Why Do People Still Think the Earth is Flat?

Raleigh, North Carolina, was the site of the first Flat Earth International Conference a couple of weeks ago. A few hundred people traveled from all over to meet with like-minded people who reject the notion that the Earth is a ball hurling through space. They believe what they see -and the things they choose to read and watch on the internet. They see the Earth as a flat disc, with the Antarctic as an icy barrier that keeps us from falling off the edge.

BBC News spoke to several people at the conference about their reasons for attending. The next Flat Earth International Conference will be in Denver in November of 2018. -via Laughing Squid
