What is the need for the ether?



What is the need for the ether ?

The answer:
All theories of physics are ether theories. For example:
1. The different fields in QFT are different names for the distortions
in a stationary ether and these distortions in the ether are caused by
the absolute motions of the interacting objects.
2. The interactions of virtual particles with real particles in QFT are
the
results of the real particles reacting to the distortions in the
stationary ether.
3. In GR the curvature in space-time is the distortion in the
stationary ether. When an object follows the curvature of space-time it

is following the distortion in the stationary ether. This is the reason

for the observed action-at-a-distance.
4. In SR the observer assumes that he is at rest in the ether and
that's why he sees all the clocks moving wrt him are running slow and
all the rods moving wrt him are contracted. BTW this assumption of SR
is the reason why SR is incomplete. In real life all observers are in a

state of absolute motion.Therefore he will sees some of the clocks
moving wrt him are running slow and some are running fast. Also the
existence of the ether and absolute time is the reason why all
observers measures the same constant ratio for the speed of light as
follows:
Light path length of ruler (299,792,458m)/the absolute time content for

a clock second co-moving with the ruler.
