Trolling is not science, thank the forces of good for that. You are not only a troll, but an extremely odious and arrogant one. Your so-called video's are not science, they are political based tracts with one agenda, to get votes. You push ANY assshole with that agenda. That makes you the poster boy for trollness.
You would do MUCH better on a soapbox in ...[text shortened]... you bring a few bottles of rum and pass that around, you will get a splendid audience that way.

It is NOT a place to "shout down" others who do not believe as you do, nor is it a place to try to restrict what others have to say. Many have tried and are trying, these attempts will naturally fail.
Some try to browbeat others' faith with diatribes on what they believe about your beliefs and attempt to remind you (yet again) that they do not believe it and therefore you should just shut up. These attempts will fail as well. It's a public forum, if you don't like what is said, you can always go somewhere else.
I say, Have discernment in all things. Including others' motives. Especially others' motives.
Respect should be given to the idea that not everyone has the same opinions. There will be disagreement, but no one is any less of a human being merely because they hold other opinions. It would be well to remember this.
(DISCLAIMER: Ron, when I say "you" and "your" here I don't specifically mean you. I'm basically speaking to whoever reads this. I posted this in response to your post because I wished to add to it.)

Originally posted by josephwNo, flat does not mean that it is squashed like a pancake. Flat means not curved. On the longest distance scales it is homogenous and isotropic. A positively curved universe would be like the three dimensional surface of a higher dimensional sphere. With no curvature it's pretty much like what one would naively expect from Euclidean Geometry.

Just google 'shape of the universe'. There are lots of sites to read. I'm getting the idea that astronomers think the shape of the universe is as a flat disc as far as they can see. I would like to get some feedback from you all as to the validity of this idea of the universe being in the shape of a disc.
Yes wolfgang, you're right. 😉

So, let's get this straight, Suzianne, you're not telling anyone to "shut up", and you're not "trying to restrict what others have to say", nothing like that, oh no; you're simply telling them to not post here and to post somewhere else? 😕😀
Oh, the guile.

You'd do better to contain your bile to the thread you came from and not pollute other conversations with it.
There are other names for it. Following me from thread to thread, simply to spew out your frustrated bile to me, could be called "stalking" and/or "harassment". Down, boy.
