I will call you out on this - show me in scripture where it says the earth is flat! (FYI - there are verses that tell it's not)

I recommend The Flat Earth Society:

Now show me the verse that tells it's not.

I agree that the same bible verses can be interpreted both ways but why beat around the bush. There’s no single verse that explicitly says “Lo the earth is round”. But there’s some verses that people may consstrue or misconstrue that the earth was seen as flat back then: check out these verses-

I looked at it - thanks for sharing. Here's something for your consideration:

The irony of choosing Job 38:5, 12-14, Isaiah 11:12, 40:22, and Revelation 7:1, 20:7 to sustain the claim that the Bible is a flat-earth book is that these biblical texts better fit a spherical Earth than they do a flat Earth. While it would be an overinterpretation to conclude that these texts explicitly teach that Earth is a sphere, nowhere in the Bible do we find any text saying that Earth is flat. The Bible remains the only holy book for which we can say that it contains no provable errors or contradictions.

Actually I came across that same website! But yeah I do agree it depends on how you interpret the verses. Anyways, we’re getting off topic I think about flat earthers. I only meant it as an analogy to use for using the Bible in support of gay marriage that Ohio brought up.

The easy answer is, they didn't have telescopes back then.
