    There’s nothing in the Bible that implies the earth is flat… but most people who use the Bible to excuse their behavior don’t actually read it, so it’s not wild to hear they think the Bible is the basis for their beliefs.

      Isaiah 11:12 - And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth.

      Ezekiel 7:2 - Also, thou son of man, thus saith the Lord GOD unto the land of Israel; An end, the end is come upon the four corners of the land.

      There is actually plenty of language in the bible that implies a flat earth. I found these examples with 5 minutes of searching.
