When we look back throughout history and think about how stupid their ideas and theories were, we don't realize that 100 years from now, people will be laughing at how stupid we were, amirite?

Well they had no proof most of the time, just theories (especially in places like Greece.) We have actual proof and even pictures from space to prove our theories.

You can't prove a scientific theory, you can only disprove it. Scientific theories are adapted, thrown out, or changed all the time. Just recently, people have said that they have broken the speed of light with particles called neutrinos, which could change physics greatly, especially Einstein's *theory* of special relativity. So hundreds of years from now, people could be laughing at us for believing that nothing travels faster than the speed of light.
