Undeniable Proof That The World IS Flat

First of all, I want you to know: the proof is real. [u][i][b]The world is flat.[/b] [/u][/i]To prove this I would like to offer two intuitive, undeniable proofs. First, Jumping. Jumping proves that the world is flat. If the world were indeed "spinning" a simple jump and the ground would move beneath your feet. Imagine throwing a paper airplane form a moving truck: same concept. The plane is gone the second it is released. Helicopters also illustrate this principle. Why do we take jets everywhere? If the world rotated we could just fly up and let the world below "spin" to our destination. Lastly, if the world actually spun around at 10,000 mph we would all be flung off like someone on the outside of the gravatron ride at the fair. So why do so many believe what is intuitively absurd? People believe what their society teaches them. They swallow "[b][i]this is true cuz science says[/i][/b]" explanations without any demonstrative, intuitive proof. The Neo-Liberal agenda has been afoot for centuries now. It started with an alchemist getting hit with an apple under an apple tree, who thought mercury could be turned into gold. It continues today with schools that reinforce beliefs that perpetuate the social economic system. A prisoner of a round earth is a subjugated being; a being far more willing to pay it's taxes.

Or, Earth round cuz Newton[/b][/i]" responses. Edit 2: Some food for thought: [spoiler]The soldiers of truth and reason of the Flat Earth Society have drawn the sword, and ere another generation has been educated and grown to maturity, will have forced the usurpers to abdicate. Like the decayed and crumbling trees of an ancient forest, rent and shattered by wind and storm, the hypothetical philosophies, which have hitherto cumbered the civilized world, are unable to resist the elements of experimental and logical criticism; and sooner or later must succumb to their assaults. The axe is uplifted for a final stroke - it is about to fall upon the primitive sphere of the earth, and the blow will surely “cut the cumberer down!” http://www.theflatearthsociety.org/tiki/tiki-index.php[/spoiler]

    • Then how come people go around the world by going in one direction and end up where they were without falling off? Do they just fall off and fall reverse back to the other side or do they go underground and then come back? Or do they fall off the ledge and never come back? Please halp.

          How do you respond to circumnavigation and NASA's pictures and scientific evidence? Also, the only reason I liked this is so I can see how rekt you are by the end of the day. Ps, what's on the bottom? And... Do you think we're just a giant piece of paper floating around? ALSO... Look at the moon. What do you think that is. Have you ever seen it when it's massive?

            • Due to the laws of gravity in disc-shaped objects, if you were to walk to the edge of the world your body would be basically parallel. At the center you'd be the only person to be standing perfectly straight up.

                    • We have pictures of the world, it's not flat. Clouds can travel over 100mph, a lot of the time just 30 or 40mph. Then why does it not look like it's not moving as fast as a baseball being thrown? Because it's much bigger than a baseball. We can't really feel the world moving because it's Just too big. You know that one race track in NASCAR that is I believe the largest track in the world? Well, it's supposed to be built nice and flat right? Well, because it's so big, the people building it had to take into consideration the curve in the earths surface. If you were to put a flat stick across the whole track, there would be a few feet difference between one end and the other (I think 7 feet). You should look it up.

                        Inertia. Also, earth spins at 1000 mph, not 10,000. Gravity keeps us from getting flung off.

                        • You're an idiot. You have no idea how the laws of motion work. Gravity holds us down and we travel as fast as the object we're on. If you were in a moving truck and you jumped while it was moving, you wouldn't go flying back unless it stopped.

                          • The earth's gravitational pull keeps us on earth. Also we move at the same speed the earth spins that's why when you drop a ball on a bus the ball doesn't fly back because its moving the same speed as the bus is.

                            • Omg Just stop FIRST OFF the only reason why we don't move when we jump is because of our gravity I didn't even have to read the rest

                              • First off, the earth rotates at roughly 800 miles per hour. Second off, we don't get left behind because we are adjusted to that speed. We are all going the same speed, therefore we just fall back to the same spot. Lastly, people have sailed around the world. How do you end up in the same spot you started while going in one direction if the earth was flat. [spoiler]let's just lower the b8 a little more. ;)[/spoiler]
