I dont get it.
This guy was very clever. Look at that rocket. A steam powered rocket, what is more.That takes skill and intelligence to build. He had previously flown it it successfully.
How can someone with the intelligence to build such a rocket subscribe to the flat earth nonsense? Where simple experiments and elementary reasoning confirms a spherical earth? Aristotle and others figured this out over 2000 years ago. Today we have a plethora of modern evidence and tests which can be added to prove it.
Yet this guy, who is capable of building a rocket, which previously successfully flew, a feat requiring ingenuity, engineering, physics and math. That requires rational thought and critical thinking, unbiased observation, experimentation. Yet he throws all this, all reasoning and evidence, out the window and says the earth is flat. I dont understand how can someone can hold such contradictory thought processes in their head.
