Hmmm.

Yes, we certainly seem to be stuck, and it seems likely that we are awaiting a big advance which could completely change the fundamentals of how we see the universe.

On the other hand, we do really know a hell of a lot more than we did back then. Not sure if this what you are saying, but I don't go for the line that each big advance demonstrates that everything we used to know was wrong and it's back to square one.
