Okay, then tell me how a flat earther would explain it.

The most popular “explanation” is that the sun revolves or moves around the earth and not the other way around.

Do you have another explanation?

Okay, but what I’m asking is for you to give an example of an FE model that can’t explain a certain phenomena that the heliocentric one can, or where the geocentric model clearly contradicts other easily verified natural phenomena. Like say if the sun rotated around the earth, wouldn’t we at least see some light at any given time? Or if the moon is a disc why does the shadow look like it does? Those sorts of things… In other words, you challenge an aspect of the FE model and I’ll see if I can’t answer it.

Next you'll be arguing that the diesel fuel guzzling trucks, tractors and farms should just be outlawed due to Co2 and methane emissions because we don't need farms since food is already in the stores.....................:unsure:

Are you sure I'd be arguing that? Or is that a massive mischaracterization of me?

I'm going to have to challenge you on this one friend. The belief that we exist on a spinning ball held in place by an invisible force flying through an infinite void at thousands of miles an hour is entirely abstract to our real-world, day to day experience. It would not be my first guess anyways. Have you ever hear of Occam's razor?

Let me guess, you think we should fly off the spinning ball? Is that it?

There isn’t a single Flat Earth “model” that explains anything. They don’t explain hurricanes, they don’t explain why our sun would rotate around us and they certainly don’t explain why every other star in the universe has planets orbiting around it, and not the other way around.
There isn’t one that explains seasons, or eclipses, or why different parts of the world can see different stars than others. It throws gravity out the window, so really there is no reason for the sun and moon to even stay near us, never mind orbit around us, or for us to have an atmosphere for that matter

There may be an “explanation” that tries to go for one of those things at a time but absolutely nothing that explains them all in any way… Occam’s razor

That’s not true. I don’t look for witty tricks and gotchyas like you do. If you don’t want to do the exercise, fine, but I think it’d be illuminating.
