the myth of flat earth debunked again

[prodromos]

No it has been the official narrative for 500 years.

The Moscow Patriarchate likes to consider themselves "new Rome", but that has nothing to do with any empires past or present. It doesn't matter how many churches fall under their jurisdiction, a Patriarch is just a bishop, and he gets a single vote in a Church Council, same as every other bishop. The Orthodox Church rejects the papacy, so there is really no basis for claiming Moscow to be 'new Rome'. Constantine actually expanded the city of Byzantium into what he initially called "New Rome", but it simply became known as "Constantine's city" aka Constantinople.

Probably because anyone with a working brain knows better.

Are you saying the Bible is wrong?

He was not talking nor complimenting you. Check your ego.

The earth is round like sphere formed, a ball this we know.

A flat earth is not what is generally meant by some, like some kind of flying carpet.

However, it is not to be taken so but a deeper explanation is required, it is written in the Tanya that certain things are imossible to explain in writing.

For what it is worth, it is possibly describing a scroll, which is round when rolled up, but can be rolled out flat.

For if one sets out on a journey with the help of a compass, and keeps going due West, 270, one will come back to where one started.

Unlike if one sets off due North, there is a hinder, a pole as in Npole.

To continue one would have to change course from N to South, where there is another pole.

If seen as for example a Torah scroll, with a handle at top and bottom, so as to be able to roll out flat.

Just my way of trying to make sense of the claim of flat earth.

I already posted this. It’s not about the Church. Although I would definitely say the seat of Peter is in Moscow.

Oh look, another instagram scientist. Gotta throw away all of my beliefs about stars now.

Is it bad that I thought you were going to do this as a poem because of the way the first line was built?

It was and is a myth though. It even says it right up there.

In fact, as well, the first person to be crowned a tsar was the Bulgarian prince, Simeon I, in 913. Not a Russian. A Bulgarian.

Thanks.

I mean, personally, I don't care one way or the other. Someone's viewpoint has no bearing on my life, whatsoever, but I wanted to know if I was missing something about why so many people passionately engage in this specific topic.

The second point you make makes sense and, really, is such a shame. There are bigger issues in the world but I appreciate we all need distraction and entertainment.

I hope you all figure it out! I don't want to fall off the Earth on vacation because we got it wrong!

Don’t worry…..that’s impossible. We don’t have it wrong.

You definitely took the crown.

I can’t even believe I’m discussing such silliness with you.

Believe it.

Yes, it’s not literally clay under a seal, only like it.

But the stars aren't millions of miles away & neither is the sun 93 million miles away.

The next closest star from here in 25.7trillion miles away.

If you mean everything in the Bible is literal, then you are wrong.

Haha, never thought of that.

You sure would be a wise man. The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom.

 

[FaithT]

Believe it.

Good to know you finally think that a flat earth POV is silly.

They did not, in fact, descend from the Roman emperors though. It is made up in order to lay claim to something. Just like how the Vardar region in former Yugoslavia renamed themselves Macedonia in order to lay geographical claim to the Empire of Alexander the Great. They are of Slavic descent and have no physical links to Alexander who is Greek. They were sponsored by Communist Russia in order to gain warm water ports, since many of Russia's sea ports freeze during Winter.
