<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I used to believe that the Earth was flat. I was a member of a Flat Earth community, not the biggest one, but certainly one of the most vocal, and assuredly one with an incredible amount of resources to promote the Flat Earth belief. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">For several decades, I spent a lot of time reading, debating, studying Flat Earth theory. I was convinced that the evidence was overwhelming, and that the entire world was being lied to about the shape of the Earth.  </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Over time, I started to have doubts. I started to wonder if maybe I was wrong. I started to do some research on my own, and I found that there was a lot of evidence that the Earth was round. I also started to talk to people who didn&#8217;t believe in flat Earth theory, and I learned a lot from them. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Eventually, I realized that I was wrong. The Earth is round.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I want to apologize to everyone who I hurt by forcing my flat Earth views on them. I know that I was wrong, and I&#8217;m sorry for any pain that I caused. I hope that you can forgive me.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I&#8217;m still learning about the shape of the Earth, and I&#8217;m still trying to understand how I could have been so wrong for so long. But I&#8217;m committed to learning the truth, and I&#8217;m grateful for the opportunity to grow and change.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I hope that my story can help others who are struggling with their beliefs. It&#8217;s okay to change your mind. It&#8217;s okay to admit that you were wrong. The important thing is to be open to new information and to be willing to learn.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Thank you for reading.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Former member of the Flat Earth Cult</p>
