I bring this up every so often but I remember flat earth being about questioning science and understanding how to think for yourself... That understanding the earth was round was such a simple thing to do just by really looking at the horizon... You could then question other science and try to see how it could be wrong... It was like a gateway into critical thinking or something...

But I never could find any reference to the old club that was started for it or find anything on the topic... I also haven't looked in a while and most of the information is just now about how these people are incorrect and also craziness
