That’s the point. It’s not accurate that we always knew how complex these were. The more we learn, the more we learn how complex these things are. The example of spiritual explanations is the most reductive and frankly that is where our understanding started. This conversation has really devolved here in typical Lemmy fashion.
It’s actually a pretty decent list of unanswered questions. The more we know the more we learn new questions.
Like why there’s anything at all when the matter and antimatter should have annihilated itself.
Or if there’s positive or negative curvature to space time at the (open or closed universe)
Or what is dark matter and dark energy.
Or unifying quantum physics with general relativity.
And so on.

Spiritual stuff? Maybe I missed that somewhere? I just saw the blurb in the physics book.
