"The Light" Is The Answer: Destiny & How Sunlight Proves The Flat Earth
Some of you know me. You know how much I love Destiny, and you also know that I think the world is Flat. I love Destiny because so much of its content reflects deeper truths in the real world. "The Light" is a powerful and prevailing theme throughout the game: Oryx maliciously cries out "You are the last of the light!" At its heart Destiny is the story of an epic struggle between light and dark. Light is life.
[i]Light is life[/i]. In the real world this is a huge understatement: life itself would be impossible without light. [b][i]BUT LIGHT IS ALSO PROOF[/i]. It proves one of the fundamental facts of nature:[u] the Flat Earth[/u]. I have mentioned many intuitive proofs for the Flat Earth, such as jumping: the ground does not rotate beneath you when you jump. But light actually proves that the world is Flat, and that the sun is smaller and much closer to Earth's surface. [i]THE ANGLE OF LIGHT[/i]. If the sun were so massive and distant, all light reaching Earth's surface would be parallel. [i]BUT A SIMPLE PICTURE OF SUN BEAMS DISPROVES THIS:[/i] look at the above picture. [i]The sun's beams are clearly hitting earth at an angle[/i]. Tracing a triangle along these angles indicates that the sun is indeed smaller and much closer to earth. This fits with the Flat Earth model, not the round ball myth.[/b]

11 RepliesWhat you're experiencing in that image is refraction and diffraction. 'God rays' happen when the sun shines through a series of small gaps, typically through cloud. The light is then reflected multiple times through the structure in several directions until it's absorbed by the cloud or comes to a gap leading to the ground below. The diffraction is why we can see it so clearly. Welcome to the world of basic science, question. If the earthy was flat, how do we get a night time? It's impossible to have a night time for a flat earth because that's not how light, or the sun works. The sun is a powerful ball of luminous gas caused by nuclear fusion, so: A) If it was small and didn't produce much light then it would have exploded by now, so, it has to be big. B) If it's big and close to the earth to try and make less light hit the areas that are in night time, then we'd have a nice earth barbeque. Hope that clarifies that light is one of the major disproves and, here's a funny thing. About 3-4000 years ago, the Greeks used light to work out how round the world was. Spooky huh.
