The Earth is more flat than it is spherical.

Thank you for yet another chance to argue for what is perhaps the biggest deception on the plane, ever. When I first heard of the flat earth conspiracy, I was quick to dismiss it, like we were trained to do. Then, after being bugged by a few like-minded friends, set out to debunk the theory. Thinking it would take all of a few hours of research, I came across about a dozen proofs of a spherical earth, and 3-4 times as many proofs of a flat earth on the first day. Fast forward almost a year later, and I've since debunked all 10-12 proofs of a spherical earth, which I'm sure you will bring up, and am 100% sure the earth is flat. Once I understood exactly how things work in the flat earth model, it was impossible to debunk it. Understand however that this research is currently very new considering the equipment, (although we can go off of Dr. Samuel Rowbotham from the late 1800's, and a few others who might come up in this debate) very underfunded, (you will never get a government grant to disprove the government) and filled with disinformation (paid, and unpaid government shills), so not everything is completely agreed upon, or known, but it is certain that the earth is not a ball spinning, wobbling, and flying through space at ridiculous speeds. I'm going to assume that since you are a globe-head, that you have done little to no research into the flat earth theory, because very few people who have heard this case, and fully understand it, (and can think critically) end up remaining opposed to it. Most of these people can't debate it properly (anyone on DDO anyway, from what I've seen), but I am not one of those people. In essence, this is your chance to be enlightened, should you or anyone else reading this remain open minded and unbiased until the end, and most importantly, entertain the idea that you were brainwashed from birth, and try to forget everything we know about the universe that has been shoveled to you from any mainstream accounts. I have debated this subject a few dozen times, and I hope you can offer some new proof that I may have overlooked, some empirical data would be welcome, but it is highly doubtful. These proofs, which I have thoroughly refuted in my short time here in DDO, are simply misunderstood phenomenon, or can happen in either a globe or flat plane. Remember, I was not too long ago on your side of the platform, to a few more knowledgeable opponents than I. It is for this reason, and redundancy of course, that I ask my opponent to first either review one documentary on YouTube explaining the theory, or review some of my past debates. I'll get you some information together at the conclusion of my opening statement. I ask that theoretical abstract theoretical equations be left out of this debate, because the math might in the end add up, it in no way reflects reality. Gravity is a lie concocted to make the globe work, just like the spinning, the distance to the sun and moon, and many other "facts" that nobody has went back to recheck since they were implemented into the public education system. Nothing peeves a flat earther more than the overuse of the excuses like big G. It is only a theory. We have no empirical data that Gravity even exists, but it is implemented as a catch-all excuse for things that the heliocentric model can't explain. Genius lie really, and if it is told enough times, the lie becomes a fact. I ask that round two be used only for evidence of your side, start debunking in the 3rd round. With that I would like to close with some relative quotes to ponder on, and a bit of basic research links on the subject. This most beautiful system of the sun, planets and comets, could only proceed from the counsel and dominion of an intelligent and powerful Being. Isaac Newton "It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it." Aristotle Therefore I would not have it unknown to Your Holiness, the the only thing which induced me to look for another way of reckoning the movements of the heavenly bodies was that I knew that mathematicians by no means agree in their investigation thereof. Nicolaus Copernicus "Today"s scientists have substituted mathematics for experiments, and they wander off through equation after equation, and eventually build a structure which has no relation to reality." Nikola Tesla "It may be boldly asked where can the man be found, possessing the extraordinary gifts of Newton, who could suffer himself to be deluded by such a hocus-pocus, if he had not in the first instance willfully deceived himself; Only those who know the strength of self-deception, and the extent to which it sometimes trenches on dishonesty, are in a condition to explain the conduct of Newton and of Newton"s school. To support his unnatural theory Newton heaps fiction upon fiction, seeking to dazzle where he cannot convince. In whatever way or manner may have occurred this business, I must still say that I curse this modern history theory of Cosmology, and hope that perchance there may appear, in due time, some young scientists of genius, who will pick up courage enough to upset this universally disseminated delirium of lunatics." "Someday someone will write a pathology of experimental physics and bring to light all those swindles which subvert our reason, beguile our judgement and, what is worse, stand in the way of any practical progress. The phenomena must be freed once and for all from their grim torture chamber of empiricism, mechanism, and dogmatism; they must be brought before the jury of man"s common sense. " Johann W. v. Goethe George Bernard Shaw in his opening of a play called "Saint Joan" Our credulity, though enormous, is not boundless; and our stock of it is quite used up by our mediums, clairvoyants, hand readers, slate writers, Christian Scientists, psycho-analysts, electronic vibration diviners, therapeutists of all schools registered and unregistered, astrologers, astronomers who tell us that the sun is nearly a hundred million miles away and the Betelgeuse is ten times as big as the whole universe, physicists who balance Betelgeuse by describing the incredible smallness of the atom, and a host of other marvel mongers whose credulity would have dissolved the Middle Ages in a roar of sceptical merriment. In the Middle Ages people believed that the earth was flat, for which they had at least the evidence of their senses: we believe it to be round, not because as many as one per cent of us could give the physical reasons for so quaint a belief, but because modern science has convinced us that nothing that is obvious is true, and that everything that is magical, improbable, extraordinary, gigantic, microscopic, heartless, or outrageous is scientific.
