To the fish the water lilies would be getting pushed around by themselves without anything pushing them. Since the water around them would appear invisible, much like the air and space around us, they would be baffled that the water lilies could move around by themselves. Now imagine that there is fish “scientists” that would concoct clever invention called a “force” in order to hide their ignorance.
