Using the same standards of evidence that flat-earthers demand to prove the earth is a globe, prove to me that Australia exists.

After all, I've never been there, and it's not mentioned in the Bible, so therefore it must be one big conspiracy in order to undermine the Christian faith.

Keep in mind that I will not accept:

- Pictures/recordings
- Maps
- Eyewitness records

Because all of those could easily be faked to support the conspiracy. So show me some convincing evidence that this so-called 'Australia' place is even real.

Where else could Australian Rules Football come from?

I assume you also would consider my Cambeltown Harliquins Jersey, my Gold Coast Gators shirt and my Brothers Rugby club shirts all fakes also.

I didn't believe Australia existed until I moved here. My life has changed and yours would, too, if you'd only accept that Australia is real.

And despite what you say, my personal testimony is one of the most incontrovertible pieces of evidence and should be all you need to change your mind.

Flat earthers do not have a problem with pictures/recordings...they have a problem with artist renderings, CGI, and artifacts/glitches.

There are aerial photographs of Australia (not composites, not CGI, not artist renderings) and we can navigate to it using a reference point and a heading (old world navigation).

The pictures of the globe earth are not real....they are artist renderings (it even says so in the caption in NASA site).

All of those aerial pictures are either fake or mislabeled pictures of some other place. The naval navigators are in on the conspiracy too.

Invented by the conspiracy.

Yep.

I'll start up my email server.

Send me an email and I'll track it from for ISP to my House, via the under sea fiber optic cables.

Trace IP Address Using These 4 Tools


How would an IP address prove the presence of an entire continent?

Then I'll buy you a ticket to Australia, And see you after you get off the jet.
See you soon.

I'll take you up on that challenge.
Just PM the details of when the plane leaves. I'll respond with my personal email address so that you can mail me my ticket.

And remember, you're paying!

:)

So...

By extension can we throw in New Zealand too, along with all the other South Pacific island nations, like Papua New Guinea?

I would get rid of the strip of land which separates Mexico from Canada myself.

You misunderstood. I was referring to the Australia challenge. New Zealand is pretty close to Australia, after all. :p

It was staged by Hollyweird to sell more of whatever. Every pic you see of the so-called "outback" desert is actually in Nevada.

On a sidenote, did you folks know that Belgium actually doesn't exist?
It's on the internet, it must be true!

Belgium Doesn't Exist!

Well to be honest the Belgium described in the link does not exist.

The argument for no Belgium quickly falls to pieces since the greatest bicycle racer ever was Belgian. No way the French or Italians would allow that sort of hoax!

Back to Oz.

What about Kangaroos, Koala Bears and a dozen of the most poisonous snakes in the world? They have to come from somewhere! This proves Oz exists. Oz is defined as their homeland. We may have been lied to about where Oz is, but that does not make Oz vanish.

How many of these supposed animals have you actually seen in real life, though?

I've been to Oz. Seen all but the snakes, thankfully since some of the snakes are aggressive which when combined with being poisonous is a nasty combination.

"Throw in New Zealand" ... no
"Throw away" ... sure.

All of them.

"In one case we had a lady who was busily ripping grass out from underneath a fence and she was getting nailed by green ants really hard, and she wasn't noticing that she was also getting bitten by redbacks. And it was a crescendo of pain - they took her to hospital and she ended up getting seven ampoules of anti-venom."

What kind of simulation has angry Aussies who are upset because the official beer of the Rugby World Cup is Heineken so there isn't any decent Aussie beer in the stadiums? What sort of sick group creates good beer just for a simulation?
