An article written by Moriel Schottlender called 10 Easy ways you can tell for yourself that the Earth is not flat was originally published in 2008 by Smarter than That. A lightly edited version of the article has been republished in 2016 by Popular Science due to the recent rise in debate of whether the earth is round or flat.
This particular article describes methods of why the earth is not flat. To prove to “The Flat Earth” society that they are wrong. Going further to say that it’s ridiculous to even bother rebutting the flat earthers theories. With that said the article chooses ten different ways to prove the earth is 100% not flat to “The Flat Earth” society.
The article uses the moon, sun, and other planets to prove that the earth orbits around in outer space. The order of creation story from Genesis provides clear information that the earth was created on the first day and only on the fourth day were the sun, moon and stars created inside the firmament of the earth. Numerous verses of scripture refute the idea that the earth orbits or moves at all.
Psalm 104:5 “He set the earth on its foundations; it can never be moved.”
The article relies on great scholarly men like Aristotle and Eratosthenes long lived ideas to prove the earth is spherical and shape. While these men may have brought forth grand ideas, God is our creator and his word is the only truth.
Isaiah 29:16 “You turn things upside down, as if the potter were thought to be like the clay! Shall what is formed say to the one who formed it, “You did not make me”? Can the pot say to the potter, “You know nothing”?”
Images from space and many other photos are used in this article to prove that the earth is round, along with sixty years of space exploration according to the article. I ask that one considers the many textbooks on evolution and it’s teachings. Then know that this is not the story of creation. Then ask yourself if the world lies like the father of lies, Satan who is the God of this world to confuse us as Christians.
Jeremiah 51:16 “When he thunders, the waters in the heavens roar; he makes clouds rise from the ends of the earth. He sends lightning with the rain and brings out the wind from his storehouses.”
