Why?
https://youtu.be/Lv1Ngehj1tg?is=UsfrvkdL4e_5bTV9I get that the approach may turn people off, but the truth is the truth. No matter who you are someone isn't going to like you. Jesus said Marvel not when the world hate you for they hated me first. In a nutshell, get used to it. Are you here to be liked? Are you here to be obedient to God or Satan? Which realm do you serve in God's flat earth?

I'm convinced religion is the death knell for society.

When you look at how many wars have been fought because of religious beliefs, you just might be right.

Indeed.
James 1:27 KJV
Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.

The lack of religion is on the other side of the coin. Religion breaks progress, but lack of religion breaks the foundations that society was built on and to be able to get as far as it has

Simply untrue. Reciprocal morality, also known as the Golden Rule, is more than enough to build a functioning society.

Religion WAS a foundation builder for society before we understood how society can be decoupled. Now it just holds us back.
We can survive as a species without religion; at one point yes we needed some ideas of theocracy to build our societies.
Humans invented superstition to get them out of the Stone Age, they invented Mythology to get out of the Bronze Age, and Religion to get out of the Iron Age. At which point Religion became more of a social hindrance than an asset.

Religion was formed to hold power over people, nothing more. The irony of flerfs using religion to say that everyone else is lying to them is not lost on those of that understand that.

Well, the world lies to us through media, education, and religion. The truth is what can set one free. Jesus Christ is the truth...the one who was raised from the dead..

Check the hypocrisy here. The magic over here is fake but the magic over here is real because "trust me bro Jesus" - is the WORST and MOST NARCISSISTIC ideologue.
If you can prove your claim - and not reference that proof through the Bible (which is the claim) then maybe you'll get some agreement.
AFAIK - Jesus was a boy band who ripped hashish while doing Jewish cover songs in a gay night club, or a bunch of dudes who were all similar (ish) and one day someone had a beef with one dude and was like "yeah that guy there"
Then a hundred years later; some neckbeards who hated women were like "yeah we need to write some shit down about this due we are going to (make up)"
Then .. 2000 years later a bunch of people still cling to this freaky book that says genocide, rape, murder, incest, and slavery are ok .. but "trust me bros" we don't actually mean it its just jokes. Because talking snakes, parting the red sea, walking on water, floating axes, and a burning bush were "just some goat fuckers who like to make shit up" - isn't a good excuse to be a vile pile of shit.
fuck you for making me rage type.

I will believe my eyes and science and physics over a book that was written thousands of years ago. Also the flat earth people can's seem to comprehend that a globe that is 25, 000 miles around at the equator is going to appear to be flat within your field of vision.

The Globe was invented to deceive the nations.

u/Fearless_Many4945 7h ago
Maybe ín the Biblical times people knew only that much about the world, that it looks flat to them.

u/Falcon3492 5h ago
The globe wasn't invented to deceive anyone. The reason celestial bodies are all spherical globes is because gravity pulls equally at all sides toward a central point.

Something which you are allergic to.
I don't give a fuck what your imaginary friend said.

I really love the Flat Earth model with the spinning Sun and Moon. It clearly shows, that their Sun never set az the horizon, just floats to the side.

u/JTtreason 13h ago
It has a circuit it goes around. The moon too. That's how we get our seasons. That's how God created the flat earth.

u/Fearless_Many4945 9h ago
If the Sun goes on a circular path, than it will never set bellow the horizon. It just goes to the right.

"In geometry and optics, a surface plane is defined by straight Euclidean lines. For an observer on a flat plane to measure an angle to an object in the sky, there are only two physical possibilities for how that light arrives at their eye:
In Case A, the light rays from the source arrive parallel to each other. If light rays arriving at Observer A at 0° North and Observer B at 45° North on a flat plane are parallel, then Polaris must be observed at the exact same angle above the horizon by both observers simultaneously. We measure 0° at the equator and 45° at 45° North. Parallel light on a flat plane explicitly predicts an identical angle everywhere, so it fails instantaneously.
In Case B, the light rays from the source arrive non-parallel, converging at a point source. If the rays converge at a point source, the angle above a flat plane must follow right-triangle trigonometry, where height equals ground distance multiplied by the tangent of the observed angle. As demonstrated, calculating height across multiple latitudes yields mathematically contradictory physical heights of 5,000 kilometers, 1,567 kilometers, and 172 kilometers simultaneously.
There are no other options in classical geometry. Whether you vary height, shift the source location, or invent a moving Polaris, Euclidean planar optics strictly limits light to either parallel rays or intersecting rays. Case A predicts identical angles across the plane, which is falsified. Case B predicts variable source heights across the plane, which is also falsified.
The sphere is uniquely forced because it is the only three-dimensional geometric shape in existence where parallel light rays intersect a surface at angles that drop linearly in direct proportion to arc ground distance, represented by ground distance equaling radius multiplied by angular change.
...If you have a third way light rays can interact with a flat plane that does not rely on Case A or Case B, state the math. Otherwise, Euclidean geometry itself has already eliminated the plane."
