All I have done was appropriately respond to your posts! OK let's end off-topic posts then. Now.
And continue them in a new thread . Somewhere , and let me know where you posted , your responces to me , where I can respond , to them , directly .

I considered closing it, since it seems you started it in an inappropriate forum in order to avoid your exclusion from posting to our Science sections. Instead, I opted to be generous and merely move it to Pseudoscience.
And I moved it to Pseudoscience since the thread of your discussion of the topic is pseudoscientific. It's a more specific category that the catch-all Free Thoughts.I posted it in Free Thoughts forum because it is a Free Thought , forum .
Does light bend in a pure vacuum ?
No
So how would space bend in a pure vacuum ?

What do you mean by a "pure vacuum"?Does light bend in a pure vacuum ?

What do you mean by a "pure vacuum"?
If you're talking about regular space, such as within our solar system, say, then light certainly does bend in that.
Where can we find pure vacuum, then?Absence of any energy and matter down to the sub-quantum ( which I have mentioned before ) .
Where can we find pure vacuum, then?
If there are none to be found anywhere, then asking whether space bends in one is irrelevant to anything practical, isn't it?
river,
If that's what you want to know, then in simple terms general relativity tells us that energy and matter cause spacetime to curve (bend, if you prefer). It would therefore follow that if you're sufficiently far away from any matter or energy, then spacetime will be approximately flat where you are.
On the other hand, it is important to realise that the "empty" space near a massive object like the Earth and the Sun is curved, even though there is nothing in that empty space. The curvature is caused by the nearby matter.
Does this answer your question?
Okay, let's recap.Yes , it answers nothing can bend . As I suspected . What I thought was going to the answer but Not to my question .
The answer is nonsense.
Okay, let's recap.
Your question was "Does space bend in a pure vacuum?"
My answer is: no, it doesn't.
Are you saying my answer is nonsense? If so, you need to explain what you find nonsensical about it. For example, perhaps you believe that space can bend in a pure vacuum. If that's the case, it would be good if you explained why or how it can do that. You know, supporting your claim with argument or evidence, that kind of thing.
So...?
Who cares what you say?Next question can space bend at all ? I say not .
