I don't give a fuck if I'm being trolled, it's too much fun.
What is everyone's favorite youtube channel for flat earth?

I've been looking into this for over a year now
That's over a year minus one hour too much.
I'm not 100% convinced that the earth is "flat"
Promising...
but I am 100% convinced that the earth is not a giant sphere rotating on its axis
Technically correct, the earth is not perfectly spherical (it is oblate), so your 100% confidence is well founded. Although, personally I'm only 99.9999381% certain the earth is an oblate sphere, because I haven't actually had a look from space. Coincidentally, 99.9999381% is the same degree of confidence I have in the existence of nuclear weapons.
I am also 100% convinced that the earth is the center of the universe...
It could be, even in a finite universe, in the same sense that any point on earth can be considered the centre of the surface. I have no idea what "central" means in higher dimensions.
...and the sun/moon/stars rotate around the earth.
Woah now, for 100% certainty you're going to need proof. I'm not 100% certain that my royal flush will win me the pot, since there's a non-zero probability of me dying before the hand is completed. How can you be so sure about something that has been proven to be false? What evidence do you have to support this claim?
The moon does indeed rotate around the earth. I refer you to my 99.9999381% confidence.
The sun and the stars? You're going to need a pretty solid theory to compete with the one currently doing the rounds. I can't wait to hear it. My guess is it involves a man with a beard doing magic.
A very large percentage of what all of us were taught in school is lies, and it is amazing how people just refuse to even entertain that thought.
This is of course true. Still, just because there's people out there who prefer you to believe what they want you to believe, doesn't mean logic has to go out of the window. If someone tries to tell me that the sky is green, I'm not going to start playing chess differently.
