Globe people say flat and stationary earth Biblical believers are crazy. Well at least we do not believe it is possible for man to block out the sun over the whole earth. One day science and government is going to go too far and their deception game will be exposed.

Biden! White House says it's open to plan that would BLOCK sunlight from hitting surface of the Earth in bid to limit global warming White House cautiously opens the door to study blocking sun’s rays to slow global warming
The White House offered measured support for the idea of studying how to block sunlight from hitting Earth’s surface as a way to limit global warming,

One method is to multiply the amount of aerosols in the stratosphere to reflect the sun’s rays away from the planet — a process that can occur naturally after a major volcanic eruption. Others include either increasing cloud cover over the oceans or reducing the amount of high-flying cirrus clouds, which reflect solar radiation back to Earth.

What would make it impossible to do something like this?

One method is to multiply the amount of aerosols in the stratosphere to reflect the sun’s rays away from the planet — a process that can occur naturally after a major volcanic eruption.

An example of the natural version is the 'Year Without a Summer'.

The aberrations are now generally thought to have occurred because of the April 5–15, 1815, Mount Tambora volcanic eruption[7][8] on the island of Sumbawa, Indonesia.[9] The eruption had a volcanic explosivity index (VEI) ranking of 7, a colossal event that ejected at least 100 km3 (24 cu mi) of material. It was the world's largest volcanic eruption during historic times,

Cardboard cutouts are also flat and stationary.

Obviously you are unaware the dumb human race had been unintentionally "blocking off" sunlight for a majority of the 20th century.
It's called particulate pollution and resulted in global dimming.
Global dimming masked the effects of global warming which became more apparent by the 1980s as global particulate pollution was reduced due to the efforts from previous decades.

Blimey, so sad that flat earthers are so gullible to think the earth is flat. Nowhere in scripture does it say it is flat.

Have you seen the four pillars?

It's all part of their plan to devastate food production all over the world so they can do to the earth's population what Stalin did to the Ukraine.

It is coming, people will have to get use to dropping the planet from their comments about earth. They will also have to find another way of speaking about global business, global travel, etc...

God created is covered by a raqia (dome) that is separating waters from waters.
“And God called the raqia sky.”

Below the sky is water, mayim.
Above the sky is the water that was divided, sha-mayim . (the prefix is a Hebrew letter that roughly means, to destroy/separate. Fitting for the narrative, wouldn’t you think?

If you are able to search the scripture, you will most definitely find that the sha-mayim is where the clouds are… please pause for a moment, and think about what clouds are…


Water, sha-mayim. The so-called ‘dome’ is actually an atmospheric layer that He created to hold the sha-mayim in place. Clouds, my friend, clouds.

Scripture also indicates He used a hammer to craft this dome- a testament only to His craftsmanship, not His material & equipment list.

There’s no conspiracy, I promise. Search the Scripture, talk to the Lord.

Ask anything of me, please don’t challenge me or attempt to convince me that I’m wrong- I’m the nicest, easiest person to talk to; but, I’ll admit I have zero tolerance for fools and do not entertain unclean spirits. If you express sincerity in your search, I will help you understand.

Not necessarily crazy, just willfully ignorant.

That would be rather easier if thr world was flat.

And the reason this this deception is...?

Always interesting to see how science forces people to distort The Biblical creation account given in Genesis 1. For you, you insert clouds into Genesis 1, when there is no mention of clouds being created. Plus The Bible plainly states the earth was watered by a mist from the earth.

So for you the raqia becomes a sky filled with clouds and waters above the raqia are clouds filled with water.

I will pass on your understanding of Genesis.

Meaningless comment. And if that was an underhanded insult, we’ll, that’s in you “Christian.”
For you, you insert clouds into Genesis 1, when there is no mention of clouds being created.
Did you not get that clouds are WATER?! The actual word for water is used to describe the sky. It IS in Genesis 1.

Plus The Bible plainly states the earth was watered by a mist from the earth.
So, now ‘rain’ doesn’t exist?! The most from the earth has absolutely nothing to do with what we are discussing.

So for you the raqia becomes a sky filled with clouds and waters above the raqia are clouds filled with water.
I was just reading scripture to you. I realize you can’t read Hebrew, but I can- I did- I told you what it means.

I bet you complain a lot about people making snide comments to you because of your FE stuff…. and yet, here you are insulting someone that offered to explain this to you, but you refuse to believe the Word of God.

You bear no fruit…

Thanks, but I gotta block the guy before he says something that’ll get him kicked off… which he will. I’ve dealt with these cultish conspiracy theorists for nearly a decade now. No talking to them- don’t know why I tried. But, based on words he wrote to me, it’s clear to me that an unclean spirit is directing his words… I already told him that’s a game changer.

Some flat earthers claim that they know scripture yet its obvious they dont! They clearly misinterpret scripture to suit their very own narrow beliefs.

Then, you come on here, explain what it says in Hebrew and they still think they are right!

I hope that one day they will see the real truth.....the earth is NOT flat! Its a sphere, just like all the other planets etc that God created.

(shhh… fe bible conspiracy was actually created by an online marketing platform to see if there were people gullible enough to believe it, so as a means to use their ‘unique personality traits’ to customize ads. The guy who started it no longer works there and they have since banned all flat earth topics. Years of observation, dozens of these characters, and yet, NONE of them knew anything else about the Bible except specific verses relating to fe agenda.)

They’re not of us, that is certain.

Yea, I've seen a lot of evidence in the last 6 years. I've also seen all the arguments of what couldn't possibly 'work' on a flat earth. Whenever I see that, I just know that person hasn't actually taken the time to prove out their arguments, but rather just likely used a search engine to find talking points. As to your point, it most certainly works when you understand the flat earth model.

It's fine. I once made the same arguments, but I was wrong as well. I'm honestly not looking for converts.

Maybe it can be explained how stars seem to rotate around the north pole access in the northern hemisphere and seem to rotate around the south pole axis in the southern hemisphere with a flat earth model, but not any such model I have seen or ever been shown. It is completely understandable with the earth being like a globe. It really seems that you who hold to the earth being flat will just not look at evidence that contradicts it, not that you just do not want any argument about it. If you are right that there is a flat earth model it works with I really, and I mean really, want it shown that I can look at it. So yes I would let you show me it works with a flat earth model. How does it? Rotation of stars around the axis, at two places, clockwise at one and counterclockwise at the other, requires poles of an axis reaching both places. How does that work with a flat earth model. I really can't see it but I would not just be difficult if one explains it with a flat earth model well. So, do show.

From the persons youtube written description

The video shows four views looking in each direction, demonstrating how the sky moves "down under," in directions opposite to what northern hemisphere residents are used to. Stars still rise in the east and set in the west, but they rise moving at an angle to the left and set at an angle to the right. Looking north to the seasonal constellations, stars move from right to left, as the southern Sun does in the day. Looking to the south, to the south celestial pole and circumpolar stars, the sky turns clockwise around a rather blank area of sky. There is no prominent "south star."

Are you trying to make some point with the bolded part? Because it seems like a non sequitur.

The point is that the stars circle in different directions (clockwise versus anticlockwise). That difference doesn't vanish, just because there's no good counterpart to Polaris (which is ~three-quarters of a degree off the axis itself).
