2, or only believe in god if there is tangible proof?

3, if need tangible proof then why believe our planet is round without tangible proof nor seeing it round?

seems like a big hypocrit? big hippo-crit?

many people believe the world is round, like a round ball without "i need tangible proof" those atheists are bad hypocrites saying that about god.
most people don't "wait for an eclipse" to check if shadow is round... and if cloudy, wait until i "see with my own eyes." can't see the whole earth shadow but believe.
those hypocrites say we need tangible proof for a nonphysical god. hypocrisy!

@Subglacial so you think people THINK all that before believing the earth is a ball?
even if proof might exist people are not really skeptical just hypocrit for god they say skeptic.
een your idea that is not "tangible" proof anyway because "we can't see the whole shadow". a curve on the moon might be elipse.
people who accuse christians of hypocracy should realize the real hypocrits are those not really skeptics... about the shape of the earth.

What the hell, sunny, get your head out your ass as those are unlinked dichotomies!

Next you'll be stating that if you like soda, but don't like biscuits, and don't know the 37th digit of pi, then you're not allowed into Mexico!

Faith and "proof" do not go hand in hand. Your doctor gives you medicine on good faith it will work. It could kill you, or give you a side effect that destroys your quality of life. But there is rarely proof he did it deliberately and was out to get you.

Likewise, the flat earth bullshit is just that - the Hebrew does not say what the English translation is alleged to be saying. All these fuckwits taking their flat earth views from a bible are wrong. They are interpreting the English as they want, not the Hebrew as it will prove them wrong.

You only need to get a cheap telescope and look at any planet in the sky, to see how a round planet functions. Nowhere will you find a "flat" one.

Also, you never need prove anything to an "atheist" any more than you need to prove ownership to a thief. Both are the same, they are not interested in your view, only what they can get away with in theirs.

Not at all:

Behold, tangible proof.

Beyond that, we have proof of the roundness of the Earth directly observable by the human eye without needing NASA:

[strateguy632]

who said those were reliable or true pictures. plenty of fiction films have "views from space", you think they actualy flew up to film? just
blind faith.

[strateguy632]

somehow someone drew a portrait does that picture prove god? need to trust reliable pictures.
www.gettyimages.com/.../538211484

[strateguy632]

is this picture "tangible proof" that god is real?

[NamerOfStars]

Oh, for fuck's sake... STOP. JUST STOP. YOU ARE MAKING ALL OF US LOOK LIKE IDIOTS.

The entire point of my using the second picture and saying "without needing NASA" is that it is NOT a matter of "blind faith", because YOU CAN SEE THE EARTH'S SHADOW ON THE MOON YOURSELF. WITH YOUR OWN EYES. Stop assuming logic is the enemy of God and LOOK AT THE MOON.

[strateguy632]

again you Are TRUSTING the picture and its caption in blind faith.
now ancient people noticed that lunar eclipse shadow was curved so that meant earth must be a "round plate" and no conflict with flat plate. a shadow is not 3d.

[Subglacial]

@strateguy632 If the Earth was a flat, circular plate, its shadow would only be circular if the Sun was directly beneath it and the Moon directly above. (Or vice versa, but you wouldn't be able to see it, obviously.) At any other angle, the shadow would be an ellipse. The only shape that casts a circular shadow from any angle is a sphere, so there are only two possibilities: either lunar eclipses are not caused by the Earth's shadow, or the Earth is a sphere (oid).

[Subglacial]

In response to your update: yes, lunar eclipses happen because of an alignment between the Sun, Earth, and Moon, but the Earth could be tilted at any angle relative to this alignment.

Take a dinner plate, hold it flat above the floor under a bright ceiling light. The shadow is a circle, right? Now tilt the plate towards you. The shadow is no longer a perfect circle.

[collie22]

I believe in God and Jesus and the bible.

[Dargil]

I believe in G0d, The Creator, out of Faith, but tangible proof, in G0d's undeniable Creation, is all around us.

[strateguy632]

undeniable? but people deny. the land is tangible but how can you be certain god created? that part is missing?

[Dargil]

Creation is the proof. Faith is the vehicle.

[FunkyMonkee]

I've seen pictures and video of the round Earth and every other plant is also round. So far, no flat planets have ever been found.
I have yet to see ANY proof of any kind of a god. If there IS a god, it's done a REALLY shitty job!!
