Destiny, The Speaker, And The Importance of Flat Earth Thought

Cant believe the summer is almost over. It has been great. Destiny made it great. I feel like every encounter with The Speaker only reinforces how immersive the game's story line can be. From the first moment you meet, The Speaker introduces you into a universe that is filled with an unspoken wonder. You feel like life hangs in the balance between light and darkness. To me, the darkness represents ignorance and the light represents thought. Thought, honest intellectual thought, is very much the difference between light and darkness. I know that the world is Flat. But why I know this, and why I think what know is true, that is more important than reality itself. [url=https://www.twitch.tv/krishnasprophet/profile]As my new weekly twitch stream: Flat Earth & Thought[/url] will hopefully show, how we think defines reality. For example, science claims that gravity is somehow caused by a massive object bending space time. No one knows (not even the scientists) how to explain why this happens; yet people believe it, and that belief defines their reality. For example, believing in gravity makes it easier to believe that every picture from space is true. [b]However, gravity (the effect we see of things "falling") can just as easily be explained by the motion of the Flat Earth upward through space. [/b] [u][i]I respect both ideas. I know that one reflects reality and the other does not. But I respect everyone that thinks the world is round. Thats because thought is precious: Destiny shows us that. Thought is light. And even the wrong thought, if you understand why you think it, is a light that can banish the darkness...[/i][/u] [spoiler]These and other issues will be discussed as I play Destiny tomorrow, live on Twitch starting at 8pm eastern time. Feel free to tune in. [/spoiler]

    The only reason you think the world is flat is because you have only ever seen a picture of it on a flat piece of paper or your flat panel TV, go buy a globe, mebby even one of those light up ones ... they are fun btw just to keep this on topic you play a game set on a spherical earth with a physics engine based on the rules of gravity ... 🌎🌍🌏 omg these 3 emotes of the earth mean the earth can't be flat and have 2 sides, lol owned by emojis Btw I have a question, on your theory, how thick is this flat world of yours ?and where is the centre point of you flat earth? also which side am I on in the uk, the upside or the down side, I just ask coz I would rather be on the upside coz I don't like being upside down !
