Needn't go that far; flying on any commercial jetliner will allow you to see the earth's curvature. I had a beautiful view of it when I flew into London at dawn several years ago.
What's implausible about lifeless goo becoming life, and transforming into water animals, then land animals, then diversing into millions and millions of distinct lifeforms over the millenia, eventually reaching what we have today with no evidence of any of this other than minor changes in traits over hundreds of years? Are you serious?

And, you proved that the world is coin-shaped.
