Warmin' up a future post for the darwin award thread are we
:)
Interesting to note: with all the things going on, the WAPO would consider a flat earth as news.

LOL, man has known the world is round for the last 40,000 years - unless he is religious or educated.
Read your bible: "Yaway" made the earth flat
( that's "yaw" as in: not "roll", and not "pitch", (both ON course)... yaw = OFF COURSE )

40,000 years ago? That's a big jump from Eratosthenes. Exactly what records did Cro-Magnon man take to record this knowledge?

Meet Sleeping Warrior, the world's worst Flat Earther. My favourite bit is his video which attempts to show that gravity doesn't exist and it's all down to density.

Flat earth is a distraction to keep people from looking at the expanding earth theory closely. A lot of scientist would be fired after having to return the money ove publishing lies whild claiming it was thruth, arrived at after along and expensice investigation. The part about the conclusion being given before the money is handed over will not be found of course.

Not that he isn't a moron but, scientists still haven't figured out exactly what "gravity" is other than some kind of attracting force. That's why there's the Law of Gravity as well as the Theory of Gravity.

We were taught (100 years ago) that every object has its own gravity field, even a marble!

You gotta wonder why them flat earthers, having observed the sun and the moon, would think the shape of the earth is any different!

They're flat and round just like the earth. And amazingly, their axes are perfectly aligned so that their flat side faces us all the time. And there's your proof that god created the universe. :lol:

Physicists know that gravity exists. It's been proven and tested - that's what a scientific theory is.

Mr Warrior, though, who's gaining a bit of a reputation online, says that gravity doesn't exist and that it's all down to density. His simple and childish assertion is that the heaviest things fall to the bottom and the lighter things float at the top. But saying it's all density is hugely flawed - it would mean we live in a world of layers. Water would always exist below people because water is denser than people. Iron objects would always exist below aluminium objects. Even the air we breathe would be layered - we'd be breathing in the likes of arsenic and radium and oxygen would be above our heads. We'd all suffocate.

There's another video where Mr Warrior tried to explain why space doesn't exist - he thinks the Sun is a small, flat object and is less dense than air and clouds, so that's why it's at the top, and he thinks the Moon is therefore denser than the Sun.

In that video he says space doesn't exist because vacuums need containers with walls - and where is such a container for the vacuum of space? He is, of course, wrong. Vacuums on Earth need containers, otherwise air would rush into the vacuum and it would no longer be a vacuum. But the vacuum of space doesn't need a container.

Sleeping Warrior aka Anthony Riley attempted to disprove gravity using an egg. This 'Relative Density Dis-Equilibrium' will be challenged and SMASHED by Mr Sensible using the humblest of ingredients... cheese!

How would gravity-deniers explain how seeds always know which direction to grow their roots and which direction to grow their leaves and flowers?
