    All matter including you is just condensed waves of energy.So in mind of that fact the earth is neither round or flat.

    This is based on quantum physics which can't be proved. Therefore, you've proved nothing.
    How dare you i know for a fact this is right. Jesus told me himself while he rode a unicorn over the moon.
    The last time I said something like that in the forum (4 days ago) I got a strike and was told 2 more times and I'm permanently banned. The first amendment doesn't apply on here. So because of this event, I expect 2 things to happen:

    1- out of fairness, a moderator will give you a strike
    2- said moderator will tell you to not speak of religion or else they will push you off the end of the earth if it is flat. However, if it turns out to be round, they will push you off the side and you will keep falling around it since it's spinning and you will spend an eternity falling to your death but never land. (think about it.if you fall off the side and it keeps spinning - you can't ever hit it. This may be the proof I needed)

    I fully believe jesus was a real man. Unicorns and the moon have no religious connotations inside the main religions.( i doubt Druids or buddist related posts would be deleted. nothing i posted should be offensive to nyone with sense.

    Dude, all I said was the word "atheist" and I got a strike.
    Frick, now I said it again... =\ ....
    You can't say that first line on here.
    Heck, if you thought unicorns were gods - that alone would be too much religious speak - aka strike material.

    haha ive seen atleast 20 titles with god in the title this week. a couple about heaven and one about ghost. why dont these get delted?

    Everybody's different. There is no one size fits all solution to the shape and topology of the earth. I don't care how many studies you cite.

    The planet is so big it can afford to be flat.

    lets take a large beach ball and put a dog on it. It will obviously fall off.
    Now, put a dust mite on there, and there is plenty of flat space.


    It's flatly round. :drinker:

    So THAT is why I got my first warning! I spoke of being an ath--- someone who doesn't have a religion--- when I first got on here. I thought I was being warned because I was being rude, but I have been rude since then, and nada! So.. that's what it's all about! One of the moderators hates ath**sts! LOL. Busted!

    Oh, if it were flat, I'd' have an easier time running mileage. Don't ask people who live in the mountains that question...

    If it's flat, how are we able to dig to China?

    China is on the other side of the flat earth.

    Your response is so big it can afford to be right.

    lets take a large response and put a fact in it. It will obviously be off.
    Now, put a word in there, and there is plenty of space to be right.

    It's correctly wrong. :drinker:

    A hexagon is 2 dimensional. Therefore flat.

    Fail.

    I read an article about how they suck the fat out of one spot and inject it in another.
    Maybe it's an hour-glass shape now?

    Correction. Someone had to report you first. The moderators just acted on it.
    What it means is someone who hates ath**sts reported you and then the mods went for it.

    "round" and "flat" are highly offensive terms and meant to belittle and demean.

    The earth prefers to be called "curvy".
