Everyone smart knows that the Earth is CUBIC.

You round earthers are retards.

Actually I had tags on three of them. And now a fourth has just outed himself.

Keep in mind this is just what I happen to find in my encounters and I’m not even here very often. You are another one who hates on SpaceX because you find it politically expedient, even if you don’t go as far as publicly accusing them of hoaxing their launches.

All because you disagree with the politics of its CEO, even though that has nothing to do with the fact that they are successfully lowering the cost of launches through innovative methods of re-use and free market competition. You were pissed they won a contract to launch an air force satellite even though that same launch would normally cost several times as much if it had been launched on the next most powerful (and expendable) rocket available. You’ve blinded yourself to reality for the sake of political expediency, that’s a mistake we should leave to the left to make.
A British Pilot was talking to a group about his ordeals during the War. He explained how he was surrounded by enemy planes.
“Well, there was a Fokker above me and a Fokker blow me and one Fokker on each side”
The group leaders said “Oh wait a minute.. perhaps you should explain the the people that a Fokker was the name of a German Aircraft”
So he says “Oh Yeah, but these Fokkers was flying Messerschmidts”
Actually it’s video proof that explains a “mysterious” news item. But go ahead and try to get it censored because it disagrees with you. Unbelievable.
There’s differing viewpoints, and then there’s outright crazy.
It was in Thunderball.
You must realize that intellectual (important) people, 99% of FReepers recognize the level of crazy in these folks, right?
Don’t get so worked up over them. Just troll them with facts and let their crazy be on display for the rest of us to laugh at. I read through several of your links and even had a run in with that crowd several years ago (just once).
Like this....
Space travel is real!
The Morman Religion and is a farce!
LMAO!
Met Bull once. Force of nature.
Fox 13, Tampa posted a picture on Facebook. It was weird looking.

And yet, it will always be like that. If there is one thing the history of science can teach us, it is that when man is wrong about a theory it can take many, many years to overturn it. The Geocentric theory got around 2000 years of defense until the overthrow by Galileo, Kepler, and Copernicus.
So, for those of us that like accurate science, we are sometimes in for a wait to have nonsense removed. I am just not sure how long we will have to wait on man-made global warming, long-earth, and evolution theory to get out of the way.
And here we are in the year 2018 and we still have people believing that the Earth is flat. The problem with these people, just as with the geocentrists before them, is that they deny the evidence proving them wrong when it is given to them.
I think most of these people will go to their graves continuing to believe that they were right. Science is not the problem. Willful ignorance is the issue. It needs to be shamed and destroyed by continuous ridicule. Flat earthers need to be evicted from Free Republic. They are a disgrace to this forum.
You could literally round up a half dozen of these crazies, put them on a rocket, launch them into space and return them to earth, they would be convinced it was all just an elaborate illusion.
It’s like trying to explain the science to a Man Made Global Warming liberal.
That’s a real satellite image, BTW.
If the Earth isn’t cubic in shape, then why is the volume of the Earth measured in CUBIC meters?
None of these round earthers have ever been able to answer that question satisfactorily.
I must admit, flat earth belief is incredibly bad since simply walking to a shore line can reveal the curved horizon. I am not sure banning them would be true to how we operate here. Given a capitalist approach, I would think allowing the posts, but seeing that no comments/attention given to them would be more apt?
As it stands, even early Christians new the earth to be a spherical object. Benedictus Arias Montanus translation, printed in 1528, used ‘globus’ for Isaiah 40:22. Oh, and you can also remind flat earthers of Job 26:7, that God “hangs the earth on nothing” instead of physical pillars.
But early Christian beliefs haven’t stopped Preterism. The Bible even recounts the first preterists as heretics - yet they exist on today (2 Timothy 2:17–18). I doubt it will stop flat earthers.
Actually, it’s a dodecahedron, and it’s been used as a die by cosmic dungeon masters in a macro game of Dungeons and Dragons.

I disagree, I see it as no different than banning libtards, racists, and other extremists. If Free Republic simply allows anti-scientific ignorant posters to ruin the reputation of conservatives by playing right into libtard stereotypes then we will lose our identity as conservatives and undermine our own efforts. We wouldn’t allow that to happen on other matters, say someone outwardly professing to be conservative who also rants about “the jews” being the cause of every ill in the world.
