That's the thing... if you start to go by what is observable, you start to see that the world is round.Another thing we have learned from observing it in free fall - liquids naturally form spherical globs. It's only a small leap of the imagination to extend that (and the process by which it happens) to the shape of planets.
Ever debated with a Flat Earther on the topic? Interesting stuff. Reminds me of when I argue with Vegans... you are in the wrong, you are stupid, you are blind... just accept what is being told to you, and all will be fine. Their arguments are built on emotion rather than fact or logical deduction. Also, the last time I looked at Eric Dubay's Flat Earth forum, it was hilariously paranoid! One post that questioned anything... you're the enemy, and get banned! Bizarre to observe.
Of interest, the original forum was deleted. He has since set up a new forum here: http://ifers.ace.st/ . He certainly seems to be a key proponent of the movement.
