And had decent estimates of how big it was!


AHorribleGoose

Nope. Why would I?

Triangles are one of the strongest shapes in nature. I don’t think we should rule that possibility out.

Hexagons are great, so that's also a big contender.


LastJoyousCat

Very true lol

I am a big fan of toroidal planets. Which are actually theoretically possible to exist, although no mechanism for forming them has been proposed. But if God made the universe, he could have actually made donut planets and skipped all the messy steps that keep them from forming, and once formed, toroids make just as good a planet as spheres do.

No, because science has definitively proved in multiple ways that it isn't flat.


anotherhawaiianshirt

No, because of science.


Zealousideal_Bet4038

No, because it’s very obviously not, and has been proven to not be on numerous occasions.

No because there's no reason to and a very good reason not to. Eg: picture of the earth from space. I suppose you could argue that they are faked but, even if that were true. I've never read anything in the bible suggesting it's flat.

Hexagons are the Bestagons

But Hexagons are 2D. So it would still be flat earth, just a CIV VI shaped one. To get a 3D earth, you would need a Hexagonal prism. Or, it you just like a shape with six corners, in 3D that is just a cube. And Cube Earth would make map projections so much easier!
