Then how did you get to the other side?

For your consideration ...
First, do try to scale the size down the pictures you post. It's pretty simple. Click on the photo after embedding and adjust them smaller.
Why is it we can visibly see other planets rotating on their axis, in their orbits, as well as the sun, which show that they are in fact round as a ball? With that knowledge, that all other planets and celestial bodies are round, why is it that only the Earth is flat?
Why hasn't some adventurer at some point, gone to the edge of your flat Earth to document and photograph what is seen? Why has no one yet circumnavigated the very edge of flat Earth's perimeter? Why has no one yet gone to the perimeter's edge and scaled down the side of the Earth to see what is there and what is under and on the belly of the flat Earth?
Why do we have ice and snow packs at the North and South poles, if the Earth is indeed flat? Since as the sun rises and sets everyday, there would be equal amounts of the sun's energy shared over the entirely of a flat Earth. Because, well, a flat sun would be focusing its energy equally, more so than a round sun which directs its energy in a radius manner.
Inquiring minds, seeking logical information, scientific proof/evidence/verification/confirmation, and all that. Please be precise as possible for all the lay persons here that might not have sufficient knowledge or a fully informed scientific background. Pretend the forum class here is in Space and Celestial Bodies 101, and you are the tenured professor.
Thank you for your cooperation in this very interesting and profound subject.

You poor sad thing...no clue how gravitational forces act, eh? Check this out...you moron...a place where I've spent a lot of time working.

That is definitely a cool place. Visited a couple of times for non Navy related work. A little humid in there though.
Oh look, it must be rush hour on the beltway. Don't miss that.

A little humid...yep. I've spent weeks and weeks working on Carriage 3...the high-speed carriage in that long building. Spend a lot of time working in the MASK facility too..another humid space that is barely visible upper right in that photo. ;-)

This is a good question, because many do not know the truth behind the Sun. The sun, in fact, is a small and local celestial body that rotates around the flat Earth. It is contained within the firmament (Genesis 1:6-8 KJV) and is not 93 million miles away like NA$A tells you. The only "evidence" we have of other planets is doctored images. I believe I've already explained what's on the edge of the earth, with the great Antarctic Ice Wall. There's reasons why you're not allowed to fly over there... because they don't want you finding out.
Just because the Earth is flat does not mean everything else is flat. Also, spare me the snide sarcasm.

Ahhhh. Ok. I have lots of good questions. You want us to go with an edited version of the Bible by a recalcitrant King, that was originally written by men wearing funny clothes, during a time when any scientific knowledge was non-existent, to minimal at best?
So exactly what is it we are seeing when anyone can actually observe the planets in our solar system with their own eyes through a telescope?
And, if the does sun rotate around a flat Earth, how is it that there are seasons? Such as winter in the north, while following a meridian line directly to the south, it is summer? Also, please explain the causation of the Coriolis effect on a flat Earth.

Yes, because God created the earth. It's really quite that simple.

Answer all the questions I directed to your flat Earth position. All of them.

I'm not going to because you wanted to be smug. Refer to the diagram about flat earth seasons.

Wait a minute. Have to revisit this. Are you saying, as the image shows, we are spinning round on a flat Earth like a record does on a record player? Why hasn't anyone been flung off the Earth as it spins as one might on a fast spinning merry-go-round?
So many questions . . . . . . . . .

How far can you dig down? Is there a bottom?
you are just making this chit up, aren't you? Yr hilarious.
Good question. Is the earth like a deep-dish Chicago pizza, or a thin-crust Sicilian pizza? If I dig down too far and fall through, then what? So many questions I haz.
Might be the bedrock is made of Ledos type crust.
I wonder where the water goes when it overflows the edges.
If a sub gets close to an ocean floor sinkhole, can they hear a flushing sound?
