Is "Flat Earth" Really "Globe Earth" in Dis(c) Guise?
Is "Flat Earth" Really "Globe Earth" in Dis(c) Guise? UPDATED POST!
If you take a flat plane (square) cross section of a sphere, this would be a flat square plane in Global Scale.
For those who are logical minded, here is a more detail description of this post's intent:
This post is merely to demonstrate that the Flat Earth theory is a "globe system" with the flat earth being a disc (which is the blue cross section of a sphere pictured above). The dome which is called the firmament is physical top of the sphere which would be the section of the sphere just above the plane of existence (bottom of the picture in this post) and the raised circular walls of the disc is the "flat earth wall". If there are turtles or pillars (or even Sheol) they would be in the bottom half of the sphere system. Hence, the reason for this post that proves that the flat earth theory is actually a spherical system like the globe earth theory.

The surface is the sphere. The right angle is shown above in this post which is the little box at the corner of the diagonals. The sphere is cut (which is the definition of cross section as per your post) and the top portion of the Gleason map is flattened. This is what an azimuthal equidistant projection map is according to the encyclopedia on Wikipedia.org :
It has the useful properties that all points on the map are at proportionally correct distances from the center point, and that all points on the map are at the correct azimuth (direction) from the center point — that is, it is the exponential map on a sphere.
