If that were true you might have a point, but it's not.

Google "space" and "virtual particles"; too many hits to

Space doesn't bend, the ether does

There is no ether.

... I mean, DUH! How can "nothing" bend?

Space isn't "nothing".

This sounds exactly like a discussion I had a while
back on the astronomy group. Why some people just love
ether is beyond me. If something (ether) needs not be
used in any way as a value in a computation, why use
it at all? ...If you kick the tires and look under the
hood of these ethertards, you'll find a god believer as
well.

Well, makes more sense than throwing in the rotation interval of the
earth into equations NOT dealing with the earth! *And, it has nothing to
do with anything, except the rotation of the earth. *The UTF will
probably be discovered right around the time we learn to understand the
ether ...

Besides, we will never know how radio waves (or any other waves, for
that matter) transverse and are propagated by the ether though space.
Most likely, will lead to a whole new area of physics, math and devices
which utilize the properties, once we understand them.

You argument sounds familiar, "You don't have to be a mechanic to drive
a car." *The areas where that argument fail are also quite apparent ...

Ask them what the all-inclusive saturation or density of photos is per
ISM or per IGM km3.
