Welcome to the Flat Earth Society, and thank 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" background, the flat earth 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 in the forums, as it may contain the answers to the questions on your mind.

Some of the questions here have multiple answers due to differing views of flat earth theory among some of our members.
