Oh look, one of the brainwashed trolls is back with more assumptions.

Anybody with working eyes can see that the sun doesn't circle above us. No brain washing required.

Its just not that easy. Why can we see across lake michigan 50 miles and still see Chicago? On a ball thats impossible, and locals say you can see it often so it ain't no mirage.

Yes, change the subject when your model is proven to be wrong. Tht will make it not wrong.... :-D

Gee, I wonder why I can't see that everyday...hmmm....must put on my critical thinking skillz cap. The truth is that it is a mirage, otherwise you would see it every day.

Here is another perspective on your mirage. The top part was taken from close by, the bottom is your mirage. If you look at tthe Sears tower in the real picture, you will see how short the top skinny part is. (Note how the bottom half of the city is missing in your mirage.) In the mirage picture on the bottom, you can see how the short skinny part is stretched to half of the size of the building. So yes, a mirage.

But that literally has nothing to do with the fact that everyone with a set of working eyes can see the sun does not circle above us.

If you get down on the ground on a football field on one goal line and look across the field you will see that as a person walks away from you that they "disappear" from the legs up, so what that photo you attached is REALLY showing is perspective. Watch the perspectrive video below at 14:37 or so for a few minutes, it shows hows our perspective works in real life and AGREES with your photo of chicago, it would be VERY STRANGE indeed if we saw all of chicago from 50 miles because that is NOT how our eyes work. The photo you sent actually SUPPORTS flat earth. Additionally the photo you attached is obviously from a higher angle but the idea is correct. Anyway with a ball earth formula (createdby ball earthers) 8 inches per mile squared, there should about 1600 feet of curvature, we should ONLY SEE the tippy top of the sears tower and not see ANY other buildings at all. I am not making this stuff up PLEASE look and I really like you challenging my evidence because if it is weak or wrong I will STOP using it 100%, I did NOT wake up one day and say "Oh!, todays the day I want to be considered an idiot by believing the earth is flat, it was the evidence and thre is lots of it, BUT you have to be willing to ACCEPT the best evidence. Please watch that video and there are more on perspective also, just beware there is tons of disinformation that will lead you down the wrong path, I have led down down tons of dead ends which wasted my time. Thanks for your thoughts, tell me what you think of this perspective evidence and please try to be fair which explanation explains what we are seeing better and why.
PEACE

Did you know that football fields are not flat? They are highest in the middle of the field, sloping downwards towards the out of bounds lines on both sides. This is for water drainage during inclement weather.

From Sports field management:
Football fields should have at least a 1-2% slope. The highest point is usually about 10-18” above the lowest point on the field. Soccer fields made of native soil typically are built with a minimum of 1½ % slope and should never be flat. If the fields have underground drainage the slope should be at least 1%.

So people starting to disappear from the bottom up as the walk away on a football field is EXACTLY because the field is curved. LOL, you are proving my point for me!

The picture I showed does not in the least support a flat earth. What it supports is that your picture is a mirage.

And again, this has nothing to do with the fact that anyone with working eyes can see that the sun does not circle above us. But please, try to misdirect again.

It doesn't have to be a football field just read up on PERSPECTIVE or WATCH the video I attached. How do YOU KNOW personally that the sun doesn't circle above us, have you done experiments or are you just regurgitating what you were TOLD? Pretty sure it is the latter. This shit is hard to accept so I have no problem with you being skeptical but be honest with yourself, without NASA, how would you KNOW the earth is a BALL Spinning 1,000 mph at the equator?

Also why did you ignore that on a ball earth we should only even see the the tippy top of the sears tower and NOTHING ELSE? Because that is IMPOSSIBLE on a ball.

Rob Skiba videos the building while boating across Lake Michigan-

I personally know that the sun doesn't circle above us for the simple and very observable fact that the sun travels across the sky in a straight line. Every day. All the time. No exceptions. This is only possible if the sun is relatively stationary and we are spinning on a sphere.

If we were standing on a flat earth with the sun circling above us, the sun would have to describe a half circle above us as it crosses the sky. And then disappear because of...reasons. It would follow a curved path. But it doesn't. Ever. Not once.

And yes, the earth is rotating at 1 revolution per 24 hours. This can be observed every day. With this knowledge we can compare it to the circumference of the earth of 24,900 miles which has been calculated long before any space agency existed. This gives us slightly over 1000 mph. And that is how we get 1000 mph without NASA. Ta Dah!

I did not ignore the fact that the Chicago skyline should be hidden. That is why what was shown is a mirage. You can see how the tops of the buildings and antennas of the various building were stretched way out. It is an atmospheric effect. There is a thing called refraction. It is a real effect. Put light through a prism for a home experiment. The amount of refraction needed for the Chicago skyline to be visible from Michigan has been calculated to be 0.12 degrees. So...not a lot. Which sounds right, because different densities of air can't bend light very much because air has low density.

Rob Skiba? Please...he makes my brain want to vomit.

Also if you read CAREFULLY it says there SHOULD BE, NOT there IS. Open your mind, imagine you are looking for evidence that supports flat earth rather than refutes flat earth, this shit is not easy, we have been brainwashed since a very young age.

Better to be skeptical. Don't trust, verify.

Also regarding not seeing chicago everyday, think FOG.... If you drive on a foggy day do you think it will be that way forever? Fog is just an extreme example of ATMOSPHERE and usually there is so much water in the atmosphere you cannot see chicago but often you can. Thats why when you are in an airplane up high in THIN atmosphere you can see further than when you are closer to see level.
