    A bunch of fools! or a bunch of jokers.
    They believe the earth is still flat; which in actuality this concept of the earth being flat was just a rumor made by people in the 20th century about Christopher Columbus. People in Columbus's time already new the earth was round. In fact it was Aristotle long before Columbus that PROVED the earth was round. He did this by seeing the moon and realizing that the shadow being cast on it was the earth's shadow (and the earth's shadow being round like the moon of course). Later on people realized by looking through a telescope that there are other planets like the earth that are round and they are all flying around a sun.
    The fact is that I don't think anyone is that stupid (especially now a days with space travel and what not) to think the earth is flat. So I believe the Flat Earth Society are just a bunch of jokers.
