Firstly, Don't insult people. Not only is it against the forum rules, you won't convince anyone the Earth is either flat or a sphere by insulting them, so let's keep this civil .... ok?
Now, the Earth must be flat, right? I mean, I look out of my window and it looks flat, so therefore, logically it must be.
The Earth is a sphere, or more accurately, an oblate-spheroid. The evidence is overwhelming.
But if the Earth was a sphere, why do maps draw it as flat?
We can prove the Earth is a sphere in a thousand different ways using experiments dating back to ancient Greece.
EDIT: I probably should state here, I am firmly in the sphere-Earth camp, but I do find it interesting how those who believe in a flat Earth actually manage to do experiments to prove the Earth is flat and either prove it's round or fail to understand where they went wrong.
So I am hoping you excellent forum members can enlighten me as to the flat Earth arguments and why they are wrong .... or maybe they are right? Convince me.
