Why are schools still allowed to teach our young that the Earth is round?

This is the 21st century for crying out loud. All you have to do to discredit this ridiculous theory is to ask the Round Earth believers why people and animals aren't upside down at the South Pole. God...I hate ignorance like this.

Because it IS round. People at the South Pole ARE upside down from the perspective of people on the opposite part of the globe, and they are upside down from the perspective of people at the South Pole. There is a thing called gravity. Perhaps you've heard of it. It keeps us all on the ground and not floating away. If the Earth was flat, there would, by now, have been explorers who reached the edge of the Earth. To get to another part of the globe, they'd have to turn around. It would seem quite ignorant to think every planet in our solar system is a "ball" except for Earth. What would be UNDERNEATH a flat Earth? How can you fly from Paris to New York, then to Los Angeles, then to Japan, then to Moscow, then to Paris again without finding the "end of the Earth"? You just go in a circle around the round Earth. I would make a facetious comment, but I kind of think this is a joke question. So, I wouldn't want to imply the people who do NOT believe in a round Earth are the really ignorant ones.

You people can't see a troll when one lands on your head?

Finally, someone who stated it! The earth is not round or flat, it's a triangular pyramid!!! I keep telling the world yet they just laugh at me!!! Why do you think gravity on earth exists? It's because of the triangular shape of the prism. Wow. Spread the word!!! All the photographs etc. of the earth are fake. 360 Doritos Mountain Dew

The proof is someone walked the whole earth and saw that it is round.
2016-07-09 5:53 am
Because the globe industry has powerful lobbyists.
2016-07-11 9:34 pm
what? i thought it was a cube.

Because Trump isn't in the White House yet. Don't worry.
2016-07-10 8:52 am
wow
2016-07-10 5:06 am
Because it is.
2016-07-10 12:45 am
Evidently gravity has escaped your notice.

I live at something like 51 degrees north, and I have no feeling of being tilted, but I know I am in relation to other people at different locations on Earth. I live with that very easily, and I am not brave!
2016-07-12 1:03 pm
Seriously? We all know the Earth is a cube.

Weil mein Junge, es ist rund!!! Achten Sie darauf, Ihre Medikamente sehr bald ändern. Neue Alufolie für den Hut könnte eine gute Idee zu sein.

Because it IS round...do you know what a satellite is....have you ever heard of a lunar eclipse? I have a feeling you did not pay attention in middle school ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡° ) During a lunar eclipse, the Earth is in between the moon and the sun and the Earth's ROUND shadow is cast onto the moon's surface. If the Earth was flat, there would be no shadow/or every part of the world would be roughly in the same time zone.

Let me ask you What would have happened if Joshua said let the Earth stand still?
Wind shear would have flatten everything
What would happen if the moon stood still?
Wind shear would have flatten everything
What would happen if the moon stood still?

Because it is!

Schools still allowed to teach our young that the Earth is round is because the fact is truth.

These type of questions get old real fast

People at the South Pole are "upside down" compared to those on the North Pole. If they are not careful maybe they will fall off. In Australia we have to be careful as we may fall side ways . Kangaroos have long tails, not to help them jump but to wrap them around trees so they won't fall.

In ancient Rome Era, ancients didn't acquire much scientific knowledge so they assumed that the earth was in the shape of a plane. And since then on, scientists have been continuing to explore the nature by means of observation and testing of facts as the result they know that the earth is in the shape of a globe and there is a gravitational force in its centre to hold everything.without falling.

is this a trolling question
2016-07-12 4:06 pm
Probably because it does resemble a near round thing.
2016-07-12 3:09 pm
After seeing all documents from NASA and hubble, the viewpoint of Earth from space and many thing else, are you denying this obvious fact???
The last successfull attempt to prove Earth is round was by Ferdinand Magelan the Portuguese sea traveller who started his journey from Portugal and ended it in Portugal again.
The first person who gave evidences of rounding of Earth, was Erathostenos the greek scientist (perhaps i misspelled it), who even calculated Earth's circumference.
one they Erathostenos had sat on the sea coast and he saw that the horizon (where sea and sky meet) is a little round and after a while he saw a ship from far that only a little of its sail was shown. But the more it neread, the more its sail was shown. So Erathostenos found that Earth is round
Its 21st century friend, research more

No they're not!

well because we have seasons. And also I was in space last night and I happened to see you making love to your cousin so you should probably stop.

poe's law applies here, i can't tell if you're serious or not
look at the curvature of the earth, and the fact that boats do not drop over the horizon, no matter where you go. Go to the top of a mountain, tall hill, building, etc, and see the earth is curved, so it's round. How do you explain the sunset? If it was flat wouldn't it shrink, anywhere you go?

Cuz a lot (not blaming any) are lazy.
2016-07-09 8:51 pm
The evidence shows it is round. At one time, the earth being round was only a theory. We now have actual pictures of the earth taken from space that shows that the earth is round. Gravity is the real question here. People are upside down on the South Pole but don't know it because gravity holds them down so their feet are on the earth!!!
2016-07-10 3:42 pm
Because it's the truth. But the question should be, why are schools still teaching the story of evolution.
2016-07-10 4:12 am
Gullible people, lol!
2016-07-10 5:03 pm
You are right! these idiots think that the earth is round! Finally someone who doesn't have their head stuck in their ***!
