I don't have to
You can't.
You said that the deepest hole ever dug was over 40,000 ft deep. The earth has to be deeper than that.

I want to know what a flat, 40,000 ft-deep circle looks like.

I don't believe it is the force gravity that keeps the seas from flying off into space, if this is the case then by rights every thing like birds should be forced down also. With the force of gravity being so strong as this everything by rights would be flattened (excuse the pun) I wouldn't even be able to lift my arms.
"By rights"??? You really don't know how to think outside of your own little fantasy world, do you?

The reason why you are not "flattened" by gravity is because God created the human body (and those of animals) with a bone structure that is able to withstand the earth's gravity. Without that bone structure, you would be "flattened".

The reason why you can lift your arms is because God created human bodies (and those of animals) with muscles that can overcome the earth's gravity. Without those muscles, you wouldn't be able to lift your arms.

The reason why birds are not "forced down" and are able to fly is because God created their wings which, because the earth has sufficient atmosphere, can generate lift in order to overcome the earth's gravity.

The reason why water cannot defy earth's gravity (unless there are outside forces such as tidal forces) is because it doesn't have any structure to do so.

By rights, you should start trying to understand what you're talking about instead of spouting rubbish you can't understand.

I don't have to I have one here, not to scale of course, but you get the picture.

You need a lesson in what a circle is, but of course your eyes would just glaze over because it would be too tedious to understand it.

And you need a lesson in what the Bible actually states.

No, now you’re deflecting. And if you can’t understand even the first thing about the earth’s gravity, then you’re certainly not going to understand anything about the moon’s either.

You've already said that the Bible doesn't teach us everything about God's creation.

The Bible doesn't tell us how deep the depths of the earth are. You said that the deepest hole ever dug was over 40,000 ft deep. You did not get that info from the Bible; you looked it up. And people discovered they could dig a hole that deep by investigating - trying it out. If people discovered the depths of the earth by experimenting, and you accepted their conclusions - which you clearly have - there is no reason why you would not accept when people investigate the skies.
Unless it's that Dean Odel tells you otherwise, and you'd rather accept the word of one man over the thousands of others who tell you otherwise.

Sounds to me like either blind faith, or hero worship.

I tried already with the earth’s gravity. You know nothing. I’m not wasting my time. Try to learn something instead of regurgitating what others say because you don’t understand any of it.

But it does teach us that earth is a circle.
No it doesn’t. A circle is a two dimensional geometric shape. The earth is a three dimensional object. If you keep insisting that God says the earth is a two dimensional geometric shape then you are implying that God lies.

No I'm not, you can't deny scripture.

And I'm saying that YOU were the one who said that the deepest hole ever dug was 40,0000 feet. So when the KJV talks about the depths of the earth, it suggests the earth is more than 40,000 feet deep. So how do you have a 40,000 ft circle?

Also, the Bible talks about the 4 corners of the earth; so maybe it's a square?
