Bottom line, we live on a really ugly planet full of war and hatred. Everyone that disagrees with us can fuck off because that's that(poes law). Part of science is studying every angle regardless if you think it's wrong. Theories are just an idea and not fact. I am not saying the world is flat, just opening the topic.

I caught that, too. Not a CGI image, per se, but a conglomerate view. Here is an actual photo...

I know it seems a stretch, but look at similarities in different geographical locations regarding the cloud formations. If you look closely you will see repeating formations or copy and paste shit to the layman.

Flight camera at 68,000 feet...I spy curvature.
Now turn your head to the side and look at it for a second. Again I'm not saying the earth is flat but you really cant tell from that vantage point. Do it, turn your head to the side and wait just a few seconds for your brain to catch up. Nonetheless You will see the flat plane these individuals are talking about.

It's much more so a planet full of love, relative peace, and beauty. It's a large reason why there are 7 billion of us and climbing...

That's not really how the scientific method works -



The scientific method starts with observation. All angles cannot present themselves for observation, since some don't actually exist. The scientific method can be employed to test the veracity of false ideas, and if done correctly the idea will show itself as false.

Theories are just an idea and not fact. I am not saying the world is flat, just opening the topic.
Theory is the highest form of scientific knowledge, and it consists of facts. Theory in the scientific sense is much different than laymen use the term -

Full Definition of theory
plural theories

  1. 1 : the analysis of a set of facts in their relation to one another

  2. 2 : abstract thought : speculation

  3. 3 : the general or abstract principles of a body of fact, a science, or an art <music theory>

  4. 4a : a belief, policy, or procedure proposed or followed as the basis of action <her method is based on the theory that all children want to learn>b : an ideal or hypothetical set of facts, principles, or circumstances —often used in the phrase in theory <in theory, we have always advocated freedom for all>
  5. 5 : a plausible or scientifically acceptable general principle or body of principles offered to explain phenomena <the wave theory of light>

  6. 6a : a hypothesis assumed for the sake of argument or investigationb : an unproved assumption : conjecturec : a body of theorems presenting a concise systematic view of a subject <theory of equations>
The sense that science uses the term is highlighted in red. Theory attempts to explain natural phenomena, the phenomena itself is
'fact'. I'm not trying to be pedantic, it is important to be specific regarding terms when speaking of the scientific method as opposed to using them in a casual sense. If not, equivocation will rear rear its ugly head...

You're grasping at straws and it took you a very long time to respond to that. I don't feel your point directly responds to what I said. All I asked from you was to look at the picture you quoted me, observation is scientific data I agree on that.

Let's examine your logic: Neither you nor I are meteorologists or experts at weather patterns. You see patterns in the clouds, i.e. the weather, in the photo I posted. That's not surprising, it is why they are called 'Weather Patterns'. You are using your amateur assessment of cloud formations to provoke doubt that it is an actual photo of the Earth? This does not seem like sound logic or a strong critical thinking process...

I do know about cloud formations, would you like some links? Anyone that studies cloud formations can see the copy and paste. You're not really looking at the picture. I know you have the software to zoom in and take a look. Quit shooting your mouth off and take a look. You will see your picture is a fake. I don't fucking give a rats ass if the earth is flat or round. What I do know is that picture is dr.ed
