In another post, you said:
I'm not denying that man has been to the moon
and,
the only thing I've done is change my mind about the shape of the earth not about the moon walks.
It sounds like you still accept that people walked on the moon.
So why have you a) been questioning another moon video that was posted, saying "it depends how far up they were, b) been denying/contradicting the photos of earth that were taken as part of those moon landings?
People who have walked on the moon have naturally taken photos of what they could see from the moon. A moon trip is not like catching the number 11 bus; it's a once-in-a-lifetime trip. They had to apply, be assessed and be trained to be able to take part. It's possible that dozens applied; only a few were chosen. Of course they're going to want photos and souvenirs of everything - you would too if you had always wanted to be an astronaut and got to fulfill your dream.

So if you accept that people - Christians - walked on the moon then you accept the things that they saw while they were there.
Their photos show that the earth is a sphere.
And if you accept those, then why are you trying to prove that the experiment in Antarctica was fake? That was called the FINAL experiment because, from what I understand, both sides agreed that it was the question of the 24-hour sun that would solve things. Dean himself said, "if there is a 24-hour sun, the earth's a ball."
There IS a 24-hour sun, which conforms that the earth is a sphere/globe - just as was shown by the photos of earth taken from the moon.

If you accept the moon landings, you accept the photos they took - which were evidence of what they saw.
If you accept the photos they took, which show that the earth is a sphere, how come you are doing your best to prove that the Final Experiment failed and the earth is, in fact, flat?

Not that this has anything to do with the Christian faith.

So you think he shouldn't be anchored to anything? You think he should just get out of the rocket and float off into space?

I was on about when they were inside the spaceship,

Which means it had not yet sailed beyond the horizon.

How come we can see France from the White Cliffs of Dover with our eyes on a clear day ? Which I have seen myself many times.

Because you’re up a height which enables you see more over the earth’s curve than if you were at sea level, and it’s only about 30 miles away.

How come you can’t see Ireland 60 miles away yet you claim to see a ferry there?

YHVH says that YHVH Himself, Almighty Creator,

curses anyone who trusts man/ mankind/ flesh.
(including those who are "Christian" in name only, and those who are Christian by definition.

Right, so everyone then.

You think that God curses those he made in his image? His children who are serving him by using the gifts he has given to study theology, science etc?
You think the shape of the earth has anything to do with salvation, enables someone to be filled with the Spirit, helps them to pray and to read, and learn, Scripture?

I never said I could see a ferry at Ireland.
Well you certainly implied it. I said this to you:

"Watch a ferry as it heads towards Ireland. Then you just try to zoom it back in as it enters Dublin Bay!"

To which you replied:

"I have watched a ferry & I have zoomed it back in to focus."

That sounds like you watched a ferry enter Dublin Bay from Wales!

And if you are now saying you didn't, then that just means there comes a point when the ferry is no longer visible to you because it has gone below the horizon so that you can't zoom it back in again.

I said I have watched a ferry go out of sight & then have zoomed it back into sight, I didn't say where.

That's not what you said. You were specifically answering my suggestion that you zoom a ferry into view as it approaches Ireland entering into Dublin Bay. That gives you the "where". And if you can't do that then that means the ferry has disappeared below the horizon so that you can't zoom it back into view again.

Can you not grasp this simple fact?

For the second time, I said

"Watch a ferry as it heads towards Ireland. Then you just try to zoom it back in as it enters Dublin Bay!"

To which you replied:

"I have watched a ferry & I have zoomed it back in to focus."

Your answer is in the context of a ferry heading to Ireland entering Dublin Bay, which is what you were answering.

And you're still deflecting from the upshot of all of this. If you can't zoom a ferry into view when it is anywhere near the coast of Ireland, then that means there comes a point when the ferry is no longer visible to you because it has gone below the horizon so that you can't zoom it back in again.

You seem to be either incapable or unwilling to face the reality.

I said this but I didn't mean Ireland.
You're still deflecting from the real issue. The fact that you can't zoom a ferry into view while it approaches anywhere near the coast of Ireland is because it is below the horizon. The fact that you cannot see the coast of Ireland from Wales is because it is below the horizon.

Why can you not get these simple to understand facts????

And why can't you except the fact that I didn't mean Ireland. How the heck would I see Ireland from where I live ?
