Those who think the Earth is flat are usually motivated by religious literalism.

That is not true: On a flat earth, if the moon was not overhead, it would pull the water towards it and so cause a tide. It is a bit like tides in lakes: many are small enough not to be overly affected by fact that the earth is not flat.
Flat Earth Society was created in 1956.
The Flat Earth society consists of members who believe that the Earth is flat rather than an oblate spheroid. The group has been around since the 1960s. Some adherents are serious and some are not. Those who are serious are often motivated by pseudoscience or religious literalism.Check out their website: Flat Earth Society

Flat earth believers are almost exclusively motivated by religion or by conspiracy theory beliefs.
