Re: Don't Waste Time
Please give us the volume of your surface of the earth: is it the same as that of the earth?
A surface is a 2D entity it does not have a volume it has an area.

Re: Don't Waste Time
No dif.
Yeah there is a difference, a surface is 2D and does not have a volume, if you had the most basic knowledge of geometry you'd know this.
If a 2-D, as in a circle drawn on paper, the centre is 6" where the circumference is 12
We're not talking about a 2D circle, we're talking about the 2D surface of a 3D sphere.

Re: Don't Waste Time
And here I am, still waiting to know the volume of your surface.
And here we are still waiting for you to realize that a 2D surface does not have a volume.

Re: CUTTING TO THE CHASE SCENE
It still has a center, whether in 2- or 3-D mode.
No it does not. Please provide the location of the center of the surface of a sphere that has a radius of 1 metre.
What is not realised here, is this debate is not simply one of preferred perspectives and academics.
No this debate is about simple geometry and your complete ignorance of it.

Re: CUTTING TO THE CHASE SCENE
I trust that makes some sense to you
No that was just gibberish. I repeat: Please provide the location of the center of the surface of a sphere that has a radius of 1 metre.

Re: A GUIDE FOR THE PERPLEXED.
You bet it does - the south pole is equidistant from all other points, thus the centre.
Wrong again. The distance from the South pole to a point on the arctic circle is much greater than the distance from the south pole to a point on the equator.
