic realm.

I believe the Garden of Eden existed.

Obstructed by what? In order to see fifty miles at sea, I would have to be 2000 feet above the ocean. So if that's the case the Earth is not flat for that distance. I stand six feet tall...That means I can see a whole three miles at sea...The Earth is NOT flat.

I didn't propose the OP question. But you are correct.
OP writers should not argue against opinions if requested.
