Why change the word? The Government tell so many lies about most things, so, I don't ridicule those who say the earth is flat . Too many people laugh at flat-earthers and look almost insane and demonic when they are doing so, which (as I said above) is in itself a good enough reason to keep an open mind on the subject.
