It is intellectually dishonest to continually insist someone else believes something they've never claimed to believe, just so that you can beat up on your own strawman argument. This is equivalent to leftists claiming Trump supports white nationalists...when that's not what he said.
If I have ever said simply "I believe the Earth is flat", please provide the quote. I have suggested only that there's evidence to suggest Earth is either flat OR a spheroid many times the size we've been told. Saying simply that sol "believes the Earth is flat" is a dishonest attempt to distract from the numerous problems with the spinning air covered water ball model.
The air sphere had to be claimed to rotate with the Earth, because otherwise humans on Earth would experience 1000mph winds. Okay fine, but a model including an air sphere rotating in synch with a planet also creates a whole lot of new problems...and though those problems are somewhat more abstract those problems are no less real, only less topical.
