Someone recently asked me to respond to a video series detailing "proof" that the Earth is in fact not a sphere, but a flat plane. The narrator's argument is that we inhabit a cosmic snow globe roughly equivalent to what's described in Judeo-Christian scripture and other religious texts. It was over an hour and a half of video, so it took me a while get through all 11 parts, but I eventually did, and even managed to take some notes. Unfortunately, parsing the fallacies and poetry into something I can assemble a response to is taking much longer. (Yes, poetry. The Tower of Babel is presented as evidence.) So, stay tuned for that, there will be another entry on this subject at a later date. For now, simply enjoy and consider the following videos of our round world spinning through space.
