Are you familiar the Bible? With recorded human genealogy starting with Adam? Methuselah is recorded to have lived to 969 years old.

RECORDED. (Yes, the Bible recorded and documented actual history.)

And by the way -- even the FOSSIL RECORD PROVES all life was much larger at one time (and "that one time" was...pre-Flood)

Look, if you're a Pagan, Atheist -- or just ignorant about Scriptural history and documentation, I get it...

But just don't depend on the Prussian Groomer Education for your truth.

Please leave us sane Christians out of this. You flat earthers are insane and we don’t want to be associated with your ramblings. You are perverting scripture and that may be the worst part. How can anyone who have been to a beach, flown an airplane, watched a sunset, followed the suns arc across the sky and how it moves with the seasons. How the tides are affected by the the moon. You have to believe a conspiracy by every astronomer, scientist, every space agency in the world. You. Are. Insane. Please. Leave. Me. Out. Of. It!!!!
I don't think this is fair to Liberator. He is the intended product of religion... unquestioning belief and devotion. He is kept ignorant and in line. It is you who has strayed and perverted scripture, and thankfully so.

So hell is now “Sheol” aka shell oil which clearly has “pipelines” to the surface to be extracted.

Oil isn’t dead dinosaurs! Oil is dead people from hell!

We are literally driving on hellfire!!! Oh my gods!

YOU can keep on denying Scripture and pretending God's OWN Word is a lie.

That's on you.

I am 56 years old. I have been “churched” since I was a kid. Never have I ever heard anyone teach flat earth. I went to a very conservative Baptist church that had a private school….. they didn’t teach flat earth. They taught actual science. This flat earth thing is a new perversion, another angle for heretics. It is Jim Jones crazy and I hate that Christians are being painted with the broad brush.

If it makes you feel better I don’t think anyone thinks that general Christians believe in the flat earth theory

I went to Catholic school and even they told us that the Old Testament is not meant to be taken literally. From what I remember, the gospel was supposedly the word of god where the Old Testament was just parables and stories that were meant to teach lessons

Oh I know, the church adapted to globe earth quite a while back.

At least the flat-earthers are trying to rationalize their belief. I know a lot of conservative christians and a lot of their belief system is pure faith with no rationalization even attempted.

If I talk to anyone that believes in a flat earth the conversation will end as soon as the nonsense comes out of their mouth. Life's too short to waste it talking to lunatics.

That may actually be true.

A couple o my best Christian friends cannot extract themselves from The World's hardened Pagan dogmas. I get it. It is embedded.

Some do not even want to entertain the notion of Flat Earth and His Creation (NO "Outer Space either) -- even though Scripture backs it all up 100%.

If it helps edify the truth of the matter, MANY Christians are indeed snapping out of the Pagan Dogma that IS "Globe Earth", "Space", Evolution, "Stone Age Man"-pre-Adamic Man, 4.3 billion year old Olde Earth theory AND...The Big Bang.

I'm sure our other "Christian" friend believes ALL of that (which is REALLY "insane".)

The Bible Believer simply can NOT keep on believing any of this world's Pagan pseudo-science dogma OVER that of Scriptural truth. THAT is the real "Heresy".

I find it very entertaining and insightful and educational (though obviously not in the way they intend).

So what was his argument about those things? Curious of what their reasoning is.

Not saying I believe in flat earth but…. the US government is telling you the earth is round. That is a point for the flat earth believer.

You keep saying that but you don't explain why it's not appropriate.

Do you believe in a literal heaven? Flat earth is more plausible than that.
