RE: The final intractable problem for the Flat Earthers...24-hour sun at the South Pole.

No, the bible can't be edited when things are found to be wrong. Why would you claim that? My point is that the bible claims to be true, but has been found false, while science never claimed to be true, only to be the best possible current understanding, always changing as new info comes in.

I'm not sure what the second half of your comment was about, sorry.

A great book on the topic is by Carl Sagan, called "The Demon-Haunted World". I just finished Orwell's '1984', and next I'm going to re-read the above. Carl foresaw this when he wrote it in the 90s, pretty much right down to the conversation we're having now. :(

I don’t think a book can claim itself to be true, only the people selling it can do that.

The bible based on my understanding has been edited & translated & massaged to fit the times or propaganda needs of the individual publisher many times over

The second 1/2 of my comment was really meant to ask if science should be closed or open minded?

& should we as individuals be closed or open minded about our own personal science?

I don't know, but what I do know is you aren't serious about getting to the bottom of this, and I only have so much time in a day.

Was definitely serious, just trying to think logically about things.

Wouldn’t set out to waste your time or mine 👍
