What is wrong with having a 'best guess'? People used to think the earth was flat. Then it was round. But today with our satellites measurements we can see that it has a slight bulge in the middle near the equator due to its rotation. But guess what, due to mass being spread out so unevenly, it's not even oval shaped. The moon causes the actual earth to constantly shift. The weight of the ocean waters causes the crust to deform.

Do all of these details mean that on a basic level the earth is not round? Certainly not. Saying the earth is round is a good basic way to describe it to a kindergartner. When they being to understand physics more then they can absorb the extra details of the earth's shape.

Science is a constantly changing process and very rarely is there an answer that is 100% true. So in a way you are right for arguing that science has imperfections. But I think you are doing yourself a dis-service to think that science can never be true. Also you seem to be aiming pretty low in your arguments. Tell me that God is the reason why the universe is expanding at a faster and faster rate and the reason for dark matter. Then you would have an argument that would at least be more difficult to be disproved. More so than "Magnets" - seriously that sounds like something Charlie Kelley would say.
