Something (well, one thing of many, many) I don't understand about the flat earth idea is how sunrise works.
If the sun is setting in one place on the globe, then it is rising in another on the other side.
If the earth is flat, how could this possibly be? Do they posit two suns, so when one is setting in the west, the other is rising in the east? Or does the sun suddenly speed up as it travels under the earth, so as to be able to rise quickly in the east?

thewholesoul is still noticeably absent. Is it possible he has no experimental evidence? That surely can't be, because that would be contrary to his understanding of science and his standards of evidence, and would thus disprove his own beliefs.

Yoo hoo! Whole soul!! Over here!!!!
