The lie about the shape of the Earth comes from freemasons. The founding fathers of the US were masons. They have been around for hundreds if not thousands of years. They worship the devil. That's what this is all about. Mocking god and worshiping satan.

Eratosthenes calculated the circumference of the earth to within 20% in 240 BC by using the angle of shadows at mid-day on the solstice at different latitudes. I suppose freemasonry was founded in Hellenic Greece then was it?

Worshiping satan is as old as humans are. At first people called giving into bad thoughts evil or satanic. Then there were idiots who tried to act like their bad feelings and thoughts weren't a part of themselves and they started to blame another entity. It all comes down to acting like a child and not wanting to take responsibility for your own actions. That's too hard to believe? That ancient humans were babies who blamed someone else for the shit they did?

The ancient Greeks, Romans, Germanics, Egyptians, etc. knew the world was round way back in the B.C.s...
You can see the bending horizon from a boat, and the sailors in prehistoric times knew this. As far as God goes, it says the Earth is round in the Holy Bible. I can't remember the exact verse, but in the Old Testament it says the earth is a ball/sphere.

How would you know what they thought?
No, you can't. The horizon is flat as fuck from a boat's perspective.
Again, how do you know what the people back then thought? Are you a time traveler?
It doesn't. The bible talks about the firnament. Which is the dome that covers the Earth. "Scientists" have called it the van Allen belts.
