Flat Earth

Did you know …

That many prominent scientitians believe that the Earth, this one right here, is flat? It’s true!

If this is the case, many say, the flat Earth must be accelerating “upwards” through space at exactly 1G (~9.8 meters per second) to replicate the gravity we would feel if we lived on a spherical, Earth-sized Earth. And if this is true, it follows, our flat Earth would have achieved the speed of light after about seven years. By all accounts, Earth has existed for longer than 7 years. If this is true, and if we chose to accept Aaron Einstein’s theory of relativity, we should all have become infinitely dense as we approached to speed of light, and also time no longer passes.

How I’m writing this with infinitely dense fingers and trapped in a frozen instant of time is beyond me, but then again so are a lot of things.

Other scientific facts that are beyond me:
-Worms find each other attractive
-Compound bows
-Cheese is made of milk
-Plate tectonics
-Twins have identical DNA but distinct thoughts
-Rabbits can’t see the colors red, orange, or yellow
-Germ theory
