What if no religions are correct, but there still is a God?

@Frank Apisa,
The mark of a madman is that they put stock in the word of people wearing funny outfits.

Whether priests...

Doctors...

Politicians...

Or scientists...

A sane person makes their own decisions, right or wrong, and doesn't care about what people in funny outfits say.

Yes, I'm a Christian, but I regard my priest as no different than his congregation. Especially if he says something dumb, like that we need to flatten the curve. You're a priest for ****'s sake, you shouldn't be worshiping at the altar of Fauci.

Ultimately, we all look like the same naked. So this idea of logic based on the positions of "authorities" in nice outfits means you are under a delusion.

@Frank Apisa,
Really clever.

I doesn't address anything I said, but I suppose calling me a "nut" "case" makes you feel like you've shut me down.

Meanwhile, my argument still stands. Why do you trust those nice young men in their clean white coats?

Why do you think their opinion is any more valid than basic observations?

Show me where the horizon curves. Show me where the sea arches.

Bulma...I want very much for you to be pulling our legs here with this "flat Earth" stuff. Anyone now alive who actually thinks the Earth is flat...has problems.

Although I bust your balls often...I honestly hope you do not have those kinds of problems.

@bulmabriefs144,
I think you just post crap for the crap of it. This planet is toooo big for your wide vision to catch.

Where you can catch the curve is to go deep - 14 miles straight ahead. If you'd set sail on a boat straight out, your boat will disappear before your sail and mast would, There's the curve, bucky.

Now if we could only get you on that sailboat.

And not only that: if you have the distance out and the height of the boat, you'd be able to trig out the diameter of the ol' planet!! That, bucky is science. You high school education was much neglected.

Get over it.

"What if no religions are correct, but there still is a God?"

A better question is: What if all religions are correct, but there still is no God.

Then you have a mystery. And you pique the interest of young people to look inside themselves instead of projecting their ego onto an image of God.

@glitterbag,
You seen one naked person, you've seen them all.

I read books.

I also examine what I read. I don't trust it blindly like some people.

I also don't trust people who trust everything they read, and don't do their own research.

Wraps make sense for the way the daylight area of a sphere moves over the night area and vice-verse. Spread can me stretched-out IIRC.

@Theo202,
No, no, Islam canonically believes in a flat Earth (the Quran also is loaded with contradictions).

Quote:
15:19 And the earth We have spread out (like a carpet); set thereon mountains firm and immovable; and produced therein all kinds of things in due balance.


Quote:
20:53 He Who has, made for you the earth like a carpet spread out; has enabled you to go about therein by roads (and channels); and has sent down water from the sky.” With it have We produced diverse pairs of plants each separate from the others.


Quote:
43:10 (Yea, the same that) has made for you the earth (like a carpet) spread out, and has made for you roads (and channels) therein, in order that ye may find guidance (on the way)


I know you like spherical carpets
https://texturesphere.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Carpet-05.png
but that's kinda usually not how it works.

Btw, so does the Bible. But it's okay to hate on the Bible.

Quote:
12 He will raise a banner for the nations and gather the exiles of Israel; he will assemble the scattered people of Judah from the four quarters of the earth.


Quote:
22 He sits enthroned above the circle of the earth, and its people are like grasshoppers. He stretches out the heavens like a canopy, and spreads them out like a tent to live in.


A circle is not a sphere. They are describing the Earth like a tent. I gather you've not seen any spherical tents either (they actually do exist, they have to be suspended about the ground, because the ground is... yeah, flat)

Quote:
3 He unleashes his lightning beneath the whole heaven and sends it to the ends of the earth.


A spherical Earth has no ends.

Rubbish. "like a carpet" isn't part of the original text.

Regardless, the Muslims believe the sun sets into a pool at night.

Quote:
Until when he reached the place where the sun set, he found it going down into a black sea, and found by it a people. We said: O Zulqarnain! either give them a chastisement or do them a benefit (Quran 18:86)


And opponents of Islam (AnsweringIslam) certainly have been able to arrive to this conclusion.

I suppose that the flat Earthers also "believe" that the Sun, Moon, and other planets also are totally flat...and just happen to be facing Earth in a way that only shows their flat surface, which just happens to be circular!

Jesus H. Christ.

C'mon!

@Frank Apisa,
Why do you want to go down that rabbit hole?

They believe it because they want to think they're special, part of a select few able to see the world as it is.

It has to beat reality, which is they're a delusional attention seeking idiot with limited mental powers.

That's why they do it.

The worst thing about it is that most of these conspiracy stories all come from the same place, and it's not nice.

It's grounded in antiSemitism, there has to be someone to blame for "reality" not sinking it.

The same allegations levelled at the LGBT community today were directed towards Jewish people in the past.

Just wondering why it is evident that all the other celestial bodies that we can see are spheres...yet they still maintain that the Earth is the only pancake flat thing going.

Just wondering.

@Frank Apisa,
You really want to hear that long, convoluted, twisted, tortured reasoning?

Back in the day the Flat Earth Society was fairly benign.

You knew deep down they didn't believe it, it was more of a debating society, an exercise in rhetoric more than anything else.

Now they are some really nasty pieces of work.

@Frank Apisa,
The Earth is flat, because we have to stand on it. Or do you think blood rush is not a thing?
https://lifehacker.com/what-happens-to-your-body-if-you-hang-upside-down-for-t-1793101067
If the Earth were really a globe (rather than simply a flat disc), everyone in the wrong hemisphere would have violent blood rush. Barring intense central gravity, which isn't a thing. If it were a thing, birds would be pulled toward the ground when they tried to fly.

I have no opinion at all about the sun, moon, or other planets. It however strikes me as highly suspicious that we only ever see one side of the moon...

Hahaha, I got you to say Jesus's name! I win!

But seriously, you have no concept of how severely odd this world would be if the scientists were right, that the Earth is a globe and not simply round.

A horizon, like I've seen every night for my entire life.

The same horizon with circular motion filter and curve bend distort. This is a round horizon.

Also, you're stupid.

Obviously you actually do think the Earth is flat.

Okay...we've got room on the planet for people with that kind of problem.

Continue to exist...and be sure to contribute thoughts often.
