minus-squarenexguy@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up10·8 months agoJust ask a person who thinks the earth is flat to scientifically prove it. They can’t. A person can use a lake and a pair of binoculars to calculate the circumference of the spherical earth.
minus-squarevinnymac@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3arrow-down1·8 months agoReminds me of Galileo being prosecuted for defending his belief that the planets revolved around the sun (heliocentrism). The earth isn’t flat, but turns out the universe is. One would hope that would be enough for them.
