I am for once speechless (well I was, then I decided to post).

Flat Earth International Conference 2017 :covereyes - in South Carolina USA.

There are actually enough people to have a conference on this :jaw-dropp

I am all for the concept that people are not necessarily idiots, they can just be idiots on a specific idea. But this takes the biscuit. I honestly cannot believe that people really think the earth is flat. I think they are lying. They must be.

However, is this the sort of thing that makes America Great, you can say or believe anything. This is a natural corollary when you take away all the dogmas and ideologies and government meddling in how people should live their lives. I mean an Egyptian singer was recently arrested because she said drinking river Nile water can make you sick, that is clearly insane.

Or is this just another example of American decline in the face of anti-intellectual hysteria that appears to be sweeping that great nation.

Equal time for both sides of the controversy, surely.

well, if there is a controversy right now I am sure we can end the controversy easily enough by providing the evidence. Then we are post controversy. Simples.

You're a little late, but welcome to the party. These are the type of smug buffoons who consider RT their number one "news source".

ok, I don't necessarily think the USA is in decline, and even if it is it would take decades. But there is an unwelcome aroma of people become specious or willfully ignorant of science and reason and bare faced facts. (Not just in America). Trump epitomizes this, as the man himself and the people who elected him. Luckily sanity appears to prevail in some other countries like Canada and France at the moment in their recently elected leaders.

Sure. But this assumes that those who create the controversy- here, flat-earthers, elsewhere, creationists and 9-11 CTists- are doing so in good faith, are honestly asking questions in search of evidence to answer them. For the most part, they're not; the investment is in the controversy itself, and the point is to prolong it, not resolve it.

Its a conspiracy, to hide god from us.

There are as many theories as there are proponents, similar to 9/11 and Apollo hoax believers.

Agreed. And to go further, a large set of pathetic, ego fueled buffoons have replaced rational thought and the scientific method with a bunch of self serving conspiracy crapola, and replaced legitimate news sources with whatever Russian propaganda they happen to find on the internet that day.

All of the above probably. I remember once watching a video of an argument that nearly turned into a fist fight among bigfoot believers. People can get oddly passionate about the arrangement of the deckchairs on the Titanic.
 
May I ask how the attendees "arrived" at the Internation Conference 2017? Did they fly in on commercial flights? Why didn't all the Airline companies make them disappear? The last thing the NWO wants is to alert all the sheeple about the global conspiracy!!

Some tried to get there by jumping straight up and letting the earth spin beneath them, that they didn't get anywhere is proof enough that the earth isn't a spinning globe.
 
Was this a global conference? Were there satellite link-ups beaming to other parts of the world which were having night time for some mysterious reason?

I managed to watch the first 5 mins then had to switch off when he got to the point where he asks why are the scientists not answering their questions plus "and don't give me that thing about boat masts going down, is that all you have!". Obviously the scientists have no answer and so are keeping quiet. Good Grief.

They seem to universally believe that anything that comes from NASA (like pictures of the earth clearly showing it to be spherical) are fake. Most that I have read seem to believe there is some sort of conspiracy to conceal "the truth".

I have not seen anything from them that suggests that the earth was ever any shape but a flat disk.
 
Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for inviting me to be your commencement speaker. Unfortunately I flew here, and on the way I looked out the aeroplane window and realised we're all idiots.

Thank you for attending and I look forward to seeing you all at next month's Intelligent Design Symposium.

Good Night!
