A lot of the flat earthers say that geographical anomalies in Antarctica are proof of their theory.

This is obviously misinformation to hide the existence of the HUGE underground Nazi spaceport that exists under the ice. (y)

I don't know why people put so much effort into not just believing, but preaching to others, that the earth is flat. It might be - but there's A HUGE probability that it's not - but what difference does it really make? Most people don't travel far enough to see if it is or isn't, so :shrug:

Most know it's not flat, but they profit from their click-bait, so they pretend it is.
In my experience, most people don't even pretend the world is flat.

There is zero probability that the earth is flat.

There is great probability that my drink will be flat before the earth is proved flat or my wife will be flat.

Well, technically there is a chance. I mean it's probably one in a [insert largest number in the world], but it is still a possibility.

I'd guess that chance would be substantially smaller than the probability of a sperm whale materialising from nothing a mile above my house and crushing me just as I post this.
Maybe. But, whatever it is, it's still more than zero.

If you don’t think the probability of the Earth being flat is zero, do you believe that the probability of anything is zero?

Just a couple of examples to illustrate:

1066: William the Bastard didn’t defeat Harold and be crowned King on Christmas Day. (This requires belief in historical record, and we all know how that can be manipulated).

E=MC2: This requires belief in scientific experts and we all know where believing experts gets you.

Is there anything where you believe the probability of anything is zero?

So in your probability world, there is a very small chance that 2+2 does not equal 4.

No wonder bookmakers are keen to offer odds that the moon is made of cheese.
