The Flat Earth Societyl

I think they also claim that gravity doesn't exist, and that the disk we live on is actually accelerating upward at 9.8m/s^2, which is what makes the illusion of gravity. I am not sure where we are going or how we are being accelerated (laws of motion) but darn it, there you go. It is a crazy site, but it is painful to read.

It's incredible just how detailed their beliefs are. I spent a good couple hours on that site the first time I found them. I remember the crowning moment in my perusal being someone describing a theory about how the earth actually extended infinitely outward and got increasingly colder the farther you went out making travel there impossible. The flat earther told him just how ridiculous this view was, it was too far fetched.

Reminds me of some of the Otherkin pages I've seen: http://www.fairiesvampires.com/group/realmforfairies/forum/topics/im-a-fairy-i-think-what-now

Top of page 2 is just grand. People who believe that they're fairies shouldn't criticize each other for being ridiculous

They have been around for a few years now as far as I'm aware. It does boggle my mind as well. I'd like to think that many of them are just trolling. I would really like to. It seems a pretty crazy site, but hey, whatever makes them happy I guess, they seem harmless.

Oh man. I was hooked on that site for a few weeks about 6-7 years ago. So much time wasted in pointless arguments with those people. If anyone is thinking about doing this, please take my advice and just don't. Any evidence you have for a round earth is quickly dismissed as part of the conspiracy. All pictures of earth's curvature are photoshops etc. I find it all incredibly frustrating.
