  1. You know that laughing at idiots is a time honoured tradition?

  2. And how many debates has Eric actually participated in do you think? I’ll give you a hint, it’s less than one. I watched his response video and predictably he didn’t debunk anything, he just talked garbage as usual.

  3. And yet here you are getting uptight because someone has an opinion that you don’t like.

  4.  @ConspiracyBytes  You realise you're describing flat earthers to a tee?

  5. Keep trying, one day you'll write a coherent sentence.

  6. It’s not uncommon for earth’s curvature to be removed from equations if it needlessly over complicates things. That’s hardly proof of earth being flat. You would find many military documents that take Earth’s curvature into account through necessity - did Dean Odle’s video mention that? I highly doubt it.

  7. So basically you've watched some conspiracy videos on Youtube which you believed without question and never bothered to look into the science behind their claims. Does that about sum it up?

  8. No one cares about Eric’s nonsense video.

  9.  @iqnatedog3928  that’s right, those Sudos have no idea they’re talking about.

  10. Why can’t you come up with an original question at least? What is it with you morons and your obsession with Hubble or putting a camera on the moon? As if it would make the slightest bit of difference, you’d just say it was fake anyway. There are already satellites taking pictures of Earth and apparently they’re not good enough so I’m not sure why a camera on the moon would be more valid. As if any space agency is going to go to all that effort just to prove to a bunch of conspiracy idiots what’s been established fact for over 2000 years! Fact is, you don’t need photos and you don’t need NASA. If you really wanted to know how we know Earth is a globe then you would’ve found the answers yourself.

  11. No measurements? Practically every square inch of earth’s surface has been measured and those measurements only conform to a spherical shape. Until you idiots manage to come up with something resembling a working map then sorry but earth is a sphere and flat earthers will continue to be the dumbest people on the planet.

  12.  @vohannes  yes you weigh slightly less at the equator. This has been proven many times. Call it bullshit as much as you like, you’re just making yourself look more and more foolish.

  13. If I told you that petrol isn't real and the oil industry is a scam to hide that fact that cars actually run on unicorn farts, would you celebrate that as different point of view that warrants serious discussion? It's all good and well and write essays on why we should take flat earthers seriously but their ideas are nonsense and trivially easy to debunk.

  14.  @baubljos103  nonsense is nonsense, that’s the point. You can label what I said with whatever fallacy you want, at the end of the day until flat earthers provide even a scrap of evidence to support their idiotic ideas- which they are patently unable to do - then there is no good reason to take them seriously.

  15. Pre-millennial thinking hey? Hahaha. I’ve seen some stupid comments and that’s definitely up there with the best of them.

  16. No they just believe a whole lot of other nonsense. The specifics aren’t that important though are they? The key word here is “nonsense”.

  17. One of the trade marks of intelligence is having the humility to realise how little you know. A trademark of stupidity on the other hand is thinking you know better than everyone else. Which category do you think you fit in?

  18. All flat earthers are wankers. An upwards accelerating disk would at least explain why objects accelerate towards the ground. Does density and buoyancy explain this? No, no it does not. Whether you’re with the flat earth society or whether you’re a “real” flat earther, to any one with half a brain you’re all clowns that no one should take seriously.

  19. Or you could save your brain cells and watch funny cat videos. At least they’d be real, unlike any of the unmitigated crap that comes out of that idiot.

  20.  @RobH.  it’s like comparing two turds and claiming one smells better than the other.

  22. What does it matter? It’s all nonsense.

  23. Chad Judd have you considered the possibility that you might be intellectually challenged?

  24. The Saros cycle can predict the day of an eclipse. It can’t predict the exact time or, in the case of a full solar eclipse, what the path of totality will be. That can only be calculated with a knowledge of heliocentric orbital mechanics. The Earth’s circular shadow during a lunar eclipse also tells us that Earth is a sphere, not to mention that flat earthers still can’t explain how a lunar eclipse occurs, something that is trivially easy to explain by the heliocentric model.

  25. Eric Dubay doesn't talk to anyone. He makes childish videos full of lies and deletes comments from anyone that holds him to account. Have you ever seen Eric in a debate outside of his own echo chamber? No, neither have I.

  26.  @dc95811  Eric tells a lot of lies and half truths. It doesn’t take 159 IQ points to figure that out.

  27. Look up umbra vs penumbra

  28. Yes we all know Eric made a video. No one cares.

  29.  @awakenedintofreedom  And what if any input did you have in the planning of that project?

  30. Aww diddums, don’t you worry about those nasty Facebook people. Go and have a glass of warm milk and everything will be ok.

  31.  @RealmsandRealms  yet for all your cut and paste waffle, not one single flat earther has been able to produce a simple two dimensional map that has accurate measurements which reflect known distances. All the data is verifiable and publicly available and yet this seems like an insurmountable problem for all the poor flat earthers. Why is that do you think?

  32. The bit about you being wrong is right on the money though.

  33. Or don’t. I’d recommend watching funny cat videos for something more intellectually stimulating.

  34. You're right it doesn't make a lot of difference to our daily lives what shape our planet is but to say "no 1 knows" isn't right and that's the point - we do know. The beauty of science is we can use it to tell us truths about the natural world that our senses alone can't. I think the reason a lot of people get up flat earthers isn't so much because they think Earth is flat, it's because they are willingly attempting to take a massive dump on centuries of scientific progress whilst providing no actual alternative theories that make any sense.

  35.  @JLar-bb5hl  I think you need to do some research into why you’re such an idiot.

  36. It probably had something to do with all the evidence clearly indicating beyond any doubt that Earth was a globe and the complete absence of evidence that showed it to be a giant space pancake.

  37.  @tbrown3356 if you want to navigate over long distances then yes, spherical coordinates are what are needed and is what’s used on a daily basis. As for the known distances on earth conforming to a sphere, I don’t need to prove it, its proven by millions of people travelling around the planet every day who can reliably verify that those measurements are correct. You flat earthers are always demanding proof aren’t you? But none of you seem to be able to prove your silly little space pizza fantasy is actually true. Funny that isn’t it? Like I said, when one of you absolute tools can demonstrate with verifiable data that known distances between two locations on earth can all work on a flat plane then maybe you’ll have a leg to stand on. But I think we all know that’s never going to happen.

  38.  @tbrown3356  yeah nah that’s not what I’m saying. There is no such thing as a working flat earth map. And if you’re going to claim that there is then you should be able to link to one. But we all know you won’t because it doesn’t exist! What I predict you will do is twist my words around, avoid admitting that you know I’m right and act like you’re winning an argument even though you are clearly floundering.

  39.  @tbrown3356  just as I predicted ...

  40.  @tbrown3356  yawn

  41.  @earth.is.a.plane.  It's the truthfulness in the message that I'm more concerned with. Delivering it in a smug, monotone drawl just makes it worse.

  42. I’d say it’s quite an apt analogy actually. It also describes the contents of a flat earther’s head.

  43. Or maybe, you know .... you’re an idiot?

  44. There is little point arguing with these people. Most of the time I honestly don’t think they even believe the shite they come out with, especially flat earthers - it’s just an exercise in taking a contrary position and arguing for it no matter what. It’s more of less just a sport with the end goal of pissing off the other person.

  45. I very much doubt that the majority of people claiming to be flat earthers actually believe the earth is flat. My guess is it’s largely a troll movement. Also, those stats you bring up refer to one survey. I’d be interested to know how it was conducted (ie. how many responded, how the questions were posed, how widespread the respondents were geographically, etc.). Statistics can be misleading. For example if 99% of respondents were 99% sure that Earth was a globe, technically those 99% had some degree of doubt. See what I mean? I refuse to believe there are than many idiots in the world.

  46. Maybe because he’s an idiot? Why would anyone waste their time debating a moronic subject with an imbecile?

  47. So if I told you cars didn’t run on petrol, they are actually powered by microscopic monkeys and the whole petrol thing is a lie perpetrated by the fossil fuel industry, you don’t think that should be mocked but rebutted seriously?

  48.  @thewolfman751  “if it disagrees with experiment it’s wrong” - exactly, which is why geocentricism was abandoned 500 years ago.

  49. Chad Judd the fact that you think the sun should rise in the West for people in the East is laughable. Calling that a “Chad Judd original” ... there are no words. I can only hope, for your sake, that this is an attempt to be satirical on your part.

  50.  @ronoli9447  he’s right though, your questions are stupid and have been answered thousands of times so why ask them?
