Some SCHOOL DISTRICTS right here in America teach that the world is only 5000 years old. I'm much more scared about that.

We can easily proove the earth is round by flying around it. Nobody can even come within the ballpark of proving that life was randomly begun along the lines of any currently-held theories about it. They certainly cannot reproduce it or anything close to it, so who's really retarded?

Amino acids HAVE been created from scratch in experiments, and the evidence of evolution is everywhere, in every living organism, and in every sedimentary rock. Evolution, relativity, and a lot of other theories that modern science is based on are fact, just like the earth being round. The only difference is how easy it is to demonstrate them to idiots.

Flying "around" it? That just means flying along the circumference of the flat disc, which will naturally bring you back to the same place you started.

I think there's plenty of evidence for a flat earth, at least as much as for intelligent design.
 
Well, the earth being round is a scientific theory. That said, is has about the same amount of proof as there is for evolution. There are still people who believe in "creation," so I wouldn't be all that surprised about people who still think the earth is flat. They have really really really slow newspapers in some parts of the world.
 
the earth is in 4D space. not 3d... the earth changes with time and distance, and yes, there probably are more than 4 dimensions.

strings is just a way to describe small bundles of energy.

the earth being round has a heck of a lot more evidence than evolution. Creationism is stupid. ID =\= creationism

If you believe the string theory, then the earth is actually in 12D space (or is it 10D?)

i work in a hospital and one day there was a physics professor from a local college that was intubated and on a ventilator. he was still very mentally with it and i asked him what he thought of superstring theory. he gave me a big thumbs up!!! ive read all about it awhile back and thought what tha hell!!!
its one of those theories that is going to unite many theories together. TOE (theory of everything) some people call it. unites quatum physics with relativity.

Earth is 4D in spacetime, with 3 spacial dimensions. So no, the Earth isn't 4D in space. Unless we get started on String Theory, Unified Field Theory, Loop Quantum Gravity, Twistor Theory or any of the other TOEs, none of which have a whole lot of physical evidence in their favour at this stage (although they are still young and I'm not denying any one of them is brilliant).

:thumbsup:

yes..and we can't fly around god to see if he's round because hes ..gasp..not there as far as we know
