Gravity isn’t a speed, it’s a force.

Actually, it's not a force either[0].

It feels like a force, but it's just mass acting in warped space-time.

Only if you believe the theory of relativity is correct.

If you believe in quantum mechanics or some other theory of gravity, this isn't true.

I can show you plenty of tests "proving" that Newtonian mechanics are correct too. General relativity doesn't correctly predict things at quantum scale.

I yield to your superior pedantry :)

But seriously, thanks!
