WOWZERS!!!
The Bible says the Earth is a GLOBE!!!
Isaiah 40:22
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
22 It is he that sitteth upon the globe of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as locusts: he that stretcheth out the heavens as nothing, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in.

DOUAY-RHEIMS 1899 AMERICAN EDITION (DRA)
Publisher: Public Domain
Version Information
The Douay–Rheims Bible is a translation of the Bible from the Latin Vulgate into English made by members of the Catholic seminary English College, Douai, France. It is the foundation on which nearly all English Catholic versions are still based.
It was translated principally by Gregory Martin, an Oxford-trained scholar, working in the circle of English Catholic exiles on the Continent, under the sponsorship of William (later Cardinal) Allen. The New Testament appeared at Rheims in 1582; the Old Testament at Douai in 1609.
The translation, although competent, exhibited a taste for Latinisms that was not uncommon in English writing of the time but seemed excessive in the eyes of later generations. The New Testament influenced the Authorized Version.
Between 1749 and 1752, English bishop Richard Challoner substantially revised the translation with an aim to improve readability and comprehensibility. It was first published in America in 1790 by Mathew Carey of Philadelphia. Several American editions followed in the 19th and early 20th centuries; prominent among them the Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition Version.

Yeah, the ONLY people lying to us ALL are the "folks" who say we NEVER went to the Moon AND BACK safely.
Including Neil Armstrong.
A cursory to detailed analysis notes Neil Armstrong is NOT lying about his Apollo 11 trip to the Moon AND BACK safely in THIS ACTUAL NEWS SEGMENT.
To a Spherical (Geoidal) Earth.
Note.
The curvature of THE MOON.
Neil Armstrong's X-15 FLIGHTS AT 4,000 MPH.
Neil Armstrong's account of OTHER PERSONAL AVIATION EXPERIENCES!!!
IS, pray tell, THERE A DIFFERENCE IN RECALLING THESE EXPERIENCES???!!!
So..........................
So, let's ALL be HONEST with OURSELVES...............
Uh..............
NOW.................
Isn't "flat" Earth just plain STUPID in light of ALL the RELEVANT FACTS to, once AGAIN, PROVE the Earth is Spherical (Geoidal) in shape???!!!

👌Got it!
By all practical appearances, the reasonable and rational observation is, "No, @caddieman. You do NOT "get" "it"."
The basic shift in Your "convoluted" "reasoning" or "rationale" is general restrictions to gun purchases or requiring gun registries will remedy illegal and unwanted outcomes.
Hmmm...........
So gun registries will prevent crimes???!!!
Isn't that like saying car registration will prevent drunk driving and lethal car collisions???!!!
Personally, I DO NOT want fully automatic weapons while I DO NOT believe fully automatic weapons should be banned.
Do we ban alcohol to prevent drunk driving a registered car???!!!
Hmmm...........
Some existential questions for the malfeasantly minded in hopes additional requirements or restrictions will produce amenable outcomes.
@caddieman, have You NO insight to see YOUR personal connection with Nazism AND Socialism where everyone is REQUIRED to comply with gun registries???!!!
World War II Germany.
Other places, too.
Hmmm..........
England?
What, give a break in criminal a card of non interference and watch the criminal trash and otherwise steal personal property???!!!
Ah, NO!!!
Will YOU, pray tell, @caddieman, remain in self styled ignorance (Yes, of course, Bless YOUR Heart, @caddieman)???!!!
I want to, and have, logged my firearms in my own personal records to prove ownership IF they are stolen or destroyed in a fire or natural disaster. That is as far as a gun registry is needed. Firearms can and should be able to be sold between individuals WITHOUT any gun registry since gun registries, and other restrictions, have no impediment to crimes that may or may not include firearms.

In my best southern voice: "Bless Your Heart" you actually believe criminals will obey a law to register their guns.
Well, OK, @TexasGranny, You admirably speak for me, too, here.
Thank You.
Below are the meanings of "bless your heart" from an Alabama born and raised southerner.
1. If someone has just lost a loved one, we say bless your heart to mean sympathy.
2. If a child falls down and skins their knee or someone tells you a sad story about a family member, we say bless your heart to mean we are sincerely sorry something bad happened.
3. If a southerner looks at you with a sardonic smile and says bless your heart, it usually means she thinks you're an idiot or your opinion is stupid.
4. If we look you straight in the face and say bless your heart and walk away or hang up, it generally means go screw yourself. This meaning also applies if bless your heart is used after an insult of some kind whether veiled or not.
5. Bless your heart can also be used to indicate surprise and happiness. For example, if someone tells you they won the lottery, we might say, "Bless your heart! That's fantastic!"
6. Another example is when we talk to each other about anything generally negative but not at all meant to be insulting. For example, "I know she spent all day in the kitchen and tried her very best, but bless her heart, what she served for the dinner party was just awful."
Hope this helps y'all!Well, OK, I don’t want to speak for anybody but #3 seems most applicable HERE!!!-

Do you think the sources I posted are more reputable than OAN, NewsMax, Gateway Pundit or Epoch Times.
No. Not at all.Shouldn’t be a question since the answer is, obviously, “No. Not at all.”
It is painful to watch people in a state of intentional and perpetual incognizance.
One thing I came to realize of my own assessment is an extensive Psychological Warfare Operation was orchestrated on We The People of The United States Of America since the mid 1950s through the mid to late 1970s.
In my opinion, one reason for the Vietnam War was to engage Patriotic Young People of The United States of America in a non symmetric, reasonably objectiveless, and inconclusive conflict to separate Citizenship from Patriotism. Then kill Patriotism. And cheapen Citizenship along with destroying Social Cohesiveness.
I would have been one of the first drafted to serve in the Iranian War. If it came to that. Youth was so cheapened at the time that in the conflict, I feared diversely more perilous captive practices than the Vietnam War. I supported, and still do support, Vietnam War Veterans while I feared any Iranian War Return Veterans would receive the same and, potentially, much worse return “welcome” or, really, “non welcome”.
Understandably so, the Vietnam War Veterans would need to tend to their own first due the Social Atrocities performed against them making it the more difficult for the return Iranian War Veterans, if it were so, due to a significantly different enemy and engagement with even less acceptance from the general public.
All this to say Psychological Warfare has been, and is being, conducted on We The People of The United States Of America.
Just like in the UK, Canada, Australia, and New Zeeland.
By their own respective governments.
Understanding this is a The Epoch Times article/video, I would say it is relevant and, at least, mostly correct on the Psychological Warfare being conducted.
Tiday.
And for a very long time now.
All this to say, @caddieman,
it is so painful to observe Your “cognition” fully embedded in Your “safe” “space” so proudly on display for all to see.
Make no mistake, I wish no harm on You, @caddieman, while I desire immensely You would “unjam” Yourself, stand up straight, then act in a manner for Your own well being and the well being of others.
I am, however, greatly pained by the mass hysteria, panic, and non sensical behaviors by people I would normally trust to be rational, level headed, and reasonable actors in spite of while above and beyond the COVID-19 and, especially, the COVID-19 whackcination campaign propagated to cause people to harm themselves with unhealthy practices and mRNA whackcinations to harm, maim, and kill people.
Acutely and Chronically.
The previous Psychological Warfare Programming was highly effective in activating the vast army of Saul Alinsky’s “useful” “idiot” Snowflake and Buttercup Idiot Brigade Volunteer Forces.
To the bane and chagrin of us all.

ACCORDINGLY, pray tell, are YOU, @bigwave, STILL "trying" to overcome and/or silence the TRUTH AND facts the Earth is Spherical (Geoidal) in shape with LIES AND "flat" Earth nonsense materials and "proofs"???!!!
People know AND believe the Earth is Spherical (Geoidal) in shape based on THEIR OWN INDIVIDUAL OBSERVATIONS NOT BASED ON WHAT THEY WERE TOLD IN THE PAST.
Get it???!!!
FURTHER, pray tell, WHY DO YOU DISTORT THE BIBLE TO INFER THE Earth is "flat" WHEN THAT IS AN OBVIOUS LIE???!!!
YOU, @bigwave, do know where LIES come from don't YOU, @bigwave???!!!
John 8:44
New International Version
44 You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
Believing AND proclaiming the TRUTH the Earth is Spherical (Geoidal) in shape instead of "flat" IS A SALVATION ISSUE. This is NOT about a favorite sports team or favorite food where one prefers one and believes one to be better over the other. People who are NOT born again believers in God The Son Jesus Christ KNOW "flat" Earth proponents and especially the "flat" Earth proponents who proclaim the Bible notes the Earth to be "flat" are LIARS then associate the Bible and God The Son Jesus Christ to be irrelevant.
So, other born again believers in God The Son Jesus Christ as part of their witness to nonbelievers in God The Son Jesus Christ have yet another obstacle to overcome by telling nonbelievers they are witnessing to the Bible DOES NOT SAY OR INFER THE Earth is "flat" and "flat" Earth believers are LIARS.
Do YOU, @bigwave, pray tell, NOT SEE the issue here of WHY, prayed and told, advocating "flat" Earth is a LIE and NOT irrelevant???!!!
Myriads of information have been provided to note how one can know the Earth is Spherical (Geoidal) in shape and not "flat" BASED ON THEIR OWN PERSONAL OBSERVATIONS AND NOT WHAT NASA IS SAYING OR WHAT THEY WERE TOLD IN ANY CLASSROOM.
Further, prayed and told, to call or even infer Born Again Believers In God The Son Jesus Christ who are astronauts AND went to the moon and back safely during the Apollo Missions are liars is egregious and unthinkable since they DID REALLY go to the moon and back.
NOBODY proclaimed the Saturn V Apollo Mission launches to be FAKE when they occured in the 1960s and 1970s since THEY COULD SEE THEM FROM THEIR OWN PERSONAL OBSERVATION!!!
Do YOU, @bigwave, pray tell, NOT KNOW the Good Ole Authorized 1611 King Jimmy is an archaic translation with notable differences in word meanings to the English Language TODAY???!!!
There are older and more reliable ancient texts available TODAY in the original languages some of the modern translations into the English Language are based on that supercede the Good Ole Authorized 1611 King Jimmy.
The English Language IS NOT a divine language. Therefore, THERE ARE NO Divine Translations into the English Language. The Good Ole Authorized 1611 King Jimmy can be a prefered English Text but NOT a Standard Text since the word meanings and sentence structures in the Original Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek Languages differ significantly from the English Language.
The Standard Texts are the Texts in the Original Languages being Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek.
The Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek notations DO NOT infer the Earth is "flat" so render the Good Ole Authorized 1611 King Jimmy IRRELEVANT in noting the shape of the Earth WHERE the Good Ole Authorized 1611 King Jimmy seems to give people an impression the Earth is "flat".
The Good Ole Authorized 1611 King Jimmy is a PRIMARY TEXT IN THE English Language people use as a premise to distort Scriptutes to infer the Earth is "flat" AND MUST BE ENTIRELY SUSPECT WHEN NOTATIONS ARE MADE TO the Good Ole Authorized 1611 King Jimmy.
"flat" Earth is just another cult tool to deceive people AND, ESPECIALLY, drive people AWAY FROM the TRUTH of The Scriptures AND eternal life in God The Son Jesus Christ.
People, of course, are free to read the Bible in whatever translation into their language they prefer. I believe God The Holy Spirit speaks to people from the text they are reading in their own primary language of origin even though the word meanings and sentence structures are different than the Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek texts.
For the English Language, I believe the New English Translation with the copious amounts of notations to the original language in the Old Testament and the Mounce Reverse Interlinear with the Greek and references to Strong's Concordance for the New Testament to be texts to investigate and potentially use. I like the Classic Amplified Bible for expanded notations to give further clarity to the originating language.
There is NO common ground between the TRUTH of the Spherical (Geoidal) Earth and "flat" Earth.
Try orienting on the Spherical (Geoidal) Earth with Global Positioning Satellites. It is REAL. Orienting with Global Positioning Satellites has been possible since the 1970s with private aircraft avionics. I can tell YOU, @bigwave, THIS is the TRUTH from MY OWN PERSONAL OBSERVATION AND EXPERIENCE.

Footnotes
Genesis 1:2 tn The disjunctive clause (conjunction plus subject plus verb) at the beginning of v. 2gives background information for the following narrative, explaining the state of things when “God said…” (v. 3). Verse one is a title to the chapter, v. 2 provides information about the state of things when God spoke, and v. 3begins the narrative per se with the typical narrative construction (vav[ו] consecutive followed by the prefixed verbal form). (This literary structure is paralleled in the second portion of the book: Gen 2:4provides the title or summary of what follows, 2:5-6 use disjunctive clause structures to give background information for the following narrative, and 2:7 begins the narrative with the vavconsecutive attached to a prefixed verbal form.) Some translate 1:2a“and the earth became,” arguing that v. 1 describes the original creation of the earth, while v. 2refers to a judgment that reduced it to a chaotic condition. Verses 3ff. then describe the re-creation of the earth. However, the disjunctive clause at the beginning of v. 2cannot be translated as if it were relating the next event in a sequence. If v. 2 were sequential to v. 1, the author would have used the vav consecutive followed by a prefixed verbal form and the subject.
Genesis 1:2 tn That is, what we now call “the earth.” The creation of the earth as we know it is described in vv. 9-10. Prior to this the substance which became the earth (= dry land) lay dormant under the water.
Genesis 1:2 tn Traditional translations have followed a more literal rendering of “waste and void.” The words describe a condition that is without form and empty. What we now know as “the earth” was actually an unfilled mass covered by water and darkness. Later תֹהוּ(tohu) and בֹּהוּ (bohu), when used in proximity, describe a situation resulting from judgment (Isa 34:11; Jer 4:23). Both prophets may be picturing judgment as the reversal of creation in which God’s judgment causes the world to revert to its primordial condition. This later use of the terms has led some to conclude that Gen 1:2 presupposes the judgment of a prior world, but it is unsound method to read the later application of the imagery (in a context of judgment) back into Gen 1:2.
Genesis 1:2 sn Darkness. The Hebrew word simply means “darkness,” but in the Bible it has come to symbolize what opposes God, such as judgment (Exod 10:21), death (Ps 88:13), oppression (Isa 9:1), the wicked (1 Sam 2:9) and in general, sin. In Isa 45:7 it parallels “evil.” It is a fitting cover for the primeval waste, but it prepares the reader for the fact that God is about to reveal himself through his works.
Genesis 1:2 tn The Hebrew term תְּהוֹם (tehom, “deep”) refers to the watery deep, the salty ocean—especially the primeval ocean that surrounds and underlies the earth (see Gen 7:11).sn The watery deep. In the Babylonian account of creation Marduk killed the goddess Tiamat (the salty sea) and used her carcass to create heaven and earth. The form of the Hebrew word for “deep” is distinct enough from the name “Tiamat” to deny direct borrowing; however, it is possible that there is a polemical stress here. Ancient Israel does not see the ocean as a powerful deity to be destroyed in creation, only a force of nature that can be controlled by God.
Genesis 1:2 tn The traditional rendering “Spirit of God” is preserved here, as opposed to a translation like “wind from/breath of God” (cf. NRSV) or “mighty wind” (cf. NEB), taking the word “God” to represent the superlative. Elsewhere in the OT the phrase refers consistently to the divine spirit that empowers and energizes individuals (see Gen 41:38; Exod 31:3; 35:31; Num 24:2; 1 Sam 10:10; 11:6; 19:20, 23; Ezek 11:24; 2 Chr 15:1; 24:20).
Genesis 1:2 tn The Hebrew verb has been translated “hovering” or “moving” (as a bird over her young, see Deut 32:11). The Syriac cognate term means “to brood over; to incubate.” How much of that sense might be attached here is hard to say, but the verb does depict the presence of the Spirit of God moving about mysteriously over the waters, presumably preparing for the acts of creation to follow. If one reads “mighty wind” (cf. NEB) then the verse describes how the powerful wind begins to blow in preparation for the creative act described in vv. 9-10. (God also used a wind to drive back the flood waters in Noah’s day. See Gen 8:1.)
Genesis 1:2 tn Heb “face.”
Genesis 1:2 sn The water. The text deliberately changes now from the term for the watery deep to the general word for water. The arena is now the life-giving water and not the chaotic abyss-like deep. The change may be merely stylistic, but it may also carry some significance. The deep carries with it the sense of the abyss, chaos, darkness—in short, that which is not good for life.

But others argues that the text is acceptable as is, and can be interpreted as “a limit he has circled.” The Hebrew verbal roots are חָקַק (khaqaq, “to engrave; to sketch out; to trace”) and חוּג (khug, “describe a circle”) respectively.

Job 38:12 tn The Hebrew idiom is “have you from your days?” It means “never in your life” (see 1 Sam 25:28; 1 Kgs 1:6).
Job 38:12 tn The verb is the Piel of יָדַע (yadaʿ, “to know”) with a double accusative.
Job 38:13 sn The poetic image is that darkness or night is like a blanket that covers the earth, and at dawn it is taken by the edges and shaken out. Since the wicked function under the cover of night, they are included in the shaking when the dawn comes up.
Job 38:14 sn The verse needs to be understood in the context: as the light shines in the dawn, the features of the earth take on a recognizable shape or form. The language is phenomenological.
Job 38:14 tn Heb “they”; the referent (the objects or features on the earth) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
Job 38:14 tc The MT reads “they stand up like a garment” (NASB, NIV) or “its features stand out like a garment” (ESV). The reference could be either to embroidered decoration on a garment or to the folds of a garment (REB “until all things stand out like the folds of a cloak”; cf. J. E. Hartley, Job[NICOT], 497, “the early light of day makes the earth appear as a beautiful garment, exquisite in design and glorious in color”). Since this is thought to be an odd statement, some suggest with Ehrlich that the text be changed to תִּצָּבַּע (titsabbaʿ, “is dyed [like a garment]”). This reference would be to the colors appearing on the earth’s surface under daylight. The present translation follows the emendation.
Job 38:15 tn Heb “the raised arm.” The words “in violence” are not in the Hebrew text, but are supplied in the translation to clarify the metaphor.
Job 38:15 sn What is active at night, the violence symbolized by the raised arm, is broken with the dawn. G. R. Driver thought the whole verse referred to stars, and that the arm is the navigator’s term for the line of stars (“Two astronomical passages in the Old Testament,” JTS 4 [1953]: 208-12).

6 God said, “Let there be an expanse[a]in the midst of the waters and let it separate water[b] from water.” 7 So God made the expanse and separated the water under the expanse from the water above it.[c] It was so.[d] 8 God called the expanse “sky.”[e] There was evening, and there was morning, a second day.

Genesis 1:6 tn The Hebrew word refers to an expanse of air pressure between the surface of the sea and the clouds, separating water below from water above. In v. 8 it is called “sky.”sn An expanse. In the poetic texts the writers envision, among other things, something rather strong and shiny, no doubt influencing the traditional translation “firmament” (cf. NRSV “dome”). Job 37:18 refers to the skies poured out like a molten mirror. Dan 12:3 and Ezek 1:22portray it as shiny. The sky or atmosphere may have seemed like a glass dome. For a detailed study of the Hebrew conception of the heavens and sky, see L. I. J. Stadelmann, The Hebrew Conception of the World (AnBib), 37-60.
Genesis 1:6 tn Heb “the waters from the waters.”
Genesis 1:7 tn Heb “the expanse.”
Genesis 1:7 tn This statement indicates that it happened the way God designed it, underscoring the connection between word and event.
Genesis 1:8 tn Though the Hebrew word can mean “heaven,” it refers in this context to “the sky.”
Yep.
NO “flat” Earth THERE!!!
”firmament” is OBVIOUSLY a notable INFERIOR translation to the English language!!!
Genesis 1:14-18
New English Translation
14 God said, “Let there be lights[a] in the expanse[b] of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them be signs[c] to indicate seasons and days and years, 15 and let them serve as lights in the expanse of the sky to give light on the earth.” It was so. 16 God made two great lights[d]—the greater light to rule over the day and the lesser light to rule over the night. He made the stars also.[e] 17 God placed the lights[f] in the expanse of the sky to shine on the earth, 18 to preside over the day and the night, and to separate the light from the darkness.[g] God saw that it was good.

Genesis 1:14 sn Let there be lights. Light itself was created before the light-bearers. The order would not seem strange to the ancient Hebrew mind that did not automatically link daylight with the sun (note that dawn and dusk appear to have light without the sun).
Genesis 1:14 tn The language describing the cosmos, which reflects a prescientific view of the world, must be interpreted as phenomenal, describing what appears to be the case. The sun and the moon are not in the sky (below the clouds), but from the viewpoint of a person standing on the earth, they appear that way. Even today we use similar phenomenological expressions, such as “the sun is rising” or “the stars in the sky.”
Genesis 1:14 tn The text has “for signs and for seasons and for days and years.” It seems likely from the meanings of the words involved that “signs” is the main idea, followed by two categories, “seasons” and “days and years.” This is the simplest explanation, and one that matches vv. 11-13. It could even be rendered “signs for the fixed seasons, that is [explicative vav (ו)] days and years.”sn Let them be for signs. The point is that the sun and the moon were important to fix the days for the seasonal celebrations for the worshiping community.
Genesis 1:16 sn Two great lights. The text goes to great length to discuss the creation of these lights, suggesting that the subject was very important to the ancients. Since these “lights” were considered deities in the ancient world, the section serves as a strong polemic (see G. Hasel, “The Polemical Nature of the Genesis Cosmology,” EvQ 46 [1974]: 81-102). The Book of Genesis is affirming they are created entities, not deities. To underscore this the text does not even give them names. If used here, the usual names for the sun and moon [Shemesh and Yarih, respectively] might have carried pagan connotations, so they are simply described as greater and lesser lights. Moreover, they serve in the capacity that God gives them, which would not be the normal function the pagans ascribed to them. They merely divide, govern, and give light in God’s creation.
Genesis 1:16 tn Heb “and the stars.” Now the term “stars” is added as a third object of the verb “made.” Perhaps the language is phenomenological, meaning that the stars appeared in the sky from this time forward.
Genesis 1:17 tn Heb “them”; the referent (the lights mentioned in the preceding verses) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
Genesis 1:18 sn In days one to three there is a naming by God; in days five and six there is a blessing by God. But on day four there is neither. It could be a mere stylistic variation. But it could also be a deliberate design to avoid naming “sun” and “moon” or promoting them beyond what they are, things that God made to serve in his creation.
Yep.
Describes the COSMOS NOT the “flat” Earth “dome”.
”flat” Earth is a wonton distortion of Biblical Spriptures and an OUTRIGHT LIE.
”flat” Earth.

What I find disturbing and concerning is the out right denial of obvious multiple facts from personal observation.
I observe the sun (and moon) obviously rising and setting when not obstructed by clouds.
There are times before the sun rises and after the sun sets that light is reflected off the bottom of clouds when there are no reflective surfaces or bodies of water any where near.
I have been to both South Africa and Botswana. In the night sky and observing for several hours, I can not see Polaris (the North Star) while I could see the Southern Cross. Observing over time, the main beam of the Southern Cross pointed to a fixed location in the Southern Star Field rotating clockwise. I saw stars appear over the Southeastern horizon and disappear over the Southwestern horizon.
There really is a fixed Southern Point in the Southern Hemispherical Star Field around which the axis of the Spherical (Geoidal) Earth turns since there is also a fixed Northern Point in the Northern Hemispherical Star Field around which the Spherical (Geoidal) Earth also turns.
These simple observable personal observances can ONLY exit with a Spherical (Geoidal) Earth NOT a “flat” Earth.
NO math or science needed.
NOR do I need to be told the Earth is Spherical (Geoidal) in shape.
I can ACTUALLY see from personal observation the Earth REALLY IS Spherical (Geoidal) in shape.
I do NOT see the sun (and moon) rotating above the surface above a “flat” Earth.
I did NOT see the stars passing over the Southern horizon at multi Mach speed when in South Africa or Botswana when observing the Southern Star Field.
In observing Psychological Operations tactics, Cult Psychological Manipulations, Multi Level Marketing Bottom Feeder Down Line Recruiting Command and Control Standard Protocols, and Narcissistic Practices, I have come to the conclusion “flat” Earth is delusional and harmful to the adherents and perpetrators to the extend they are unable, or unwilling, to discern TRUTH and lies.
The TRUTH being the Earth REALLY IS Spherical (Geoidal) in shape NOT the LIE being the Earth is “flat”.
I have always been concerned there may be Psychological Operations, Cults, Multi Level Marketing, and/or Narcissistic influences here where people attempt to prey on others.
Where there is money and/or power to be (potentially) had…….
Simple observations are the most effective to separate TRUTH from lies.
Without regard to the false narratives that EVERYTHING is a lie we were previously taught.
Fortunately, Born Again Believers in Jesus Christ with a Creation Science disposition have noted compelling evidence for why the Earth is Biblically Spherical (Geoidal) in shape NOT “flat” and “flat” Earth is openly contradictory to Biblical notations (a lie).
Oh, yeah, men REALLY did go to the MOON and return safely.
The Earth CAN NOT be both Spherical (Geoidal) AND “flat” simultaneously.”flat” Earth.
The LIES people allow themselves to believe AND project on others SHAMELESSLY.

It is as I feared. The COVID-19 Whackcinated are now SUPER SPREADERS.
Among other things………
Well worth the view as a preview to things to come.

It is as I feared………..
Hemorrhaging and spewing blood all over the place and the public panics.
Hopefully, this is a once off event NOT related to the COVID-19 Whackcinations.
Maybe carry some Bio HAZMAT solution on your person just in case……..
Passenger dies mid-flight after liters of ‘blood erupts from his mouth and nose’
Story by Melissa Koenig • 1d
Apassenger on board a Lufthansa flight from Thailand to Germany died Thursday, after his fellow travelers watched in horror as blood gushed out of his mouth and nose.
The unidentified 63-year-old German man was seen boarding the Airbus A380 in Bangkok shortly before midnight visibly sick, with “cold sweats” and “breathing much too quickly,” Karin Missfelder recounted to Swiss German outlet Blick.
At first, she said, his wife claimed they had to rush to catch the flight — which is why he wasn’t feeling well.
But after watching the man for a few moments, Missfelder — who is a nursing specialist at University Hospital in Zurich — said she informed a flight attendant that he needed to be examined by a doctor.
A young Polish man answered the call, but he reportedly only asked the man how he was feeling, felt his pulse and said he was OK.
“They gave him a little chamomile tea, but he already spit blood into the bag that his wife held out to him,” said Missfelder’s husband, Martin.
Soon, blood started spilling out of his mouth and nose.
“It was absolute horror, everyone was screaming,” Martin said.

For about half an hour afterward, flight attendants tried to perform CPR — even as the nurse said she knew it was hopeless.
When he finally went still and the captain announced the man’s death, “it was dead quiet on board,” she said.
Staff then carried the man’s body into the galley of the plane, as it turned and headed back to Thailand.

There, the passengers said they had to wait two hours without any guidance from Lufthansa before they were finally booked on another flight to Germany, with a stopover in Hong Kong.
But for Missfelder, the worst part was that the man’s wife now had to go through customs alone.
Flight attendants tried to perform CPR on the man. Martin & Karin Missfelder via BLICKPassenger dies mid-flight after liters of ‘blood erupts from his mouth and nose’© Provided by New York PostShe said she regrets that she did not try to help.
“I should have intervened, but I saw that a doctor was looking after him, so I didn’t want to get involved,” she said, noting that “the man looked so bad, I don’t understand why the captain took off.”
The Post has reached out to Lufthansa for comment.
