Every level of sensory experience and intuitive observation confirms that the Earth is Flat. Flat Earth Theory, no longer the backwater province of fringe conspiracy and religious dogma, is quickly moving to replace round earth belief as the prevailing paradigm of social thought. A multilayered synthesis of confirmable observation and critical inference, FET stands ready to bear the torch of knowledge that will usher human progress into the coming centuries. And it is a near certainty that ONLY FET can offer the wide ranging flexibility and intrinsic curiosity necessary to revolutions in technology, medicine, and education. Science, an antiquated and ineffective system of knowledge production, will soon fade into the obscurity of outmoded and superseded epistemic structures. It already shows the obvious signs of decay and stagnation that characterize ideas which lay claim to "progress" in a world that has moved on. Science, (and belief in the round earth with it) will disappear for the same reason VHS did: a better alternative. Flat Earth is the compelling answer to the perennial question "what works best?"
Those who still champion round earth scientism cannot really be blamed: for many years science worked. It freed Western society from the yoke of religious oppression perpetuated by the then predominate (and similarly stagnant) Catholic church. It played its part in the emergence of Industrial innovation and generated new perspectives on the nature of contagion within medical practice. But like Catholicism in its day, contemporary science exercises an unchecked hegemony upon all levels of social thought and practice. People no longer understand fundamental truths about nature. They [i]believe[/i] them. They consider cursory, Discovery channel understandings equal to certainty while scorning any intellectual framework that dares to operate outside the purview of their universalistic, methodological thinking. One need look no further than Flat Earth forums and web pages to see the hateful attitudes and vitriolic language that spews from the scientifically "enlightened", in order to grasp the over zealous nature of round earth scientism and its hold upon the religious proclivities of the Western mind. It is the disease of confirmation bias, the stubborn weed of certainty that chokes out the imaginative soul of any thought system which dares to do good for humanity.
Science has done its part. And the inexorable march of human creativity presses upon the fortifications of dogmatic thought. Round earth science will not out last the century. It will probably not even outlast the next few decades...
