Take that same flight and chart it on the flat map like on the UN flag. It will be an almost straight line along the same flight path. Besides, if this video were true the flights from Santiago Chile to Auckland NZ would travel over the south pole. They do not. Instead they fly directly east-west. Why the difference?

Before you go look into Operation Highjump. Admiral Byrd led a naval task force including a carrier group to Antarctica right after WWII. They had a battle with objects that could fly at incredible speeds above or below the water. Many aircraft and a destroyer were lost along with many sailors.

Try to find what the admiral had to say about what happened if you can. He was institutionalized after returning and demanding to tell the American public what had transpired. He died while institutionalized under very suspicious circumstances.

This was debunked decades ago. Byrd was on ‘special assignment’ thousands of miles away. This was the cover story for his ‘disappearance’.
Yeah, he also said he flew into a hole in the earth in Anartica and flew (lol) and right into middle earth that has a sun,, stars, greenery life and more ‘journey to the center of the earth crapola. Met the Middle Earth queen who lives inside the earth there and her ‘subjects’; was warned to respect (worship) the earth, (or what?) recycle, re-use etc and then flew out the same way.
No wonder he was institutionalized.
Not all armed services personnel are sane.

Are people actually so dense as to think that there are only two options? Like either you die and that’s the end of it or you go to live on a cloud with some old dude with a long beard?

Even Neil DeGrasse, who lies about pretty much everything space, says that Felix Baumgartner could not see the earth’s curvature from 24 miles up, which supposedly equates to a height of 2 millimeters above a beach ball size earth. The cruising altitude of an airplane is about 8 miles, so that would be like 0.7 mm above the beach ball. So, no, none of us have seen any curvature from an airplane.

As a child I observed an oil rig on the horizon out at sea, from the top of the cliff I could see the legs and superstructure of the rig. I walked down to the beach bellow the cliff and could then only see the top of the drill derek. The unintended science experiment I conducted that day is all the proof needed to conclusively determine the shape of the earth.

So let’s get this straight then: we are told to believe that the atmosphere and everything inside of it is being dragged along in the same physical frame of reference as the Earth through the vacuum of space at roughly 550,000 mph, chasing the Sun at 66,600 mph, while rotating at speeds of over 1,000 mph. All this without anyway for us to determine the massive inertial shift from the poles to the equator that would be present on a physical globe. Simultaneously, we are told the rotation of said atmosphere is also responsible for decreasing flight times, even though said rotation can not be felt by the observer in any way whatsoever.

Lol trust me globies, you don’t want to go down this rabbit trail.

According to the globe model, Saint Petersburg is positioned at approximately 60 degrees North latitude, thereby experiencing a velocity of about 350 mph due to Earth’s alleged rotation. Contrastingly, Nairobi is supposedly situated directly on the equator, boasting a swift pace of 1040 mph. This stark difference manifests in a practical scenario for us: a plane departing from Saint Petersburg can traverse southward and enter Nairobi’s airspace without factoring in the staggering 700 mph lateral ground speed variation between the two locations. The conventional explanation offered is that the atmosphere moves in tandem with the Earth’s surface and any effects due to rotation can not be felt.

Additionally, headwinds are admitted even within the mainstream paradigm to have a significantly greater impact on flight times than the alleged effect/non-effect of the Coriolis effect. Flight manuals, in their operational guidelines and procedures, operate under the assumption of the Earth’s non-rotation for flight purposes. This means that the rotation of the Earth is not factored into flight plans and considerations.

If it was, these kind of considerations would have to be taken into account on every single flight we take, which, I can assure you after some 500 hours of flight courtesy of Moloch’s Air Force, I have never once seen occur.

ETOPS regulations

Airlines operate with a maximum operation time in minutes in a degraded condition to a divert airport. Originally ETOPS was limited to 90 minutes, but now 120 and 180 are not uncommon, and some aircraft are certified to 330 minutes.

ETOPS has nothing to do with operations over land. Rough terrain doesn’t figure into it, because the diversion computations are based on diverting to specific airports (North Atlantic routes could in theory be flown with ETOPS-120, but because diversionary airports are sometimes below minimums, ETOPS-180 is more often required.

Antarctica has a dearth of suitable airports. Any emergency landing would quickly turn into a buffet of Chilean Football clubs where the last man standing still wouldn’t get out..

Not a good look for an airline and would violate every ETOPS written as of right now.

There is very little chance of surviving at sea, but if you have any ability to limp along the plane can at least head for a ship. They are scarce but easily findable with communications. Also, if you lose pressurization, low altitude flight is survivable. Crashing in Antarctica is a zero chance of survival and there is no altitude that won’t kill you.

People have still flown over it for the same reason people do everything. Doesn’t make sense to risk passengers over it though.

Few to none that have been successful Scrabble.

Which is the point of having those rules in the first place.

It doesn’t prove the earth is flat, or a sphere, or a spheroid, or if it is turtles all the way down. All it does is provide the rules that prohibit passenger airliners from flying over Antarctica. You can venture into conspiracy, be my guest, but the math works when it doesn’t have those planes flying over that vast expanse.

For the facts are, and we should be able to both agree, that ditching in an ocean, or starving and freezing in snowy wastes of the south pole always end in a bad day for any souls on board of any of those doomed planes.

By definition a conspiracy yes, and maybe NASA is to blame for all of it. But for the passengers and crew that fly in these planes, shouldn’t they have at least a chance of making it to the ground in one piece, more or less, at the end of the day.

I know who wrote ETOPS.

And for me that explanation doesn’t hold the kind of water it does for everyone else. But like I say, YMMV.

Don’t know what size Earth is, don’t know what shape. Don’t know if it’s a ball or a dish or digital creation of some super intelligence so vast and complex none of us recognize we’re nothing but zeroes and ones.

All I do know is that I have senses and navigate my way through life based on how they perform and every single one of them tells me that the conventional wisdom doesn’t make any sense to me. It doesn’t feel like it’s moving and it doesn’t look round and since I’ll never be able to know for certain, I guess I’ll have to trust my own senses rather than the assurances of guys like Neil DeGrasse Tyson.

Besides, why would anyone care what someone else thinks if their certain about what they believe? Knowledge doesn’t require consensus, it just is.

When you actually don’t know something, there is no need for trolling people. And there isn’t even any point to curiousity, if you think you can’t know.

And as for you may poo pooing the idea of a plane being within a prescribed maximum contact distance of a safe airport on the ground, and it not making sense, there is an obvious question that needs asking.

Do you drive to town in your truck that is 14 miles away with gas to make it with one mile to spare? Or do you make sure there is a reserve in case you are delayed at some point by…

The Japanese admitted to that infamous tactic with their Pacman video game… you go out the east door and enter thru the west door on the opposite side.

Hirohito’s Unit 731 turned this dangerous know-how over to MacArthur’s occupational authority, securing it for US dominance of the play field Edge. Don’t believe me, look it up.

Notice how we always fail in middle-east and Baltic states where this advantage can not be exploited.

Weird how airlines and shipping vessels follow the great arc navigation and not straight line nav.

Click on a plane and you can see its travel route. Unless its a short jump they all arc… super weird.

The Earth is flat only because I say it is. It will remain flat until I say it isn’t.

I intend to force all liberals to repeat this knowledge as a means of humiliation and payback for all of the insane ignorant crap they try to force others to repeat daily. I say again, The Earth is flat. It’s science. Long proven. Everyone knows it but won’t admit it. It’s a conspiracy to cover up the truth. That is all.

When I saw this thread I started laughing out loud at the timing…

I am a bit overwhelmed with little spare time at the moment: March planting, orchard prep, graveling a washed out road, recently stepped on a nail (one of the few times I wasn’t wearing boots becasuse of the Copperhead threat doncah ya know), expanding my chicken free range free feed area with fence moving/expansion, repairing my emergency well hand pump line that was damaged by a well expert changing out the 23 year old electric pump (successfully) who now is dying (without reversing his accidental damage during the replacement long story) and I am leaving him alone of course (he is a great guy), reading/reading/reading – prepping/prepping/prepping, and always (3 times a day at least) flinging balls across the pastures for Pepper the Wonder Dog to fetch.

So I recently found a remarkable Christian website from David Nika Wilcoxson who has a massive, and I mean massive body of work on the Historic viewpoint of prophecy…a camp I found myself in well before I stumbled across him.

https://www.youtube.com/@EndTimesDeceptions

I have e-mailed him with some comments directly, he is always responsive and is a polite sincere gentlemen.

I posted some of his material on TBP on a couple of threads as I believe what he does about Daniel 9:27 and much, much more.

Anyway, yesterday I ran across this:

ME
comment image

Wilcoxson says: “The Bible describes a GEOCENTRIC universe, with a sun that’s moving in a circuit, and an earth that is fixed.

The enemy is pushing the lie of heliocentism, which led to the evil deception of evolution, which removes the importance of the earth and of mankind.

The enemy pushes this agenda to attack the credibility of the Genesis creation narrative, and the Creator.

This book goes through all 240 verses that people like Nathan Roberts cite, to show you the proper context; because if you’re promoting this list, then you’re accountable for the explanations.

I’m offering my book for free, because I want people to see what Scripture is really proclaiming.

Complete this request and a link to the book will be sent to you. Your email address will not be used for any purpose, other than to provide the PDF”.

Free Book:

Get Your Copy Of The False Doctrine Of The Flat Earth

So I down loaded it and read the first 40 pages…but that is all I have had time for to date! No time today…It is going to take me awhile, time that will be slow coming to study and discern what he says and believes.

comment image
Hmmmm…

THE HIDDEN OPTION OF THE GEOCENTRIC GLOBE EARTH

Wilcoxson says: “This flat earth deception page focuses on how scientific proofs point to a geocentric earth.

Flat earthers proclaim that the enemy has deceived us about the design of the universe, AND THEY ARE RIGHT! I now believe that the enemy has created a deception to deceive people into believing that life on Earth was a product of chance and time, and not a Creator.

The enemy has done that by causing astronomers to proclaim that the universe is heliocentric. They do this not because they have any proof that the Earth is moving, but because it fits into their worldview.

You will see below that the Earthly perspective of the planets and universe is the same, regardless of whether it’s HELIOCENTRIC or the TYCHONIC GEOCENTRIC model.

“I can construct for you a spherically symmetrical universe with Earth at its center, and you cannot disprove it based on observations. You can only exclude it on philosophical grounds.” George F.R. Ellis

Scientific proofs for the GEOCENTRIC earth were published in 2013, and then the GEOCENTRIC earth documentary movie called The Principle came out in 2014. Here’s a link to videos from the producers of The Principle which give more explanations.

After that, information about the flat earth skyrocketed on YouTube and Facebook; because the enemy wanted to cause people to reject anyone who believes in the GEOCENTRIC earth.

The enemy has created a false dichotomy by positioning the debate as ‘heliocentric globe earth vs. flat earth’; but there is another option that has been hidden by the enemy, the geocentric GEOCENTRIC GLOBE EARTH.

If you believe that the earth is flat, please know that I’m in agreement with you about the sun not being the center of the universe, and that the Earth is not flying through space.

You can reject my explanation and click away; but if you’re really searching for truth, and not just seeking to defend a belief, then I pray that you will read this article.

Note: the point of this page is to provide basic information about the geocentric universe.

My goal is not to answer every question and/or overcome every objection. If you’re searching for truth, then read this summary, and then read the below book and judge for yourself; for only in getting the full explanation can you make a right judgment.

I also provide Bible verses which show that the sun is moving around the earth, so that by the dual witness of scientific evidence and Scripture we can see that the earth is geocentric”.

The Hidden Option Of The Geocentric Globe Earth

Now, all I want is the TRUTH…and I will dive deep into all of the above…but this is going to take time.

So I said to myself… “SELF post this on TBP…Surely (I apologize for calling you Surely) others will have some insights”.

1. TLPTB (L=Luciferians) says Heliocentric

2. The Opposition says Flat Earth

3. This body of evidence says Geocentric.

I have never studied GEOCENTRIC and look forward to it!

No Name Buddy,

At this point I don’t know what it is because it is going to take time and many deep dives to come to any knowledge based conclusions as I have not studied most of Wilcoxson’s material yet, who I highly respect. He has put up much to investigate and consider…and I will give it a fair review. I posted it hoping others have reviewed it and was curious what they thought?

Beside the free PDF I have ordered 3 copies of the hard copy from Amazon to give to two close friends in my Tribe (only $10 a copy as the author told me he priced it as low as he could). They are deep divers also, and both know everything from NASA is a bold face Illuminati/Mason/Government/Media lie!

Thank you for the needle warning…I am not getting the tetanus jab…who knows what is in it from the VA! They have been trying to poison me with four different jabs with zero success. Constant pressure to no avail.

This is how I treated the puncture wound:

Dabbed on lots of Iodine then smeared on some Rawleigh Antiseptic Salve:

Then sprinkled on some Polvos Sulpha powder that clings to the Rawleigh Antiseptic Salve:

I re-applied and changed the bandage a couple three time a day. Seems to have healed fine.

I use the three above for all minor wounds, combined they have worked well for me.

Anyway, this is intriging and I will do what I always do RESEARCH with an open mind and an earnest attitude to find the TRUTH.

Mark,

I read this book pretty early on in my introduction to this subject. While some of Mr. Nikao’s arguments are compelling, the thrust of his argumentation revolves around what is his own personal eisegesis on what the “circle of the earth” actually means. What I’ve often found in these Scriptural “debunks” of FE is that the author will attack Nathan Roberts’ admittedly shaky list of verses: Roberts was a newly saved Christian when he published his book on this subject and does make some mistakes.

Nikao’s main contention though, one wholly without Scripture to substantiate it, is that the circle of the Earth is in fact the 12 Zodiacal constellations. Nikao’s website has a large section about FE I’ve perused, but when I started looking up many of his flat earth “debunks”, I found that none of his debunks actually debunk anything since the phenomenon could work the same on a globe or plane model when properly understood.

He does make some good points in regards to certain topics in Scripture, in particular the four corner verses being symbolic in nature. Personally, I’ve yet to see any anti-FE Biblical scholar address the Psalms that state the waters above are not done away with during the Flood, but exist in perpetuity (Psalm 148); or a host of other scriptures that describe the Firmament with specific physical properties, in a specific location, with the stars and the Sun and Moon moving inside of it.

Wilson’s cited refutation of optical laser experiments is also built upon fallacious claims about refraction, something I’ve studied quite in depth since I did my own laser curvature experiment and found no curvature whatsoever over Tampa Bay.

https://dfreality.substack.com/p/bc-vi-what-is-the-circle-of-the-earth

Properly conducted laser tests over a sufficiently long distance simply obliterates the myth of curvature, refraction can not explain how we see too far without invoking physical properties of light that have never once been demonstrated in real world conditions (I.e. that light moving through the air would refract down over the curve, as opposed to refracting upwards, which is what it actually does.)

Just my two cents, God bless your spring time endeavors my friend.

Grunge Buddy,

A response like this is exactly why I posted the above…thank you! I will print down your comment and keep it in the books (when they get here) and also give it to my two buddies.

This is going to take me time, and considering the state of the country I have to be careful with that precious commodity…TSHTF has to be sooner rather than later.

I enjoy TBP and get much from it…but I’m a bit overwhelmed currently with so many tasks getting the farm/compound ready for whatever is coming…whenever it finally hits my Shire.

I hope Frodo gets that dam ring back into Mordor!

I am extremely intrigued by many of the components of what Wilcoxson has researched on this subject and so many others…especially many prophecies. I am mining his sight as well, it is rich and deep.

Like many I do not believe any of the NASA 666 maff…or almost anything that they say or do…or say they did, so there is that.

I’m sitting here typing and Pepper the Wonder Dog is popping up begging me go outside…so after I answer my buddy RiNS its fetch in the pasture time!

Thanks again!
