Hi guys, Many years ago I got into an argument in here with people. I argued that space goes on forever and the Earth is a ball ect.... At the time I had no actual evidence. Now I KNOW BETTER. This world is not what we have been told.

You'd make allowance for skepticism if your evidence is questionable?

I forget where I heard it from, but there was a Zen buddhist trying to explain to a man what his practice was, or what the world was or something, and he told the man, "what is beyond your eyes" and he said, "the trees". Then he asked him, "what is beyond the trees", and he replied "the fields". Then he asked what was beyond the fields, and he said "the hills". And he asked what was beyond the hills, and he said "the sky". And he finally asked, "what is beyond the sky", and the man was stumped and didn't know the answer, and the monk told him, "beyond the skies is your own consciousness". It's a poor rendition by me but I feel it gets a point across.
Interesting little story that your question made me think of...

3-Dimensions still refer to 3 spatial axes, say, X, Y, & Z, with 2 Dimensions lying in a plane and a third Dimension perpendicular to the plane while the 4th Dimension is the temporal Dimension. Extension is space requires duration in time. No, flat Earthers say the planet Earth is a disk not a sphere even though the other planets are spheres. Obviously this is madness.

So Flat Earthers think the Earth is Flat because the time-dimension we live in is flat?
Hmmmmm, an interesting hypothesis

I don't know WHY the delusion has arisen en masse, but they seem to treat their own perception of the horizon, even from a jet as the edge of a plane. Some have said that there is a circular mountain range around the edge of the disc which keeps the oceans from 'falling' off the disc. There is no physical justification for a flat earth of course. It seems a conflation of some mythology like Midgard in Scandinavian myth without the World Tree Yggdrasil growing through and through a flat earth with Valhalla (Heaven) above and the Underworld among its roots. Some Christians still imagine something similar sans a World Axis, but Hell is in the volcanic center of earth and Heaven has been conflated with 'the heavens' above the 'dome' of the sky. This too is delusional but has been normalized.
The dimension of time is not 'flat,' nor does it possess any spatial aspect. Time seems to move linearly (except for those 'eddies' in the flow that double-back bringing some people visions of the future as that time stream travels back circularly like vortices in fast moving rivers). 'People' in Flatland might be flat (since they live in 2 dimensions according to the book), but only fictional Dr. Quantum has ever met them.

Oh no Markos you're gonna wreck the whole thread confusing us with flatlanders vs. flat-earthers LOL
The flatlanders analogy I think can help explain a lot of things, flat-earthers on the other hand, I'm not so sure...
