Do you think the Earth is Round or flat?

[punkslime]

This is absurd. If this is a legitimate debate then I don’t think this is the site for me. I heard Americans are not very bright but damn.

Now you are making me hungry! No wonder why they want us to think it's round.

Round.

science says it is and there is pics soooo

Now we're believing science? Can we all say 'photo shopped?'.

I'll take that back, I forgot that there isn't a north pole, so it's a pear:

May I suggest a humor transplant? Wait, I doubt that it would take.

I'm trying to figure out how to set someone to ignore. With a name like that, you know he has to be a troll.

Wait, some people actually think the earth is round? OMG!

Only people with common sense...very small percentage of the population apparently

Dust, water vapour and pollution in the air will rarely let you see more than 20 kilometres (12 miles), even on a clear day. Often, the curvature of the Earth gets in the way first. For example, at sea level, the horizon is only 4.8 kilometres (2.9 miles) away. On the top of Mt Everest, you could theoretically see for 339 kilometres (211 miles), but in practice clouds get in the way. For a truly unobstructed view, though, look up. On a clear night, you can see the Andromeda galaxy with the naked eye, which is 2.5 million light years away – that’s 24 quintillion kilometres (15 quintillion miles), in case you were wondering.

The paragraph above is something I found on line. If you can actually see this far then how come when you are standing on a beach and look out to sea, you can only see about 3 miles if it is clear? Shouldn't you be able to see across the whole ocean if it was clear enough? The reason you can't see more than about 3 miles is because of a world which is pretty close to round. Also if the world is flat then why isn't the moon and the other planets flat as well? I definitely think the world is round. This is my thought on it
