If Earth Is Really Round, Why Don't Distant Shorelines Appear Curved?

Round Earth belief claims that earths curvature is approximately 8 inches per square mile. However, when you look at a shoreline from a great distance, no significant "curve" can be seen. The above illustration proves this: the image on the left is how many miles of shoreline should appear if the earth was really a ball. The image on the right shows how distant shorelines actually look. No curvature exists.

  • Your posts arguing that the Earth is flat has got to be the dumbest shit I have ever read. I'm tired of seeing such ignorance. You must be completely -blam!-ing stupid if you can't accept the FACT that the Earth IS ROUND. Just cuz your ass and chest are flat doesn't mean the Earth is. Welcome to Mute Town. G-Day!
