Actually Moorad should draw a straight line. From Genesis 1 6-8, Exodus 20, 4 and Isaiah 40, 22 it is manifestly clear that any reasonable exegesis will take this to be a flat earth. Thus all who take the bible literally will believ e in a flat earth. If they dont they have no grounds for a 6 day creation

Moorad,
What is your scale? 1/10^9, certainly. 1/10^3, can you produce that slight a curvature?

Whenever I teach the notion of gravitation and how it affects objects with mass/energy, free falling or otherwise, I draw a straight line on the black (green) board to denote the surface of the earth. Should I start drawing that line curved?
