I've been saying it's a conspiracy for a long time now. G.L.O.W. is a powerful organization backed by the CIA, and both have vested interests in the Round Earth Myth (REM, also a type of sleep.)

If they had a social gospel in the days of the prodigal son, somebody would have given him a bed and a sandwich and he never would have gone home.

Benefits? What benefits? Nobody told me about any benefits. :evil:

So...am I to understand that you didn't receive the free trip to Israel with El Al? Or the two weeks at the resort at Ein Gedi? Or the personal guided tour of Masada? And the guided tour of Yad Vashem? Or the 2 week stay at the Jerusalem Marriott? The guided tour of the Dome of the Rock?

Shucks...I guess Moderators are excluded from these benefits.

I sure hope i never meet a genuine flat earther...that would drive me nuts that they wouldnt believe something that they can go out and prove to themselves, right in front of their face. I'm flabergasted by some of the things people will believe.

Well now Rick everyone knows that the earth is not absolutely flat... anymore... because it is relaxing a bit where it rides on the back of the top turtle and we all know that turtle backs are a bit hemispherical right? ;) the flat earth is evolving....
It is as if some Christians sit there and wait for the smallest thing that they can dispute and then jump onto it...
The Bible says that we were each given an interpretation – this gift of interpretation is not there so we can run each other into the ground. It is there for our MUTUAL edification.

You'd better hope that's Palestine, Texas.

It was Saudi Airlines. They don't recognize Israel, as a nation. Sorry for the confusion. Still says Jerusalem though. y#-o

Well, there are a whole lot of flat earthers down in Florida! And I can see why: when you describe the top of your state's highest "mountain" as having a "summit" of 345 feet :lol: - well, yeah, I can see why they believe in a flat earth. :)

What will you be doing in Texas? Is the Department of Corrections transfering you to a penitentiary there for your trial?
