Also, your post made some very wrong statements: christopher colombus didn't prove the Earth wasn't flat, a greek mathematician did 2000 years before him. In Colombus' time, most knew the Earth was round
You mean I should select a one sided opinion, when I find a higher degree of truth somewhere in the middle ground of all this, Being an artist my whole life, I do well enough expressing myself as I see the whole world as my family.
I studied Culumbus well, because I built a pirate museum display in Florida and Columbus was the first pirate display at the entrance. The higher educated people pretty much knew the world was round,The Flat-Earth Bible led most people living in Europe to believe he world was flat, because they believe everything word in the bible was true, for example...

I used to live in a room full of mirrors; all I could see was me. I take my spirit and I crash my mirrors, now the whole world is here for me to see.
