Whatever. It doesn't matter what it's called because it literally is indeterminable. You can call it "zero point", "quantum foam", "quantum glue", "the medium", "the principle", "holos", all words made up for describing something indeterminable by nature. What "it" isn't is "omnipotent" because it is "doing something" and it isn't "something specific". If it were "omnipotent" then nothing would cause it to do anything, it would be all knowing and everything would just fall in place. It would be something specific and determinable. It would cause itself. But that isn't logical because things don't define themselves.

>It doesn't matter what the medium is, a wave is a transference of momentum between the composite parts of a medium, and the transference of momentum necessitates force by definition.

Aka "what something does"-not a thing. It does not necessitate a force because all the parts are self similar. It's a mutual impelling.
>No everything is not made of "protons" and "neutrons" and "electrons"
It even makes sense under the assumption of stupid bumping particles. Even the law of thermodynamics.

SO WHERE DOES THE "FORCE" COME FROM? NOWHERE? IT EXPLAINS ITSELF?
>well uh...no it comes from another thing that gives it that force
Ad continuum and then what? Where does it come from? I want a fucking explanation you twit.

>How were you physically able to make your fingers type this?
Well go on and retort? "Inertia" "Magnetism" and "electrostatics exist. Explain it some other way. You can't even tell me where gravity comes from.

>Trying to figure out "why" the universe behaves as it does is as pointless as trying to figure out if God exists or not

Dumbest loaded statement. 6/10 though.

>Faster-than-light communication is impossible.
Agreed, not because it's impossible to go "faster than light" but because light has no "speed". It's a rate of induction.

>Climate change is real, is happening right now,
yes
>is a real threat and is mostly caused by humans.
No. We don't control the sun or the spin of the earth.

And last but not least.
