Magellan and his crew must have faced their voyage, too lol. Starting a maritime tradition involving the crew of every ship to have claimed to have circumnavigated the globe since. A tradition emulated first in the aviation world here on Earth and then, finally by astronauts lol He clearly has no idea how the GPS system works. He should stick to music.

Seriously, I have a friend who believes the earth is 6,000 years old. Seriously. She didn't quite finish college but was raised as a Seventh Day Adventist. When I tried to discuss this belief with her, she said she didn't want to discussit, that it was what she believed. Oh, well.

What does your friend's not quite finishing college have anything to do with it? Most Flat Earthers in the developed world finished college.

Prove the earth isn't 6000 years old. Were you around then to calibrate that instruments are measuring what you only believe was a steady rate of Carbon-14 decay throughout history?

There are people who actually think tails of comets that are only a few miles in girth, that have been measured at 100 million miles long are comprised of enough of their own cast off microscopic debris to even remotely account for that visibility.

There are scientists who think that untold trillions of pounds of dinosaur flesh and palm fronds were subducted several miles underneath the floor of the Gulf of Mexico against astronomical PSI, before first putrefying back into the upper layer of topsoil with bacteria and worms all over them.

I have enjoyed B.o.B.'s music since he became famous with Bruno Mars in this :



He is far from a dumb rapper in any capacity if you listen to his work. I'm not sure why he thinks the Earth is flat though.

It is easy to feign intelligence in a song. Saying something like this multiple times tells us the truth.
