Lorraine Day and the Flat Earth

See the video talked about here:

Dr Lorraine Day, who is a medical doctor talks about the flat earth. There are many critics of the flat earth so why talk about this Lorraine Day, you may ask? The reason why is that she does talk about other conspiracies and talks about the people and ethnic group behind most of our problems. Dr Day also is spot on when it comes to health and how to get well and stay well naturally. She also exposes the lies of World War II. For all these reasons she is called the labels that we are, such as: conspiracy theorists, extremists, bigots, etc.

This is a case, where I’ve mentioned before, “not to throw the baby out with the bathwater.” So, Lorraine does have good information.

What I have found wrong with what she writes are on certain topics when she talks about the Bible. For example, she thinks that Christians should be pacifists and let God do all our fighting. She uses, as an example that if you are attacked, you should run away. LOL! How utterly crazy is that? Think about it.

If you are old, how can you run away? If you are a young athlete, you still can’t outrun a bullet. I point this out to show the other side of Lorraine Day. Being a Bible student, which she claims she is, she is without excuse to say that Christians should be pacifists.

Now, on to the flat earth. Today I found a video that she posted where she slams the flat earth believers.

Here is what she said basically. “The evidence I’ve seen videos, I really can’t understand it even though I have several advanced degrees. So, I don’t know what they are talking about. So, here is the answer. If the earth was flat, we would not have a 24-hour days. You would never see the Sun go down. It would never go down; it comes up in the East and sets in the West. So, it would continue to go west indefinitely. It would get smaller and smaller and smaller until you couldn’t see it any more. If we lived on a flat earth and it goes all they way to the east, how would it come up again? Does it go around this apparently flat English muffin of a world? What’s on the bottom? How is it that you can sail all the way around the world and come back to where you started?”  

“How does it (Sun) get back so it can come up in the East? It would have to go from West to East in some nations and it never does.

“I would like to hear some comments.”

Here are my comments. I’ll take it one sentence at a time.

Lorraine: The evidence I’ve seen videos, I really can’t understand it even though I have several advanced degrees

Craig: First, I doubt she saw some videos and if she did, she saw ones that did not talk about how is it possible to have a 24-hour day on a flat earth. As you know, there are many topics to talk about. So, she picks one she hasn’t seen to talk about.

I really have to laugh when she said she “has several advanced degrees.” The degrees that she does have is in medicine, which includes biology. So, what does that have to do with the flat earth? What does that have to do with perspective? With water seeking its own level? With the physics that you need a solid closed container if two different atmospheres are to exist side-by-side?

This is where a saying that I created applies: “You don’t have to be a rocket scientist to understand this. But if you are, you will not be able to understand it.” Which means, if you got so much “education” you’d be completely brainwashed. But if you did not go through this brainwashing in universities, you will be able to understand it.

The ironic thing with Day is, that much of what she learned, she found out most of it a lie and she admits it! And she learned this from how to heal yourself naturally and from her recovery from stage-4 cancer that she had about 30 years ago. She admits that most of medicine and the nature of disease is a lie.

Lorraine: So, here is the answer. If the earth was flat we would not have a 24-hour days.

Craig: Isn’t that amazing, she gives her answer to the flat earth facts that we would not have a 24-hour day. The whole video she made is less than 5 minutes long and all she talks about is how can 24-days be created? Yet, we know that there are many, many things to be discussed to answer the many questions people have on the flat earth.

Lorraine: You would never see the Sun go down.

Craig: You see the Sun go down by the simple fact that it goes out of sight. Now Day is supposed to know how the human eye functions if she studied biology, which is part of getting a medical degree. So, she knows that the eyes can not see the smallest objects; that is why we use microscopes.

Lorraine: It comes up in the East and sets in the West. So, it would continue to go west indefinitely

Craig: What flat earth believer says that the Sun keeps travelling West? This implies that it goes off in space somewhere. She made this up herself and did not get it from a flat earther! Then, she contradicts herself, as in the next sentence she said (referring to the above) that it would get smaller and smaller. So, she admits that the human eye can only see so much. But earlier she said “You would never see the Sun go down.” Daa.

Lorraine: If we lived on a flat earth and it goes all the way to the East, how would it come up again?

Craig: Simple. The Sun goes in a circle (elliptical circle, of course). What’s so difficult to know about this? You don’t need an “advanced degree” to know this.

Lorraine: Does it go around this apparently flat English muffin of a world? What’s on the bottom?

Craig: At this point, Lorraine can’t conceive that the Sun goes around on a flat surface. Just like you can go around your block. You don’t live on a ball, but you can go in one direction and end up where you started from.

Lorraine: How is it that you can sail all the way around the world and come back to where you started?”  

Craig: This is simple, as I explained previously. Remember about “a rocket scientist” that I mentioned before.

Lorraine: “How does it (Sun) get back so it can come up in the East? It (Sun) would have to go from West to East in some nations and it never does.

Craig: How does Lorraine figure that when the Sun travels in a circle on a flat earth that some nations would have the Sun rising in the West?!

All one has to do is, take a flat board, have a torch (flashlight), hold it fairly close to the board, move it around a clock-wise direction and see that it just lights part of the board. Now, you can’t do this while you are standing up and have a one-foot square board and say, “See, the Sun lights the whole world at the same time.” No, the Sun is not 93 million miles from earth but within the dome; that God created the Sun size and distance so as the result is what we have today – that just a certain part of the earth is lighted as it makes its circular motion across the earth.

Since Lorraine is really into the study of the Bible, she either never saw or ignored the articles/videos that discusses the nature of earth in the Bible. All she has to do is go to a better such engine such as: Yandex.com and search “Christian flat earth” and check out what she sees there.

Lorraine: “I would like to hear some comments.”

Craig: Well, the thing is that her comments are turned off. That’s real convenient! Perhaps done on purpose so she doesn’t have to respond! Lol.

On the video there are 39 Likes and 25 Dislikes. This is a high Dislike ratio, so there are many that disagree with Day.
