"The facts are simple," says Charles K. Johnson, president of the International Flat Earth Research Society. "The earth is flat... Wherever you find people with a great reservoir of common sense... they don't believe idiotic things such as the earth spinning around the sun. Reasonable, intelligent people have always recognized that the earth is flat...
It's the Church of England that's taught that the world is a ball... George Washington, on the other hand, was a flat-earther. He broke with England to get away from those superstitions... Uncle Joe (Stalin), Churchill, and Roosevelt laid the master plan to bring in the New Age under the United Nations. The world ruling power was to be right here in this country.
After the war, the world would be declared flat and Roosevelt would be elected first president of the world. When the UN Charter was drafted in San Francisco, they took the flat-earth map as their symbol.

So a picture of the earth means taht you believe in a flat earth? Could it possibly mean that pictures are two dimensional? There is a picture of all of the presidents in my encyclopaedia, does their flat pages mean that the makers of the books believed that all of the American presidents were flat?
I really cannot comprehend how people these days can believe crap like this. I can bring myself to accept that some think there is a god. Surely, since there is no evidence, positive or negative, it seems like a reasonable conclusion to some. But to believe that the earth is flat is just so far gone beyond ridiculous that I think these people must be kidding.
And yet Roosevelt was not elected first president of the world, and nobody declared the world to be flat. So this prophecy went the way of all prophecies, i.e. right into the trash can. Why should we believe anything else you say?
How can people possibly believe that the earth is flat, given that we have seen the entire earth and it is round? That's like asserting that the sky is yellow, despite being able to look up and disciver that it is blue. Or maybe the sky in Charles's world is yellow.

If it comes from 1980, it´s understandable it´s a looney, not a troll. Don´t bother to comment. The core of the flat earth society was dissolved in 1968 when the first photographs from the satellites came and showed that the Earth was flat. He´s just joking.

I don't know, I might get attached to that idea... if you take a picture of the earth with australia in the middle, it makes most of the other countries disappear, which means we'd have no more dubya :-P
Em - you can do that. Download Google Earth, which is fucking awesome anyway, but yes, you can get that screen shot of Australia.

The following people would like a word with you, Chuck...:

...oh, and speaking of Chucks, Brig. Gen. Charles 'Chuck' Yeager USAF (Ret.) would most probably punch your lights out. Even the character 'Chuck' - from the anime series "Panty & Stocking (with Garterbelt)" - has far more intelligence and common sense than you .
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
