Sawdust_Molly: The Shape of the Earth Disregarding the dome, the essential flatness of the earth's surface is required by verses like Daniel 4:10-11. In Daniel, the king “saw a tree of great height at the centre of the earth...reaching with its top to the sky and visible to the earth's farthest bounds.” If the earth were flat, a sufficiently tall tree would be visible to “the earth's farthest bounds,” but this is impossible on a spherical earth. Likewise, in describing the temptation of Jesus by Satan, Matthew 4:8 says, “Once again, the devil took him to a very high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world in their glory.” Obviously, this would be possible only if the earth were flat. The same is true of Revelation 1:7: “Behold, he is coming with the clouds! Every eye shall see him...”
Flat, is two dimensions.
If the earth was flat, there wouldn't be anything high on it.
The great height, tall tree, and high mountain, you've based your argument on, can't exist on a flat earth.

Funny papers are flat. Cartoons on tv are flat.
The screen you're looking at is flat.
The things that appear as verticle on your screen, and in the funny papers, are really just flat, and horizontal.
Nothing you see on your screen is three dimensional.
Nothing in your argument stands up either.
I told you to place a flat piece of paper on a flat table, and measure it....
What's the difference between the highest and lowest parts of the paper...?
They equal the highest mountain in your hypothesis: 0 inches.

It's not my hypothesis, but from scientists who have studied the Bible and have developed a hypothesis about it. They claim that at the time of Christ, everyone thought the earth was flat.

Just because a guy wears a white lab coat, doesn't make him a scientist.
Science is based on, Science Method. There are many things needed to establish a scientific theory, which still don't qualify it as a fact.
What you posted is superstitions, not science.
Minnesota was mined for copper, by Europeans, long before Christ was born.
New Zealand was inhabited by people from Persia, before Christ was born.
Without any proof nobody before Christ knew the earth was round...
That's not even a theory. It's an unproven hypothesis.
I just posted a page load of scientists, telling us, the earth isn't flat.

Watch this page Edit This article is about the fact that the Earth is spherical and its history. For the size and shape of the Earth in geodesy, see Figure of the Earth. For the measurement, see Earth's circumference.
Medieval artistic representation of a spherical Earth – with compartments representing earth, air, and water (c. 1400) The earliest reliably documented mention of the spherical Earth concept dates from around the 6th century BC when it appeared in ancient Greek philosophy, but remained a matter of speculation until the 3rd century BC, when Hellenistic astronomy established the spherical shape of the Earth as a physical given and calculated Earth's circumference.
The two examples I just posted, were based on the ignorant assumption, that we're just getting better and better... and deny the fact that our earth was inhabited by people with technologies we can't duplicate.
The people who deny older datings for the knowledge of a round earth, can't duplicate the theories they base those late dates on.

Lots of people claim to be scientists.
The scientists who I used to support my point, were: Neil deGrasse, Carl Sagan, and Bill Nye.
pedro27: God made us and made a woman from a mans rib. And a woman and man have to be joined back together.
its ….what god joined together let no man pull apart. NOT what god pulled apart let man join together.
god made man from the dust of the ground , male n female made he them. :)
considering the earth was in existence before all the living hosts ,,,obviously everything came from the earth. plants, animals mankind etc. so whether one wants to consider the creation story or evolution ,,,,it comes down to the same thing. we came out of the earth .
nb....also we will go back to it. ashes to ashes n dust to dust.
from what I make of that is that there is only man, in the sense that man n woman come under that same heading. = man. therefore , there is nothing to be joined back together in that sense anyway.
a different kind of joining may have to do with marriage . however that is not for all, as some may marry and some may stay single for various reasons as bible says.
the bible was never written for all men to understand, as it states.
god made the earth , n so its hosts , n also the heavens...planets etc.
in the beginning the spirit of god hovered over the darkness of the deep....from there he commanded stuff into existence . earth n hosts n heavens.
at the moment humans are messing about up in the heavens ,,,rockets n junk strewn all over, trying to exert control there. = the tower of babel ….mod times.
No, both from the earth but the woman would not be beneath man so the creator chose to make her equal to man. I think man became life when women gave birth to him. jmho

Disregarding the dome, the essential flatness of the earth's surface is required by verses like Daniel 4:10-11. In Daniel, the king “saw a tree of great height at the centre of the earth...reaching with its top to the sky and visible to the earth's farthest bounds.” If the earth were flat, a sufficiently tall tree would be visible to “the earth's farthest bounds,” but this is impossible on a spherical earth. Likewise, in describing the temptation of Jesus by Satan, Matthew 4:8 says, “Once again, the devil took him to a very high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world in their glory.” Obviously, this would be possible only if the earth were flat. The same is true of Revelation 1:7: “Behold, he is coming with the clouds! Every eye shall see him...”
If the earth was flat, there wouldn't be anything high on it.
The great height, tall tree, and high mountain, you've based your argument on, can't exist on a flat earth.
