Sorry, but the earth being flat is such an obvious error that it's hard to believe anyone still thinks that way except for groups of natives in Africa and such. I would tend to believe though that Iraqis and other middle easterners would be more apt to believe in a flat earth given the control religion has It's actually quite surprising how much thought goes into it, actually; terribly misguided thought, but thought nonetheless. |

I knew a woman who was a flat-earther. I had classes with her, and several other classmates and I would talk about various things during breaks, which is when it came forth. Of course, it also took an hour trying to explain how water with a high iron content could make granite rocks in a lawn watered with it look orange, and even then I'm not sure she ever understood that... She also used a credit card with a 30% interest rate or something, over her card that had <20% interest, because the physical card was prettier.
Oh yeah, and she was in training for being a cryptologic linguist with Korean. Makes you feel real safe now with what North Korea is doing...
