Experiment time

[jepuskar]

Ok little kiddies....time for a Scuba Board Experiment!

I am going to make a plain statement and feel free to comment on it and discuss it to your hearts content.

Here is the statement:

'The Earth is commonly thought of as being round, although a few hundred years ago it was believed to be flat'

'The Earth is commonly thought of as being round, although a few hundred years ago it was believed to be flat'

So I guess that before Niagara, the edges of the Earth were the place to go on for a fun honeymoon.

In a couple of hundred years from now the Earth will commonly be thought of as flat. Then people will say that people used the say that the Earth was round.

Its like bell bottom pants.

Let it go. Don't take the bait.

Let it go. Don't take the bait.

Sorry, it's a slow night at work, I have nothing else to do

The earth is flat:mean: it is only our skewed perceptions which make us think it is round which its not (otherwise my job would be easier). And yes it is slow night.

Bait? What Bait?

Just asking peoples comments on my little sentence. Please dont try and skew the experiment.

Thank you.

What would we do without scientists and explorers?

Maybe soon science will prove the universe isn't infinite. Books will have to be rewritten, teachings revised and skeptics will jump up and down.

You know..I read a bunch of things on how the sun is really the cause for global warming..not the retarted green house gas. (which is only a theory and there is no REAL proof to back that up since yes the earths surface is warming but the lower atmosphere is not)
But this new theory (that has proof) says that solar rays affect our lower cloud cover (responsible for cooling our surface) which in turn affects our temperature. It's really interesting.

Well of course it's flat. Everyone knows that.

Here is the proof.

I find all kinds of neat stuff on the internet on slow days.
