Fragment, you are just making unverified claims. Where are the scientific peer reviewed papers which shows how all factors excluding the motion of the earth causes the pendulum to change direction according to a predicted path based upon the location on earth?

That is actually the excuse given by your ilk when it is shown objects can clearly be seen when they should be below the curvature of the earth.

For example, Chicago can be seen from Michigan, over 50 miles away, and the curvature calculation based upon the claimed size of the globe says Chicago should be 1,700 feet below the curvature.

The excuse given is the light curves at the exact rate as the curvature of the earth. lol, you people will believe anything to not have to know there is a creator.

No Chicago can't, it's Anti-Chicago which can be seen from over 50 miles away it's the same as Chicago just upsidedown.

Hey, do planes have to consistently fly downwards to keep their altitude, because the earth will curve down and away from them if they fly straight and level.

lol

Gyroscopes disprove a round moving earth.

I am very interested in your planetarium model. Would you be willing to discuss this in depth in a dedicated thread?

I am very interested in why you believe in a moving sphere earth when there is no scientific evidence of such.

Are you willing to defend your belief?

It's your planetarium model I'm interested in. Are you willing to defend that belief?

Ever wonder why "the sky is the limit" is an idiom?

What you are not understanding is that the globe belief has no scientific evidence supporting it, only proclamations from scientism.

Obviously you are both unable and unwilling to defend this, in your mind, self apparent belief.

lol

Do planes fly downwards as they travel? Come on globe believer, this should be easy for such a self apparent "fact" as the moving globe is in your mind.

I believe the earth is not moving, nor is it a globe.

Yes, I will defend this.

You believe the earth is a moving pear-shaped oblate spheroid, you can't and will not defend your belief.

I will bet, if you engage, I will have to educate you on what you believe. Most moving globe thinkers don't even understand what they believe.

I'm not interested in what you think it is not. I'm interested in what you think it is. You specifically advanced a model of a flat earth with a planetarium-like sky. Are you willing to defend that?

No, I presented an analogy to explain a question some one had.

As is typical with scientism true believers, you can not defend your belief with science, and must immediately move on to dishonest tactics of attacking strawmen.

All I know for sure is the earth is not a moving sphere.

Maybe you need to ask yourself why you need something to attack instead of being able to defend your certainty in the model you desire is real.

Basically your position is we all live on a Star Trek holodeck, and are asking others to prove something else is true instead of defending your holodeck belief system.

Any evidence you are not on the holodeck is dismissed from thought by you in favor of trying to attack any alternative.

Ask yourself why you can not rationaly and scientifically evidence you live on a holodeck.

Do planes on your globe fly straight and level, or do they fly downwards to keep altitude as the earth curves away?

Typical Jerome. Nearly gets caught actually making a positive claim about something and just weasels out of it. I expected as much. Anyone, on with less boring things in this thread.

Oh come on. The Earth is a tesseract. When you throw a Pokeball at a pokemon, it's not so they are captured, it's so they return to the real world while it is we who are their reality simulation inside a pokeball reality simulator. The pokemon we see are actually AI researchers tinkering and taking readings within the machine. Wake up, Mareeple!
