^To add to that, since the discovery of knowledge is expanding at an ever-increasing rate, it's possible that the "unexplained forces" will someday be explained. And very probable there will be logical formulas and explanations for them.
Actually 800 years ago people didn't believe the earth was flat. That's largely a myth. Since the ancient Greeks calculated the circumference of the earth quite accurately, virtually no educated person has believed that the earth was flat. The peasants who composed the vast majority of the population in the middle ages might have thought the earth was flat...assuming of course that they even had a concept of "earth" at all.Just because a person 800 years ago believed the earth was flat, and no one had the science yet to prove that is wasn't flat, does not legitimize their belief or faith that the earth is flat nor did their belief make the earth flat. They were wrong.
