Is it true the world is round?

[banned-dot]

Or should we stick with the idea that it is really flat and we will fall off if we go too far?

[whiffey]

Do you want fact or opinion ?

Can I use google? Can I post youtubes? Can I talk pigswill?

I think it's square, because you can go to the four corners of the earth....

If you look on google earth, everywhere is in broad daylight. No matter where you look, China, America, Norway Argentina, France, Australia,or Israel, there is no night time thus proving that the earth is indeed flat and the photo was taken during the day

. In my opinion we will not fall off due to a special glue that the pixies and fairies spread on our feet when we sleep

well i think it is probably flat and i bet if I googled long enough i would find some supporters for the theory .

The world is shaped like my head which is also shaped like Jesus head. ;-)

Its not flat but neither is is round as in spherical like a ball.
the equator is 6378 miles whilst from pole to pole the distance is 6356 miles .
so with different radius its generally believed to be shaped more like a pumpkin.
So you were close but sadly no cigar.
Glad to have been of enlightenment to you.

The earth exists in a vacuum and is held together by wire, which is why it waves in wind that doesn't exists and wanders erratically around the moon.

The world isnt square. Its round and flat. Its also on four elephants who stand on the back of a giant turtle.

Nope - sorry. You couldn't travel to the far corners of the earth if it was round. Someone's been telling you fairy stories. x
