you can see farther when you go higher because there is no curve.. What is the problem here?
Sit in a flat hallway.
Stand in a flat hallway.
Notice you can see farther?
DISCUSSED
i just remembered someone upthread posting a yt purporting to debunk the 'horizon rises to eye level' FE evidence, and then I remembered posts from months ago by big globe saying that the horizon should only rise to eye level on a sphere and that the argument naturally debunks Flat Earth.
I had a conversation with a school teacher recently who admitted it's standard to simply 'go to videos' when asked about anomalies in outer space, such as the 70km radius + west to east motion during the solar eclipse.
EDUCATION
Also had a conversation with a 3 yr old who when told we are taught the earth is spinning around in a circle every day said 'but then it would be windy, and it's not always windy so maybe it's not true'

You have never answered tons of questions. For one: Why is it warmer at midnight in Austin, TX in July than it is at noon the same day in Johannesburg, South Africa, even though the sun is close enough to Johannesburg to be visible and not close enough to Austin to be visible?

Weak. Why was it 20 degrees where I live yesterday, and 30 degrees today? Why is there a desert in Yukon? LOL

Give me proof.
The burden of proof is on you. Nothing about the heliocentric model is observable, that's basically the whole point. I could make a sarcastic comment asking you to send something to 'outer space' unless your 'crappy job at dennys' doesn't pay you enough.
Globe earth model explains summer and winter in a way that allows winter daytime to be colder than summer nighttime. FE model is "dur hur sun gives heat and light and it is located right above the people who can see it".
So it isn't "weak" to ask how FE model explains it being warmer in darkness and by FE definition further than the heat source than the places in winter daylight.

That's not my style, though.
I asked you some really simple questions that had nothing to do with your answer.
Why the sun actually sets and why doesn't it look a lot smaller at sunset compared to midday.
Also why is there 17 hours of daylight on the 22nd of December at the bottom of Argentina and it never goes completely dark, even though fe shows the sun being the furthest possible distance from Argentina at midnight.
Everything about globe model is observable and consistent with experimentation.
Denying those observations and experiments requires you to claim that all video evidence produced is "CGI," and a large number of people in a diverse number of people over a long time span to be "in on" a massive conspiracy with nebulous or inexplicable ends. I suppose there are other categories of your out-of-hand rejection, like claiming that any camera that shows a curved earth is obviously a fisheye lens (because LOL otherwise they'd show a flat earth!), or using your own lack of ability to understand a model as evidence that it is wrong (chief amongst these seems to be the set of statements that include: the south is "downhill" from the north or that the "bottom" of the ball shouldn't "stick" to it).
I still don't get what is to be gained by hiding the world is flat. All other conspiracy theories are based on a benefit for someone. This one has no benefit. It is actually the opposite for the churches, which would have had good reason to "keep" the earth flat when people started realizing it wasn't flat.

Nope...

LOL you make extraordinary claims and the burden of proof is on us...LOL, try again buddy.
Another nope for you... You are claiming OCEANS CAN BEND. You are claiming to be SPINNING 1000 km/h EVERY DAY WHILE THERE IS NO WIND.
If a flat earth is such an "extraordinary claim" to paraphrase Carl PAGAN, why did it take 500 YEARS and THE GOVERNMENT to get it to catch on? This has been explained so many times.

A friend of mine shared on facebook a sunset on the ocean that was clearly showing the sun shrinking. It was months ago, I could try to find it but it wouldn't make any difference because you LOVE to be LIED TO.

Who here has said that besides globers like yourself? I certainly didn't. Burden of proof remains on your shoulders.

I don't know if I can continue replying to you, you are talking way more than you are listening.
Go read the depression thread for a clue. This has been explained. Outer Space = you are insignificant. Flat Earth = you are important.

Amazing the sun stays the same size all day and then shrinks in minutes.
That proves it!
Okay. Make it simpler. Why is the sun the same size at midday, 1pm, 2pm, 3pm... etc even though it is getting further away? In about 3 hours it has moved to about twice the distance away, yet stays the same size. Amazing.

Well that has nothing to do with what I asked.
While Moo doesn't, it's sad people actually believe in fe.
Just stop. You're basically saying the opposite of the entire world. Why do i need proof if you're not only too stupid but too lazy to look up the answers. You're just a troll, so I get why your doing it but at least try harder.
