whimslcott replied to your post: āthis girl I knew in high school outed herself as a flat earther and...ā:
sheās christian + claims that genesis supports the earth being flat. let me get the exact quote she used
āAnd God said, "Let there be a dome in the midst of the waters, and let it separate the waters from the waters."
So God made the dome and separated the waters that were under the dome from the waters that were above the dome. And it was so.ā
she gave. no explanation as to how exactly this proved the earth was flat. Iām assuming sheās envisioning theĀ ādomeā to be a literal dome shape (the atmosphere) upon a circular flat surface (earth).
also, if the earth were not flat, according to her, planes would have to tilt their noses down during taxi so they donātĀ āleave the atmosphereā
itās also worth noting that she presented all of this in a tone of āidk guys just the more info I get the more it makes sense :/ respect by beliefs and Iāll respect yoursā
