Episode description

people since the get-go figured something out and as time progressed we figured out that even though a lot of us evolved for the betterment of the planet a lot of us went backward and then got us to a point in time wherein we started to doubt basic concepts. I fail to understand that certain normal concepts that are accepted throughout the globe and that science has progressed with and the evidence of which is backed by proof while video and experimental evidence is prevalent for the same dictating that there is no room for speculation of it being anything other way than what is just general knowledge at this point. we still continue to have this debate.

Consider the following as briefing points: 

The essence of the argument is mute considering there are a few people within the belief system about the earth being flat who state that it's just the earth that is flat and the rest of the planets in our solar system are all round, that's plainly absurd.

The rotation of these celestial bodies makes things spherical, the centrifugal forces at play draw in all the components into its gravitational fields and draws it closer to the proverbial surface that's grade 8 science.

The lunar eclipse cannot be explained if the earth is flat, considering the shadow of the earth is on the moon and if the earth was flat you should get a band or something instead of a shadow that shows various types of moons in the night sky with due respect to the positions of the earth, every angle from the sphere gives us spherical shadows whereas a disc only could give a spherical shadow if the light from the sun was in front of it.

Stay curious but don't be an idiot, Stay safe..Stay you.
