Welcome to the Flat Earth Society, and hank you for taking the time to go through this FAQ. It was created in light of the realization that for someone with a "round-Earth" (RE) background, the FE theory would appear at first glance to have some glaring holes. This thread is designed to answer some of the questions that many Round Earthers raise when they first arrive. Please check this page before making your first threads, as it may contain the answers to the questions on your mind.

This FAQ contains multiple answers for most questions. The reason for this is that there are many views of Flat Earth Theory. As one can imagine, it is quite difficult to obtain grants for Flat Earth Research. This means that it is nigh on impossible to perform the expensive and complicated experiments which would be necessary to determine which beliefs are correct. We therefore are content to find multiple possibilities and simply prove that they are possible.

Is this site a joke?

This site is not a joke. We are actively promoting the Flat Earth movement worldwide. There are, admittedly, several non-serious Flat Earth posters, but they are fairly easy to identify.

What evidence do you have?

What causes day and night cycles?

Why doesn't gravity pull the earth into a spherical shape?

Why can people circumnavigate the Earth if it is flat, and why doesn't water just fall off of the edge?

Is Flat Earth Theory connected to a religion?

People have been into space. How have they not discovered that the Earth is flat?

There are many pictures on the internet depicting the Earth as being round. Why do these not disprove Flat Earth Theory?
