An invisible dragon,.. Tila Tequila,.. Santa,.. Tooth Fairy....come on men. This crap ain't even on the same level.

Technical Tom? You're a fool if you think a sphere and a circle are the same thing. A circle is flat. Any person of above average intelligence knows that.
How is it in the same chapter, the author refers to the earth as a circle AND says it has four corners? This shit isn't meant to be interpreted. They're stories, nothing more.

Okay, I didn't wanna post again because every good argument has been posted several times now. Every bullshit pro-religion aspect has been invalidated. Still it gets ignored which doesn't really surprise me but still...
QT, how old are you? You just can't be serious with this circle, sphere shit.
I don't wanna make fun of you, but how old are you, I'm very curious.

This wasn't about what 'round' can mean at all. It was about the difference of a circle and a sphere/ball and you know that. ::)
I found a few lines on the book of Isaiah where it's quite accurately pointed out why your interpretation lacks this 'logic'.
Make sure to read slowly for better comprehension:
"Hopeful believers in the scientific wisdom found in the Bible [...] point to a verse in Isaiah which they think shows that the Bible writers knew the earth was a sphere. They believe that the word "circle" could actually mean "sphere," since both are round, but they ignore Isaiah's use of a different word in another verse where he speaks of a "ball." Here are the two verses:
To whom then will ye liken God? ....It is he that sitteth upon the CIRCLE (chuwg) of the earth (Isaiah 40:18-23
He will surely violently turn and toss thee like a BALL (duwr) into a large country: there shalt thou die, and there the chariots of thy glory shall be the shame of thy lord's house. (Isaiah 22:18)
There exists a simple interpretation of "circle of the earth" which does not imply a spherical earth. On a hill overlooking a wide expanse free of tall trees and other hills the horizon appears as a perfect circle, 360 degrees of blue sky. If Isaiah meant to tell us the earth was a globe, he would have used another word. A circle is not a ball, nor is a ball a circle. Everyone knew what a "circle" was in those times; it meant the same then as it means today." http://sol.sci.uop.edu/~jfalward/Flat_Earth.htm
Honestly, I had to laugh a little, imagining your eyes skimming through this short text while it's not even entering your brain, excactly like everytime before, when it would have contradicted what you have been told to believe.
Seriously man, I hope for you they don't find 'evidence' that you should sexually please your reverend,
because you would even buy that... :banana_dss:
