For those of who've thought Funkcreep hilariously ignorant. Ask yourself if you accept evolution or the antiquity of the earth. If the answer to either is no, have a long think about the denialism and motivated reasoning displayed by Funkcreep and know that you are really no different. If your reason for denying evidence is because it jeopardises your religious beliefs. Maybe it's the latter that has the problem. Worth thinking about?

Yeah, there are a ton of fringe groups that inject all kinds of theories into all types of things, it's nothing new. For me, after viewing the video EvilAngel posted it answered a ton of questions. All of this is pretty much mind game bs going on in this thread, tons of people like to do that too.

sooooo....

icewalls holding all the water in the flat earth.....hmmmmm, climate change, & ice shelves melting, this should mean all the water on earth is melting and running off the side into space?

Your evidence to convince a religious zealot flat earther is to cite climate change? He thnks the earth is flat. What chance do you think he accepts climate change?

Exactly.

actually i think the funniest people participating on this thread are people who, after twenty pages of posts, continue to participate, angrily insulting Funkcreep and trying again and again to stop the humor train which is this thread.

.

the more they try and fail, the funnier this entire thread becomes.

.

so imo the hilarity of this thread is to be found in the posts of those who refuse to see this or cannot see this and who continue to ram their heads against the brick wall that is this topic.

.

now THAT is hilarious

I'm hoping the entire thing is a joke, because otherwise it's a special kind of stupid, even for this site.

i disagree. it is entertaining, and fun to think about things that are off the beaten track, true or otherwise. if people were only to think about topics they think they 'know' about, if we only ever discussed traditional notions, we would limit the possibility horizon of new ideas and ways of thought.

.

for me, personally, i enjoy this sort of thread topic. and once upon a time, back in the day when the ORG wasn't filled with people who desire to control what other people post on the internet, back when we actually had fun threads and a lot of laughter here, this thread would blend in.

.

it says a lot about the ORG right now that this topic has receieved the kinds of hostile, angry, personal attack and insult responses it has.

.

there are people here incapable of seeing the humor, who are also angrily, personally invested in trying to force FunkCreep to abandon his stance. and each time they spend the time to come back and attempt to 'disprove' the OP's premise, it kind of makes me giggle.

.

because THAT is a special kind of stupid, imo.

you two show up here and demand the thread be locked just because *you* don't like it? maybe instead of ruining the entire thread, you should simply resist posting here or visiting again? just a respectful suggestion

I guess some people like to laugh at the same joke, even if the joke has run it course

JoeTyler said:

see above.

No, I don't need to see anything at this point; as I've said, the "joke" just ran its course, and I'd rather have humour and (moderate) insults in a ridiculous OP thread than self-righteous, angry pseudo-intellectualization, especially since lust jumped in...

for humanity's sake...

and bwt, "asking" for a lock is not the same thing as DEMANDING it

I can ask, it's a free site...

--I felt the same way. It's like - move on for crying out loud. I guess I should've kept my mouth shut, but I couldn't believe this thread was still going.

after 15 pages, I just "ask" for and suddenly I'm the bad guy despite people who have been preachy, angry and humorless almost since the beginning of this "thread"

lovely...

take funkcreep for example, he hasn't posted a SINGLE FUNNY thing in this damn thread whatever...

I want to hear more about the UN and how it has a Flat Earth on its flag. Is there some connection I'm missing?

^ coincidence? master plan?

united nations flag:

.

.

flat earth map:

.

It's the exact same thing!

Any readers who are disappointed by the lack of humour that is apparent in this thread may instead prefer to browse through this hilarious page. I didn't know, for example, that "the force known as gravity doesn't exist".

NorthC said:

And of course on a flat earth, the equator doesn't exist either. Those poor Ecuadorians are going to have to rename their country.

It looks like on that map/the UN flag, you could draw the equator anywhere you want.

Does that make us all Ecuadorians?
