I’m open to the earth being flat but I just don’t see how it’s possible.

The sun “sets” beneath the horizon on the ocean every night. You can see it. It’s not just heading north in a circular pattern.

Ships lights on the ocean are only visible from a certain distance due to the curvature of the earth.

It is probably round, not flat. For those who think it is flat, wouldn't that make everything else, all the planets and stars, flat, too?
Really, this whole argument is such a distraction; it was designed to be one, and from all the responses, it is an excellent distraction. We have more important things to deal with right now, like around 800,000 kids that go "missing" - EVERY YEAR - for who knows how long it's been going on.
