That's weird. And I still see nothing between my #88 & #91. Maybe cause someone I quoted is on your blocked or ignore list. Ill just repost what I said. post 89 Unbridled9 The Bible doesn't say that. In fact the Bible says the opposite. It says that the world is round (Isaiah 40:22 IIRC). The reality is that ancient people knew the world was round but, outside of a select minor few groups, it was useless knowledge. I mean, they could see eclipses of the moon, ships going over horizons, and conducted actual experiments to prove it. But to a farmer intent on getting the crops in before their lords taxes them such knowledge is pointless. IIRC the 'flat earth' thing was more of an insult than reality. I.E. 'You're people are so dumb they believe the world is flat'. Even for Columbus the issue wasn't a belief of the world being round or not (they knew it was) but, rather, Columbus was basically advocating what was believed to be a suicide journey to cross what was believed to be empty ocean. He believed that the world was both pear-shaped and much smaller than it actually was which lead him to think the journey could be done while science, at the time, said he would starve. Had America not been there science would have been right and Columbus would be remembered only as probably the first to attempt such a foolish crossing. Post 90 my post Interesting fact, the world is actually slightly oval. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/earth-is-not-round/ Best article I could find but I heard of it through a youtube video. At work so not searching for it right now. Will post the video later. Side note for anyone wondering how the bible came to be and why some "books" aren't included in the bible https://www.biblestudytools.com/bible-study/topical-studies/who-decided-what-went-into-the-bible.html Side note 2 Also here is some science that we get from the bible http://www.clarifyingchristianity.com/science.shtml --- MICHALECOLE is the greatest poster of all time I have literally watched him bang my mom before <cite>yutterh posted [p:929936322] in Have you r...
