I never said it was advancement after the bible though?

In fact in the very post you quote I state the belief in a flat earth wasn't anything to do with it.

'Believing the world was flat wasn't a "religious" thing and was later proven incorrect by advancement in science and research that showed the earth was actually spherical.'

It wasn't 'later' proven it was known milennia before.

"Later proven" as in proven after people believed the earth was flat and were proven wrong.

Not proven after the bible.

The wording of your post does not suggest that, but I'll let it go save you confusing yourself further.

I've not confused myself. I know what I posted and stand by it. You've misunderstood my post but instead of admitting so and moving on you try to turn the tables. Standard Kizzy.

The bible wasn't even mentioned in the post you quote yet you thought I was referring to after it was written, that's your fault not mine.

Moving on...

Could you confirm from what was it 'later' proven from?

You say 'later' what is the 6th century later than...the dawn of time?

If so that would be a given wouldn't it that at some time since the dawn of time it was proven, is that what you are standing by?

No I like things very clear and logical, if it was proven in the 6 century BC then why is it suggested in the bible the earth is flat?
Is it that most knew the earth was round and yet those who wrote the bible were wrong?
Makes you wonder what else are they wrong about.

It doesn't say anywhere in the bible that the earth is flat. Isiah 40 22 says "... He sits enthroned above the circle of the earth..." and the suggestion has been that it means the earth is circular, but flat. However, the Hebrew word for a circle can also mean a sphere.

So, you're just going to make statements without bothering to back them up to add to the actual discussion? Ok.

Also, your attempt at patronising me with comments about what God thinks doesn't work my love. Try someone that cares.

I stated revelations... you're the one who hasn't backed up your knowledge of the subject, I haven't patronised you
