Was the Earth ever flat? Well science is divided on the matter but many now believe that the Earth was flat up until the global flood

that wiped out the dinosaurs 4000 years ago. Indeed many of these scientists believe that it was the waters that cascaded down from the firmament that rounded off the Earth and changed it from being flat into (in the words of Mike deGrasse Tyson) 'an oblong Haemorrhoid'.

I am aware that this post is very scientific and that many of you simply do not have the science background that is required to debate this type of thing but it would be fascinating to hear your views. I thank you.

As a side issue here, that Mike made the switch from boxing to becoming such a renowned astrophysicist is remarkable and truly inspiring. A lesson for us all. All things are possible.

@SW-User Imagine giving up a great boxing career for teaching astro physics!

@Nitedoc I tend to think that even when Mike was punching hard and eating ears his heart was in the evolution of galaxies and the actual shape of our earth.

@SW-User I'll bet he was studying astrophysics all along and never said anything about it.

@SW-User Probably had an ear in his mouth when someone asked him about it.
