I recently discovered a guy I went to HS with is a legit flat earth guy
Apparently the movement is religious based
I can't believe this guy actually bought into it. He didn't seem to be that stupid when I knew him.

There is no such thing. They are people who’ve latched onto a joke and never ever let up. There are no people who legitimately believe the earth is flat, they just want to get a rise out of you by claiming something they know is outrageous.

I always figured it was just a big troll.

Nope, I choose not to associate with 'tards

Well I'm not friends with the guy anymore
Can't say I hate the guy or anything but I choose not to hang out with him since he's obviously crazy now

Some tin foil hat guy friended me on facebook and I accepted just for the daily laughs. He posted this a few minutes ago

It's religious based and they also think satellites are fake.

It’s been a troll for years. It’s just gone mainstream.

I could see it starting out as a troll but there are some idiots that actually latched onto it

I have an uncle that is a flat earther. There's some crazy on that side of the family though.

I almost fell off once. Harrowing experience.

Yes. My bosses brother. He believes there's a dome over the flat earth, space doesn't even exist (the sun, moon, and stars are all within the dome and much smaller than we are led to believe), the Antarctic ice wall, all that shite.
Yup, they tie it all back to Spanish Inquisition and believe the Jesuits are controlling everything including the education system to trick us.
He points a lot of it back to the Old Testament, fallen angels and the nephilim, etc. He believes there are also ancient petrified giants that the Jesuits are trying to (and apparently are very slowly succeeding at). He also believes that certain minerals and jewels come from these petrified giants bc supposedly there's some Old Testament verse or something talking about giants with minerals in their veins or some shite. Meaning he believes that a vein of gold is the literal vein of a petrified giant.
ETA:
Don't get me, I love a good weird conspiracy theory, but this shite is ridiculous even to me. When you start talking about "Space is fake" I'm gonna have to call BS, because alien conspiracies are my bread and butter.

I know a hollow earth dude irl 
Posted on 9/14/18 at 8:40 pm to Powerman
Yes. I know one.
Not for this guy. He's very far removed from any religion, other than maybe some new agey self worship.

I like to make people think I’m a flat earth believer

You were right on until you said space and the moon in particular, were anything other than a giant light show produced by the u.s and russia.

Usually it doesn't stop there. What else does he believe?
