I doubt your colorations of this presentation will matter in the long haul. In the long haul nothing matters, I was just stating some observations Once again rebuttable to your assertion was ignored, what happened to the gas Edited June 12, 2020 by peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a vacuum chamber you have a 1000 mph spinning ball covered in water and gaseous atmosphere and gravity holds all this stuff together. My world makes more sense.

Avoiceinthecrowd Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 Of course this has to be a ball too. Is this where we delete the molten core idea? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avoiceinthecrowd Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 Polaris can be seen up to 23.5 degrees south latitude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is only one problem , space is not an empty vacuum about time you put something up we both agree on, (In a vacuum chamber you have a 1000 mph spinning ball covered in water and gaseous atmosphere and gravity holds all this stuff together) ,and MY world dose make more sense 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno, friend, it seems odd that you care so much about this topic to "waste time debunking flat earthers," yet REFUSE to go experiment for yourself. It seems like you are just avoiding this issue for some reason. Anyone today can go measure the earth for oneself and as our technology continues to evolve, the simple point regarding horizons will become self evident.

How selective, lol. From the above it would follow that you should prove that: --We live on a ball --It moves And yet 28 pages in and not one of you have come close to any proof of either.

Yes, you refused to even address the point that observed change in angular size of the moon falsifies flat earth theory because your theory predicts that the size should change every night when in fact it cycles only roughly every month. 1 hour ago, bflat said: From the above it would follow that you should prove that: Your standard of proof is irrelevant, and you can't address the point.

You refuse to provide evidence that we live on one of the freemason's balls. I don't care to explain any of these red herrings. Please start a thread on this as it HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE SHAPE OF OUR EARTH, NOR IF IT MOVES and stop ignorantly claiming anything has falsified anything you do not even understand. 10 minutes ago, theo102 said: Your standard of proof is irrelevant, and you can't address the point. My standard of proof is irrelevant as we are discussing objective reality. If you have any proof, just post it already. 28 pages in, bro. Seriously, you just stated the burden of proof is on the claimant.

bflat Posted June 12, 2020 Author Share Posted June 12, 2020 14 hours ago, peter said: So what your saying if you have a vacuum chamber in a lab you have to ask to what degree of vacuum do you want , A total vacuum or or just a few air molecules or maybe a 90% vacuum , you should be specific. lets just say there is a 100% vacuum in the chamber and all the air has been removed,then through another line you open a valve and you put a small amount of oxygen ,argon ,nitrogen etc etc it don't matter because according to you a gas and a vacuum can't exist unless there is a barrier to separate the gas from the vacuum, so where dose the gas go . I know this was not directed at myself, but I want to thank you for finally hitting one of the five points in the OP. I was actually quite clear with definitions and if you took time to actually respond to the OP, you would know that. From the OP: We are told that the greatest vacuum known to us is that of the "infinite vacuum of space." In fact, Interstellar/Deep Space = ~10^-17 Torr. To put that in perspective, nasa’s vacuum chamber with her two feet thick metal wall that is enclosed by six to eight feet thick cement walls, can only achieve 10^-6. The point? It is physics that falsifies the entire freemason space-ball theory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
