Thanks thats very interesting to learn

Ok, thanks for clearing that up, appreciate your time

Hi, thanks for your response, that clears up most of it for me. But then what about the idea that a catastrophic event wiped out the dinosaurs? Doesnt the fact that we have lineage tracing back suggest that there wasnt a catastrophic event?

Hello, I have a question about evolution regarding humans, dinosaurs, and birds. First of all please excuse my ignorance, I thought id come to a forum to get a more interactive answer to this. I fully believe in evolution and am an atheist, but something I cant get my head around is tracing life back to dinosaurs. For example, evolutionary biologists figured out that all birds trace back to dinosaurs, and are in fact dinosaurs. But arent we related to birds and all other species? And therefore should also be related to dinosaurs? But also I remember hearing for a long time that dinosaurs became extinct. Many believing it was an asteroid that wiped out life on earth.. So are humans and all other life descendents of dinosaurs? Im confused

Interesting, I know for a fact they will claim once again its atmospheric distortion, but i'll look into that one it sounds interesting. One of my arguments, which I actually thought of myself is regarding polaris and the southern cross. Since timelapses show stars rotating around polaris, and then in the southern hemisphere they rotate around the southern cross...how can that fit into the concept of a flat earth with a dome over it? At the hemisphere you would have a very odd looking star rotation, it blows their model to pieces, im amazed more people dont use it. No answer whatsoever, off any flat earther yet, it cannot work on a flat plane, and they know that. Which leads me to believe they are in serious denial, or are being disingenuous

Thankyou, sorry to sound uneducated but some of this stuff is above my knowledge. So I will have to take a little time to try to understand this, but I get the general idea 👍 Actually they did explain that yesterday, they claimed that globe believers are obsessed with sea level observations because they "know" atmospheric blurring will occur. They claimed that they (flat earthers) prefer to use altitude to view horizons because it removes the atmospheric distortion. All of this I have not prepared for, I did however say that they must specify how high they are and how far away the target object is before they even dream of giving people a conclusion

I think what they are talking about is, say you are at sea level and the sun appears high in the sky.. you go up in a helicopter or go to the top of a mountain, the sun looks lower now. Thats what they were getting at, again not sure if this is even true, but the claim is that it shouldnt change perspective at all because its so far away. Yes I have never had a reasonable conversation with a flat earther, they are completely divorced from reality

I agree, and even if I answered it perfectly it would be unlikely to convince them. However it has intrigued me because its a good question really, nothing wrong with that. Well I say question, it was more of an assertion (as always 😄)

Hi, I am new to this so please bare with me. I am currently debating a flat earther, and I am unsure how to answer this question accurately. The claim is that the sun cannot be 93,000,000 miles away, as when you view it from a high altitude, the suns arc changes too much. The conclusion is that this must mean the sun is much closer, otherwise its arc wouldnt appear to change to us. I put this down to perspective and explained that if it were 93 million light years away our position would effect our perspective. (I might be wrong there) But I would also like to know if or why this is the case, I havent observed this or been able to. Thanks if anyone can help?
