<staff edit>The ancient Greeks knew the Earth was a globe and had the size within a few hundred miles.
Dig a hole 20 feet deep, have a plumb-bob hanging in the center, at sunset (or as soon as the stars are visible) note the stars and their positions that are "straight up" from the bottom of the hole. Walk 100 miles away from your present position (might take a few days but that's okay) and repeat the procedure. Note that there is a difference in what "straight up' is. The angle of the difference can be calculated and a rough determination of the circumference of the globe also. If the world was flat the plumb-bobs would be parallel, they never are, nor can they be.
That was late to the party evidence, as civilizations had come and gone that covered the globe, and traded around the globe, and built great civilizations over the entire globe that knew the world was a globe, and who had descended, as tribes, from one of Noah's three sons [world means globe, for one, in Hebrew].
Civilizations rise, and fall, and not even the names of their kings is remembered, but the Word of God from the beginning shows a created globe of waters, in Genesis 1. with the not yet stretched out heavens [stretched out from the earth between the divided in two waters of creation on day 2] circling the waters of the globe on day 1, as evening and morning, making one day.

What would be the point of such an absurd conspiracy?
Good and valid question.
Answer would be the great deception so that all the world will follow the beast, and the false messiah claiming to be God will be believed.

...Any fool can prove the world is a globe with little effort.
Have you never seen a world map?...
And they do every day, ....... so ? The devil when he tricks the masses has impeccable credentials (PhDs, Doctorates, Seminaries, Congresses, Nobel Prizes, ) and even 'miracles' .
That doesn't make it true or false.
"Man's evidence" is no evidence at all, and is often WORSE than how it was before "man's evidence" was ever introduced" --
-- IF someone believes God and God's Word they know then that man is evil and deceptive, society is tricky and blind and evil and pernicious(death dealing, trying to kill all).


Good and valid question.

Why would anyone follow the beast for the last 4000 years ?
And then again TODAY, until Jesus returns ?
Oh, yes, "deception". Good and right answer.

Yes they could.
They have Christians believe in evolution, and how about 9/11 ?

BUT:


not in this case.
I have to admit i find myself on the fence on this...
First off: Why would the Bible consistently describe a flat earth, when it's a sphere?
So i'm taking in arguments people produce for a flat earth now, see where i end up.
I'm used to cognitive dissonance, so that doesn't bother me too much. :D

That only denotes the center of gravity, not the earths shape.
A perfectly flat surface one mile thick would also have the same result.
What?? No it wouldn't. A perfectly flat surface a mile thick, the lines would be parallel, but that's not what we see, they both hang toward a single centre of gravity.

Since Yhwh is Faithful and True, (and it's HIS WORD )
Perfectly Righteous in all of His Ways, and in everything He does,
ask Him. (He really, really, really does know the answer; since most all the world rejects Him, and men know virtually NOTHING compared to Him........ He is the One to Trust)

It's preparation.
it's the agenda of the serpent.
And then again TODAY, until Jesus returns ?

Maybe you have noticed how many times we are warned not to be deceived, and that many will be deceived.
In all, 'Copernicus-ism' could well be the Trojan Horse for Darwinism, and beyond the global scale.
Think about it.

it's the agenda of the serpent.
Actually, WHOSE BOOK do you (we) trust???
Yhwh's BOOK - this is all written out in Yhwh's BOOK -

the enemy is simply , used, for His Purpose. (Yhwh NEVER goes by the enemy's agenda - it is exactly the OPPOSITE of that.)
Maybe you have noticed how many times we are warned not to be deceived, and that many will be deceived.
Maybe you have noticed how many times I have posted that Yhwh warns everyone that all mankind is deceived/ deluded/ blind/ and helpless (without Christ) ?

Think about it.
AMEIN ! GOOD POINTS (from Scripture).
'Selah' (dwell on what Scripture says).

The serpent, the principalities of the sky, is still the enemy though.
(Yhwh NEVER goes by the enemy's agenda - it is exactly the OPPOSITE of that.)
YHWH allows it.

Then we agree. :)

And what if this whole freemasonic kabal is just a hoax and / or a false flag?
This includes NASA too, and they're not really that credible anymore...
Why aren't NASA credible, pray tell?

Are you suggesting anyone who has ever circumnavigated the globe is "in on it"?

What on Earth does the one have to do with the other?

How would having a population duped into thinking the Earth was a globe help the rise of an evil politician in any way?
You guys need to lay off the conspiracy theorizing.

In obedience and subject to Jesus Messiah, YES< TOTALLY ! > .....
And,
yes, the enemy rules over the sons of disobedience (most all the population today),
just as once he ruled also over the children of God (us/ the Redeemed/ remnant).

Step 1. Convince people the flat Earth is a globe,

Step 2.

Step 3. Profit!
