Flat earth would be so cool if it was just sci-fantasy authors and not weird, return to christandom, anti-modernity types.

So, the Discworld. Yes, it is very cool.

Even old Christians knew the earth was a sphere. The "Catholics believe the earth is flat" was something said by someone AGAINST Catholics, not because it was true.

The return to christandom thing is just something they say, it's not exactly true.

There's some really amazing world building that's been done with flat-earth art as a springboard

Can't remember the name, but there's one with concentric circles separated by ice walls with landmasses named after different mythologies' deities. There's a whole community built around writing lore for each landmass
