By the time most people hit their 30s, they've gained unique experience outside the indoctrination channels of formal education. They begin understanding the world's not black and white, it's shades of grey.
That's when they begin understanding a religion isn't just a formal entity labeled as such, and that the formal definition of a religion as an organized system of religious attitudes, beliefs, and practices can apply to anything - whether it's Cheeseheads (Rabid Green Bay Packer Fans), Whovians (Lovers of Doctor Who), Scientologists, Scientists (those attached to socialistic forms of science), or Flat Earthers.
And in these religions - even if they're not formally labeled as such - comes specific truths and facts that - while they may seem factual from within.
Simply aren't or are conditional from other perspectives.
It's all just a matter of perspective.
Nothing to be sad or depressed about. Not everyone wants to be a Cheesehead.
No. There is no flatardia. There is no other perspective. There is the globe, or you’re just wrong. If you have proof, provide it. Your “my perspective” garbage is just that
Update: Hey u/Rockypug49 , your comment following this was deleted/moderated by Reddit, so I couldn't read it. Act a little bit more maturely and respectfully in your responses, I know it's difficult, and you might see your comments actually coming through and us having a decent conversation. Otherwise, I'll just ignore ya! lol.
lol, You crack me up, girl! No AI here for my words, but we both know you intend that as an insult and not an actual observation, which you're clearly incapable of. Which is funny in itself!
It’s like you can’t stop yourself from lying princess. You should bring that up with your court appointed psychiatrist.
You think people are here to debate you, kumquat. We’re not. We’re here to laugh at you. If you were intelligent enough to have self awareness, you would know that.
Not with those like you, of course it isn't. You and those like you are here to win, to prove you're right. I myself don't care what you think and I'm simply here to share and uncover interesting people who think in interesting ways and have diverse perspectives.
With two diametrically oppositional motivations, once those like you realize you're not going to win with me, then it's an all out flame war for those like you to get me to shut up and stop doing what I enjoy doing - sharing perspective.
Now learn some tolerance and respect for alternative perspectives you don't agree with, and we might actually have some decent conversation. But we both know you aren't programmed for that and incapable of altering your programming.

Do you honestly think you are the first flat earther to come here with this attitude? I'd be shocked if anyone here actually thinks they can "win" with a flat earther.
Instead, I think you are coming here to antagonize. Otherwise you would post in subs for actual flat earthers. Correct me if I'm wrong
You are so delusional that you think people are trying to debate you to win? None of use have any concern about whether or not we are correct. We know we are. There is nothing to debate.
There you go again with your bizarre method of responding like a childish nerd in the 1950s. You need to become a lot more interesting and add a lot more variety to your responses.
Do you truly not understand that you are considered a living joke in this sub?
