    Why is the world cold in the center, progressively warmer to the middle band and then colder again until the freezing cold edge? What's the relevance of the equator? Why is there so much rain in the middle band? Why do there tend to be deserts in two bands on either side? Why is cold on the outer band when its hot on the inner band, and vice versa? Why do toilets flush the other way in Australia? So many unanswered questions!

    I can't help but think anyone who joins this particular conspiracy theory actually needs psychological help.

    If it were flat, you should be able to see every continent in a picture like this instead of just the Americas. I guess the flat earth people think such photos are fake.

    I'd be curious to hear from some of our usual conspiracy theorists.

    By the way, where would the hollow earth inhabitants live in a flat earth?

    [ZOOLANDERish]WHAT?!?!?! How can it be like a coin?!?!? :rolleyes: We'd all be very small and fit onto a coin??!?!? Don't give me that![/ZOOLANDERish]

    :D Ok, Ok, if it's flat, I would probably accept more of a photo like the "Azimuthal" one:

    Or a DOUBLE-SIDED coin like this one:
