Help. How do you convince my friend we live on a spinning basketball?
At a BBQ trying to convince my friends the earth is not flat.
Boiii, this was going so wrong. They keep giving me all these "facts" so confidently.
Before I can even "well, actually" any of them they had already spewed out more "facts."
These so called "facts" were the earth is apparently stable, and motionless?? How water would never stick to a spinning ball, how there actually is no curve?? How all astronauts are freemasons sworn under blood oaths, how we never landed on the moon??? Etc. I could barely keep up.
Then they started talking about how the Bible was edited, and how in Genesis the word firmament was buried and mistranslated. We apparently live in a dome. (Insert Goggins* who knew)
Science was apparently called natural philosophy before what it is now which is actually a major religion(wow I thought they were talking out their ass, but they kept going).
Apparently scripture speaks highly against natural philosophy. Ofc I couldn't get any specific verses out of them. They did say that Science has brainwashed the masses. I'm not sure what this one guy was talking about.
He started talking about how Jesus in the Bible is a fictional Santa. He was never named Jesus or white. A major part of the Torah/10 commandments is to not have graven images, and thats a big part of Catholicism the foundation of Christianity. That was a complex turn in the conversation that was interrupted by meats.
Anyways how would you guys of handled arguing with such audacity?
