Now we know that sun is not 93m miles away but is close and small, so we can now prove flat earth with this.

You have to believe that you live on a spinning ball, but your belief does not have any foundations, so it is blind.
I can see, feel and sense that I live on a created unmovable enclosed living environment, flat earth.

For start you can properly educate yourself here at flat earth thread: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.16147971

Now, now. When your tummy gets all tied up in knots because of the things I post, why don't you simply ignore me? No. You have to keep on coming back for more, don't you?

You know I don't think he could be paid.
I mean his comments are dumb as hell and really annoying but they can't be paid by anyone because they're not useful to anyone!

Humanity or at least the intelligent parts of it have known that the earth is round since 240 B.C.
It is is not something you have to believe. You can simply redo the ancient experiment yourself and prove it once more.

A man of faith is an idiot

The definition of faith is believing in something without evidence, or contrary to the evidence... this is stupid, don't be an idiot

Neither, he is a man of faith.

It appears that the flat-earther's figures are based on sun elevation data at just two particular latitudes, perhaps even Eratosthenes' values. flat earthers may have picked these out of some book, and when the calculation was finished, they looked no further. For if they had done the calculation with a variety of latitudes, including large latitude differences, conflicting results would have been obtained.

For two towns having latitudes within about 30° of each other, reasonably consistent results are obtained. But when larger baselines are used, the triangulation would give a much smaller distance to the sun. For a 70° latitude difference the distance to the sun comes out less than half that for a 10° difference.

How about airplanes and earth satellites in orbit around a flat earth. And what about airliners going around the earth? What about earth satellites? They are merely traveling in loop orbits. What makes them do this? Flat-earthers do not say. Flat-earthers shun any form of gravitational force. They consider gravity to be a mystical or occult idea. Things fall, they say, simply because they are heavy—no other explanation is needed. What about the moon flights and the pictures from space showing a round planet. It's must all be a hoax, an elaborate movie production.

He (Cavendish) considered the problem for years, until in 1797, at age 67, he began his own experiments. He started with a torsion balance apparatus given to him by his friend, the geologist Reverend John Michell, who had been interested in doing the experiment himself but wasn’t able to carry it out before he died. Realizing that Michell’s equipment was inadequate to measure the tiny gravitational force between two small metal spheres, Cavendish set about tinkering until he had a more precise setup.

He built a large dumbbell, with two-inch lead spheres stuck to the ends of a six-foot long wooden rod. The rod was suspended from a wire held at the center, and was free to rotate. A second dumbbell with two twelve-inch lead spheres weighing 350 pounds each was then brought near the first so that the large spheres would attract the smaller ones, exerting a slight torque on the suspended rod. Cavendish would then painstakingly watch for hours to observe the rod’s oscillations.

This would provide a measure of the gravitational force of the larger spheres on the smaller ones. And since the density of the spheres was known and the gravitational attraction between Earth and the spheres could be measured by weighing the spheres, the ratio the two forces could be used to determine Earth’s density.

Since the gravitational force between the spheres is so weak, the tiniest air current could ruin the delicate experiment. Cavendish placed the apparatus in a closed room to keep out extraneous air currents. He used a telescope to observe the experiments through a window, and set up a pulley system that made it possible to move the weights from outside. The room was kept dark to avoid temperature differences in different parts of the room affecting the experiment.  

Cavendish relentlessly tracked down potential sources of error. He rotated the spheres in case they had picked up some magnetization. He observed the attraction of the rods without the spheres on the ends. He tried different types of wire to support the apparatus.

After agonizing over every possible complicating factor, Cavendish finally reported his results in June 1798 in a 57-page paper in the Transactions of the Royal Society entitled “Experiments to Determine the Density of the Earth.” He reported that the density of Earth was 5.48 times the density of water. (The currently accepted value is 5.52).

Others later repeated the experiment, using similar apparatus, and for almost a century no one achieved any improvement over Cavendish’s original measurement.

Simply they are deceived, quantity of years matters not.

Hmm so how much are you makin' ?
I wonder are you making more for your paid trolling than me ?
i hope not 

You would NOT believe who my boss is that pays me !
