It exists. But I think they're all trolls, though. Nobody's that stupid.

You'd be surprised...
Although I also think they're trolls.

LOL
I tried to go to their website, and they exceeded their bandwidth limit. XD
I say they thought they had a flat fee!

Laugh all you want - but most of the math you use assumes that the earth is confined in a flat 3-d space. So in essence, all of you are flat earthers, unless of course you adjust your math to the manifold of spacetime properly. In which case I would assume you actually understand.
Then again - these flat-earthers assume the earth is in flat 2-d so that's far worse...far far worse.

Off-topic:Do you mind if I move this to Topical Discussion? Seems more fitting there. On-topic:Do I even need to say anything? You surely know my opinion. Ignoring scientific facts is just absurd.

Ryan... I thought flat was defined as something which would look like 2-d in a 3-d space? Was I wrong?

Flat is not curved. By geometric definition, flat space is any situation in which euclidean geometry holds.

Actually asher I'm getting my degree in mathematics and civil engineering so I just finished a course on general relativity which is in essence manifold theory. We learn more about curved space/space-time than flat space/space-time because with the exception of the grand scheme of the entire universe, most of the space/space-time we encounter is not flat.

let me get out my book of personally written quotes:
"Is it better to be arrogant and insist others are wrong, or carefree while insisting you are right?"
and
"Whether or not Dragons exist in our reality is controversial. It is whether or not they exist in the realities of others we could never argue."
- Jesse Knight

Ah heres another good one of mine
"Where scientolgy fails to compare to other religions, it strives harder to prove my point."
Edit: Another really good one.
"If you say it, they will hear you. If you believe it, you will hear you."
Superedit:
Ryan, i've gotta bs some of my 4th dimensional and space time theories with you sometime, sounds like itd be fun.

Shoot me a PM and I can tell you how far off you are from reality - be happy to discuss theory with you.
