We started a podcast! Listen to a follow-up conversation with one of the Flat Earthers in this first episode: 👉anchor.fm/radicalempathy 👈 - leave us a voice message after listening! After many requests, we're happy to share this episode of Middle Ground with you all! In this episode, we explore belief, science, and how our experiences shape our worldview. We'd love to hear your thought

,,I don’t think you’re uneducated, I think you are wrongly educated” Somebody give this man a prize

“I’m an astrophysicist” “Well I’m a critical thinker”

Some people are building spaceships to explore the final frontier, some are seeking the truth about energy and matter, and some still doubt the shape of the planet we live on.

"Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe." -Albert Einstein

Flat earthers: "ThEy ArE UnEdUcAtEd" 2 minutes later: " I don't get the question'

The contrast between the two groups is staggering. The scientists consistently come from a place of curiosity, sincere exploration of facts, and willingness to hear others out. In contrast, the other three individuals constantly framed themselves as victims of some (unclearly defined) persecution; repeatedly going on about how they are being silenced, and lied to, and attacked for their "knowledge". If I knew absolutely nothing about the Earth's shape, and I saw this video, I would absolutely side with the scientists based on this interaction alone. The conspiracy theorists have such an intense air of smug arrogance to them, that I wouldn't be inclined to believe anything they have to say. Anyone who claims to know everything on a subject, but refuses to listen to what others have to say about it, has instantly revealed themselves to be an unreliable source of information.

It’s annoying that the flat earthers refuse to let the scientist speak. No self control or respect for other people.

“Hi, I have a professional career as a physicist” “Hi, I’m a critical thinker and I’ve jumped out of an airplane”

As a Christian who understands the world is a globe, this was mind boggling to watch.

Shellys "flat-earth" journey was brought about from grief. She misses her husband and following this just brings him back for her.

'I don't think you guys are uneducated, I think you are wrongly educated.' How to politely offend your opponent 101

i was laughing at the "The other side is uneducated" and the one scientist said "they think that we are uneducated?"

Shelly “I have the evidence!” Also Shelly (shows or states zero evidence)

“nasa says the earth is flat” also them: “don’t trust nasa”

The guy who said “I’d like to tear them to pieces” is the reason we can’t have calm debates lmao

“I’m a critical thinker, and I jump out of planes!” 🤣🤣🤣 dead
