If flat earthers do NOT believe in science why would they believe in MYTH's results--all they would do is claim it was staged/etc.

My favourite response to flat Earthers, is to argue Elder Scrolls cosmology at them instead. It's in depth enough that you can really keep..

All you need is pythagoras theorem, a tall tower and a deep well.

Actually, you just need the deep well. Throw the Flat Earther down it.

You can also toss them from the tower but that might be bad optics

That would need cleanup. With the well you can just scoop some dirt in on top and move to the next well.

North Pole in the center. Which creates so many other issues
kojenk
oh my god you had to say it out loud. That shit boggles my mind. HOW DOES THE LOGIC WORK?! my brain tries to imagine how...
qweds
North Pole in the center means magnetic north in the centre. You can go east round and round but you're not traveling straight, you're walk
kojenk
But it causes all sorts of other issues over other matters regarding how tech and travel works
qweds
Does it? Give examples. Compasses work on magnetic north which is a point on earth
qweds
That's actually interesting, never thought of it that way. On a sphere you'd be walking in a line. On flat earth you're walking in a circle
qweds
Walking in a large circle. But your compass will say easy the entire time

Get a 100-mile-long rope. Stretch the rope out around 3 points to make a triangle. Measure the angles and add them up. It's more than 180deg
fencer1964
I want Randall Monroe in this: just how long would each side have to be, to measure 180°?
ImgurCelebrity
(And obviously, a human being actually making a small triangle does make a normal, planar one.)
ImgurCelebrity
0. The larger the triangle (as a ratio of the radius of the sphere) the greater the angle sum. Sufficiently small tris are approx planar.
fencer1964
Bah, I meant to say 181° or more.
[deleted]
[deleted]
fencer1964
Well that’s just not true; start w a small (1 cm?) triangle on an Earth sized sphere — the angles will equal 180° to several decimal places.
fencer1964
As you move the points away from each other the angles not only exceed 270°, but will eventually equal 360° when the points meet.

Atmospheric distortion would make that impossible even if the earth was flat.

They come up with bullshit excuses for anything, they will say that if you can get a powerful enough telescope, that you would be able to.

Wobbixx
I mean, theorhetically with a strong telescope and literally perfect atmospheric conditions you could see tall items over the horizon->
Wobbixx
that are behind the curve of the earth, thanks to atmospheric lensing, but in order for that to work to begin with, you need gravity,which->
StoptheInfamousElGuapo
part of the problem with these NUTJOBS is that they reject the notion of gravity! I actually know a flat earther in person...it's scary
Wobbixx
in and of itself breaks the flat earth model, since any large object (say a planet) would coalesce into a sphere. So they use lensing as ->
Wobbixx
a handwavey excuse, despite the fact that it in fact BREAKS the flat earth model further.
