@Michael Leigh but if the Earth is flat what happens at the edges of the Earth? Does the water fall off like in the Icelandic sagas?

"Before we understand science, it is natural to believe that God created the universe. But now science offers a more convincing explanation. What I meant by 'we would know the mind of God' is, we would know everything that God would know, if there were a God, which there isn't. I'm an atheist." Stephen Hawking, dixit.
God is a matter that should only affect our intimate convictions. The really important, under my point of view, is that Christopher lives in a Country where Justice is almost non existent, and Mexico is not the only one, the list is too long and it should worry us all. Remember Bertolt Brecht poem?. Apparently, it's far more important to discuss about the angel's sex than the situation of distress that Christopher has to front after a violent attack that badly injured him.
Christopher, if you don't want to give up, you can go to "Amnistía Internacional México" and ask for advice. My own Country is not an example of a real democracy (ultra Catholics are in the Government), despite being a member of EU, human rights are in danger, so I empathise with Christopher and I really hope that he can get the justice that every single human being deserves. Let's don't mix Reason with Faith, they are antagonistic, which means that they do not work well together and can cause additional side effects.
Be well, Christopher, and be strong and move forward.

@Michael Leigh
I believe in accepting all those with emotional or physical pain. I also do not place any importance to disagree with you or anyone here, unless they are unable to understand emotional and physical pain. You understand human conditions so if you feel that the world if flat, that's find with me.

I love conspiracy theories.
As far as "God" goes I'm not sure?? I believe in something bigger than us, if anything.... I'll get to see the people I've lost again. Faith can be such a powerful tool for people, helping them through hard times, guiding them.
That being said, faith/religion causes so much hurt, war, death, restricts people to live their lives and in my personal experience down right bigotry. My issue is how people (not everybody) who preach about love and understanding and a God that loves all, then turn around and because you don't fit in with their ideals/beliefs scold you. It's so hypocritical it's funny.
I could go on and on and but I won't.

There's so many factors to mine I wouldn't know where to start. Mainly have to sue myself I think. All I can hope for now is help and strength to stand up and fight
Getting back on topic... To the OP, let it go. Festering and harbouring anger will eat you up. It would be hard to prove.
And I've never heard of anyone getting Eustachian tube dysfunction after being yelled at.

@Michael Leigh couldn't see any. You could always take a cruise to the end of the earth, video it and upload the footage to YouTube
I have tried to believe in God, but I cannot. I have seen how belief in God can be such a comfort to people in their times of need. Their suffering is more tolerable because they believe they will be rewarded in heaven. They feel less alone in a hostile world. I thought if I went through the motions of religion, I would gradually build up belief. A "fake it til you make it" approach. But I just couldn't make myself believe no matter how hard I tried.
I don't understand this belief in a flat earth. Not trying to argue or mock.
I understand belief in God (even though I am unable to believe) because there is no proof of God's nonexistence. There's logical proof, but no empirical proof, and logical proof doesn't have the same undeniable quality that empirical proof has.
But there is empirical proof that the earth is a globe. We have photographs taken from space. Here is a cool interactive website I found. Not proof, just a cool website.
https://www.echalk.co.uk/Science/physics/solarSystem/InteractiveEarth/interactiveEarth.html
I did look at a flat earth video that said the photos could be faked, but even if that were the case, we know that when it's daylight in the USA it's night in Australia and that can't be faked.
There is no definite proof that the earth is a globe. Those pictures you have are composite photos which are made up. I was of the same belief that we live on a spinning ball but now have my doubts and believe we have been told lies to hide a bigger truth. Go to youtube and take your time to watch the videos and listen to the discussions....

I'll admit, it's unlikely that I could believe such a theory, but it is interesting. I suppose what's most interesting about it is wondering why the powers that be would want to convince us the earth is a globe if it isn't.

@SugarMagnolia To say that the earth is flat is used in a derogatory sense to mean anyone who holds ridiculously antiquated views. An example would be that one with tinnitus needs to wear noise blocking headphones all the time because all sound is bad.

But... Michael Leigh, that is precisely the model that you don't practice yourself. You don't have an open mind. At all. Anything that challenges your deluded belief system just gets rejected. Be it tinnitus or some other topic, like yeah, the flat Earth stuff. If anything, you are probably the most thick-headed stubborn mule this forum has ever had. Recently someone wrote the following about you in a post that has since been deleted:
Maybe you should take note. But I would guess with +99% certainty that you won't.
Considering that religion, at least Christian, is based on the fear of God (see the story of Job) or on "turning the other cheek" could be considered that what happens to us is a test of God ... So, definitely God can exist and you can be suffering. Even it is probable that according to the religion you should forgive the person who hurt your ear
I clarify that I am not a great believer, at least I do not believe in institutionalized religion.
I understand your point, I just wanted to emphasize that it seems contradictory

As sad as it is to see someone who still believes in literal lies like the world is flat, the good news is that these nutty religious types are all on the way out. Most guys and girls in my age bracket are really wary of dating anyone who is religious because they know they're going to be forced to deal with all the craziness that comes with that sort of mindset. Just like the tribal religions, Egyptian religions, Greek/Roman gods/mythology, we are already seeing a massive exodus from the major religions of Islam/Christianity/Judiasm just like those others. Soon they'll be in the mythology books where they belong.

You can believe it @Agrajag364 I'm having quite a relaxing time living by the sea. However, I look considerably younger than @threefirefour's depiction of me as @glynis will hopefully confirm without giving too much away, as I prefer to remain incognito. She is the only person to see me online...
