Is the world round or flat?

[Tbone]

round DURR!

[zyzz]

The Flat Earth Society people actually don't believe that the earth is flat. They just like making people sign up to argue with them, partly because its fun and partly to make people think about why so many accept science at face value instead of exploring it for ourselves. I can't prove that the earth is round, but I believe it anyway because that's what scientists tell me, and I consider them an authority. In a way, it'd be no different than believing that the earth is flat because a priest told me... its meant to be social commentary, not science.

im going to take a wild guess and say that it is round?

Pi = 3

 

Google that up.

 

And yeah, the NASA is secretly a government op created to make people think that the earth is round and the moon is real. Lies.

A: They truthfully believe that the earth is flat. They do not like flaming, or even "heated debates" on the subject.

B: I don't believe the Earth is round because scientist tell me. I use common sense. A flat Earth just wouldn't explain seasons, climates, star/planet patterns, and global weather. It was pretty obvious before Christopher Columbus, as well as before NASA. It was just looked down upon because priests and religious figures demoted the idea. So if we believed the Earth is round because scientists told us so, we would have believed it when the first people, who thought logically on the subject, suggested it to us.

Geez get it right the earth is in a triangular prism shape...

[Demi:Pulse]

People have gone around the world, or balloon flighted over, or whatever.

 

I think I'm going with round here, with this link as my thoughts:

Yes but their thoughts are probably, the picture is flat......... so the Earth must be flat.

 

[naynesh]

Well most of us know that the world is round

but...just for the fun of it some people go around saying its flat

Maybe they have a problem

[santa]

lol , ITS ROUND

 

and if you dont believe it take it up with Columbis

[AverageJoe]

Why don't you go tell that to the guys at the link I provided in the first post. lol

[naynesh]

I think they are a bit wierd but they are thinking outside the box.

It's simple logic to tell that the earth is flat. Go to any beach and look out on the horizon. It's curved, isn't it?

The Earth is roughly spherical, although it's a bit flat at the poles.
