Can't you just look in the street and look for wheelie bins?
Neatly on pavements = Thursday evening.
Scattered all over the place = Friday afternoon.
Following day is thus Saturday..

Hardware - a friend of mine retired early and he uses exactly this method for telling where in the week he is. Bins out on Wednesday night, back in on Thursday morning. So one more day and it's Saturday. Visiting from rrsport.co.uk

Indeed, at least god put a dome over their flat earth so he doesn’t have to listen to them
Ps, shame those idiots don’t do any kind of experiments , a guy done an awesome video by sending up a balloon , yet they still try and debunk it calling it CGI

Yes, they shout about "doing the research" but what they really mean is "watch videos on youtube by people who are trying to con me out of my money". Flat earthers appear to be a mix of fundamental US-style Christians (they seem to think that a globe earth is an affront to their God, or something), and people looking to be special ("It's all a conspiracy by NASA/the UN/the Democrats but I know the truth because I've done the research!").
It's a great example of one of the ways that the Internet is doing harm. It does a lot of good, but the spread of total junk like this and the extreme political and social stuff, is not good.Visiting from rrsport.co.uk

Indeed ref religion , think they also get caught up ref the Big Bang theory , claiming that their god created it yet no supporting evidence but even the scientific world says it doesnt know
Another hang up for them is the Antarctica treaty where they claim the ice wall is and knowone can go there , even when actual evidence of cruises or events are shown to them they dismiss it because they know better and indeed without any supporting evidence
Agreed where the internet can do such harm, ie claims of 5g causing a current pandemic through some sort of death ray , the outlandish stories seems to get bigger and bigger like Chinese whispers
Must admit when I’ve had chance to speak to a flat earther ive asked how does a seed in soil know which way is up / down, they just claim it’s pseudo science or a magnetism
See there are Plenty of flat earth debates on utube which can become very interesting, lol

I like some of the stuff produced by the Professor David Explains channel. He's proved them wrong using science and using non-scientific arguments. The flat earthers hate him.
He does a lot of good teaching science topics too.Visiting from rrsport.co.uk
