Well, anyone who believes that the bible is the literal word of God *must* believe that the earth is flat. The bible refers to the "four corners of the earth" as actual physical places several times, so the earth must be flat for that to be possible. So to argue that it is spherical is to say that the word of God is false.

Further, I'd bet that most people lack the ability to literally *prove* that the earth is spherical. Sure, you can show people pictures of the earth from space and all, but then again, there are pictures of Ewoks and the Death Star that look just as realistic, so photographs prove nothing about something being real.

Answer: yes
