I mean't, how are they going to prove they are in Antarctica ?
Compass bearings, map location?
It would be hard to confuse Antarctica with other places.

How might they prove this ?
What???? Seriously???? That's the most inane question you've asked yet.

That's like asking how do you know you are where you are? Or if you travel to Paris, how do you know you're in Paris?

Do you really think "THEY" can recreate a whole city in order to fool flat earthers into thinking they are in Punta Arenas?

You need help!

We'll see.
We will.
But as you've already cast doubt on the legitimacy of the trip, the credibility of the flat-earthers who are going and now the location of Antarctica itself, I'm not confident that you will accept any findings as valid.

My Math's was terrible, I always came bottom, I reckon it was because I always found it so tedious. I am trying to learn Spanish at the mo, I can say the Lords prayer in Spanish :):praying:
You are good at learning things that others are not. Others are good learning things that you can't fathom. That's reality. But the difference is that others don't go on the internet to ridicule the things you are good at. You however do. You ridicule maths, physics and all science.

Just because you're not good any of it doesn't mean you have to ridicule it. It doesn't work because all you're doing is telling people what they are good at is rubbish, even when they know it isn't. And you don't understand enough to make any intelligible arguments. It makes you sound ridiculous.

No it's not, they must prove they are in Antarctica to begin with.
That will be easily verified. The flight from Punta Arenas will take them over the coast of Antartica & they will continue flying deep inland. The flight time will be 4.5 hours. And there won’t be any area close to them where there could possibly be 24 sun unless the earth is a globe. Remember the only place on a flat earth where there could possibly be 24 sun is at the North Polar regions. And it will be very easy to verify that they won’t be anywhere near there.

No you have no good reason, you just can’t understand any of it. That means you don’t realise how ridiculous you sound.

I'll put it to you in the simplest possible terms. To people who understand maths and physics, you telling them that what they are saying isn't true, is like saying that 1+1 does not equal 2. To such people that's how ridiculous your claim is. Because they are as certain of more complex maths & physics as they are of 1+1=2. It may be gobbledygook to you, but to them it is second nature.

I chatted with someone the other day who works at designing computer software for accountancy programs. He reads computer coding as you or I would read a book. To me it's gibberish, but to him everything makes sense. If there is a problem with any of the coding and the program doesn't work, he would spot it easily, correct it and fix the program.

Now if I was to tell him that his computer program coding is all nonsense and is just gobbledygook, he would rightly tell me that I don't know what I'm talking about.

That's the situation you are in when posting on these threads.

I don't care what you say, it's all a load of nonsense.

I don's care, do you know how ridiculous this all sounds ?

You bear all the signs of indoctrination. People try to reason with you, try to help you, explain things to you, and all you have to say is “I don’t care”. Do you realise how ridiculous YOU sound to any rational person?

In your first post in this thread, you said that you would be "keeping a close eye on this guy", post#12..
Then you said that you would accept any evidence they find as genuine, post#17. And that if this guy pulled it off, you would accept he was legit, post#19.
Much later on you said, "I reckon that it's all fraudulent", post#979.
When told that 3 flat-earthers were going on this expedition, you said, "well it depends on who they are; the government pays people to pretend to be flat-earthers", post#994. Apart from the fact that, as usual, you offered no evidence, if the government paid people to say they believed in a flat earth, it would mean that the government wanted there to be more flat-earthers in the world. They would be trying to artificially boost their numbers.
Then when it was pointed out that Dean Odel had been invited on this trip, your response was "wow! I'm really excited about this now," post#1004.
Now that Dean has confirmed that he is not going on this free trip you are saying "well they have to prove that they are in Antarctica - which they might be able to do. But whatever happens, and whatever they find; I'm not going to accept it."

You should save yourself the time and just say, "I don't care who does what or what evidence they find, I am sticking to my, completely unprovable, belief that the earth is flat. The Bible doesn't teach it and it's not at all important - but I believe it."
Then you can do what you said you were going to do; a) give up your addiction to conspiracy theories and b) get closer to God.

Your right here.
So why did you say at the beginning of this thread that whatever evidence they found, you would accept as genuine, and that the guy was legit?

(And, a minor point, please learn the difference between you're and your.)

What can I say, I changed my mind.

I did get excited as I knew we'd get the truth from Dean.

This is good, we now have the word police on hand :thumbsup:
It's not word, it's grammar.
You're is short for you are.
Your denotes ownership; your opinion, your computer, your age etc.

So you're not prepared to believe other flat-earthers? That says a lot.
And if Dean had said, "I made a mistake, I believe the earth is a globe", would you have gone back on your statement that "nothing will make me believe in a globe earth; never have, never will."?
