This is necessary because it claims to have proven the doubling of the
Newtonian deflection, which involves curved space and parallel lines
meeting.

You really don't understand any of this.

You really don't understand logic, as proven by your failure to answer
the criticism directly by resorting to ad hominem. You lose.

Thank you, but the refraction of sunlight that keeps the Sun visible
after astronomical sunset and the bending of starlight during an eclipse
are not perspectival or illusions.

Are you saying Einstein said parallel lines meet????  Or some schnook or

Maybe Einstein didn't realize that for space to curve parallel lines
would have to meet.

There are stars in space that used to follow a straight line, but that
