  1.  @skye_onair509 Density us not a force just the ratio of mass to volume. Since gravity is the attraction of masses and density is the amount of mass in a volume, the gravitational pull is greater on denser objects. Since air has a greater density than the helium, the gravitational pull on it is greater thsn the balloon; the air moves down preferentially, displacing the balloon upwards.

  2.  @skye_onair509  The greater the mass then the greater the force required to reach a set rate of acceleration. Gravitational attraction is proportional to mass; the greater the mass, the greater the force. Since both attraction and force are directly proportional to the mass of the object, all objects exhibit the same acceleration.

  3.  @ministermartynas7569  I asked you questions about what you claim to have figured out; why don't you answer them if you have the answers? "thousands of years prove Biblical authority" Thousands of years of confirmation bias and selective interpretation but no proof.

  4. Clocks & calendars are based (originally) on the sun & moon, not vice versa. The moon is also observable during the day and causes solar eclipses. Tides, not waves.

  5. Same as railway lines meeting up.

  6.  @netrox81 ​​⁠You can produce a 3000 year old map that is navigable?

  7. Science, not “science”, and the Earth has been mapped, measured & photographed repeatedly.

  8. A scientific theory is a comprehensive explanation of a natural phenomenon that is well substantiated by extensive experimentation & observation. It is to a guess or hunch; that is the vernacular meaning of theory. Do you understand that stars emit light?

  9.  @daviddolezal7950  “you cant have presurized atmosfere without container” Which is why I am asking you where you think there is atmosphere next to vacuum on the globe model. If you didn’t think there wasn’t then you wouldn’t be making the statement so where do you think it is?

  10. Science is continually developing; history is a record of past events. They’re not equivalent. What do you think we do in labs?

  11. Why would you expect to sense one revolution per day? How dizzy do you think you should feel?

  12. No, they failed to find evidence of luminiferous aether.

  13. Produce evidence this dome exists. Explain why the sun & moon follow different paths to what we observe. Explain how you think a sundial works.

  14. Put on some soft gloves before you start or the face palming will give you a black eye.

  15. I see the sun rise & set….

  16. @Harry Woods One revolution per day is nit going to generate much electricity. Rivers flow from high elevation to low elevation, not north to south. There is no top or bottom to a sphere when down is simply towards the centre of the sphere; north is put at the “top” out of convention.

  17.  @jdog2901 How did NASA fool the ancient Greeks?

  18.  @MrQuintijn ​​⁠ You realise that people can look up and see the stars? That they can be photographed? A 2D map of a 2D would have one consistent scale. A projection of a 3D surface on a 2D inevitably has distortions. You’re complaining that maps are distorted. Irrelevant.

  19. They routinely seem to visualise in the range of a 25 mile circumference. One actually quoted what he expected to see on a globe that would require a 3.4 mile circumference; he didn’t think it differed significantly from 25,000 miles.

  20. It alleviates symptoms, not cures. The prescriptions are for cannabinoids, not cannabis. The palliative, non-addictive compounds were identified and they are prescribed.

  21. Observation & reasoning alone is natural philosophy rather than science.

  22. Still waiting on the FE'er explanation for the Cavendish experiment.

  23. The Bible makes no specific statement on the subject. Ancient Hebrew used a common word for circle & sphere with the distinction being in the context; in this case the context is the world. How you translate that is up to the translation team. The Bible does state bats are birds but that does not alter the fact that they are mammals. It just indicates the writers’ limited understanding of the world around them.

  24. One week with 130+ comments and Espin Aslpar deletes the thread?

  25. So no explanation what FEers really mean by “hiding God”?

  26. Let’s start with the video then go from there.

  27. Please explain how everybody sees the sane face & phase of the moon on a FE?

  28. Rivers from high elevation to low elevation, not north to south.

  29. Lies such as what?

  30. Look at the route in a 3D globe, not on a 2D map of the globe.

  31. There’s no point in asking questions if you’re simply going to deny the answers and these people start with denial.

  32. How do you think different areas on one solid object could move at different rpm?
    9
  33.  @lucettebourdon9141  Thinking logically has the immediate perquisite of being willing to think. You haven’t even figured out how to calculate degrees curvature per distance.

  34. Check the chronological order of the FE-related videos. He’s had a lot of abuse from people convinced they have the Real Answers but who can’t explain anything, can’t understand the simplest explanations, think observable reality is wrong and think everything’s a conspiracy. Your patience would be stretched.

  35. In relativity gravity is an apparent force, like centrifugal force is. It doesn’t mean gravity doesn’t exist.

  36. Some are trolls, some are not - don't assume everybody falls into one category.

  37. Which government? None of them (or the UN) forbid travel to Antarctica. There is a booming tourist trade with trips to various places, all which enable confirmation of a 24hr sun by FE’ers swear is impossible. Why don’t any FE’ers go?
    9
  38.  @ministermartynas7569  Principles are not facts. You said the modules wouldn’t work; I’m again asking for your reasoning. Still waiting on someone to publish evidence of cables; to date they’re arrows pointing into thin air and “just gotta be” claims.
    9
  39.  @ffrai3094 Assertion rather than argument; they never go into details about how it coukd work and certainly never explain how The Government was achieving it before The Government existed.

  40.  @2dark4noir  You find such distortion on a map that is a global projection; the 3D globe map itself has an accurate scale.
    9
  41. What do you think he got wrong and why?
    9
  42. The attitude is due to the response of FE'ers in earlier videos, i.e., a lot of abuse, a lot of claims of knowledge but zero feasible explanations.
    9
  43. It’s funny how FE’ers keep repeating the 10 Things.

  44. Why is the flight distance being beyond the plane's capability on a FE not a good point?
    9
  45. A balance between the gravitational attraction and the planets’ differing tangential velocities.
    9
  46.  @christopherschmidlin2394  He has a video posing 10 challenges for FE'ers; why can none of you meet any of them? Do you want to try?
    9
  47. He made a video in his astronomy section that explained how we know the Earth is a globe; he had of deluge of FE’ers and got sick of answering the same questions over and over.

  48. Whether it is a force or an apparent force is immaterial to the FE claim; gravity exists.

  49. Which country did Sputnik come from?

  50. Elevation =/= curvature.
