I know I am not suppose to make fun of someone's belief but I just met a person who believes the Earth is Flat. He thinks all of the Space footage showing earth is nothing but CGI. He also think all pictures of Earth were nothing but Photoshop and he is very deadly serious about it. I tried to debate him about it but he is being butthurt about it. He is still in denial. How I wish I am a Zillionaire. I would have given him a trip to the space station along his flat earth theorist friends. So why would the American government spends millions of dollars for CGI just to make everyone believe the Earth is flat.
The following 6-hour documentary is currently the most complete and comprehensive presentation of the Flat Earth truth available to date. Narrated by Eric Du...

@CaptAlbertWhisker 127 is a bit under average for a PhD student. I am not sure I would consult this doctor, even for a medical advice.

I have a friend whose latest thing is that the Earth is flat (before that, Mars was inhabitable and NASA were covering that up by broadcasting pictures of living things on Mars to the entire population (not a very good cover-up in my eyes) and prior to that Earth was going to be destroyed by Planet X, a brown dwarf that we wouldn't see until it was too late). Every time he has a drink he keeps repeating this mindless drivel he's seen on YouTube, and he's impossible to argue with about it.
Some people shouldn't use the internet. Heck, there's more chance that we're living in the Matrix. I worked out to cover-up the Earth being flat would require a conspiracy of approximately 7.4 billion people.

@CaptAlbertWhisker Easily disprovable theories (actually, they may not even be classed as theories, using the scientific definition). I keep telling him to take a telescope to the top of the hospital (the tallest building in the area) and tell me what he sees of a towns to the west of here. The land's flat, so he'd easily be able to see them. Everyone would have to be in on it, including the Flat Earth theorists themselves!

@egdcltd I realized the earth is around when I was 9 years old and I was on a cruise ship. I see the ocean looking spherical from afar.

I know some people who believes everything they see on Youtube but this one is the most mind blowing one I ever met. I mean Illuminati is much miore easier to believe than flat earth. I mean people who believes in Illuminati at least have some documents even though its hard to see their authenticity. Flat earth theorists only have theories.

@CaptAlbertWhisker Ice walls? With the earth warming up as much as it has been doing, these ice walls can't possibly stand for too long .

Did you ever tried to convince him or is he a hopeless case as well? I found out there are millions of flat earth theorist on earth and many of them are educated.

His religion might have something to do with it. There is a scripture on his holybook saying earth is flat.

@skysnap That man thinks dinosaur bones are fake that they were molded by scientists so people will stop believing in God. I have a religion but I believe dinosaurs existed.

Some people are so stuck in their beliefs that they don't want to accept any truths. How old is this person you were talking to? It seems as if they are pretty young to be believing in something so silly!

He is a 25 year old Pre-med student. Yes this person is about to become a doctor. Imagine a person who believes the world is flat is about to become a doctor.

These people existed before the Earth is proven round but some of them remained eventhough it has been for centuries.

@DnkHrth LOL they think its CGI and Hollywood special effects. If I am super rich I want to give them a trip to the space station so they can see our planet is a ball and not a pancake.

@CaptAlbertWhisker Yeah. It is really stupid to believe something like that these days. Because you have every proof needed to see the earth is round.

@CaptAlbertWhisker I know a guy who thinks the world was created 5k years ago. His church is more devoted to "proving" that "theory" than they are to helping the poor, and other things that Jesus asked us to do. It's weird.

I'm currently listening to "Stupefy" by Disturbed, because that's how I feel... I am utterly stupefied by the fact that in 2016 there are STILL people who believe that the Earth is flat. How?! HOW?! HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE?!

They found a thing called internet and believe any information they read from it. I notice most flat earth theorist got their beliefs from the internet.

What? You mean the earth is not flat? This bit of earth I am standing on is flat. It must be flat. I am just off to Australia to prove it. Oh maybe not. I might fall off the end.
Of course, they want us to believe the earth is flat or we all lose gravity.
Seriously :)

I think this person is just "nagpapansin" or seeking for attention, that's why he believe on that. You're just wasting your time if you will continue arguing with him. His belief is not base on sound reason. Just my thoughts.

He is actually serious about it. He is blushing red in anger when I try to point out how wrong he is.
