Yes, I realize. That is why I have stopped listening to the Beatles and almost all rock. So it might be safer to stop listening to this Gainsbourg as well.

ifers.boards.net/post/5921/threadCome on people, you don't need to QUOTE everything on the past comment, you just need the gist of whats being said. After all - I make 500 changes >:) 500 edits? Sounds like Acenci ;) ifers.boards.net/post/5922/threadI certainly hope that when I die, I don't merge into the same being as Acenci. :D The moist poignant thing you have ever written. Yeah... thanks, Lizard and Harrison, as usual. However, this is not going to be enough anymore. Our members are demotivated and their initial rage for being banned is fading. As their anger fades, they are also less motivated in participating here, since a big factor was that we were upset for how you treated us. So, to succeed here, we're going to need more help from you. From now on don't just write "acenci", but use this string: You know there's a special place waiting for you here, when you will be banned, too. After all the "work" you've been doing for Eric (verbally abusing people), once Eric will ban you, you will need a lot of emotional support from us, so while you're still at IFERS, try to help us survive here, in your future home. Do what you've been doing, but step it up. Ban more freethinkers, direct them here, and promote us more effectively. Think about your future.

That's right. They've got freedom of speech in this field (as far as verbal abuse, Eric is quite tolerant), so they certainly can come up with more creative ideas. We are OK with any insults, as long as they talk about us, because right now things are not looking very good for us. We didn't hold true to our "mutual respect" value, and as a consequence we lost a few members.

Unbelievable, @haritz turned out to be a freethinker... ifers.boards.net/post/5965/threadAre you promoting godlikeproductions.com or the fake stories of Sasquatch ? Sasquatch is an early 20th century word: Salish sésq῾əc . 1929??? BIG FOOT is an easy HOAX to reproduce. BIG TURD is right out. schpankme, The mere act of linking a site promotes it. If you are implying that my primary or substantial motivation for making this comment was to promote the site, than that is incorrect. Promoting fake stories of sasquatch? Perhaps you could answer that question yourself if you read the link before screaming in denunciation of it. Sure, sasquatch might be a twentieth-century word.. "Turd" was also coined in the twentieth century. Would you say that feces did not exist before the twentieth century? Now, you claim that Sasquatches are fake...yet you don't bother to answer my questions in the private messages to you, minutes after you made the above post, that were made with the intent to allow you to privately reconsider...So here they are again, in case you missed them: ____________________ 1. "Are you absolutely sure that Sasquatches are a hoax?" 2. "Certainly, it can easily be hoaxed, and many sightings are likely hoaxes...how are you sure that ALL are hoaxes? Records of Yeti sightings go back centuries in the Himalayas... p.s.- Your elimination of disinfo is in general appreciated, though." 3. "p.p.s.- You attack the planetruth's "breatharian" point...how are YOU, personally ABSOLUTELY sure that breatharianism is always bullshit? Can you personally prove that not one man or woman exists over extended periods who does not take in physical nourishment? Have you ever made a prolonged visit to a monastery or lamasery, in India/Himalayas or otherwise?" 4. "In another reply to "planetruth", you write "There is no Natural Law...". Are there no laws of physics, chemistry, biology? This does not refer to only immutable laws, for as in commerce, laws are bendable at times... Do you wish not to correspond in private, where your personal credibility is not attacked? Would you prefer your deficiencies be exposed on the forum for all to see?" ____________________ However, instead of me continuing to scroll through the next couple of pages of your comments to dismantle your assertions, let's stick to the Sasquatch issue. There have been hundreds if not thousands of sightings and interactions with these creatures, dating back centuries if not millennia, spanning continents. Here are five books that give detailed overviews of these accounts: www.amazon.com/Forest-Friends-The-Night-Discovery/dp/1506101658/ref=pd_cp_b_1?ie=UTF8&refRID=00QEKZHQGP5A12P2S476www.amazon.com/Bigfoot-True-Story-Apes-America/dp/0743469755/ref=pd_cp_b_2?ie=UTF8&refRID=00QEKZHQGP5A12P2S476www.amazon.com/Sasquatch-Legend-Science-Jeff-Meldrum/dp/0765312174/ref=pd_sim_b_15?ie=UTF8&refRID=0CA2J2WEF3MF7K60GSGKwww.amazon.com/Bigfoot-Sasquatch-Evidence-Grover-Krantz/dp/0888394470/ref=pd_sim_b_4?ie=UTF8&refRID=1AEDCCKM2CNX741EM8WFwww.amazon.com/Bigfoot-Casebook-updated-Sightings-Encounters/dp/0937663107/ref=pd_sim_b_8?ie=UTF8&refRID=1AEDCCKM2CNX741EM8WFThough many cases are likely hoaxes, can you prove beyond a reasonable doubt that all are? The burden rests on you... Though it is not typical for me to attack the character of another, especially a stranger such as you, such forbearance cannot be maintained at the expense of a bull-headed and trigger-happy know-it-all overrunning the forum by allowing his inflated self-assuredness, no doubt stemming from his accurate assessment of many topics on this forum, to bleed into the realm of topics well beyond his ken. Perhaps you will reconsider... and begin or resume a civility that seems to be lacking in your last few pages of posts.Well, this is a euphemism. The three die hard fans have been barking at people and verbally abusing them since the start, including @haritz himself: serendipitous.boards.net/post/2810/threadAfter getting us all banned, he actually risks being banned himself because of standing by his own convictions. Unbelievable. There is hope for him. Maybe our banner is affecting their psyche, those words ("free speech and respect") are having an effect on their subconscious: ifers.boards.net/post/5965/threadHey, @haritz, once you get banned, we are waiting for you here, to have respectful discussions, since you will by then understand what it means to be accused of being a shill (which you did to all of us). It means nothing, but it still feels really bad. Don't worry, we forgive you. As long as you can learn mutual respect, you will be welcome here.

ifers.boards.net/post/5976/threadDon't know who this author is Schpankme, or who you are , but the ”idagio' in the background is just bloody typical. Give it a rest. The guy in your vid is a liar. Thanks, @gallette, for fighting their bad manners. I can't believe you're still there, that they didn't ban you yet. Once you'll get banned, don't forget to join us. And while you're still there, direct here our common friend @augustraven, whom I've been unable to reach. Also, someone tell Eric to stop praising Hitler several times per day, because by doing that, he'll send us all the flat earthers here eventually. Unlike in your paranoid thoughts, we are not affiliated with Israel in any way, so it's all useless. You're not spiting us at all. We're just affiliated with freedom of speech and mutual respect, and we didn't like how you treated us.

I think so, too, but I am always trying to divide them. Just in case they're still reading here.
But I don't need much strategy, because they're so aggressive that as long as we stay together, we will beat them, because they are much more aggressive to one another than we are. So my prediction is that they will split, and that, if we stick together, we will beat them.

ifers.boards.net/post/5987/threadwe all know your views when it comes to christianity and the bible keep them to yourself? Surely you have better things to do like telling eskimos to stop eating meat. Go away, every-time I bring people here who Worship Theory, and try to show them Flat Earth; they run into Worshipers of Biblical babel, imbeciles who worship the magical man, all reading the Holy book they just bought. Bunch of morons who kill and eat animals, spreading sickness and disease, because THE HOLY BOOK told you it was the right thing to do. Oh looky here, brutus Birth-day is December 25; how's that for coincidental. Hey brutus,what was your 'member name' the last time you got banned? And every time I seek mature and intelligent information/discussion on the Flat Earth, I run into such nastiness as I'm witnessing here, Schpankme. :( It's attacks like this that deter those with a sincere desire to learn and understand a totally new paradigm (that of a "Flat Earth", which is the thrust of this board, or so I thought) from either speaking up or pursuing the matter further. This is not a condemnation for your opinion, it's disgust for your behavior. I think this time things are really changing. It might go in two directions now: 1) the most likely development I predict is that Eric will not ban @brutus and @messyanic, because he wants traffic, and doesn't want everyone to come here and join against him. The consequence of this, however, is that his 3 die hard fans will lose their position of dominance, and will become a minority, and will have to tone down their posts. They will be overwhelmed by mainstream flat earth thinking, which is overwhelmingly Christian. 2) Eric will start a wave of banning again, and then more people will join us. Provided we hold true to mutual respect. Otherwise this forum doesn't make any sense. Yep. I think lizard, harrison, schpankme will become a minority on the forum, against an overwhelming number of Christians, because Eric doesn't seem to want to ban them anymore: ifers.boards.net/post/5994/threadYou're not here for FLAT EARTH, you want to interject BIBLE BABEL into the conversation; you want to teach Children about Bible Porn. You have self admitted to both these observations. You don't know me, and I don't know you. So how about you speak for you, and let me speak for me. Fair enough? I am now walking away from further discourse with you. In fact, there's only 3 of them against hundreds of users who disagree with them. I think 75% of flat earthers have strong Christian values. IFERS is about to change, if things keep going the way I see them going right now. So basically he banned us for no reason. He might as well apologize to all of us. --------- Here are the latest developments at IFERS regarding this subject I had discussed a few days ago: ifers.boards.net/post/6152/threadWarning For Religious PeopleI wanted to make this post because the amount of religious zealots we're getting on this forum (most of whom turn out to be shills) is getting out of control. This is the International Flat Earth RESEARCH Society, where we are NOT "Anti-Christ" as I've been accused of, but rather Pro-Evidence, Pro-Proof, Pro-Fact, Pro-Reasoning, Pro-Logic, and Pro-Discernment. If you join the forum and start rambling on about your absolute "belief" and "faith" in Jesus, Allah, Bible, Koran etc. you can expect to be banned because I have made this forum for RESEARCH. I'm interested in facts, evidence, corroborating sources - If you have verification from outside your Holy book to substantiate claims made within it, this is acceptable and will be debated based on its faults/merits. However, to come here and pronounce yourself a blind faith Christian and go on trying to convince/convert everyone else will not fly. Saying "Every word in the King James Bible (or any other "Holy" book) is 100% true and from God" is an unproven and unprovable claim made by zealous cult fanatics not researchers. All books are just books, and they were written by people, not God. All religions are just pre-packaged boxes of beliefs which also came from earlier humans, not gods, and they are not evidence/fact-based, empirical or proven in any way. Ancient spiritual texts like the Gita, Bible, Koran etc. should be read with a critical eye, not blindly worshiped on faith alone and toted about as "absolute truth every word from God." Once you "accept as truth every word" that someone else has said, especially someone you've never met who may or may not have ever lived over 2000 years ago, you have given away your intellectual sovereignty. I recommend you retain your intellectual sovereignty, don't "accept as truth every word" written or said by anyone, remain critical and skeptical and continue using your own intuition and discernment. The only reason you would "accept as truth every word" Jesus said is because of the existential THREAT Christianity presents people with, namely, "accept as truth every word" and go to heaven, or don't accept and spend an eternity in hell. As I said in Asbestos Head: Asbestos is very concerned about religion so he tries attending the local God’s Anonymous meetings every week where every weak soul sits in rows, mouth closed, listening to some guy’s interpretation of twelve guy’s interpretations of some guy’s metaphorical teachings from two thousand years ago. He finds this as useful as a hole in the head only more damaging to his brain, so he starts studying theology, philosophy, and the history of metaphysics for himself and finds that it’s this manner of introspection, this questioning of the unanswerable that expands his spiritual awareness and fills him with what some call God’s love, some call peace of mind, and others call crawling from the allegorical cave and seeing the light. For him the light manifests as a series of realizations regarding the nature of knowledge. Mainly that he knows nothing, and neither does anyone else; including priests, mathematicians, scientists, and all other people using God, Numbers or Formulas to magically boost their ideas from subjective interpretations to Objective Truths. Asbestos decides it’s his spiritual responsibility to study the thoughts and beliefs of everyone around him and throughout recorded history, because arbitrarily choosing a church or simply inheriting religion is lazy, limiting, and inconsiderate. It’s lazy because you leave spirituality up to genetics or geography. It’s limiting because you loose faith in anything outside your pre-packaged box of beliefs. And it’s inconsiderate because by choosing any exclusive religion you make the decision that all others are wrong. Even members of the few religions that encourage open practice of other religions are bound to their group identity like poster-children, constantly defending the individuality in their collective faith. But that’s like bragging how modest you are. If you wish a collective relationship with some group’s conception of God, go find the next Holy place, read it’s Holy text, perform some Holy rituals then go home alone feeling like Holy shit, spitting out someone else’s existential excrement. If you wish a personal relationship with God, there’s no religion to follow, no group to join, and no book to read. There’s nothing to do but wander the world ever wondering why, and never decide. Ultimately, any system that gives answers to metaphysical questions is suspect because it grants Truth to things We can’t know through experience. A more educated approach to the unknown is utter agnostic apostasy: accept you don’t know and couldn’t even know you’re right if you knew it. Spiritual questioning is best left unanswered and simply explored throughout Our lives as We all exist in the mystery. Asbestos decides the library is his church. All its texts are holy and worthy of worship. Its eloquent architecture is awe-inspiring. He feels a strong sense of communion with everyone in the building - hundreds of life’s parishioners seeking answers, entertainment, and each other. Coming together, honoring the Authors by reading them, then creating their own holy rituals to revere them: some taking their wisdom and passing it on in dinner discussions, others writing in their own ideas and continuing the scriptures. There is a reason that such things are "blasphemous" and "heretical" to fundamental Christianity because they expose the origins of the spiritual symbology that so many Christians take literally. If people are convinced Jesus, Moses, Mohammed, Buddha or other avatars were historical personages I suggest they spend some time perusing the following articles/videos: Astrotheology Part 1Astrotheology Part 2Astrotheology Part 3Gnosticism, Gnostics, Gnosis and the Jesus MythJesus Christ: Man or Myth?The Bible's Hidden MeaningsJesus Christ the Magic Mushroom Part 1Jesus Christ the Magic Mushroom Part 2Santa Claus the Magic MushroomMushroom MythologiesThe Multi-Faceted Magic MushroomThe Jewish God of the Old Testament is a Psychopath. Psychopaths are always looking for victim-minded co-dependent people who are easy to manipulate and turn into "faithful servants" as Jesus (good cop) and his Father (bad cop) have done with the Bible. Scare the shit out of everyone then promise them eternal heaven if they promise to shut off their critical faculties for the rest of their life. Just blindly believe in every word this big black book says and you'll have all the best things in life/afterlife and none of the terrible things we just scared you with. God just wants us to be Go-od, the D-evil wants us to be Evil, that's all. I guarantee God prefers good non-believers over evil believers any day. Not only that, but a God that gave us individuality, critical faculties and free will surely wants us to use those in determining our metaphysics instead of just having everyone parrot the same book allegedly dropped down from heaven (how many of these God-written books are there anyway?)

The last time he's been online is 18 hours ago. He might have been banned already. His words sound familiar. We were accused the same way. I have a feeling they will cut down on banning users. It seems they are learning more tolerance. But then pretty soon the Christians will overwhelm them. They have to decide if they prefer traffic or groupthink: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GroupthinkIt will be interesting to see how it will evolve.

Yeah? Ah ah... oh, that one wasn't meant on purpose. I really study their case. It's a very interesting example of groupthink. I can't believe all these verbally abused members still haven't clicked on the banner. In some cases, it is so clear that what is missing on that board is what we are trying offer (we have not completely achieved it though): ifers.boards.net/post/6010/thread

ifers.boards.net/post/6036/threadHi Eric, I had a chance to listen to one of your interviews on youtube, it completely blew my mind. Now I came visiting this website to learn more about the Flat Earth Research Society. God bless you man for revealing the truth. Peace Hi Prashant. Welcome. I am pleased that you found Eric and the truth. Why don't you join the forum? I am sure that you will fit in well. He forgot to add "I am sure that you will fit in well... or else!". www.thefreedictionary.com/or+else

ifers.boards.net/post/6080/threadThat book has been responsible for a lot of atrocious shit over the past couple thousand years: Jewish Ritual Murder and PedophiliaConstantine's Christian ConspiracyThe Christian Dark AgesThe Christian Crusades and InquisitionWhat do you think of these articles/links Messyanic? Why do people treat the Torah, the Bible, the Koran, the Gita, the Tao, or any other book as the ultimate source of all truth? I guarantee God finds everyone who does this to be ridiculous and laughs at them for being so black/white simple-minded. If "God" (whatever people conceive that to be) created us with free-will, logic, reason and intuition I'm sure he prefers us to use these tools in figuring out this reality rather than just "believing" and having faith in some highly symbolic/metaphorical, often contradictory big black book of amalgamated ancient mythologies. What difference does it make what *I think* about any "holy" book (or what anyone has done as a result of *their reading* of them)? The subject at hand is "latitude and longitude on the earth and seas". I didn't join this forum to debate what documents various people consider to be sacred and their contents. I came here to *research* the *flat earth*. I posted this thread in the "Reference Materials" section to help those looking to understand latitude and longitude, and I would greatly appreciate it if we could keep *this thread* targeted on that discussion. I do regret, initially posting the link back to my blog, and I apologize to all those whom I offended. I wish I would have just copy and pasted the instructions in this post from the onset. (I have since removed the link to my blog article in my initial comment on this thread, and will not do that again.) ifers.boards.net/post/6076/threadHi all, I have just join up and have just resently come to the realisation that the earth is flat. I am a pilot so this is a new one to me. I am keen to get a acurate scale copy of the flat earth so I can do some calculation on flights parths etc. Can anyone help me with obtaining a good accurate map please. and yes I cant spell. thanks ifers.boards.net/post/6079/threadI am looking for one i can order and get a hard copy of. just an image off the net and then printed out is not what i am looking for. as you have shown there are plenty on the net. i am sure there is one out there somewhere, just how to get one. I have plenty of navigation maps but they are all globe modeled. I am sure "they" have one. And I am sure its not going to be easy to obtain. I have no contacts in this field and am hoping you might be able to dig something up. I believe a copy of a accurate (or as close to) would be valuable. Its even hard to take one off the net and try to make it to scale. as we dont really know what the scale is. Do we? Myself and a friend of mine are very spirital. and both of us have had personal dealings with the true controllers of this reality (holigram) We are very open to new infomation of any sort regarding the manipulation and enlavement of us. Thanks and I hope we can find a copy somehow. Here's what I am thinking. The guys at IFERS treated us very badly, and they certainly lack a healthy mental balance and objectivity. At the same time, there's an ongoing situation that makes me sympathize with them, especially Eric. He created this forum of his, IFERS, merely to spread his opinion on the truth, and it is subtracting precious energy from his life, and without any real advantage. And I wonder: how long can he keep it going? He is basically working for free, more than 8 hours a day, in an online psychiatric hospital, of which he is one of the patients. Indeed, all these forums, especially the "conspiracy theorists" ones are like psychiatric hospitals, because, due to our lifestyles, we are mostly unhealthy and unstable and even hostile to others. Add to this that people on the internet behave even worse, because there are no punishments for anything. With his paranoia, he is probably reading all the posts, especially the three above, wondering who (what agency) sent that specific member there, and what that member's secret agenda might be. For example, for the airplane pilot, who can't spell, Eric is probably wondering if he's a real airplane pilot or is just there to waste his time asking for flat earth maps. That's how he ended up banning a few people already, because of their spelling mistakes and his faulty paranoid reasoning. For the @messyanicmisfit user (that is her real username), he is probably wondering not if she is genuine, because she is, but how long she is going to challenge him (she's pretty straightforward)... if she does it for too long, he's probably going to end up banning her. That would be unfair and that is exactly why were so upset, as we had done even more for his forum. The problem is that IFERS is built on faulty grounds: 1) if it is a forum, there should be freedom of speech, but there isn't 2) if it is a flat earth forum (and IFERS stands for International Flat Earth Research Society), then people should not risk being banned or attacked for their other views on religion or other topics So the IFERS forum was built on two shaky premises and foundations: 1) it is not true to its nature of "forum", 2) it is not true to its name "IFERS". I think he will end up closing it or letting someone else run it, which was my suggestion anyway, in that he cannot be moderator of his forum for two reasons: 1) he's not balanced enough to not abuse that power (and so he bans people who disagree with him) 2) probably no one is balanced enough not to abuse that power. Administrators and moderators should just run the forum and reftrain from posting anything whatsoever

ifers.boards.net/post/6082/threadI can agree to this part of your post, Eric: '"To worship God and to leave every other man free to worship Him in his own way; to love one's neighbor, enlightening them if one can and pitying those who remain in error; to dimiss as immaterial all questions that would have given us no trouble if no importance had been attached to them- this is my religion, it is worth all your systems and symbols." Yeah, too bad he doesn't agree with it himself. Especially with this part: "to leave every other man free to worship Him in his own way; to love one's neighbor, enlightening them if one can and pitying those who remain in error". 1) he hates most of his neighbors, and he is totally intolerant towards them 2) he even allows the propagation of hate for Jews, implicitly encouraging it through his own posts 3) he does much more than "pitying those who remain in error": he lets them post hundreds of messages on his forum, expressing appreciation, he lets them promote it for a month, all this until he needs them, and then, one day, he kicks them out, without warning or explanation, making up some excuses and defaming them as "shills". That is the "compassionate" individual we're talking about.

ifers.boards.net/post/6170/threadLast thing I posted was a valid logical question of how a FE model explains the way the moon shadow shifts from vertical in northern region to horizontal in Equatorial regions. This morning I find I've been banned! I've not mentioned religion nor have I been impolite or abusive to anyone. I was happily exploring the FE model, in hope that I can make sense of it and all was going well... Then I watched a video on this site where the poster shows a graphic of two people standing on a globe, 90 degrees from each other and looking at a half moon. The posters point was that at the equator the moon should also appear 90 degrees turned, i.e. The shadow is horizontal. Till that point I too thought people living on the equator saw the moon with a vertical shadow and that this was further proof of the FE model. In fact I got quite excited thinking this was something that proves FE very well and something that could be presented to a sceptic as an easy to grasp proof. However, a quick search of Google images and I find there's lots of photos of a moon with a horizontal shadow when viewed from the equator. So I return to this forum and post my question, hoping that someone who grasps FE better than I do - as I've only recently started researching it - could explain to me why this rotating moon shadow, which appears to support FE, actually supports the global model theory. The I got banned... why? Banning someone for asking a logical question about a model this forum was set up to support and promote seems a bit odd, and excessive. It is definitely at odds with a Virgo mind Eric. Being a Virgo too, Eric, I know, and you should too, that the question of why the moon's shadow rotates as you travel south is something that FE opponents can throw at this argument as evidence of a globe shaped earth. If this point can not be addressed by proponents of the FE model then it leaves us in a very vulnerable position. So, is the rotating moon shadow something we have to pretend doesn't happen, or can this forum provide a logical response that explains it from a FE perspective? I do actually want the truth to be that the earth is really flat but I'm either missing something simple or this moon shadow question is going to be something that the opposition can use to discredit FE model. Please don't ban me as a guest without first taking this question to task Eric. that is a fair Virgo request. As Eric bans the umpteenth user, let us also remember the good things about him and his die hard fans at IFERS. We already listed, repeatedly, all their mistakes, so let us focus on their qualities: 1) they did zero spamming here: no one registered to interfere with our forum. We cannot say the same about us. 2) Eric is showing and risking his real name and his face, and family. We are not risking anything like that. 3) Eric is offering his knowledge for free (writing on his forum several hours per day and all the other work he does - the sales from his books are a minuscule issue and income). We're providing, overall, much less information to flat earthers. 4) Eric and his die hard fans are mostly in good faith, and they're treating everyone with the same intolerance and aggressiveness as they treated us. There are no personal attacks to people regarding their spelling mistakes or other personal details. Members there almost completely attacked for their ideas, which is certainly intolerant, but it is not as low as personal attacks, as for example, that YouTube user who criticizes Eric for his martial arts skills. As far as attacking members for their ideas, lately we did not display a perfect record either. Although we have fewer attacks here, the biggest difference is that no one has gotten banned. But the problem is that they're leaving on their own, due to a lack of mutual respect. No one likes to get insulted. The best approach to a forum is seeing it as a place where people exchange information and points of views, and not a place where people convince others of their points of view. If you assume this latter approach, you will end up wasting people's time, and making everyone frustrated in the process. You must not expect to convince anyone, and particularly you must not insult their views after failing to convince them. It seems that very few people understand these basic rules.

ifers.boards.net/post/6196/threadYou ban me because I tell you the truth. You are a very insecure person. Obviously, we need a forum that allows Biblical truth and flat earth discussion, because without both you'll never find the complete truth. Even more free promo for Serendipitous?

ifers.boards.net/post/6209/threadWhy must certain viewpoints be classified as "religious" and others as scientific, or rational? In the search for truth what matters is the validity of the argument, not labels. I believe in Jesus, not only because "the Bible says so", but because his moral teachings are true and good, and also because he gave his life so that we may have eternal life. Jesus was not a deceitful liar who tried to take advantage of people or make money by spreading lies. Instead he stood up for the truth, and whipped the bankers out of the temple, and by so doing he got powerful enemies who conspired to kill him. This does not sound like an evil liar to me. I am very interrested to hear arguments from those who do not believe in Jesus, why the don't. Of course the Jesus character could possibly be an fabrication, but why then did the early Christians who had actually met Jesus rather face persecution and being fed to the lions instead of changing their faith? Why let yourself be killed for a lie? Nowadays so called ' Christianity' is totally corrupted, but that does not invalidate the teachings of Christ. And thank you for waking me up to the flat earth Eric. Jesus said nothing about a round earth, probably because most people those days knew the earth was flat, so Jesus did not have to correct them on that.

ifers.boards.net/post/6210/threadAs an example of how the Flat Earth Society controls opposition, just look at this Vice.com interview with them and see how the misinfo psy-op works: Yes, There are Still People Who Believe the Earth is FlatFor example, see the answer given for seeing different stars in different places on Earth: "We all know some stars are visible from the Southern Hemisphere and not from the Northern Hemisphere, but the reason behind that is electromagnetic and optical acceleration through an aetheric whirlpool. We believe in cosmic speed, but in an esoteric sense." What the hell are they talking about!? "Electromagnetic and optical acceleration through an aetheric whirlpool? Esoteric cosmic speed sense?" It's purposeful, pointless word salad to discredit the flat Earth message. The real reason, as given by the man whose work they're claiming to represent, is as follows: “What can be more common than the observation that, standing at one end of a long row of lamp-posts, those nearest to us seem to be the highest; and those farthest away the lowest; whilst, as we move along towards the opposite end of the series, those which we approach seem to get higher, and those we are leaving behind appear to gradually become lower … It is an ordinary effect of perspective for an object to appear lower and lower as the observer goes farther and farther away from it. Let any one try the experiment of looking at a light-house, church spire, monument, gas lamp, or other elevated object, from a distance of only a few yards, and notice the angle at which it is observed. On going farther away, the angle under which it is seen will diminish, and the object will appear lower and lower as the distance of the observer increases, until, at a certain point, the line of sight to the object, and the apparently uprising surface of the earth upon or over which it stands, will converge to the angle which constitutes the ‘vanishing point’ or the horizon; beyond which it will be invisible.” -Dr. Samuel Rowbotham, “Zetetic Astronomy, Earth Not a Globe!” (230-1) The horizon is not the end of the heavens, it is merely the vanishing point of your perspective, so different stars are visible and appear at different inclinations wherever you are in the world. In fact, the range at which people all over the Earth are able to see the same stars does not fit with the globular model. For instance, Ursa Major, very close to Polaris, can be seen from 90 degrees North latitude (the North Pole) all the way down to 30 degrees South latitude. The constellation Vulpecula can be seen from 90 degrees North latitude, all the way to 55 degrees South latitude. Taurus, Pisces and Leo can be seen from 90 degrees North all the way to 65 degrees South. Aquarius and Libra can be seen from 65 degrees North to 90 degrees South! The constellation Virgo is visible from 80 degrees North down to 80 degrees South, and Orion can be seen from 85 degrees North all the way to 75 degrees South latitude! An observer on a ball-Earth, regardless of any tilt or inclination, should not logically be able to see this far. “Another thing is certain, that from within the equator the north pole star, and the constellations Ursa Major, Ursa Minor, and many others, can be seen from every meridian simultaneously; whereas in the south, from the equator, neither the so-called south pole star, nor the remarkable constellation of the Southern Cross, can be seen simultaneously from every meridian, showing that all the constellations of the south - pole star included - sweep over a great southern arc and across the meridian, from their rise in the evening to their setting in the morning. But if the earth is a globe, Sigma Octantis, a south pole star, and the Southern Cross, a southern circumpolar constellation, they would all be visible at the same time from every longitude on the same latitude, as is the case with the northern pole star and the northern circumpolar constellations. Such, however, is not the case.” -Dr. Samuel Rowbotham, “Zetetic Astronomy, Earth Not a Globe!” (286) "What the hell are they talking about!? "Electromagnetic and optical acceleration through an aetheric whirlpool? Esoteric cosmic speed sense?" It's purposeful, pointless word salad to discredit the flat Earth message."Exactly Eric. I got into FE after watching your content, not theirs. I took your advice and related to what you said about the controlled opp side of things. However, I came here like many to explore this new found subject after falling out the bottom of the rabbit hole. I've done 9/11, I've done Apollo hoax, I've been strolling through the matrix since watching the towers fall demo style all those years ago...... and I've landed on your forum with a bump - 3 times now. What you should realise, as someone who is leading the way with FE, is that FE is totally different to all the above, and while it's what you live/breath so to speak, to us newbies it's not so simple. Can you remember your ureka moment with FE? There's something totally unique about it. You crack 9/11 and you go to yourself "I can see now there's a small bunch of other people with a plan who did that." Same with NASA, like I talked about in the post you deleted when you banned me, it's obviously just an extension of Hollywood; a money spinner, a proven winner - space programs 2.0. The thing with FE is the culprit, the deceiver if you like, is not a small bunch of other people with a plan in the usual styley, if fucking mother nature herself who suddenly steps forward to declares she blagged you...... It's not...... but that is part of the big FE hit; you're not just changing your perception of people in power, you're facing up to a major paradigm shift in how your universe is made up. Doesn't matter if your religious, or not, each of us has a big picture of how it all works and what it's all about and the FE model opens your head up wide leaving you with a new sense of wonderment and hours and hours of rethinking. But stepping back to earth for a minute..... I've done 9/11 not because I've researched every site on the net about it..... no... I've done 9/11 because I reached the point where I can answer pretty much any question about it. It's knowing the truth and being able to defend that truth. That's when you've 'done it'. So before I can become someone who's 'done FE' I need to be able to to stand up the questioning I'll receive if I start spouting it. The question I raised, before I was banned from this forum, was about why people at the equator view the moon with a horizontal shadow. At the north pole it is vertical, at the south pole it is vertical and a mirror of the north pole view. This is a three dimensional issue that I have trouble incorporating into my FE model; it is the question I can't answer if asked.... which means I haven't 'done FE'. If the people on this forum who have 'done FE' and are now the leaders in the field, then if anything, your priority should be on providing answers to such questions to people entering your flat world for the first time. Otherwise, what exactly is a leader and what exactly is a truth? regards, and without ill will Moonshine 1 2 & 3

There is still some questions to the flat earth theory to me as well, I think no one has all the answers, no matter how convincing someone may seem, there are sgill different perspectives, partly due to eaxh mans condition and exoerience,and to my opinion, the flat earth is not something that can be understood by applying the reasoning faculties of the mind, reason can only take the truth to a certain extent, reason is a great tool, but it has its own limits, like it has its very own ice wall surrounding it
I have been watching videos on the flat earth, but there is this feeling inside me that there is something missing or empty, about this theory and what the true shape of the world is. There is some living aspect of it missing.
Our material bodies cannot travel to the edge of the world, there the weather is too chilly, most likely one would die before he or she gets to the edge and never return, and we cannot legally just go up on a rocket or else the government will shun us for doing so.
I think we have already stretched our own reasoning abilities to a great extent, and will come to an end
The information has already been gathered, expirements countless made, yet there is still disputes wether there is a concave or a flat earth. There is a finite information we have, and from there, only a finite conclusion can be made, and given a set of dots,no matter how much, there will always be a certain number of lines connecting two dots.
The next step would be to ask God or at least sit in silence waiting and drawing upon some inspirations and hints, the answer asked will be received,perhaps dreams are another form of hinting, time will bring only the answer. It is that ereka that struggles to work its way through, and having been doing this for some time on who controls the world, and this flat earth theory, here are some of the hints I picked up through silent prayer and meditation:
The earth has the things that can cure all sicknesses and diseases, herbs and plants have special remedy effects, and weed the medicine plant gets banned and no one cannot use it. Except for medical purposes, but now it is illegal
It used to be lushy. Full of life, beautiful, weather was not hot or cold, just the right temperature almost anywhere, no extreme weathers
Part of the earth is hidden, and is quarantined from view. The ice wall once never existed and behind it could contain some higher dimensional land, that the Atlanteans once inhabited or could have access to, and after the degeneracy,this hidden land disappeared and in lay a large ice wall, guarded with ice cold weather and blizzard.
It is impossible to cross the border, only when peace is established again can the ice wall melt and the weather subside
Which means the earth we see now has a hidden area no man can have access to, no manmade invention or camera can see beyond the wall, and take pictures, the electromagnetic or ether frequencies would "destroy" and distort the light waves, making the horizon look warped, inconsistent, blurry
The shape we see now is not actually the true shape, it is only a quarantined area

Interesting optical illusion. I was looking at this thread: www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=63538.msg1686157#msg1686157I found a picture of the sun. It is quite interesting how the knowledge that the sun is blinding makes the white color of the sun seem more blinding than the same exact white of a white square, which in fact contains much more white than the picture of the sun and does not seem blinding at all (compare sun at top with white square at bottom, but first click on it to see it fully magnified):

And thank you for waking me up to the flat earth Eric. Jesus said nothing about a round earth, probably because most people those days knew the earth was flat, so Jesus did not have to correct them on that. Why did you ban me? I am a supporter of the flat earth theory, and made a relatively polite comment about the Bible, as a comment to your post. Now I can't read any threads even if I a do not intend to comment. I understand and agree with your arguments against organized religion, and prepackaged belief systems, but it seems unfair to ban someone just because of differences on theological questions and the accuracy of the bible. Would you ban Christian flat earthers like Charles K Johnson or Rowbotham if they had also commented here? I simply responded to your claim about christians believing in Jesus just because of the Bible, but truth is many Christians have come to their beliefs by carefully weighing the arguments, some were born into it yes, but others have made up their own mind. Ah, ah... no, he wouldn't have banned "Christian flat earthers like Charles K Johnson or Rowbotham", because he's only brutal with unknown people, even if they are his fans. With famous people, he's much nicer. For example, he banned me because I defended Mark Sargent, because he says Mark Sargent is a "shill". But he did not ban Mark Sargent himself. I promoted his forum everywhere for a month, and wrote 500 thoughtful posts on it. But I am nobody, so he was ruthless with me. But Mark Sargent did nothing for him, and yet he is still a member there. In the same way, he invited Caesar back, and TET, to some degree, too. His concept of justice and peace is twisted to his own advantage. Because he is not about peace nor justice. He's lost track of those values, as far as humans. Maybe he still applies them to animals, by being a vegan.

Today I resumed my trading, my discretionary trading I mean. It went OK. I am not going to say any numbers, but it's not much in terms of trading. Actually I had resumed a week ago. But I blew out my account as usual. This wasn't the optimal period for me to trade because these flat earth forums are very destabilizing, due to all us sick maniacs interacting with one another, and, instead of providing each other with the support we need, making our emotional and mental balance much worse than if we just interacted with the sheeple. I am basically not yet a profitable trader, after trying for many years. But I still keep trying. For many years I have run a server where I "forward-tested" my automated systems, which are profitable. But I don't have enough money to invest with them, because they require much more than discretionary trading requires. In some periods, I had reached the necessary funds, through discretionary trading, but I blew it each time. Because I wanted more. Also, the money I had made got to my head, and made me less cautious. Oh, well. The most famous trader of all time, Jesse Livermore, won and lost fortunes several times, and he ended up committing suicide, after losing everything for the umpteenth time. I'll be glad if I can do slightly better than that, which is not hard. Until now, I had not resumed my (discretionary) trading because all the funds were used for renting that server in the US, which I recently stopped renting. I finally figured that, aside from the fact that I have enough data (years of forward-testing), if I don't get to the bottom of profitable discretionary trading, once and for all, I will never have the funds for automated trading. So, why forward-test my systems anyway? At any rate, they stayed profitable for several years, and they're not likely to stop being profitable. Other than this, I joined Steve's Concave Earth forum. The interface does not seem a good choice, and the web url address is too long. They're going to need to fix that. However, I have seen some incredible things over the years, such as impractical forums with long web addresses which nonetheless had huge success. So, despite seeing that long address... welcome-to-concave-earth-forum.70389.x6.nabble.com/The-Concave-Earth-You-Live-Inside-f1.html... I still registered, and all the more so when I saw that they started with such a handicap. In fact, this should be a reason to support Dubay and his fans, too, because they have several handicaps: their opinions on Jesus, on the Holocaust, on the necessity to be vegans... I would be and should be for their right to speak out... but the only problem is that they treated me so badly that my resentment keeps me from wanting to help them, and from sympathizing with them. But, as time will go by, especially if we first beat them with this forum, I may be able to forgive them, to support them, and show them the way. --- In fact, I was thinking, rather than having such a frustrating interaction with people, it is much better that I was banned from that forum and that this forum, too, becomes deserted, as it is already happening. That way, we all stay by ourselves, each one on his thread. Better being by yourself, than in bad company, as they say in Italy. Meglio solo che male accompagnato. And after the unpleasant interactions of the last few days, I am now enjoying my solitude on this thread. Better alone, than harassed. Having grown up with a negative hypercritical father, I am more sensitive to criticism than average, but I also believe that in general negativity has a very destructive effect.

Ah ah, this is an historical event. Two hardcore historical revisionists, hardcore fans of Eric Dubay, hardcore verbal abusers of IFERS forum members... are finally arguing with one another about the Holocaust: ifers.boards.net/post/6374/threadno Jewish deaths in WW2, Orthodox or not. Most of the victims of Zionism in WW2, running over 50 Million A few thousand Jews died of starvation or Typhus as a result of Allied bombing I can't agree, that no Jews or Christians died, during WWII in German Prison Camps; we know many people were starved to death, based on the Allied Bombing Activity. The only reason to have large INTERNAL camps of the local population was to have Slave Labor. Zionism is an equal opportunity killer. Did Jews die in the PRISON-LABOR-CAMPS during WWII? YES Did Christians die in the PRISON-LABOR-CAMPS during WWII? YES Did other Religious denominations die in the PRISON-LABOR-CAMPS during WWII? YES Everything else are stories told to profit the Zionists at the expense of the German People. Who will win? Will any of these two be banned? Who will delete his own account in the forum? I think there will be serious conflict here. Stay tuned.

Latest spamming spree advertising campaign on FacebookThis was the text: Given that I have recently been banned from two Flat Earth groups on Facebook, for defending steve from ad hominem attacks (more details here), my latest campaign was not as successful, because the Flat Earth groups are the most profitable. I spammed about 20 Facebook groups in total, ranging from 911 to Space Travel groups. So, this time I spammed zero flat earth groups. Yet it still brought 100 extra guests within a span of 24 hours. After a few days of not "spamming" any Facebook groups, we had gone down to below 200 guests per day. So, after monitoring for 24 hours after posting the message on Facebook groups, the statistical data at the bottom of the homepage, my assessment of this latest campaign is as follows: within 2 hours, about 40 extra guests, and zero new members within 12 hours, about 70 extra guests, and zero new members within 24 hours, about 100 extra guests, and zero new members So these campaigns do not bring new members as a rule. We only get those from Dubay's forum, either through the banner or their " Shill Forum!" thread, which has now 4,999 views, that is to say more than any other thread here, and more than most of their threads there. My guesstimate is that those previous campaigns on Facebook, which included all Flat Earth groups, produced about 150 guests within a span of 24 hours. So, as a conclusion, this is how we reached over 400 guests per day: that is merely through a series of spamming campaigns on Facebook, just as I had thought. Without those, we are stable at about 200 guests per day. This was just a statistical test, and I don't plan to run many more campaigns in the future, also because they do not bring any new members. Probably from 20 or so spamming sprees on Facebook (each one including 20 groups on average), all we got is 5 more members. Since I only did about 20 of these promotion campaigns, and we only got a total of 5 members from them, it is not worth it to continue. Also because those 5 members now are all inactive anyway. But the truth is that it was intelligent promotion, so those being spammed actually liked them, and only one of these hundreds of messages I left (20 times 20, equals 400) resulted in me being banned from one of these Facebook groups.

Today I'm resting and watching movies in German, so I can study German while relaxing: Die Verschwörung - Tödliche Geschäfte (2014) - kinoger.comDie Verschwörung - Tödliche Geschäfte - Film 2014 - moviepilot.deRoadracers (1994) - kinoger.com Roadracers - Film 1994 - moviepilot.deThey are not that good, but good movies are hard to find for me, because I've already watched the best 1000 movies. Of the few I haven't watched, half of them I can't find on alluc.to nor on kinoger.com, which are my two main movie streaming web sites. I also look on YouTube for the older movies, from at least 20 years ago. My reference web site for knowing how good movies are before I watch them is moviepilot.de, whose ratings almost totally match my taste in movies. So far I understand half of what is going on, and about 20% of their sentences. Good enough for me, given the speed. There is no way I could ever speak to someone given what I know right now. The radio is better for learning, but more boring, because I could not find any interesting radios. So I end up listening much less radio than I watch movies, and so I am better off watching movies. I made a point over a year ago to only watch movies in German.

ifers.boards.net/post/6506/threadaids was probably created in a lab - do you really believe it was spread via monkeYs and its not the germ - its the terrain - Pasteur was wrong (but the drug cartel base their business model on it) Bernard and Bechamp were right - look it up Hey paul, I'm getting tired of your double-speak. HIV/AIDS is a known scam but the HIV mark can be tested for, at which point the CUSTOMER is given patient drugs that can give him 30 different disease, anyone of which can kill them. What about these Paul? GOT KOSHER? Measles killed about 200 million people worldwide, and kills another 300,000 yearly Camel: Smallpox - Killed 300 million, and kills another 200,000 yearly Pigs: Whooping Cough, meningitis Chickens: Typhoid Fever (Typhoid Mary) Ducks: Influenza Water Buffalo: Leprosy Horses: Common Cold It looks like we might get a new member soon, this Paul, who keeps on expressing his thoughts, without first having them authorized by the Ministry of Truth.
