    Oh, for goodness sake - everyone knows the Nile rises in mountains and it's the weight of the water coming downhill that pushes the river northwards.

    No, no... You haven't forgotten have you? I have it on good authoroty that the Earth is fixed in space, so how could it tip over?

    Just a reminder that I am smarter than you all.

    And to Musicology: Indeed. Isn't our ignorance just astounding?

    You know Kevin, I just don't know how we've gotten this far! Golly. Humans are just so dumb. If they'd just assess everything by how it looks, we'd be in another galaxy by now! We're hindering ourselves so much its hard to believe we're not extinct already.

    Why don't you clever guys answer my questions?
    Where does the water go when it falls off the edge of the world?
    And, why does it fall?
    Voices mysterious far and near,
    Sound of the wind and sound of the sea,
    Are calling and whispering in my ear,
    Whifflingpin! Why stayest thou here?

    Shush, you medieval dogmatist! Just take a picture of it and it'll be SO obvious. I'd tell you but you obviously have been educated by those stupid scientists and idiotic mathematicians and obviously don't have the mental capacity to understand my words of ingenuity. LOL






    LOL

    I explained to my two and a half year old that the world was flat and he BELIEVED ME. IT MADE COMPLETE SENSE TO HIM!!

    Obviously the world is flat if even a 2 1/2 year old can understand that it is!!

    As an archaeologist with some geological interest i've been preaching the flatness of this world for years! And that John Donne had it wrong. Its not "the round earths imagined corners" at all! Its " the flat earths imagined roundness!"

    The water that falls off the edge is sucked up into the sky by the vortex caused by the universe orbiting the earth at immense speed.

    How do you think it rains?
    Go to work, get married, have some kids, pay your taxes, pay your bills, watch your tv, follow fashion, act normal, obey the law and repeat after me: "I am free."

    You are officially a genius!
    "I should only believe in a God that would know how to dance. And when I saw my devil, I found him serious, thorough, profound, solemn: he was the spirit of gravity- through him all things fall. Not by wrath, but by laughter, do we slay. Come, let us slay the spirit of gravity!" - Nietzsche

    But why does it get sucked up downwards?

    So, seeing as the world is flat, if I dig a really deep hole, where will end up?
    For I have known them all already, known them all:
    Have known the evenings, mornings, afternoons,
    I have measured out my life with coffee spoons;
    I know the voices dying with a dying fall
    Beneath the music from a farther room.

    So how should I presume?
    Eliot
