as far as I can tell, you weren't asked to prove either climate change or a round earth, or any concept at all
recall the tangent we deflected to was the mere existence of round earth deniers, climate change deniers (read: people), both of which do, in fact, exist as real people in the real world, as can be easily confirmed by anyone researching the topic in good faith, like I said
anyhow, back on topic: the proposed alternative just doesn't seem better than the status quo, no matter how you've sliced it so far, for the reasons given in my original post and ignored by you
you weren't able to do so, since "X is ridiculous to deny" is orthogonal to "there exist people who deny X", and the latter is the tangent deflected to. Like I said, anyone actually spending ten seconds researching the topic in good faith would discover that both round-earth denialists and climate-change denialists exist in real life, no matter how ridiculous their beliefs

>I explained plain as day how it’s easy to be skeptical of anything that can’t be verified quickly and then explained the difference
maybe, maybe not. Problem is, that's totally, absolutely, and completely irrelevant to your tangent, which was: you doubted the existence of round earth deniers in real life
(when they do, in fact, exist, just like climate change deniers, no matter how ridiculous either of them or their beliefs are)
see, you neglect that some people are also skeptical of things which CAN be verified quickly, for many varied reasons which we'll for expedience summarize here as "the dumb", and many of these round-earth-denying, perhaps climate-change-denying people are in the "we're losing faith in science!!!1" crowd
which brings us back on topic: the proposed alternative just doesn't seem better than the status quo, no matter how you've sliced it so far, for the reasons given in my original post and ignored by you
