The Argument That The Earth Is Flat By Mark
The major theme that is in this documentary is self explanatory which is arguing that the earth is flat. This documentary and our class in my point of view both have a smilier theme. A simple answer is that they both discuss myths. For example in the documentary, Mark discusses that the Earth is flat and tries providing many points of proof and in class we had earlier talked about the Lion Gate in Argolid, Greece. According to Greek mythology, the Lion Gate was built by cyclops because physically it would have been impossible for human men to have raised such heavy stone to create the arch by themselves.

Another reason that has Mark convinced that the Earth is flat and not round is because a man went and interviewed all the astronauts of Apollo 13 to talk about their adventures that they thought but was instead a trick to get them to swear on the Bible that they did see that the Earth was round. When the astronauts of Apollo 13 were outraged that they were asked to swear on the Bible, the interviewer was very shocked to see such a reaction from them. To Mark that may have meant that the government definitely paid them in some sort and when asked to swear that they didn’t want to lie on God’s word. I think that this is one of Mark’s weaknesses is that he assumes that he knew everything just from the little information thats given in my opinion. Personally no matter if I was lying or telling the truth I would not swear on the Bible. To me, it’s taking God’s name in vain but I think the astronauts were probably mad at the fact that this interviewer was insulting them that they weren't telling the truth about going to the moon
