It is not the flatness of earth or its disc shape that bothers me. It is fact that we are on our own. Floating in space without knowing where in cosmos we are heading to. |

Lol. OP I have just three questions I'd like you to answer. If the earth is flat and static... 1) It would have edges. Where are they located? 2) What is responsible for the day and night phenomenon? 3) Why does the sun APPEAR to rise from the east and set at the west, casting shadows of varying length as it progresses? 4 Likes 1 Share |

Apollux: You talk like u are scientist and at the same like you are not.... Science don't just shove things down our throat... Im sure u are aware of carbon dating..this is a proven scientific method that tells d approximate age of any object containing organic material so they ddnt just quote any figure... In addition a archaeologist/ biologist need not see an entire fully connected skeletal structure to be able to determine what class of animal or species it could be. You are talking like scientist don't have enough records of existing animals for them to be able to reach some levels of conclusion.. For example a biologist can deduce so many information from just a skull...without seeing the remaining part of the skeleton.. a skull alone can tell if an animal is reptile or mammal, the skull will also carry the dentition which will give information of either flesh eaters or herbivores or omnivores...and so many more An ordinary pelvic girdle bone can tell if it's male or female..if it's egg laying or mammal, if it had a tail or not,....if it had given birth before or not.... And the more a full size dinosaur remains has never been seen is what made scientist speculate that probably a catastrophic phenomenon probably caused them to extinct...Bones do not decay...if full length skeleton of mummys have been recovered in ancient egypt and Tanzania where the oldest human bones have been seen .....it only means the scientist were right about their speculation of a large explosion hitting earth scattering every single living thing.. So oga..these are not random conclusion they shove down our throat...though I partially agree that mistakes could happen. thats why research keeps going on to either counter a claim or further support it. And there have been enuf supporting research than counter claim 1 Like |

coolsegun2002:Sorry to point dis out to u but carbon dating have never been accepted as accurate, the best u get from it is approximate . Now to further surprise u, archeologists when carbon dating fossils, don't actually get the dates from the bones themselves but from the surrounding rocks in which the bones are found ( don't just take my word for it, go and research it, Google it.) The truth is u just have to stop accepting what u have been taught in school for once and just use ur mind and think. Imagine a technique used in determining the age of a fossil, and it tells you this animal died between 150 to 200 million years ago. U relay on a measuring parameters that has a margin of error of 50million years. Do u know what that means, it can't narrow down the time of death more than 50 million years. Its not 1,or 2 or 5 or even 10 years, but 50 million years. Can u imagine such magnitude of uncertainty. Dat alone shows the unreliability of carbon dating. The best advice I can give to u is to try and think for yourself. Bob Marley says "emancipate yourself from mental slavery" I still believe the earth is spherical but flat earthers have raised valid points that have got me to really think and stop taking everything I have been taught for granted 5 Likes 2 Shares |

Even with the great advancement in science in our time yet we can't seem to know exactly the geometrics of how everything in space works... Even as I see many holes in our present religious teachings and beliefs I still can't rule out the God factor in the formation of the universe cos it can be absolute only a supreme being that can put such a limit to our knowledge... Fear God! |

Billyonaire: you are wrong. The earth as a planet is nearly spherical with protrusion at the poles. If you are right, there will be no space exploration. |

Apollux:Then start trying to answer them instead of saying it's wrong. Science never claims to have all the answers;that's why continuous studies are still being carried out. Until you have a better answer, you don't have the right to disprove the works of credible scientists. |

jaycyclopedia:Do you know that the sun is a star? It's the closest 1 to our solar system & you can feel its effect, how terrible the heat can be on some days. Can you look directly at the sun when it's shining? It is the primary source of heat & energy to our planet. The only reason we have nighttime is when the part of the earth's surface we are in isn't facing the direction of the sun's rays. Imagine if other stars were as close to the earth as the sun. Do you think earth would be habitable? Most of those stars we see are even bigger than the sun yet they look like twinkling specks to us. Why? Commonsense should tell us that it's due to the very long distance. Even the brightest of lights would look dim & eventually even fade at a distance. 2 Likes 1 Share |

I have a very simple logic that will end this discussion. This is it: If the earth is NOT round, how is it possible to travel by air from tokyo in Japan to Vancouver in the USA (in just eight hours) without having to come back through asia, europe and the America (which will probably take up to 48 hrs)? I need your answer if you understood my question, lol. 1 Like |

Pinnacle: Does driving a bicycle around a circular flat plane in 2d mean the flat plane is round in 3d shape? Schools have been doing a particularly wonderful job. Its unfortunate that even when evidences are so glaring to ones eyes, one still decide to be closed minded Just because some idiot who lived centuries ago said something Something that has never been proven Its hilarious how people disbelieve their own eyes and senses and chose to follow dem say dem say Stupid morons who don't read, never read outside their school books even find it hard to understand 70% percent of our modern day technologies owe to just one man Tesla. Yet I didn't know about him till I got into a university. Now I see why the world is like this I used to wonder what these so called fraternities were fighting for I mean we aren't in the slave trade anymore so what's the freedom they are all yearning for? And I also see why they hate the so called Jews and why the world is upside down There are more fools than sane people in this world Let everyone keep enjoying whatever they believe in The hypocrites who call Muslims terrorists have never read in the bible the inhumane acts it holds? The fools who call Christians sheeps fail to realise their prophet Mohammed also believed the black man as a sub human.

gemale: The question is what is fact? What does the word mean? What does it mean to be a scientist? What does it mean to carry out scientific procedures? How are scientific procedures followed? Do you just need to wear a labcoat to be called a scientist? Present your facts. My eyes need to be satisfied before my mind. If that's not your way, then I am afraid its not empirical research. Think about it, did you know that all your theories on the globe earth cannot be proven with practical science? That's why you rely on computer generated images to tell you what to believe. You honestly believe a telescope which is 365,000,000 light years away is snapping selfies of Jupiter and sending it back to you? Do you even know what a light year is? Which camera is snapping he telescope as it is around Jupiter? And you call yourself a scientist? |

SWYM:please stop all these already, you became unserious to me that moment you said you traveled from Lagos to Ilorin often and you haven't seen any curve. You also said he objects are attracted to the surface of the earth based on density without knowing that even density is a factor of gravity. You are not making sense at all. |

What surprised me mainly is not the fact that the OP stumbled on conspiracy theorist online and took them for their words after sleeping through science class while he was in school. It is the fact that dozens of people are supporting his claims. So we have so many ignorant people on nairaland. The earth os flat sorrounded by a wall of ice in antartica. Unbelievable. So what happens if in try to travel to the end of the earth to see the wall of ice myself?. I will be shot dead by scientists so as not to expose them abi? An understanding of basic science would have cleared a lot of this misconceptions. |

legislatively: I agree and I accept I am not making any sense to you. But Gravity is "the force that attracts a body toward the center of the earth, or toward any other physical body having mass. For most purposes Newton's laws of gravity apply, with minor modifications to take the general theory of relativity into account" Do you u know where the centre of the earth is? Do you feel attracted there? Look it all boils to you believing in yourself or not I can point to you other more compelling proofs but if you believe there is nothing reasonable that can come out of this, then I am afraid there is nothing I can do. You have eyes You have a brain You have a mind Don't be told this is what this is And that that Cant you sit down and deduce things out for yourself? |
