I find them baffling, what's their deal?
Is it like a religion for them or is there an actual religion?
Flat earth= god is beyond a doubt real.
Round earth= god may be real? We are not sure, probably not.
It's just a rehashed deep fried form of proselytizing as the people who fall for that shit, will surely fall for other shit, and you can even milk some money of out them like that guy who used them to build his own rocket.
God’s kinda trash for:
No, one of their core arguments is that language in the bible heavily implies that the earth is flat. Nevermind that the bible is a collection of stories from uneducated iron-age fanatics...
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firmament
Isaiah 11:12 - And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth.
Ezekiel 7:2 - Also, thou son of man, thus saith the Lord GOD unto the land of Israel; An end, the end is come upon the four corners of the land.
There is actually plenty of language in the bible that implies a flat earth. I found these examples with 5 minutes of searching.
I thought flat earthers claim the earth is a disc (which has no corners)?
Like any good religious nut, their arguments are full of contradictions.
Well sure, but only if you interpret it like a reasonable person, which they don't.
