OK, look. Christian flat-Earthers are a modern thing. The concept of a Flat Earth had been pretty much thrown out by about 300 BC based on the observation of the curvature of the Earth. Initially the Greeks believed the Earth was a Cylinder until they went far enough North to realise it was a sphere. I'm sure there were peasants in the medieval period who believed the Earth was flat, but they likely only travelled a few miles from their village. All educated people understood it was a sphere.

People didn't believe Columbus would fall off the edge of the Earth they, accurately, believed his crews would starve before he circumnavigated the Earth and reached India. It was his dumb luck that he hit land that far South before he hit India, or rather before his crew had to resort to eating each other.

Flat-Earthers today are part of the anti-intellectual conspiracy movement, which is why they're concentrated in the US - people who glory in being ignorant because knowledge is a lie perpetuated by the "Elite" who are controled by Jewish bankers/Lizardmen/Aliens.
So christians don't believe in the bible then.
British 19th century flat earthers cited passages stretching from Genesis to Revelation to support their views.
Are you familiar with the word "raqia" and its place in biblical cosmology?
