“Yes I have- quite a while ago.” It was a strange conversation starter, but it amused him nonetheless. Did he greet every stranger like this? Maybe. Who knows. “People who say the earth is flat in this day and age.. I think that’s messed up.”

It was acceptable back in the day, considering the lack of scientific evidence to prove that the earth is, indeed, round, along with the prevelance of religion and its heavy influence that taught people otherwise. With our current scientific knowledge and more secular way of thinking, you’d think that everyone would be on the same page.” The one-eyed man took a drag from his pipe. “Then again, there are still those who refuse to believe in evolution and that the world truly was created in seven days,” he let out a airy chuckle.
It was an odd conversation starter that led into an odd conversation.
