In a world of alternate facts and ridiculous theories, the flat earth alternate fact has stood the test of time despite obvious evidence to the contrary. All NBA star and flat-earther Kyrie Irving needs to do is look out the plane window on his next flight to see the curvature of the earth. He doesn't even need to pay attention to the northward tilt of the flight path.
The Flat Earth Society has various examples of flat-earth maps such as this one by Samuel Rowbotham.
It has a nice letter coding system to help the average flat earther figure out the difference between Land (L) and Water (W). N is the north pole (more on that below) and D is...darkness?
One of the most common maps used by flat earthers is from Wilbur Glenn Voliva, an evangelist who offered a $5,000 prize for anyone who could disprove the earth is flat. By choosing to disbelieve any takers, he never had to pay the money.
What these maps have in common is that they all see the world as round-circular or elliptical. The Sun (as shown above) rotates around the equator, explaining the differences in climate. They believe in the North Pole, but not in the South Pole. The southern edges of the world are conveniently edged by a wall of ice to keep mariners from falling off. Some believe in a dome shaped sky with stars hanging down.
The belief that the South Pole cannot exist, gives rise to many conspiracy theories about why airline flight routes go the way they do. These theories are easily debunked by anyone who has flown between cities in the southern hemisphere.
Yes they don't fly over the South pole because the great circle routes are much further north.

How will this flat earth concept explain the day and night cycles. And other numerous calculations done wrt noof days, seasons, and many other things.
Also how will you explain the images or videos seen from distant away from earth.
Ant explanations for this. If no explanations then this concept of flat earth is a failure and just a thought.
Please let me know when i will get price money.🙆😁😅😂
Nice! thank you so much! Thank you for sharing. Your blog posts are more interesting and informative.

The earth is flat, but the south pole, and not the north pole is at the center. I have started The South Pole Flat Earth Society. I want everyone who joins to be heavily armed in anticipation of the ultimate war between the north and the south.
I believe that the earth is flat, outside the world we know today or behind the Antarctic ice wall, there is land that has Mount Qaff, Lake Ainul Hayat, and even the place where Yajuj and Majuj give birth. I also believe that King Solomon and King Dzulkarnain used to explore there, where there were mythological animals such as unicorns, flying horses, mermaids and even dragons there....
I also believe that in the Age of King Solomon, our imagination could not describe how it was the glass floor, the palace, the mount, and I also believe that flying horses existed because it has been confirmed by Aisha's hadith about horse dolls having wings.
I'm sure there is a power that hides the truth about it, because it can prove that the Koran and the Prophet's Prophecy are true.

The sun and moon circulation move from the (north) innermost point, travels out to the outer most point (6months) and moving inward (6months)also circulating one rotation per day. This is also the explanation for seasons! The closer it gets to the center the faster the sun becomes. Kind like a ball on a string attached to a pole in the center. As the ball spins around the pole, the rope will get shorter and the ball moves faster as it moves towards the center of the pole. Outer most parts slower. Thats why the solar radiation is more intense in the southern most counties because the sun moves slower
Thats what ive read. Thx
