If the Earth is flat, why are NONE of the JILLIONS of other astronomical bodies flat ?

[Leaning Right]

The Earth is flat? Now, that's just silly talk. On the other hand, NASA has known for decades that the Moon is actually a half-sphere. From the government's secret archives:

[sit-rep]

ive seen several of these and listening to the argument is similar to arguing with a lib... all I know is 2wice a year I got on a kiteboarding excursion somewhere on the planet, and when I fly out of Detroit, transfer flights in Newark, Dubai or some other mid east country, arrive in Thailand, Vietnam, or say the Philippines, and on returning transfer in Korea or China, and then to LAX or Chicago, back to Detroit, I never see the edge so it is a total waste of time and air, clicking into this bunk!! js...

Happy April Fools Day, everybody!

The earth can't be flat or cats would have pushed everything off the edge by now.

(Old joke but still makes me smile.)

[Rurudyne]

If the world was flat cats would have pushed everything off of it ages ago.

If it’s flat. Why haven’t I fallen off?

So Magellan’s ships did sail off the edge - all except the one that turned back (although they claimed they didn’t - obviously a coverup like the moon landings.)

And it certainly explains why I had to fly 3/4 of the way around the so called “globe” instead of what should have been the shorter way if the earth was a sphere.

The conspiracy is so large, every international airline pilot and trans-oceanic ship captain is in on it.

I believe what God says about this plane we live on. Man lies.

If the earth is flat, what causes the tides?

According to Relativity, considering Lorentz Contraction...

For cosmic ray protons, for example, moving at 99.9999999999991% of speed of light, the Earth only appears 17 meters thick, essentially flat

I make the point in this blog:
http://smithsk.blogspot.com/2015/08/physics-part-2-flat-earth-it-depends.html

So it’s all relative. ;)

Hey, Flat-earthers.....

In your flat model...

-What source of energy keeps the sun in the sky if it's only 3000 miles up? Balloons?
-What complex force makes the sun and moon travel in a circle? Jet engines? Or does it hang from a string?
-If your flat-earth moon is a disk, what's the damn point of having different phases? Wouldn't it just be simpler to have a fully-lit disk all the time?

Get out on a good contrail day, no clouds.

Those planes moving away from one leave a distinctly arched contrail as they maintain a consistent distance to the ground. Approaching aircraft are even more dramatic as they seem to be ascending, yet are seen once near overhead to have held the same altitude throughout.

In this way, one can see the curvature of the earth relative to where one is standing on it.

[BitWielder1]

Where is the edge, exactly, according to the flat earthers?
It sounds like something that should be really easy to verify, just go there and take a look.

Columbus argues the round vs. flat Earth question with the king of Spain in 1492, and goes on to discover America:

I’m fairly certain that the Earth is more or less spherical. Otherwise, how could the Sun possibly orbit it?
