No gravity?
How does buoyancy make things fall to the ground?
Does this mean BDC scopes are a lie?

Assuming gravity doesn't exist and it were only buoyancy responsible for "holding" things down, how does water permeate rock? Rocks are more dense than water, lake beds are covered with them. If there were no gravitational force pulling the water down, water would settle on top the rocks like oil does on top of water. That would essentially make aquifers impossible to exist. But I know my well goes down a couple hundred feet and I can pump water from it.
Something I have to know.
What magical force is keeping anyone from taking a peek at the edge of Flat Spining Earth (henceforth known as FSE)(not to be known as Fallacious Scientific Edicts) or (Flatulence Supersedes Evidence) or (Fatchick's Sexual Experience)

Ohh and I almost forgot. Buoyancy and its resulting force is literally defined by GRAVITY. You don't have buoyancy without gravity.
Face it Guys Newton was wrong, Copernicus was wrong and Einstein was wrong. Jakelly has had profound LSD induced revelations and has been enlightened. Now if he can only tell me why there is always one missing sock after the laundry is complete?
It is possible that he played Black Sabbath backwards and saw God too. Just like Chong.

You beat me to the punch, and got in to quick for me. But on a side note, if buoyancy was the only thing keeping things down the Vomit Comet wouldn't exist. The air in the cabin doesn't change as they are taking their parabolic flight paths. The only thing that does is the aircraft acceleration relative to... wait for it, gravity. That's how it's possible to achieve weightlessness and in the other direction, the feeling like you weigh 10 times the force of gravity.You said more eloquently what I said.
Actually, you’re not buoyant in the Vomit Comit. You, the plane, and the air inside the plane are all falling because of...well, you know...gravity. ?. Everything is just falling at the same rate. If the plane fell slower than you, you’d hit the floor. If the plane fell faster than you, you’d hit the ceiling. As it is, the pilot knows just the path to follow, the porabola, so that everything falls at just the right rate. But yes, the vomit comit works because of gravity.
Poe’s Law states that satire mocking extreme views is often indistinguishable from those extreme views. This thread is a perfect example. One of the following must be true, but both are difficult to believe:
1 - You have all been trolled by a brilliant act of satire
2 - There are sincere flat earthers in the 21st century
I want it to be number #1, but I fear it is #2...

So where would one start the Chemtrails on the spinning disc? Asking for the maximum weather control effect.
The problem is that I've seen enough on Youtube to be convinced that it is Number 2 which is why I started this thread. I like trolling as much as the next guy, but there are people who genuinely believe this stuff.
We are on the same page. I was trying to say the same thing you did, you just said it better. Buoyancy doesn't explain the vomit comet, gravity does. When you say that everything is falling at the same rate, that rate would be the acceleration rate due to gravity. Which at sea level, for all things regardless of density, is 9.8 m/s^2 or 32.2 ft/sec^2.
God doesn't like when you use religion to further a stupid argument . You made Jesus cry you piece a ..........
How do I know ? God told me .
There is up and there is down. They are designed by the same creator as time and matter, darkness and light, and they are part of the framework of our physical reality. There is no magical force of a large object attracting a small one due to it’s mass. Time marches on and what goes up must come down. The “force” isn’t gravitational pull. What “force” drags time (or “space time”) along? What “force” moves the light?
These aren’t the logical starting points to determining if the earth is flat anyhow. The logical and scientific approach is to test the supposition with experimentation, observe, and conclude what can be deduced. Are there experiments that can be done to test the earth for curvature? Yes. Have they been conducted? Yes. Did they yield data points by which a conclusion can be reached? Yes. Can I replicate the experiments and reproduce the results for myself? Yes. There were several experiments referenced in this thread that can be replicated. Try it. Then go where the evidences lead. Test further and draw further conclusions.

So Jake, one question; How does the flat earth explain the fact that I can fly east, continue to fly east, and end up back where I started? That is impossible on a flat surface. It's only possible on a sphere. On that note, how do satellites stay in orbit?
Another question; Are all the planets flat also? The moon?
I'm not razzing you, I've never studied flat earth theory, and I'm genuinely curious how you explain things, that we know is impossible.

The last flat-earther I heard, claimed satellites were not in orbit, they were basically stuck on the ceiling.
Of course, if the earth were flat, you wouldn't need satellites.
For flat earth science to work, you have to support huge, I mean really really huge, conspiracy theories.
Every time a conspiracy theory starts to almost sound plausible, I remind myself that the government is too incompetent to pull it off. And that's just the small ones.
You should look into "Operation Fishbowl"
There are a few YouTube videos on it. Operations Dominic and Fishbowl. Dominic = God....hummmm. Fishbowl of God.
The worst part of the argument is that somehow all of the governments around the world are in on this huge conspiracy but put them all together and the UN is where they get a lot of data from. Many flat earthers use the UN map as their model of the world. I don't understand how they all can be plotting against your theory but collectively they equal your theory. That makes no sense to me what so ever.
It's pretty much certain that any modern "flat earth" person just likes winding people up and watching their heads spin.
I seriously doubt any of them seriously believe their "flat earth" stuff, but it's way too much fun getting attention over it & getting people arguing with you.

Got to be something.
Both my yard and wallet are flat.

Hey man, if you’re going to cop to thinking the earth is flat in the bear pit of snipershide, you had better have thick skin and deep convictions. I don’t take offense.
Circumnavigation east and west has been done, there are, however, some interesting accounts by very capable mariners of their circumnavigation of Antarctica. Circumnavigation north and south is a very different story.
Pertaining to your other questions, I have my thoughts, but my recommendation would be do your own research. There are a lot of people asking these questions and seeking the answers.
I don't think your wallet was flat before you bought more ammo, right?
I think this flat earth thing is getting out out of controll.
Started back in high school with some of my girlfriends.
Then not long ago a tire on my truck.
Keeps up at this pace everything will be flat soon.

Oh, I'm in no way going to believe the Earth is flat. If it were flat, every question I asked about, would defy physics and mathematics.
I just don't understand how you can circumnavigate a flat surface. I really want to know. The word circumnavigate has the root word circum, or "to go around" in it.
To recap ;
The Earth is flat .
Chemtrails are real .
The moon landing was faked .
Elvis is alive .
Trump is a Russian agent .
Guam will tip over if we build mor shit there .
White Christians are terrorist .
Trannies are our real national heroes.
Kamala Harris goes balls n all . She really does .
All of Hollywood moved to Canada because of Trump .
The Navy doesn't know how to not crash a ship .
The easiest way to get a book deal is to become a SEAL .
Luke and Laura are brother and sister and so are their mom and dad .
Creeky is the Pope .
1J is the proprietor of Maggies .
This is actually a shooting forum . Keep that a secret .
And last but not least . There is no more ammo cause Army Jerry bought it all .
"Nuke Em !!!"

What if something drastic happened like your beer going flat?
What then, now it's getting real huh.

Yea I would say so. It turns out that due to the earths relative position to the sun, the poles tend to be REALLY cold in their respective winters. As a result there tends to be just a little bit of ice that has collected at the north and south pole. As a result, it is extremely difficult to sail a ship from north to south as they can not pass. Now with regard to aviation there is nothing stopping aircraft from doing it. There is an entire Air Force wing that supports missions to Antarctica. They fly C-130's and C-17's there in the summer.
