If you really think this could happen with an earth spinning and going around a sun that is also moving around a galaxy, well, you aren’t thinking, you are regurgitating what you have been told to think.

The planet is (said to be) enormous. You think an ice skater would be able to detect the bulge?

Even in a flat world (which it could be) if we purposefully created a bulging ice rink on the flat earth mimicking the globe model it would be enormous and undetectable to the ice skater

The planet is said to curve 8 inches per mile. If there was the slightest bulge it would be very noticeable because it would be cracked and not flat and smooth. You are using fallacy to protect your core belief.

Oh man. You sent me a 100min video. Ive seen some of these before. This will be a bookmark but id rather discuss individual slides or ideas if you are willing

I know, sorry i should have warned you to save it for a rainy day! It is long, but it is so thorough that it will at minimum be thought-provoking!

No YouTube video would ever convince me, but it gave me leads to verify and test for myself.

You think ice cracks if it bulges 8 inches over a mile?

I have round ice cubes in my freezer now

Why do you think it has to crack? Ever been to a bar in new york? They love those stupid crystal clear ice cubes.

I dont know what fallacy you refer to. Will watch the video soon.

Hmm, good point, I have seen those round ice balls too.. I’m in a tropical part of the world so I’m not all that familiar with places where things freeze outside of the freezer. I guess I just can’t imagine a big body of frozen water being anything but flat! I have done a bit of ice skating though, at rinks, so I would say they are in my mind too.
