Flat Earthers and what to do with them

I think I should have put 'idea' in italics :-)
It's like how that site is funny until you realise that it was written by someone who believes this crap and not Armando iannuci.

It seems from reading that, you need to believe in god to believe that the earth is flat?

There are just as many verses in the Bible that point to a spherical (or round) earth. Like anything in the Bible, it's about how you interpret it.

Ah, that I didn't know, just by looking at the site it was concentrating on the pillars of the earth and whatnot

Not that I think the moon landings were faked but there are a few things that I've seen that don't tally up

Go on...

Ah man, I know I shouldn't have said anything... one thing was the fact that there's no lunar dust on the landing pads of the capsule... surely if the dust is like a fine powder, when the capsule landed, dust would've covered the pads and legs?

dust would've covered the pads and legs

Would it? Why do you think that? Is there a specific mechanism that you are thinking of that would cause the dust to cover the pads?

Powder mixtures are fucking dreadful things. Spent about 7 years of my life trying to manage them to do what I wanted with varying levels of success and failure. Finally came to the conclusion they just have it in for me. So you must be right, they are part of the conspiracy as they are evil. ;)

No air means no downdraft.

No billowing clouds of dust either.

No air means no atmosphere either so sound doesn't travel, you can hammer metal spikes with metal hammers and not hear a thing. Here note you can't hear a sound when he drops his box and it's gently pulled down by lunar gravity.

Two things are necessary for your belief to hold out, both are present on Earth and neither on the moon.

You will need:

• A thick air atmosphere (to lift the dust and swirl it over the legs on landing)
  
• Moisture in the atmosphere (to act as an adhesive and stick the dust to the legs)
  
  

You have neither.

If anything, the evidence you present against it being real validates it further.

Ket?

Dry powder asthma inhalers.

Your suggestion sounds far more interesting though...

Surely you mean flatal shipping?

This guy's a hoot!

We are absolutely and totally insignificant we are a speck of dust in a soup of nothing expanding into a massive infinite space of nothingness.

think you're spot on there lad.

That was the killer wasn't it. He can't handle that he and us are insignificant.

This also has some lols on it:

10:47 is probably my favourite. When told it's fine for him to believe what he wants, the guy just seems a bit lost.

Jesus Christ.

I mean believe in unicorns if you really want to but don't use it to thinly veil your fear that you're not as important and special as you think you are. all this trash boils down the same thing:
"the earth must be flat because we must be the centre of the universe because we must be divine creation and we must be special because the alternative doesn't bear thinking about"

I'm actually the most important as I have killed the unicorn and know where it's corpse is.

This person has taken flat eartherism to a place it should never have gone: https://twitter.com/Xevlii/status/925504210174726144

What happens when the ice melts completely? Do we float off into space? The space which evidently is in an alternate reality because the one we’ve visited already doesn’t have a giant fucking ball of ice floating around in it
