This is just the way they planned it to be.
Of course; it's all a conspiracy.
This topic - which does not affect a Christian's salvation, and cannot save non Christians - has been carefully doctored, with fake photos and evidence planted. :doh:

Don't you see what you posted? If the earth is a globe why is that flight path as such??
Isn't the shortest distance between two points a straight line?
Should not that flat path be straight across?
Dear one, please look at that same flight path on a good flat earth map and you'll see the truth.

And no one has circumnavigated the globe from north to south or south to north,
because it can not be done, the earth is not a ball, we are under a dome.
Hahahaha!

So, are you arguing for a globe earth now?

No - If you read the book you'll see that Galileo retracts his statement about Heliocentrism.


In fact, as we will see in Chapter 1, a year before he died Galileo renounced, quite dramatically, all his claims that the Earth went around the sun.

All this can be proven by a letter Galileo wrote.


Galileo, not being particularly moved by the assertions, writes this surprising response to Rinuccini:

since we have the unshakeable authority of the Sacred Scripture, interpreted by the most erudite theologians, whose consensus gives us certainty regarding the stability of the Earth, situated in the center, and the motion of the sun around the Earth. The conjectures employed by Copernicus and his followers in maintaining the contrary thesis are all sufficiently rebutted by that most solid argument deriving from the omnipotence of God. He is able to bring about in different ways, indeed, in an infinite number of ways, things that, according to our opinion and observation, appear to happen in one particular way. We should not seek to shorten the hand of God and boldly insist on something beyond the limits of our competence…. D’Arcetri, March 29, 1641. I am writing the enclosed letter to Rev. Fr. Fulgenzio, from whom I have heard no news lately. I entrust it to Your Excellency to kindly make sure he receives it.

Why is Antarctica protected by military?
The restrictions that apply to Antarctica are generally in place to protect the environment and the biodiversity of the Continent. Lol'z



Ha ha - More likely to stop anyone exploring any further.
For the record, I don’t believe you’re for real.

It doesn't matter what statements Galileo might have retracted - if he did; he can't change the facts.

The earth is not the centre of the Universe.
Some people think that we should be - "everything revolves around us. WE are the most important." But the sun is the centre of the universe; the planets revolve around the sun. The sun gives life, light and warmth - if our planet were any further away from the sun, it couldn't sustain life.

Which is an analogy for our spiritual lives; WE are not the centre of our lives, the SON is. John said that there is nothing that exists that was not made by the Son. EVERYTHING was made by, for and through Jesus - he gives life and light to all. We wouldn't exist without him.
As Christians we are to put God, - Father, Son and Holy Spirit - first in our lives. "Seek first the Kingdom of God", the first commandment is that there is no other god besides GOD.
Many people don't let the SON into their lives - they act as though everything revolves around them, that they can please themselves and do what they want. Christians say that our lives revolve around the Son. HE is the most important, we live for, and in, him and we follow his command to be light to the world. Of course, our light comes from Jesus.

Your wrong about the sun, God created the sun & the moon on the fourth day, so God/Jesus were already there at the beginning in order to create everything.

The sun, moon & the stars move within the firmament, we see this every day. The earth does not orbit the sun at all.

From the book;

The notion of limitlessness or infinity, which the Copernican system implied, was bound to devour the space reserved for God….This meant, among other things the end of intimacy between man and God.

But not that the earth is a globe. That was not the issue. You seem to be under the mistaken opinion that rejecting heliocentrism means embracing flat earth. Robert Sungenis, for all his faults, is not arguing for a flat earth in the book you linked. I doubt you have read the book if you think it supports your argument.
All this can be proven by a letter Galileo wrote.
Which never claims the earth is flat. It was common knowledge at the time that the earth is a globe.

But the sun is the centre of the universe
Well, it is the centre of the Solar system, which itself orbits around the centre of the Milky Way galaxy.

This is just the way they planned it to be.
I have provided irrefutable proof that earth is a globe, and nobody has been able provide any counter evidence. Opinions don't matter at all, the truth is the only thing that matters

I have all the proof I need that the earth is stationary, level and does not orbit the sun, & that proof is in the Bible.

No, it isn't.
The Bible is not a science textbook.
