1. The sun (as well as the moon) goes around the flat Earth disk, circling the north pole around the equator; above the surface of the Earth, but within the firmament (whichmay or may not be domed shaped). The sun is much closer and smaller than you have brought up to beLIEve. Because of this, the sun acts as a spotlight and does not light up the entire Earth.
2. I'm not entirely familiar with this; but anyone telling you they take curvature into account is feeding you full of shit... that is, unless: they talkin' 'bout yo mama's big ass.
3. You make a lot of assumptions, as most globe Earthers do; usually due to a lack of thought put into this particular subject (as well as many others. But we won't get into that now). But that's okay, I'm here to help you begin using your indoctrinated, little mind for something other than storing the mass produced bullshit you've been feasting on your entire worthless existence. The Earth is a flat and stationary plane. Planet is just the word plane, minus the added 't'. There is no outer space within the flat Earth model. All of your precious rockets that are launched by government space agencies are sent up, over and crashing straight into the fucking ocean. That's right: your space dreams are in a deep, watery grave abyss.
4. Again, ASSuming shit. Flat Earth is motionless. The north pole stays in the center of flat Earth, as always. There is no south pole.
5. Fall off what? The ASSumed edge, perhaps? Flat Earth may or may not have an edge. No one (except for the illuminated, puppet masters) really knows. The Antarctic treaty keeps people from traveling entirely across Antarctica (the ice ring/wall) if they even had the means to begin with.
6. The horizon (HORIZONTAL) appears flat because the Earth actually is fucking flat (wow, that was fucking simple).
7. Nice one! I'll have to remember it...
8. Or else you'll do what? Give a shotgun a blow job? Be my guest... go right ahead; no one is stopping you from living out your fantasy...
See the issue here is you have no backed any of this up with actual science, sources or material. I would like to see some proof, rather than some hyperbole.
Most of your bull comes from and sounds like this article. Which explains why you don't have a answer for anything outside of this article.
https://www.livescience.com/63648-flat-earth-explanation-for-the-equinox.htmlAnd since we are here, I will quote the damn article you so blatantly ripped off.
"This explanation has its problems. For starters, a sun circling 3,000 miles (5,000 km) above a flat Earth would never actually "set," even at the most southern latitudes. YouTube user Wolfie6020, a globe-Earth proponent, demonstrated this by building a scale model of the flat-Earth-style sun as it would be seen from Sydney on a vernal equinox. As shown in his video, the sun (actually a drone carrying a ping-pong ball) never dips below the horizon, even at its farthest point from the observer.
Moreover, during an equinox, the sun appears to rise due east and set due west everywhere on Earth except at the poles. For this to hold true on a flat Earth, where some cities are physically many times farther away from the sun than others, the sunlight would have to bend at hundreds of different angles simultaneously. That's the only way it could appear as if it was always coming from the east. YouTube user Flat Out, another prolific globe-Earth proponent, demonstrated the impossibility of this explanation using simple computer simulations in 2017.
So far, no flat-Earth model has been able to resolve these problems. But that doesn't stop the community from trying — or, in some cases, not trying. Like many conspiracy theories, it's the uncertainty that makes flat-Earth theory a mystery worth obsessing over for its proponents. So, whatever you believe, we hope this year's equinox restores your wonder in the globe/disc we call home."

Earth Curvature Calculation
I have written about how to compute the curvature of the Earth over a given distance in another post using Equation 1, which relates the deviation from horizontal to the distance from the measurement origin."
Military and artillery uses something called earth curvature calculation. You can see the actual math in the article, but I really doubt you would understand it.

https://spaceplace.nasa.gov/launch-windows/en/https://www.explainthatstuff.com/spacerockets.htmlhttps://www.britannica.com/science/spaceflight#ref219229Do some reading. If you can 't understand the rest its fine, the first article has a demonstration you can try at your local playground. Just don't touch the kids.
4. Please explain gravity then. Also how thick is the flat earth? Also what keeps it stationary? How does an asteroid impact not cause the earth to wobble?

Its how
flat
surfaces work.

https://www.nationalgeographic.org/encyclopedia/horizon/"Flat Earth
Many people continued to believe the Earth was flat until the late Middle Ages. The horizon was interpreted as the sharp edge of the Earthalthough no one ever reached it.
The horizon also helped prove that the Earth was a sphere. As early as 330 BCE, the Greek philosopher Aristotle noticed that certain constellations in the southern sky rose higher from the horizon as he traveled south. This could only be possible if the Earth was round."
