You know, it really baffles me. I can't imagine the level of stupidity it would take to persistently claim the world is flat contrary to everything we know.
I have heard before the saying, "If reality contradicts the bible, then it is reality that is wrong." That's about the size of it. They don't want to live in the real world, they want to live in the bible.
The idea of heaven being "above" and hell "below" only makes sense if you think of the Earth as flat, as the primitive people writing the bible obviously did. So they're probably trying to retain that delusion too.
But then again, trying to deny evolution is only slightly less stupid than that.
