What causes the illusion of the curvature of space is the limitation of language, thought, understanding, and the application of our limited language and beliefs to reality. We cannot change reality, but we can try to accommodate our thoughts and language in what appears to be a reality. Since the Nothing is “not” space, we are sure we can legitimately say that space can be curved. Nevertheless, we must first answer what space is. If we cannot precisely answer what space is, we cannot speculate that an absolute vacuum is not space. In other words, we cannot base our thoughts and language on consequences and conclusions rather than causes and premises.
