There is no distortion. To accept the flat earth as a theory is to accept it as theory.Age wrote: ↑Tue Apr 13, 2021 11:41 amYou can 'try to' keep twisting and distorting things further and further. But you said what you said, and if you can NOT back up and support what you want to say, or said, then I suggest not saying 'it'.Eodnhoj7 wrote: ↑Tue Apr 13, 2021 12:10 amAccepting the earth as flat is to accept it as a theory.

But you said, " 'to accept' is 'to assume' ". Which means you could accept/assume ABSOLUTELY ANY thing as being "what is present as existing", like, for example, accepting/assuming that the earth, presently as existing, is flat or at the absolute center of the Universe, and that this means that you are "open", correct?
To me, accepting what is present as existing would NOT entail ANY 'assuming' AT ALL. In fact, to me, the VERY OPPOSITE could be construed. That is; ASSUMING something is true or right, in and of itself, is NOT accepting what is present as existing.
You go around and around and/or adding more and more, while never actually saying anything Truly meaningful, to me.
I suggest just saying one thing, and STICKING TO 'that'.
Dually all things as existing necessitate some truth through the fact they exist alone.
