It wouldn’t matter if you seen it anyway because your already saying that the curve in the videos is fake. I’ll tell you something else you haven’t seen either and that’s the edge of the world, but your willing to believe in that even tho you’ve never seen it. Have you ever seen God, or what about Adam & Eve? Have you ever seen the worldwide flood, or Noah’s ark? Have you ever seen Jesus? I’m willing to bet that you believe in all these people and things you’ve never seen before because someone told you they existed. Pilots and sailors circle the globe everyday and the edge of the world never been reported, at least not in the last century. I’m going to assume your American so call someone on the other side of the planet and ask them if the sun is up right now. Is there anyone you can trust in an eastern country a family member or friend you can trust? It’s really important that you learn the truth because telling a lie as a result of stubbornness is still a lie and a sin.

This may be news to you, but i do not believe in God because some person said they existed. I believe in these events, people, etc.. because God through The Bible has stated that these events, people happened, lived.

I am not the one, who is not believing the creation account given in The Bible. So you may talk about lies but my faith rest in the truth of The Bible. Where as yours (faith) is in the lies of science and not only in the lies of science but over the creation truth given in The Bible.

It is always a rocket goes up levels out showing part of a fake curve earth. Then magically the rocket appears and is out in space with the earth in the distance.
I don't know what footage you are talking about. None of the recent rocket launches that have had cameras attached have gone up beyond low earth orbit, so unless the camera has a fisheye lense, the earth is never going to appear "in the distance"
(edit) I don't remember if the James Webb Telescope launch had a camera attached, but a camera on the launch vehicle would again only reach low earth orbit while a camera on the payload would only see after the fairings had been ejected after low earth orbit.

One example is the car launch into space by Elon.

See what I added to my post above. The camera on the Tesla could not record anything useful until the fairings had been ejected well after the initial launch.

No my faith isn’t in science at all brother I believe in a 6 day creation, I believe that the earth is only just over 6,000 years old, I believe in Christ’s resurrection. I also believe that the scriptures do not say that the earth is flat. I’ve flown around it. I flew from Dallas Tx to Seoul Korea then from there to the Philippines. Then I flew from there to Dubai then back to Dallas. I was traveling west the entire time and arrived back at my original location. So how do you explain that?

Ooooh. Right, right.
Guess I got confused because of how long the flat earth thing persisted for after that. I probably should look up my history a bit more.
:doh1:

You might ask why the Church fully accepted the earth as a globe hundreds of years ago, being even closer to the Apostles and not being swayed by rockets and cameras and telescopes. Ancient Greeks discovered the earth was spheroidal more than 2300 years ago--and even pretty accurately calculated its size--using good land-based observations and math. The Church never disputed that as a fact.

Flat Eatherism argued from the Bible is a very new phenomenon, not an old one.

So you believe Joshua commanded the sun and moon to stop moving over the earth for about a day.

Is that pointing west the entire time? No it’s not. But here’s another reason why I know the earth is not flat, I called my wife in the Philippines from Texas during the daytime and it was night time there. How do you explain that one? If you hang a light above the table it shines on the whole table.

God has divided the day from night.

Then God said, “Let there be lights in the raqia of the heavens to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs and seasons, and for days and years;

Go read a Bible Joshua 10

Yeah so the sun and moon stayed still, what’s your point? A donkey talked, a virgin gave birth, men came back to life after being dead for several days, manna fell from the sky, why should this surprise you?

If you fail to understand that science states the earth moves around the sun.

The sun moves in The Bible and it is the earth that does not move.

That’s a figure of speech. People have been saying the sun comes up and goes down for centuries because that is the way it is viewed from our perspective and it’s easier to say than the earth rotated to when the sun was visible.

So if the earth is flat why is it that as a ship sails off into the horizon why is it that the bottom of the ship can’t be seen but the top of it can still be seen? Why does it disappear from bottom to top?
