I think the only way to convince some people that the earth is round is to send them up on a space flight. Land then on the moon so they can see it with their own eyes.

They will claim that you drugged them and they are really in a holding cell in a bunker under Hollywood.
Yeah, but why would you waste money on these idiots?

You know, flat Earthers could say the same about you. There is no reason for dividing ourselves into little boxes. "I'm smart and rational, and science is omniscient." vs. "I'm smart and rational, and science is not omniscient."

Come on, guys. We're all talking about the same thing. We are talking about whether to trust your authorities versus whether you can trust your senses.

Some agree that science cannot be trusted, because humans are fallible and are possibly deceitful by nature, while others agree that science can be trusted, because humans are (I guess) infallible and can be trusted to tell the truth, even when they're in power and it's easy to tell lies.

What if those in power of our worldly consciousness - the church, military, media, etc. - have simply decided that it's best that people don't know the real nature of life?

Did you know that the word "Google" in Gematria = 42 numerically.

42. Can you believe that? They're 'aving a laugh. Let's laugh along, and let's get to the bottom of this.

2017 BEST BITCOIN THREAD EVER.
Well, it's not the same at all. Yes, of course you can say science can't be trusted, because NASA is faking things and shit. But for the fucks sake, there are easy doable experiments those the NASA can't fake. I admit, there are parts of the physics which are hard to imagine, for example when I had to learn quantim mechanics I was just sitting there, and thinking about "what the fuck are they talking about, yes okay, I have to learn it...", but the classical newtonian mechanics are the opposite of them. You can do as many experiment you want and the outcome will be the same every single time. There IS gravity. Gravity caused by MASS. Mass has a center. Gravitational constant is (almost, but it has it's own reason related to mass) the same on every point of the Earth. If you deny these, of course you can think the Earth is flat. But in this case you are so stubborn you don't believe even to your own fucking eyes.

I hear you but before you get too uppity about gravity... Keep in mind that we are only on the verge of understanding what gives objects their mass. The LHC experiments are working on this, but even there, the results are interpreted by PhDs and other highly educated people. To credibly deny the conclusions of quantum physics or Newtonian physics, you'd have to be a physicist. Not everyone is a physicist, so don't get too frustrated if others don't see things the same way as you do.

Let's talk math, #teamglobe.

What are some of the best mathematical or a priori proofs that the Earth is a globe?
