theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=11211.0

I posted this in my hometown forum, but the damn site held my interest for two hours, and every friend I emailed it to laughed in complete stupor, so I figured I'd share it here. Maybe its a dupe. I dunno. But start reading under the heading "Government."

I mean, seriously, wow. Half of me thinks the whole site is a joke, and half of me really does believe there are enough people in this world who are THAT far off their rockers to make this a legit site. Either way, its hilarious.

I couldn't get past this.

Q: "Why do the all the world Governments say the Earth is round?"

A: It's a conspiracy

Q: "What about NASA? Don't they have photos to prove that the Earth is round?"

A: NASA is part of the conspiracy too. The photos are faked.

Work to get past it. It gets better, trust me, MUCH better. Wait until you learn about the moon and the sun and the stars. Everything we learned in school is false

In my paper writing days I would reference the shit out of that site just to see what grade I would get.

I'll try, but I might end up with brain damage.

Call me gullible, but I'm convinced--

Q: "Why do you guys believe the Earth is flat?"

A: Well, it looks that way up close.

What is the motive for the conspiracy? What proof do they provide? Usually conspiracy wackos just poke at the theory and provide no proof.

Q: "What about the stars, sun and moon and other planets? Are they flat too? What are they made of?"

A: The sun and moon, each 32 miles in diameter, circle Earth at a height of 3000 miles at its equator, located midway between the North Pole and the ice wall. Each functions similar to a "spotlight," with the sun radiating "hot light," the moon "cold light." As they are spotlights, they only give light out over a certain are which explains why some parts of the Earth are dark when others are light. Their apparent rising and setting are caused by optical illusions.

In the "accelerating upwards" model, the stars, sun and moon are also accelerating upwards.

The stars are about as far as San Francisco is from Boston. (3100 miles)

And the Sun revolves around the Earth.

It's no joke brothers. I have been to the ice wall. It is like Mad Max on ice, at the center you can see Supermans fortress of solitude.
