It is true that the earth is flat. Flat Earth: history of the debate, evidence and facts

We live in a world consisting of information fields, this is obvious and understandable to anyone who has ever thought about the real secrets of the universe. And, based on the latest scientific data, we can safely say that those facts that were previously considered prejudice have a real basis. One of these facts is that photography steals the soul. Of course, not all of it, but it leaves traces that are easily diagnosed with scientific instruments.

Yes? Why is this discovery not widely known?

Here we turn to the problem for which the movement for sovereign science was created, the problem that official science has been hiding real knowledge for many centuries. Scientists have long turned into a sect that functions only to create a smoke screen that allows them to manipulate people.
One of the most mysterious videos about Flat Earth:

What does this mean?
Look, what is the essence of so-called scientific knowledge? It is to imagine a person as a conditional, soulless grain of sand in the infinity of endless space, to literally hammer into his head the idea that he is a useless loner, standing in the face of emptiness. Endless proof of this is the essence of modern so-called science, which came to us from the West. Behind this veil, true knowledge is lost, and this loss is intentional.

What is it, true knowledge, and where to look for it?

I’ll answer the second part of the question first: you need to look in Russia. And to answer the first part, it is necessary to delve into history and understand when the phenomenon that today is commonly called official science began to develop in our country.

From Peter the Great, or more precisely from that agent of the West who pretended to be him. Today, all historians who have not fully joined the sect of scientists know that during Peter’s trip to Germany, a true autocrat with a great spirit, the Masons replaced their protege with a completely different person who returned to Russia. And it was this man who began to implant the so-called sciences in Russia, trying to completely knock out of people the real knowledge that still remained at that time. The process of transforming highly spiritual Personalities into rootless individualists-cosmopolitans has begun. And the tool for this transformation is science. Full, by the way, of the most obvious contradictions.

Which ones?

Wait. First you need to decide where exactly the true knowledge remains. It was at that time that the division of true science took place into the profane part, which we call science today, and real knowledge, which became the lot of the chosen ones in Europe, such chosen ones were the Freemasons, and in Rus' distant monasteries. By the way, it was for this reason that they were persecuted. Any true knowledge is based on spirituality and holy books, and pseudo-knowledge, that is, science, is based on cheap fabrications. The insidiousness of the West is that with the help of science they managed to deceive the whole world and hide true knowledge behind a special veil of science.

Here are several relationships between true knowledge and false sciences, which, by the way, were actively studied by real researchers in the last century. For example, Rene Guenon. The relationships are as follows: true astrology is false astronomy, true numerology is false mathematics, true alchemy is false chemistry, and so on.
By selecting absolutely profane parts from real knowledge, the Masons managed to create a powerful system for protecting true knowledge, which became the lot of the chosen few and an instrument for the enslavement of the world. The sect of so-called scientists are those biorobots that are used to create this very veil over true knowledge.

Still, let’s return to the contradictions that you promised to talk about.

No problem. Let's at least look at the theory that says that the Earth is a ball that revolves around the Sun. Even here, obvious contradictions are not noticed!

A recent sociological survey showed that almost 40% of the Russian population is confident in the correct biblical version of the Sun revolving around the Earth.

Doesn't the Earth revolve around the Sun?

Thank God no! And now, when Russia is experiencing a spiritual revival, even official scientists and ordinary people have finally recognized this! For example, a recent sociological survey showed that almost 40% of the Russian population is confident in the correct biblical version of the Sun revolving around the Earth. There is a positive trend every year, the percentage of those who have learned the truth is increasing!

The whole truth on VIDEO:

Maybe people just forgot their school course?

But everyone remembers arithmetic and supposedly basic physics! And this is enough to know the truth!

Imagine the situation: a plane flies from Europe to Japan 11 thousand kilometers, and arrives at its destination 10 hours later. As we all remember from school, the length of the Earth’s equator is 40 thousand kilometers. If the Earth rotated around its own axis per day, as official science says, then in an hour it would rotate 1,666 kilometers. It is so? Now think for yourself at what speed a plane must fly 10 thousand kilometers in order to fly this distance in 10 hours against the movement of the supposedly round and supposedly rotating Earth! More than 2700 kilometers per hour! At the usual speed of 1000 kilometers per hour, the plane would have flown completely in the opposite direction and would never have gotten anywhere! The same goes for the return flight: for him, the plane didn’t have to fly anywhere at all, just take off and wait, divide 10 thousand by one thousand six hundred and 6 hours!

What about pictures of the Earth from space?

From what space, my dear? Where is the evidence that space even exists? Everyone knows that no one has ever been in space!

What about Gagarin and the Americans on the Moon?

Gagarin was supposedly in orbit, not in space, and the Americans, as everyone knows, filmed their entire moon in the Nevada desert. This is all the same continuation of the conspiracy of the damned sorcerers-scientists! As a result, we are forced to admit that even official physics and mathematics, with common sense, clearly show that the Earth simply cannot be round! Here is one of the brightest contradictions!

That is, you claim that mathematics and physics cannot even explain the fact that the Earth is round?

This is pseudoscience! What can pseudoscience prove anyway?

The banal Pythagorean theorem immediately comes to mind.

Do you know why Pythagoras was killed?

For his true knowledge! All over the world, he collected mysteries that remained from the previous great spiritual civilization of Hyperborea, which was destroyed by the Great Flood, but traces of the ancestral home of which still remain everywhere on the territory of Russia! Fortunately, Atlantis was still alive then, and present-day Antarctica was a flourishing land. From there Pythagoras brought real knowledge. And, by the way, he did not age and was a Rus, that is, Russian. But his students, persuaded by the Freemasons, killed him. As a result, everyone now remembers Pythagoras only by the profane interpretation of his deep knowledge, which is now called the theorem named after him!

But the theorem works and has been proven many times

In my youth, I repeated the discovery of Pythagoras, independently proving a similar theorem, but it does not work! And the Russian proved it. His name, if you don’t remember, was Lobachevsky!

If so, then it turns out that mathematics and physics are not needed at all?

Exactly! It is not appropriate for true seekers of knowledge to fill one's head with Masonic teachings! Our task now is to restore, bit by bit, that spiritual knowledge that should become the basis of real science. They still remain in distant monasteries, at base 211, which, by the way, the Masons are still trying to find, in the greatest spirituality of our people. It is not too late to create true science, and on its basis a new highly spiritual civilization.
To do this, we must now uproot all pseudo-science and, throwing back the veil, plunge into the palaces of real knowledge, proving that we are not empty grains of sand in an endless void, but great Warriors of the Spirit! This is the main content of sovereign science, for the possibility of whose development we are fighting with the world behind the scenes.

If we leave the process of struggle alone for a while, then where should we start?

True scientists who strive for knowledge are now under enormous pressure. It is necessary to remove this pressure, which is created by scientists. Then all true forces must unite and develop a general theory that would explain all the secrets of the universe.

Is this possible?

Certainly! Moreover, it already exists! And it's called spirituality! The problem is that pseudoscience is built on the fact that it constantly replaces cause with effect. It is now necessary to break this vicious circle. The time has come to understand that it is not knowledge that leads to discovery, but revelation must be explained by knowledge. Only this way can be effective.

Do I understand correctly, but you are talking about the same thing that we often write about the role of science as a means of justification. True, we are talking about the rationale for the actions of the authorities.

Yes! And that includes the authorities, because this is a supra-mundane entity. And the actions of any supramundane entity require justification by knowledge. This is the task of true sovereign science.

And how is the implementation of such extravagant ideas going?

The ideas are correct, and not at all extra, why use such words at all, aren’t there enough Russian words?

Okay, independent ones.

It is progressing well, and there is support, albeit unspoken, at the very top. Recently, for example, the director of the Kurchatov Institute said that Russia needs integrated science that will find simple explanations for everything.

Is there any merit in this statement?

Thoughts are material, the information field permeates everything that exists. Therefore, of course, I consider such a breakthrough to be my merit: by pumping up the egregor of true knowledge, we influence the essence of things and other people. For now, this is where the movement sees its main task.

The same thing as everywhere to fight the obscurantism of official science and spread true knowledge.

How much consumer knowledge does this have?

Now, praise the universe, it is getting bigger and bigger. Just look at TV, there are more and more truly scientific programs. This means that the people are beginning to awaken from spiritual slumber and are beginning to understand the world differently than the official learned proteges of the West want to see. This means we will win!

For some reason, modern passenger planes do not fly in a straight line, but make huge circles. This is especially noticeable in the Southern Hemisphere: for example, planes flying from Australia to Chile never fly through the South Pole, although this is the shortest route. Or planes flying from Perth, Australia to Johannesburg (South Africa) for some reason fly through Dubai, although there is no need for them to make such a strange zigzag. Why do airlines spend millions of dollars on gasoline and travel costs when all routes can be built much more economically?

There is only one answer: in reality, planes fly in the most straight line - it’s just that the Earth is not really round, but flat, and the maps and globes that we are accustomed to are compiled by liars in order to deceive people. “I’ve also been wondering about flights for a long time. No matter who I asked, no one could answer. Well, in general, watch this wonderful video, there is a lot of interesting things there, and everything is clear,” Vetlitskaya wrote (the author’s spelling has been preserved). The conspiracy, in which politicians, scientists, and education system officials participate, has been going on for more than a century, although it costs nothing to discover the truth. The next time you fly on an airplane, don’t be lazy and study the horizon line through the window. You will see that it is absolutely flat, without any difficulty, exactly like on the ground. But with the help of a good telescope, the “curvature” could be seen even while on the surface of the Earth: for every 100 km of the earth’s surface there should be 196 meters of curvature, say the authors of another video on the same topic.

Are we being lied to? According to the singer, performer of the songs “Look into your eyes” and “Playboy next to me,” she had long suspected a conspiracy, and a video recorded by an unknown YouTube user finally allowed her to dot all the i’s. “And yes, skeptics and fans of officially approved concepts are not recommended to watch this video for the sake of preserving their fragile nervous system,” the singer warns.

Formal lie

Nothing is new on our Earth, and this is true regardless of its form. The ancients had no doubt that our planet was a disk, but they “scientifically substantiated” this theory in the 19th century. In 1956, the Flat Earth Society arose in the United States. Despite the fact that the society flourished in the 1980s, when its ranks included 3 thousand people, it still exists today.

According to the basic principles that society believes in, cosmology looks like this: The Earth is a flat disk with a diameter of 40,000 km. Why exactly 40,000? Because this is the length of any two meridians in geography textbooks. In fact, there are no meridians, since meridians are lines on the surface of the spherical Earth, and the Earth, as we already know, is a flat disk. Therefore, meridians are not lines from pole to pole, but simply radii of the Earth. And two radii, as we know from textbooks on another subject that is more applicable to our planet - geometry, are diameters. In the center of the flat circle is the North Pole. Where is Yuzhny? But there is no South, instead there is a disk boundary. What we used to think of as Antarctica is a long wall of ice encircling the entire Earth. How can this “not be”? Well, have any of you been to the South Pole and seen it with your own eyes? I personally don’t. And those travelers who visited there did not see anything special. Who said this is a pole? They were simply deceived by those involved in the conspiracy.

Wait, the reader will object, but if there is simply no Southern Hemisphere, but there is an outer side of the disk, then any travel along it should be slower than along the inner side. It turns out that the distance, say, from Europe to North America is not so great, but the distance from South America to Africa should be colossal! And any distances in the “Southern Hemisphere”, say, between Sydney and Melbourne, must be much greater than it appears on a regular map. And so it is, say members of society: a kilometer in the “Southern Hemisphere” is much longer than a kilometer in the “Northern”, but politicians hide this from us, and ordinary car owners cannot notice this due to the relatively low speeds of their cars. The truth is obvious only to airline pilots and captains of long-distance ships, but they are all also involved in the conspiracy...

Where does gravity come from? - the reader will resort to a proven argument. It's simple: the Earth constantly soars upward with an acceleration of 9.8 m/s², and this is what creates constant “gravity”. The Moon and the Sun, of course, rotate above the surface of the Earth, and the starry vault itself circles above our planet. What about photographs of the Earth from space? And these are fakes. What about flights to other planets? But no one has flown anywhere, and no one will fly, because there is nowhere to fly. Above our planet there is a flat dome in which waters condense, rain pours from there, and excess water flows over the edges into the world ether. But if you check, get on a plane and fly to the Pole? But you won’t get anywhere: the plane will fall out into the air and be lost forever. Have you heard about the mysterious disappearance of Malaysian Airlines flight MH370? That's it: the pilot brought the plane in the wrong direction.

"Everything is sawn"

These scientists are an ungrateful people: instead of rejoicing that the authors of the YouTube videos have finally painted a consistent picture of the universe, they find fault with little things. For example, they ask how a disk-shaped planetary body could appear in the Universe? The laws of gravity are such that any large planet, no matter what shape it initially had, sooner or later under the influence of its own mass will turn into an ellipsoid close to a ball. Only small bodies like the satellites of Mars - Phobos and Deimos - can “afford” the shape of irregular cobblestones: for a planet like ours, there is no material in nature from which a stable disk could be made; in any case, it will wrinkle and begin to resemble on the ball.

Or they refer to the incomparability of measurements, reminding that modern passenger planes fly at an altitude of 9–10 km: in comparison with the diameter of the Earth of 40 thousand km, this is like the height of a fly in comparison with the height of the house on which it perches. Will the fly see the true shape of the house, being so small? Most likely, she will believe that the whole house is flat, like its roof. Isn’t it stupid that a height of 10 km is funny to them? If they had fallen from such a height, they probably wouldn’t have laughed.

They are trying to refute it ridiculously by referring to a school experience with recording the movement of the starry sky on a stationary photographic plate with a long exposure. It clearly shows that the entire starry sky is moving around the North Star. But if the same record is recorded in the Southern Hemisphere, there will be no North Star there, and the sky will revolve around a conventional point not far from a tiny star - Sigma Octantus. As if someone has the opportunity to fly to the ice wall surrounding our disk, and with the danger of falling over the edge, the ether will install a camera there with numb fingers!

They remind you that in order to make sure that a kilometer across the entire Earth has a total length, they advise Muscovites to fly to Milan with a meter ruler and compare it with the rulers there - the difference in length should be noticeable even between such geographical points. For them, 10 km is not a distance, but here some millimeters must not converge. They are outright lying when they say that planes avoid direct flights because, for the sake of safe navigation, they try to fly over land and not over sea.

Meanwhile, genuine science does not stand still: in her next post, Vetlitskaya revealed the ins and outs of the web of lies in which the world government keeps us. “On this space called Earth, everything has long been cut down and all the rules have been established” by a small group of creatures, “and everyone else is supposed to shut up and just follow the given commands, in general, a strict police regime.” And even later, a new revelation followed from Vetlitskaya, this time about the number of dimensions in our Universe. “Nothing will work out in the 3-dimensional world, don’t even hope,” the singer said in her next status. “Either you rise to a higher level of consciousness, or... Choose for yourself.” Indeed, choose for yourself which level of consciousness to rise to. I personally go out on the first one, where Copernicus and Galileo are.

Hello, friends! What if you found out that there is no space, the earth is flat, and there are several suns? NASA is funded by a secret world government, led by Freemasons, to mislead everyone living on the planet. No one has been in space, the moon is artificial.

Isn't it true, shocking statements that at first glance seem like the ravings of a crazy ignoramus? But don’t rush to twist your finger at your temple.

There is a considerable army of adherents, growing every day, for whom the flat earth theory is not nonsense or pseudoscientific fiction, but, on the contrary, seems to be the only truth.

Supporters of this theory conduct experiments, research, and provide hundreds of significant evidence that we do not live on a geoid ball spinning around its axis and rushing at a speed of 30 km per second around the sun, but on a flat “plate” covered with a transparent dome .

This topic is incredibly exciting. A thousand and one questions immediately arise: how come the oceans don’t pour out, why don’t we see the sun at night, what about all these photos and videos of space expeditions, planets, the moon, spacesuits, shuttles, lunar rovers, satellites, astronauts? This is what the article will discuss.

Flat Earth Society

At school we were taught that only ancient people believed in such tales. Let's remember where you can find references to a flat earth? In Sumerian, Scandinavian, cosmogonic mythology, among the ancient inhabitants of Egypt, Babylon, Greece, in biblical tales, Vedic literature, in Hinduism and Buddhism.

This all happened in ancient times; in the Middle Ages there were also followers of this theory. Nowadays, it is generally accepted that the earth has the shape of a sphere, or rather, the shape of a geoid, and all ancient ideas have been swept aside and recognized by modern science as absolutely untenable.

However, this does not mean that everyone has happily abandoned ancient treatises, forgotten about the ideas of their ancestors and believed in school textbooks. There is something called the Flat Earth Society. It originated in England in the 19th century with the light hand of the English inventor Samuel Rowbotham. He conducted various experiments and experiments, during which he saw what he wanted to see - the earth is flat.

Under the pseudonym Parallax, he wrote a small book called “Zetetic Astronomy,” where he outlined in detail the results of some of his experiments and evidence that the earth is not spherical, and the surface of the world’s oceans is a flat plane.

Over the course of several years, the book was reprinted, each time the number of pages in it increased, as did the number of followers of Rowbotham's theory. Parallax himself gave paid lectures, sometimes behaved aggressively, and was even capable of attacking those who dared to disagree with his point of view.

Followers appeared in America and Europe, and the movement subsequently spread throughout the world. Hitler, by the way, was also an adherent of this theory. The most interesting thing is that there are more and more supporters of this idea; society has broken up into several different movements and organizations.

And it doesn’t matter that many scientists have empirically proven the truth of the statement that the earth is spherical, adherents of the “flat theory” do not pay attention to this and present their unshakable arguments. Just type the appropriate query in a search engine and voila! A whole heap of videos, facts, evidence, reasoning, refutations, forums, discussions on this topic.

But before we move on to describing the most common and truth-like arguments, let's look at the main postulates of adherents of the flat earth theory:

• Imagine a disk in the center of which is the north pole, the diameter of the disk is slightly more than forty thousand kilometers - this is our planet.
• The earth is covered with a transparent dome, above which the sun rotates and, like spotlights, this ensures the change of day and night; gravity, in its usual concept, does not exist.
• There is no Antarctica, but instead of the South Pole, the edge of the earth is surrounded by an ice wall along its entire circumference.
• All photographs from space are fakes, processed in Photoshop or other programs. Spaceships and other devices are made of cardboard and plywood, and all journeys into space are filmed using fictional scenarios on earth.
• The dominant point of view about the sphericity of the earth is just a conspiracy sponsored by the Freemasons to hide the truth from the entire population of the planet.
• Everyone who knows the truth: scientists, NASA employees, astronauts are funded by Freemasons and are also participants in the conspiracy.

Does the solar system exist?

Let's start with an idea of ​​the solar system, does it look like it was taught in school: in the center is the Sun, around which the planets revolve, the Earth takes third place. Could this be true? According to adherents of the flat earth society, of course not.

Why? Everything is logical: such a model of the solar system could exist if the sun hung motionless in space, but this is not so, because everything moves in space. If everything were like this, then the sun, logically, should fly at enormous speed, and the planets should fly behind it and spin in a spiral, but this cannot be.

Second fact: the force of attraction and repulsion of planets and the sun. The force of attraction allows the planets not to “fly away” from the sun, and the force of repulsion allows them not to collide with each other and stay at a certain distance from the sun.

But the masses of the planets are different. And if the solar system existed in the model that is described in books, then planets with a larger mass should be closer to the sun, and those with a smaller mass further away, since the gravitational force for small planets requires much less than for large ones.

Small planets simply would not have enough repulsive force if they were at such a relatively short distance. Thus, our planet would be in sixth place (according to its mass) among other planets, and it would be unrealistically cold on earth.

Evidence and facts

Let’s not bore you and move on to the most interesting part: the evidence and facts held by adherents of the theory that the earth is a flat disk and not a spinning ball.

Does atmospheric pressure not exist?

Let's figure it out. Atmospheric pressure was discovered experimentally by the physicist Evangelista Torricelli, who invented the mercury barometer. He conducted an experiment with mercury and water, thus refuting Aristotle’s assertion that there is no emptiness in nature, that is, vacuum does not exist.

Torricelli proved that a vacuum exists, and that there is also atmospheric pressure, which puts pressure on any body. But this trick doesn’t work with water. Why did it turn out with mercury, it can also turn out with alcohol.

In fact, water barometers also exist, but they are very large, because many times more water is required than alcohol or mercury for it to begin to evaporate. You can read in more detail in books or on the Internet about this experience. Yes, the question still arises: where did Torricelli get a whole bucket of mercury, which is thirteen times heavier than water, and also radioactive? But that is another story.

So, as supporters of the flat earth theory show us, in the case of Torricelli’s experiment, no vacuum was formed in the test tube, and the resulting apparent void, in fact just mercury vapor, which, at a minimum pressure at the very top of the inverted test tube, began to boil at room temperature temperature. That is, it turns out that atmospheric pressure does not exist? And there is no gravitational force in the usual idea either.

The space above the earth does not move anywhere, this becomes clear; adherents of the flat earth theory suggest looking at birds that fly freely, clouds that move depending on the direction of the wind.

But a helicopter or a hot air balloon can generally hover motionless in the air and their pilots, logically (well, if the earth is spherical and spinning) should see the moving earth below them, but this does not happen.

Then, even a stone thrown up and flying for a few seconds, then falling for a few seconds, should land many meters from the place of the throw if the earth is spinning, but this does not happen. Why? Because the earth is flat, answer adherents of the anti-scientific theory.

Curvature of the earth beyond the horizon

Rowbotham began to conduct these experiments; in our time there have been more of them, and they have diversified. If the earth is a sphere, then there is a curvature, and nothing should be visible beyond the horizon line. But in practice, such tall objects as lighthouses, mountains, statues are visible from distances from which they should be significantly below the horizon line, and, therefore, should not be visible if the earth is spherical.

For example, the Needles Lighthouse, located near Hampshire in the UK, whose height is 54 meters, is visible at a distance of up to 60 kilometers, and the curvature of the earth at this distance is 282 meters. It turns out that the point where the lighthouse is located should be 282 meters below the horizon if the earth is spherical. But this does not happen - the lighthouse is visible from such a distance.

The same situation is with ships that are on the open sea, and we look at them from the shore. An illusion is created that, moving away from the shore, the ship disappears beyond the horizon, which seems to confirm that the spherical earth has a bend.

However, if you take good equipment and adjust the magnifying zoom, the ship that “disappeared over the horizon” will reappear in our field of vision. That is, our vision is limited by the point of perspective dispersion, and not by the horizon line. If you “arm your eyes”, then there will be no horizon line limiting visibility due to the curvature of the earth.

All photographs from space are a hoax, the sky is a dome, stars and the sun, and indeed the whole world is artificial. Airplane windows create the illusion of a rounded earth, but this is an optical illusion. Look at the UN emblem, isn't it a model of a flat earth?

Flights to the moon: truth or grandiose deception

Proponents of the flat earth theory claim that Americans have never been to the moon; for example, consider Apollo 11, in which the inhabitants of the earth allegedly made the first trip to the moon.

If you enlarge the photo, you can see what the “lunar rover” is made of: oilcloth, cardboard, foil, plastic and other materials that are by no means intended to overcome atmospheric pressure, much less travel into space.

Click to enlarge

This is just a model photographed against the backdrop of astronauts, all of whom, without exception, are Freemasons. In some photos, you can even see that on the fingers of the astronauts or on their wrists there are rings or watches with generally accepted Masonic symbols: a compass and a square, inside of which is the letter G.

Where are photographs “from Mars” taken?

The same situation applies to photographs allegedly taken on Mars. Adherents of the “flat theory” argue that images from Mars are actually just processed photographs of the earth’s surface, taken in certain places.

Have you seen pictures from the Red Planet - a rocky, lifeless place? The fact is that if you pass them through a Photoshop filter, you will see that in these photographs there is quite the earth’s surface, above which the blue sky stretches. Such landscapes can be found in many regions of our planet.

Air travel routes

Using the flat earth theory it is easy to explain some seemingly counter-intuitive air travel. For example, it is convenient to fly directly from Sydney () to Santiago (Latin America) with refueling, for example in New Zealand. But in fact the route passes through North America.

If you look at a round globe, it turns out that the plane in this case makes a strange angle. And if you transfer the same route to a flat earth map, you can see that this is a direct, adequate path.

This can be checked on almost any routes, applying which to a map of a flat earth, it becomes clear that such a flight trajectory is very logical and adequate, which cannot be said about them when applied to a spherical model.

Moon, sun, stars

The picture will be incomplete without understanding what the moon, sun and stars really are (or not in reality, but according to adherents of the flat earth theory). Here again we see the statement that all photographs "on the moon" are taken on earth.

The Flat Earth Society even conducts special expeditions, the purpose of which is to search for places on our planet where supposedly space photographs are taken. During such an expedition to Iceland in August 2015, they filmed landscapes exactly like the pictures and videos we are told were taken on the moon.

The astronauts participating in the Apollo program (recall that this was the first manned moon landing, which ended in 1975) each and every one refused to swear on the Bible that they had actually been on the Moon. Fragments of this video are easy to find on the Internet. Some of the astronauts swear, some avoid answering, some rudely send a journalist who asks him to swear on the Bible about the reality of walking on the lunar surface.

We present to you a video that proves that flights to the moon are fiction:

If you collect all the arguments, add to them the data obtained as a result of observations carried out by some alternative researchers, season the information received with knowledge about the flat earth and systematize the material, it turns out that the Moon is not a satellite of the earth, it does not exist in principle. How do we see it? This is a huge hologram hanging from above and updated periodically.

Now let's turn to the stars. It is known that astrology is an ancient science and many constellations, for example the Big Dipper, were discovered thousands of years ago. And during this time the constellations have not changed at all. Isn't it strange if all the bodies in space are constantly moving at huge different speeds?

In addition, if the Earth rotates all the time around its axis, and even around the sun, then why do we see the same stars above our heads on starry nights? After all, the earth turns to them in different directions, besides, it flies around the sun, and the stars “stand rooted to the spot” in the same place. Doesn't this seem absurd? We don’t know about you, but it seems like it to supporters of the flat earth theory. They claim that stars are also holograms.

Now let's deal with the Sun. Is the sun also a hologram? There are many photographs, articles and videos that indicate the presence of not one, but many suns, and they “hang” in different parts above our earth and shine in different ways. There are even listings with brief descriptions of all seventeen suns: starting with the Californian and ending with the Chinese. Of course, scientists will say that this is all nonsense. But let's see how the adherents who believe in a flat earth explain this.

The fact is that the sun cannot have the same color as we see it (from yellow to red). Indeed, according to the official theory, the blue color of the sky is due to the fact that the light of the sun, passing through the atmosphere, is divided into spectra and one of the spectra (blue-blue) colors the sky in this color. Why then does the sun itself appear yellow?

Since we see it through the atmosphere, it should also be colored blue, like the sky. Does this mean that we do not see the sun through the atmosphere? The sun is not above the atmosphere, but much lower and is it not real? What is the result?

The earth has the shape of a disk and is located under a dome from which artificial hologram lamps shine: the moon, the sun, the stars. If you are interested in delving into this topic, then books, videos, and materials distributed by adherents of the flat earth theory are not difficult to find.

Closer to the light source - warmer

Everyone loves to present book proofs based on theories. but no one can answer the simplest question without books.

When we get closer to a heat source, we become hotter. Why is it colder at airplane altitude than on the ground? No, don’t write about the temperatures of a certain layer of the atmosphere, you’re still taking it from books again and haven’t checked it yourself.

Let's actually say that closer to the heat source is warmer. Those. Closer to the sun it should be warmer. But in fact this is not the case. This indicates that the heat source is false. It must be much hotter in space than on earth in direct sunlight.

False World Map (addition)

We are supplementing this article with new information, which we have included in a separate review due to its volume.

- the article clearly examines the sizes of the continents, which are shown by the official source - Yandex.Maps and which strongly contradict the map of the world that we have known since childhood.

Finally, I would like to note that all information for the article was prepared and collected from free sources, the purpose of the article is not to persuade readers to one point of view or another.

We'd love to hear your thoughts on the flat earth topic in the comments.

The generally accepted statement that ancient scientists considered our Earth to be flat is not entirely true. Of course, someone thought it was flat, but in fact there were several versions, including one that the Earth is a sphere. Today, it would seem, all the i’s are dotted and no one doubts that the Earth is a ball revolving around the Sun.

No matter how it is. Whether for fun or for PR, or maybe for religious reasons, the world is again split on this issue into two opposing camps. Are you surprised? If someone comes up to you and claims that the Earth is flat, will you twist it at your temple? Oh well. The fact that the Earth is a ball (to be precise, a geoid) and revolves around the Sun is a generally accepted theory and, it seemed, beyond doubt? It wasn’t there...

Which Earth is it: round or flat?

On the one hand, modern science claims that the Earth is round, and on the other... At the head, perhaps, is the Flat Earth Society. The main goal is to prove that the Earth is flat, and the governments of all countries are in a conspiracy and in various ways mislead about the sphericity of the Earth, hiding the fact that the Earth is flat.

The Flat Earth Society still has its adherents.

The basic concepts of the flat earth society are:

The Earth is a flat disk, 40,000 kilometers in diameter, centered near the North Pole.

The Sun and Moon and stars move above the surface of the Earth.

Gravity is denied. The acceleration due to gravity occurs because the Earth is moving upward with an acceleration of 9.8 m/s². Due to the curvature of space-time, this can last indefinitely.

South Polenet. Antarctica is actually the icy edge of our disk - a wall encircling our world.

All photographs of the Earth from space are fakes.

The distance between objects in the southern hemisphere is actually much greater. The fact that flights between them occur much faster than should be according to the flat Earth map can be explained simply - the airliner crews are involved in a conspiracy.

The Sun is something like a powerful searchlight 51 km in diameter, which circles above the Earth at a distance of 4800 km and illuminates it.

Everything that happens is an experiment on us.

All scientific institutes deliberately lie that the Earth is spherical, etc.

The government also lies - it works for its masters - the reptilians.

There were no flights into space, and there’s nothing to say about the Moon, it’s all a hoax.

All videos about space flights were filmed on Earth.

And off we go. Gradually the world is splitting into two halves. One goes to live on a round and spherical Earth, the other – also round, but flat.

Both sides provide “irrefutable” evidence of their vision of the shape of the earth.

Here are some of the most interesting facts of the universe from the lips of both opponents.

The earth is flat because:

IN THE AREA OF VISIBILITY THE HORIZONT LINE IS FLAT Flat-Earth Evidence: Take any photograph where the horizon line is flat, not rounded. Ball-earth refutation: to see the real curves of the horizon line or plane in the frame, you need a much greater distance from the shooting point from the surface of the earth. This is clearly visible in photographs from space. Flat earth answer: all pictures from space are fakes from NASA and the like. Space doesn't exist.

THE BIBLE TALKS ABOUT A FLAT EARTH

Flat earth proofs: In many descriptions in the Bible, the Earth is flat earth.

(Daniel 4:7, 8): “The visions of my head on my bed were as follows: I saw, behold, a very tall tree in the middle of the earth. This tree was large and strong, and its height reached to the sky, and it was apparently up to ends of the whole earth » -

This expression only applies to flat earth.

Ball-earth rebuttal:(published taking into account the opinions of fundamentalist Christians):

It should be immediately clarified that the Bible is not a scientific work aimed at explaining the structure of the universe. In the Holy Scriptures, this is done figuratively and in a language understandable to the common people, based on the knowledge that the people had in those days. However, when carefully read and interpreted, the Bible does not contradict modern science and does not indicate that the Earth is not spherical.

In this case, the dream of Nebuchadnezzar, the king of the Neo-Babylonian kingdom, who reigned from September 7, 605 to October 7, 562 BC, is described. e.. The tree in the dream, as it turned out from Daniel’s interpretation of the dream, is Nebuchadnezzar himself. It is correct to consider the edge of the Earth to be the border of the Neo-Babylonian kingdom, for a simple reason: Nebuchadnezzar never ruled the entire Earth. Moreover, it speaks of vision, and not of direct observation.

Flat earth:

(Isaiah 42:5): “Thus says the Lord God, who created the heavens and their expanses, who spread out the earth with its products.” This can only be done with a flat earth.

Ball-earth rebuttal:

This description refers to what are currently called continents. Modern science, with minor reservations, considers the continents to be flat. If this action is considered applicable to a plane, this does not in any way indicate that the entire Earth is also flat.

Flat earth:There is no continuation of dialogue from the appender yet

(Matthew 4:8): “Again the devil takes Him [Jesus] to a very high mountain and shows Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory.”

This is only possible if the Earth is flat.

Ball-earth rebuttal(from Bible scholars and scholars):

All the highest mountains on Earth are known. Climbers have climbed everything, and more than once. Unfortunately, it is not possible to examine all the “kingdoms” with any of them, and the reason is not at all that the Earth is round (this is not a hindrance), but because it is impossible to examine anything at such a distance . But a modern person can watch “all the kingdoms of the world” on a computer monitor or smartphone. However, Satan's capabilities and abilities far exceed those of humans. In what way he showed the kingdoms and why the high mountain was needed, we do not know.

The most interesting thing is that theoretically this is how the entire Earth can be viewed. Don't be surprised, this is really true. This phenomenon is called diffraction. Under certain conditions, we see the horizon line much further than theoretically we should see it. This is how mirages arise. Of course, in real life the chances of seeing something like this are incredibly small. After all, this requires a certain air temperature, humidity, transparency and, possibly, something else. There is even less chance of seeing the whole Earth. And it’s absolutely insignificant - to view what you want. But who said that the devil does not know how to use this phenomenon? Showing such mirage pictures to Jesus would be a very effective way to influence his human spiritual-sensual nature in order to achieve admiration from him. On the other hand, here we can also talk about vision without direct observation.

Flat earth:There is no continuation of dialogue from the appender yet

(Job 38:12,13): “Did you ever give orders to the morning in your life and show the dawn its place so that it would embrace ends of the earth and shook off the wicked..."

(Job. 37:3 )"Under the whole sky its roar, and its shine - to the ends of the earth ."

The edges can only have a plane.

Ball-earth rebuttal:(from Bible scholars and scholars):

The Lord speaks to Job about the unshakable order of alternation of day and night established by Him. It is figuratively said that the dawn disperses darkness and stops the deeds of the wicked committed at night. The expression “end of the earth” is also used by those who are well aware of the spherical shape of the Earth.

There are other references in the Bible to the edges and corners of the Earth, which can be interpreted in different ways: for example, that these are the edges of continents or countries. In addition, the Bible itself confirms that the word “earth” means dry land:

(Life 1:10 ) And God called the dry land earth , and called the collection of waters seas.

Therefore, it is impossible to accept these scriptures as proof that the Earth is flat.

Flat earth:There is no continuation of dialogue from the appender yet

BEDFORD EXPERIMENT

It was carried out in 1838 by Samuel Rowbotham. This experiment is considered the most reliable evidence.

The essence of the experiment is extremely simple. Rowbotham found a flat area of ​​about 10 km (6 miles) on the Bedford River. I installed the telescope at a height of 20 inches (50.8 cm) from the surface of the water and began to watch the receding boat with a five-meter mast.

The mast was visible throughout the boat's movement. On the basis of which Rowbotham stated that the Earth is flat.

If the Earth were round, the mast should have disappeared from view.

Ball-earth rebuttal:

Lifting horizon in this case it happened due to the phenomenon of refraction. Due to positive refraction, the visible horizon has risen. As a result, its geographic range increased compared to its geometric range. This made it possible to see objects hidden by the curvature of the Earth. At normal temperatures, the horizon rise is 6-7%.

For reference: If the temperature increases excessively the visible horizon can rise to the true mathematical horizon. At the same time, the earth's surface will visually straighten. The earth will become flat, to the delight of flat-earthers. Of course, only visually. The visibility range under these conditions will become infinitely large. The radius of curvature of the beam can become equal to the radius of the globe.

For reference: The discoverer of light refraction is considered to be the Italian physicist and astronomer Grimaldi Francesco Maria (1618-1663)

Naturally, Samuel Rowbotham was well aware of the phenomena of refraction. And it is quite logical that the published book describing experiments proving that the Earth is flat did not arouse any interest among scientists. But there were many adherents. One of Hemplein’s followers even placed a bet of 500 pounds (not a small amount at that time) that he would allegedly prove to any opponent that the Earth was flat. And such an opponent was found. It was the scientist Alfred Wallace. Of course, he knew perfectly well what he was doing. The experiment was carried out in the same valley. But Wallace changed the observation slightly. He used an intermediate point - a bridge, on which a circle was fixed. A horizontal line was placed at the end point. The telescope, circle and line were at the same height relative to the surface of the water. If the Earth were flat, a line would be visible through the circle at its center. Naturally, this did not happen. However, Hamplen refused to pay the due amount and called Wallace a liar and a forger.

So what is the Earth like?

Isn't it time to tell the true story that Magellan simply swam in a circle, not around the Earth? Cook sailed along the edge of the Earth in search of Antarctica. And by the way, he was right: Antarctica does not exist! Kruzenshtern also had good reason to doubt it when he discovered Antarctica. After all, he just ran into an icy wall that was created to prevent the oceans from flowing out. It is not clear, of course, how he managed to get around our Earth’s disk (yes, a disk, let’s call a spade a spade) in 751 days. Again conspiracy and falsification! He didn’t put anything on the map and didn’t go anywhere, he probably drank beer somewhere in Australia, and the maps were given to him ready-made, drawn at NASO. NASO is a special organization that, for our billions, fools us, draws cool pictures of space, makes viewing programs for the supposedly round Earth, and films hoax shows of flights into space and to the Moon. Governments are in cahoots, all scientists are in cahoots, pilots are in cahoots, the police are also aware - collusion, all smart people are also in cahoots. In short, everything is in conspiracy against honest people who understand the essence of the true universe and, finally, with the advent of the Internet, are ready to open the eyes of those who are not yet in the know.

This is roughly what this serious problem looks like today. So what kind of Earth do we actually live on? If you know any facts, please report them in the comments. Perhaps you will be able to find inaccuracies in the article or the need to supplement it, we will also comment. And we will certainly make an addition, and possibly a continuation, taking into account all your comments and wishes. Please behave correctly, do not send your participants to the third grade of high school or to a psychiatrist, or twist your finger to your temple. Checked - doesn't work. Only strong arguments and evidence of a flat or spherical Earth will help save the situation.

“Vasechkin, prove to us that the Earth is round.” - “But I didn’t say that.”
Today we find it easy to laugh at dialogue from a popular children's film. And once upon a time, the shape of planet Earth was the subject of fierce discussions between scientists and was even a bargaining chip in human destinies. For every piece of evidence from supporters of the “round” theory, there were many refutations. Today this issue has been removed from the agenda. Photographs taken from space confirm: the Earth resembles a ball, an orange, a tennis ball, although not perfectly smooth in contour. If Vasechkin had been a diligent student, he would have easily proven this...

How ideas about the shape of the Earth have changed

In the days before our era, science, if it could be considered such, was based on myths, legends and simple observations. The huge starry sky above our heads gave rise to many different fantasies about the structure of the Universe, the astronomical objects inhabiting it, their appearance and forms of interaction.

Later, religion made its contribution to ideas about what our planet looks like, what it rests on and why it rotates. The Creator has his own laws of the universe, so the arguments given by scientists were often questioned or refuted, and the authors of the hypotheses themselves were persecuted.

Versions about whales, elephants and a giant turtle holding a large flat disk called planet Earth seem naive today. However, for a long time they were considered the only true ones.

The Greeks had a rather original theory about the shape of the Earth. The flat cosmic body is supposedly located under the cap of the celestial hemisphere and is connected to the stars by invisible threads. And the moon and the sun are not objects of the Universe, but divine creations.

Modern hypotheses regarding the flat configuration of the planet were also very peculiar. In order to defend this version, even the so-called Flat Earth Society appeared. Assumptions about a round shape were completely rejected, and the theory itself was presented in the eyes of its opponents as a conspiracy and a set of pseudoscientific fabrications.

Proponents of the flat earth form argued that:

• The Earth is a flattened disk with a diameter of 40 thousand kilometers centered near the North Pole.
• The sun, moon and stars do not move around the planet, but seem to hang above its surface.
• The South Pole does not exist. Antarctica is an ice wall located along the contour of the planetary disk.
• The sun, with a diameter of 51 kilometers, is located above the Earth at a distance of about 5 thousand kilometers and illuminates it like a powerful spotlight.

But the main arguments for the inconsistency of the “round” theory were the statements that man did not fly into space, did not land on the Moon, all space photographs of the Earth are falsifications, scientific institutions are in collusion with the governments of pseudo-space powers, and all inhabitants of the planet are part of a big secret experiment.

It is clear that such statements cannot be taken seriously, because such “evidence” has nothing to do with science.

The most famous theories that the Earth is round

Let's go back to the history of early times. Doubts regarding the fact that the Earth has a flat surface did not leave scientists. If this is so, they reasoned, the celestial bodies should be in the same visibility zone, and the time of day should be the same in all corners of the planet.

However, the sun at different zones and latitudes continued to rise and set at different periods, and the stars that shone brightly at one point were invisible at another. All this proved that the Earth has any surface shape except flat.

In the 5th-6th century BC, Pythagoras recounted in detail in his work the impressions of one sailor from traveling in the Mediterranean Sea. It was a real diary of observations, which the scientist carefully analyzed. It was on the basis of these stories that the scientist suggested that the earth might resemble a large ball.

In the 4th century BC, Aristotle spoke in favor of a spherical shape. He cited three, now classic, proofs:

1. When an eclipse occurs on the Moon, which is located next to the Earth, the shadow cast from our planet has an arc-shaped outline. This can only happen if the object the light hits is a ball.
2. Ships leaving for the sea do not “dissolve” gradually as they move away, but seem to fall into the water, approaching the horizon.
3. The stars that people love to look at can be admired in one part of the Earth, but remain invisible in another.

The fact that our planet is a ball was among the first to be proven by the ancient Greek scientist Eratosthenes. He made his conclusions using a specially designed pole, which cast a shadow in sunlight.

By observing the position of the sun simultaneously in different populated areas, the scientist was able to measure the height of the sun at its zenith and compare the indicators with each other.

It turned out that the points of the sun's position relative to the earth's surface are at an angle to each other. This proved that the planet has a round shape. Eratosthenes even managed to measure half the diameter of the globe. Surprisingly, modern calculations practically coincided with the indicators of the ancient scientist. The size of the Earth in radius today is almost 6400 kilometers.

There are versions of researchers that the shape of the planet is not perfectly round, but uneven, sometimes flattened on the sides. It even more closely resembles an ellipse, although this is not noticeable from photographs from space.

It is worth remembering that Newton also argued that the circumference of the earth’s sphere is not a figure that a modern schoolchild can draw with a compass. Modern space discoveries and measurements have shown that the diameter of the Earth is indeed not the same everywhere.

In the 19th century, the German mathematician and astronomer Friedrich Bessel was able to calculate the radii in places where the planet is compressed. Researchers used these data until the 20th century.

Already in our time, the Soviet scientist Theodosius Krasovsky presented more accurate measurements to the academic community. According to these data, the difference between the equatorial and polar radii is 21 kilometers.

And finally, according to the latest scientific hypotheses, the planet has the shape of a so-called geoid. It is different everywhere and depends on the height of the hills located on it, the depth of the depressions, as well as the intensity of water movements in the world's oceans.

However, the fact that our planet has the shape of a three-dimensional circle has long been beyond doubt. And the presence of many existing versions on this issue proves: the Earth is a unique space object, the mysteries of which scientists are still trying to unravel.

Top 10 evidence that the Earth is round

So, if schoolboy Petya Vasechkin learned his lesson and presented the ten most common (and now generally accepted by humanity) evidence of the sphericity of our planet, this is what he would list.

1. During a lunar eclipse, when the Earth's satellite enters the shadow cast by our planet, it is clear that the reflection has the shape of a circle, a circular segment or an arc from it, depending on the degree of darkness. This is why when the Moon darkens, it turns into a crescent rather than half a triangle or a square.
2. Ships moving away from the shore do not dissolve, going beyond the horizon, but seem to fall beyond it. This means that the planet is changing its curve. So the worm, moving along the surface of the apple, changes the trajectory of its movement. The fact that ships do not fall from top to bottom, as one might assume, is explained by the fact that the earth is constantly turning, aligning the guides for further linear movement. And of course, a spherical figure is characterized by a shift in gravity towards the center.
3. In different hemispheres of the globe you can see different constellations. If you imagine a flat table with a lampshade hanging above it, it is equally visible from every point of the table. If you place a ball under the lampshade, the lamp at the bottom will not be visible. Constellations that are clearly visible in the northern hemisphere of the Earth should not be looked for in the sky of the southern hemisphere and vice versa.
4. The length of shadows that fall on a flat surface has the same indicators. Two shadows from a round object have different lengths and form an angle.
5. The view of a flat surface is the same from any height. If you rise above something spherical, then you have the opportunity to observe more distantly. The prospect in this case increases.
6. Photographs taken from an airplane at various altitudes show that the Earth has curves. If the earth were flat, it would look level from any height. If you take a trip around the world, you can do it without stopping because the Earth has no “edges.”
7. Photographs from aircraft, which can fly higher than airplanes, clearly demonstrate that the horizon does not have a straight contour, but a curved contour.
8. There are several time zones on our big planet. When dawn comes in one, the sun sets below the horizon in the other. This is how a spherical body rotates around its axis. If the sun illuminated a flat surface, people would not know nights.
9. Everything on the Earth's surface is attracted toward the planet's core. It is for spherical objects that the center of mass shifts to the middle.
10. Since 1946, we have been able to take photographs of the Earth from space. All of them are the best visual evidence that we live on a ball.

In the age of modern technology, when people even send cars into space, there are still Old Believers who believe in the flat Earth theory. They even organized a society of the same name, which is trying in every possible way to prove that our planet is far from spherical. According to them, all this is actually a conspiracy by the government and NASA to confuse and deceive people, and as a result, members of the flat Earth society imagine themselves as fighters for justice. Particularly ardent supporters are even trying to build rockets to fly into space, but everything is in vain, and they are not given permission, which, according to them, is another proof of the concealment of this fact.

Why are these people so sure that our Earth is flat, like your former classmates, and what fuels their belief? We decided to understand this absurdity and put everything in its place.

1. How do they explain it?

This is how members of the flat Earth society justify their theory and why they are strenuously hiding the truth from us: they have not found a single piece of evidence that our planet is spherical (a very strange argument). Also, the creator of the flat Earth theory says that the Earth is a disk with an arctic circle, in the center of which there is Antarctica and a wall about 45 meters high. Moreover, NASA employees carefully guard this secret, and the location of the wall is classified.

The day and night cycle of the Earth is explained by the fact that the Sun and Moon are spheres with a radius of 51 kilometers, which move around the circumference of the planet, which, by the way, is 4,828 km. The stars are approximately 5,000 kilometers from Earth, and they are in constant motion.

Earth's gravity is an illusion. Objects are not attracted to the planet's surface, but rather, it is the Earth's disk that is accelerating and rushing upward at a speed of 9.8 meters per second, fueled by mysterious dark energy, which in itself sounds "crazy" scientific. There are still disagreements among members of the PZ club about whether Einstein’s theory of relativity allows us to allow the acceleration of our planet, so even in their perverted reality, the laws of the brilliant physicist exist. Members of society do not know for certain what lies under the disk of the Earth, but they believe that the support is made of stones.

But what about photos from satellites, live broadcasts from space? Conspiracy theorists believe that photographs of the globe are photoshopped, GPS devices lie, and satellites do not actually fly around the planet, but in straight lines. The purpose of hiding the fact that the Earth is flat has not yet been established, but members of the PZ club assume that this is connected with money; they do not specify how exactly.

2. Who believes in the flat earth theory?

This theory has many followers from various social groups. For example, on January 25, 2016, rapper Bobby Ray Simmons Jr. (known as BoB) released a track called “Flatline” in which he tries to convey to his fans that we are being deceived and that the Earth is actually flat. Shaquille O'Neal did not stand aside. On February 27, 2017, he stated that the Earth was flat for the simple reason that he was driving a straight road from Florida to California, although he later admitted that this was just a joke.

The main backbone of the flat Earth theory is made up of ordinary citizens who, for reasons unknown to us, are actively trying to find a justification for this. They do this out of protest or because their life is boring, but their perception of reality is definitely completely different.

3. Zetic method

The flat earth theory is supported by the so-called Zetic method, which was developed in the 19th century and is based on sensory observations. Michael Wilmore, vice president of the Flat Earth Company, says: “Broadly speaking, this method focuses on reconciling empiricism and rationalism. With this, we can draw logical conclusions based on empirical data."

It turns out that since we see the Earth as flat, and even on an airplane it looks flat, it means that in reality our planet does not have the shape of a ball. These statements make the theory so absurd and unrealistic that it seems as if no person in the world over the age of 7 could believe it.

Wilmore considers himself a true believer and has no plans to give up his views: “My own beliefs are the result of philosophical introspection and the study of a significant amount of data that I have personally researched, which I am still collecting,” he said. Despite this, he believes in global warming, although the lion's share of such information is provided by NASA.

4. Conspiracy theory

Despite the absurdity of this theory, it was still studied, and one of the researchers was Karen Douglas, a psychologist from the University of Kent. She says the beliefs of flat Earth believers are the same as those of any other theorist who believes there are many conspiracies in the world.

“It seems to me that these people really believe that the Earth is flat. I don’t see any other reason why they are sincerely convinced that the Earth is indeed flat,” which means that these people are just as sure as you and I are that the Earth is spherical.

Karen said that all conspiracy theories have a common focus: they give people a new or alternative version of events, and independently construct their own reality in which their views are true. “The main feature is that they tend to believe in global events, but do not want to go into details. The argument at this point is very vague and based on speculation.”

Flat Earth followers defend their views very harshly, while we, ordinary people, are calm about the fact that someone is trying to challenge our views and worldview. Perhaps, thanks to their active position, these people were heard, so if you want to create a new theory, then find ardent followers. Another secret that people believe in different theories so easily is our essence. A person will happily believe in something that will be radically different from generally accepted opinion and standards.
