>>15900550Something as simple as the sun disappearing beneath the horizion is something this model cannot explain.
Take a coin, hold it between two fingers, hold it upright close to a table.put your eyes on the table's level. Now, drag the coin away. The coin will get smaller, as opposed to how the sun seems to get bigger while setting, and no matter how far away you get it, even if it becomes smaller then a pin prick, the coin won't vanish like the sun does. The sun in the flat earth model operates on the same principles as the coin. So from near Rome, looking west to the sea, why do I see the sun disappear progressively below the horizon? If the earth were flat, the sun just moves away. Logic has it, being an object beneath the firmament, it should get smaller, perhaps even go so far away it disappears, but it won't ever set progressively beneath the horizion.
Also, the idea an edge exists is stupid. You can book tickets to both poles at times of the year, they are pricey but you can.
