Flat Earth Theory.

[Apple Sky]

While the Earth's rotation does create a small outward "centrifugal force", this force is vastly weaker than the Earth's gravity. Calculations show that the Earth would need to spin over 17 times faster for this centrifugal force to overcome gravity and throw objects off its surface.
How fast would Earth need to spin for humans to be thrown into space?

Thanks, I'm trying to understand how the globe works.

I got to thinking - Why would God create everything circular, I was forgetting about the golden ratio ??
Maybe the world & the universe are spiraling.

Gravity is caused by the mass of an object, not its rotation. And the moon does rotate. Rotation is in sync with its orbit around the earth, hence it always keeps the same face towards earth. The phenomenon is called Tidal Locking:

Otherwise, excellent post.

Thank you for the corrections.

The earth does not travel around the sun, it is the sun, moon & the stars that travels in the firmament above the earth.
It is the firmament/dome that turns like a wheel, not the earth.
As for sunrise & sunsets that is just a matter of perspective.

Genesis begins from God's perspective. Darkness was upon the face of the deep. God surrounding the spherical earth. The deep waters from circumference to center.

The firmament mentioned in Genesis encased a portion of the waters that covered the earth in the beginning. God divided the waters from the waters and placed a divided portion in encasement above the spherical earth. So the earth was like a terrarium. No necessity for rain because the encased environment creates moisturized air.

At the flood of Noah that encased waters broke and fell to the earth to drown everything on the earth. All that is left of the former encasement is the ozone layer that has decreased over time.

The sun, moon and stars are not in the ozone layer area where the firmament once was. They are in the stellar heavens where all the other planets and star systems and galaxies reside. The sun is too hot, it's intensity would burn the earth to a crisp if it were no farther away than the ozone layer is. And it's gravity that keeps our planet and all in the solar system orbiting around it, the g's would be too great and pull the earth to it in collision if the sun were where the ozone layer is.

In perspective at a distance from earth from the moon, and from the satellites, the earth is curved., ie spherical, not flat.

If this is the case, then why did David mention the waters above 2,000 years later ?

Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens

Genesis does not mention a spherical earth.

FYI Live coverage of what's going on outside right now.

And if you think it's all CGI, go compare it to what you can see outside.

And of course we are able to calculate with precision, where and when people across the USA would experience the total eclipse, using the globe earth model orbiting the sun and the moon orbiting the earth. If the model was false that would not be possible.

There is no flat earth model which can predict where and when eclipses will be visible.

ECLIPSES EXPLAINED - Why or how can the moon be visible and away from the sun DURING an eclipse, as has happened many times in the past...???

Yeah nah. He makes a lot of false claims, particularly regarding the accuracy of pinpointing when and where an eclipse will be visible on a 'flat earth'. The Saros Cycle can only predict that an eclipse will occur on a particular day. It cannot predict exactly where it will be visible nor what precise time.

The globe earth and lunar orbit calculations are precise and can be calculated without any reference to previous eclipses, and give accurate times and locations. Flat earth calculations cannot do this.

With regards to lunar eclipses being visible when both the sun and moon are visible on opposite horizons, this is due to atmospheric refraction causing both to be visible despite physically being below their respective horizons. All of the nonsense on that video has been debunked.

What do you mean by refraction ?

Is THIS how the world will end? Scientists warn our solar system could be pulled into the gravity of a white dwarf star before being 'crushed and ground to dust'​

In a new study, scientists have warned that Earth's demise could be even more violent and chaotic than we thought.

What do you mean by refraction ?

Refraction | Definition, Examples, & Facts

Refraction, in physics, the change in direction of a wave passing from one medium to another caused by its change in speed. For example, the electromagnetic waves constituting light are refracted when crossing the boundary from one transparent medium to another because of their change in speed.

Depending on atmospheric conditions, the amount that light is bent when passing through the density gradient of our atmosphere can vary significantly, which is why some days you can see more of the Chicago skyline than on other days.

Thanks, I'm trying to understand how the globe works.

How the globe works?
There's hope for you yet.

Yes - But I'm finding it hard to get my head around it all.

Well done for trying.

 

[Phil G]

Yes - But I'm finding it hard to get my head around it all.

It’s a start, and I encourage you to persevere with your learning. God’s creation is truly awe-inspiring. Its size and beauty can never be exhausted.

Don’t expect to understand it all, otherwise you would be as God. That is why it can never be as simple as a flat plane covered by a dome. Everything that is discovered reveals more and more complexity. But the globe model of the earth came about through observation and discovery.

What is this invisible axis that the earth supposedly turns on ?

 

[Phil G]

What is this invisible axis that the earth supposedly turns on ?

It’s the line that runs from the North Pole through the earth to the South Pole. If you take a ball and rotate it with your hand, it rotates around an axis that runs through its centre. It’s not a physical axis, but the ball is rotating around a line through its centre.

Nah, it will simply be gone, and there will be a new heaven and a new earth.
