I'm no religious man but where does the Bible say the world is flat??
"All men dream: but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dream with open eyes, to make it possible."
- T.E. Lawrence
That would be due to the trans-dimensional rift all along the edges of the flat Earth.
As soon as you touch that rift, it instantly and multidimensionally "teleports" you back to the other end so that it would look like you went "around", but actually, you just got reset back to the beginning like a super-mario level.
This mechanic works in much the same way as Quantum Jump, and is the future of travel. One day we will all be able to jump in quantum leaps within the yield of the nuclear field of effect, instantaneously.
Blue pain or red pain?
Blue pain would be caused by too much inward travel on the quantum jump planes. Red is caused by outwards jumping.
- Hell, at least I tried!
Answered that already
The bible doesn't specifically state that the Earth is flat per se - but if you interpret some of it's passages literally it could be seen to imply that.
As I said ... the bible was written by people whose concept of the world would have been far smaller than hours - knowledge of concepts that we now take for granted would be completely alien to them, so the original texts would've used terms that fitted into their picture of things. And once again, the numerous translations that have taken place over the past 6 centuries or so, are pretty sure to have warped the meaning.
If you are ever able, take a Bible printed in the 60's and a more recent copy and put them next to each other - the differences in text are amazing. They don't change the meaning as such, but if you consider how the usage of language changes with time, who knows how the interpretation changes.
Thank you everyone; once again we managed to acquire a reasonable amount of data from an assortment of minds. Not all of it useful, but at least much of it turned out to be somewhat humorous (the data, not the minds).
Some of you will receive a nondescript but instantly recognizable piece of parchment in your post repositories sometime during the Yuletide, 2019.
Shadowfox, you really can't see the curvature of the earth. You can't see far enough over land or sea to notice a curvature. You'll see the same "curve" if the earth was flat because you can only see a constant distance in every direction. This will take roughly a whole chapter in a book to fully explain but basically comes down to how peripheral light is fucused through a lens. If you want to see proof of this look through a wide angle lens. I've seen many photos showing straight buildings that look like they are falling over.
Botton line it's just an apparent curvature, or illusion. Even this isn't so apparant really and don't show up at all on some photos.
It was actually common knowledge in Babylon (Iraq) at the time that the earth is round. It's a misconception Columbus set sail thinking the earth was flat. Educated people in the 15th century knew it's round but thought they would fall off its "edge" not knowing gravity pulled towards its center.
And still don't...
Yes it is I. Who might you be my dear fellow?
This Juice guy is starting to worry me. What sort of social experiment are we partaking in and for what type of organisation?
I wish the earth was flat coz then i'm sure we'd find a way see the pyramids if we look one way and then the Eiffel tower a different direction as well as the statue of liberty...:P
