Earth is flat, the bible says so. And I'm going to get to see the edge with my own eyes! This is truly the trip of a lifetime! I already paid for it and everything, they sent me an email (that got filtered to spam for some reason) and said they were selling the tickets for a cruise to the edge of the disk of the earth!
Do us all a favor, take Trump with you and push him off the edge please. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Don't.
Do not go anywhere near the edge of the Earth.
Here below we see the album cover of Kansas "point of know return".
It isn't worth possibly falling off the edge and falling into oblivion.

Good luck finding the edge. Just so you know, some of the verses in the Bible are idiomatic expressions. You don't take them literally.
I don't know my Bible too well, because I'm not religious, but I don't believe it says anywhere that the earth is flat? Please correct me if I'm wrong, I'd be genuinely interested in reading the passage where it says this.
There's dozens of references to the ends of the Earth, the four corners of the Earth, the Earth being unmovable, etc.
Things get twisted and lost in translation over time, but if you read the bible it seems pretty clear that the authors strongly believed that the Earth was an unmovable flat disk at the center of the universe. The fact that the Catholic Church banned people from suggesting otherwise until ~250 years ago should tell you a lot.
I mean, they already gave you the exact verse, but alright. "He sits enthroned above the circle of the earth, and its people are like grasshoppers. He stretches out the heavens like a canopy, and spreads them out like a tent to live in."
I got that from the first google search result that came up: https://www.biblestudytools.com/topical-verses/bible-verses-about-flat-earth/

It doesn't just say it once or twice, it's a regularly recurring theme. It's treated as something so obvious and well known that it doesn't even need to be outright stated, just like a book today would talk about going around the world or reference days and years without explicitly saying the Earth is a sphere that orbits the sun. And if you think the above quotes are too vague to be taken literal, consider the fact that the same could be said of the entire book. Those same quotes were used to attack anybody who said the Earth wasn't flat and wasn't at the center of the universe until the 1700's just like similarly vague quotes are used to attack women and LGBT folk to this day.
Actually the bible really does say so. In fact, the subtitle says "the earth is flat", though bibles are often printed without the subtitle to not scare christians away
I was very interested with the flat earth theory until I saw this video linked below. Its only one minute long. Clearly shows a curve.

It doesn't need to expressly say that, at the time that was simply a given. The belief that the Earth is an unmovable flat disk at the center of the universe is referenced dozens of times. That's why it was considered heresy to say otherwise until the 18th century.
I think you are just a person who just want to get a free ticket to space.
"Real bible"?
Today's bible has been twicked out so many time since it popped out, I doubt it's the original version.
Then why not get the original version? The one before it popped out the first time.
