I would explain to the 3rd graders that there is not right or wrong in
science. Science is about correct and incorrect. What is correct today
might not be considered to be correct tomorrow.

Aether Displacement is the most correct explanation for gravity, to
date.

If this was a high school science class I would explain to them the
how QM is very, very, very, incorrect. I would explain to them that
some people were so incorrect that they thought the future determined
the past. How in 'mainstream' QM they couldn't even figure out a C-60
molecule enters and exits a single slit in a double slit experiment.
How QMrs invented all sorts of crazy experiments and dubbed them
'delayed choice' and 'quantum eraser' experiments because the QMrs
didn't understand a particle travels a single path and waves propagate
available paths.

I will refer to these days as the dark ages of understanding what
occurs physically in nature in Quantum Physics.

Sounds even more like a fairy tale. Now with demons.
Nothing to do with science though.

I would tell the high school students that there are those who still
believe the future determines the past. They choose to believe a C-60
molecule will enter one slit or multiple slits depending on there
being detectors at the exits to the slits when the C-60 molecule gets
there, in the future.

That should get a good laugh.

Then I will explain to them how Louis de Broglie explained how the
C-60 molecule has an associated physical wave.

I will explain how just like gravity is the pressure associated with
the aether displaced by matter, the C-60 molecule displaces the aether
also.

A moving C-60 molecule has an associated aether displacement wave.

The C-60 molecule enters and exits a single slit while the
displacement wave in the aether enters and exits the available slits.

In order to represents this as an analogy I would explain the
behaviors of a boat and its bow wave.

I will refer to articles having to do with frictionless superfluids.

'Frictionless supersolid a step closer'
http://www.physorg.com/news185201084.html

"Superfluidity and superconductivity cause particles to move without
friction. Koos Gubbels investigated under what conditions such
particles keep moving endlessly without losing energy, like a swimmer
who takes one mighty stroke and then keeps gliding forever along the
swimming pool."

I will explain to the students regardless of the 'swimmer' being the
Earth or a C-60 molecule the interaction of the object and the aether
is frictionless. Just like the 'swimmer' displaces the water, so does
the Earth and the C-60 molecule. Just like the 'swimmer' will create a
displacement wave, if the object is moving fast enough relative to the
aether it displaces the object too will have an associated
displacement wave which can be detected.

The associated aether displacement wave of the C-60 molecule is
detected by the alteration in the direction the C-60 molecule travels
upon exiting the slit in a double slit experiment. Similar to how the
direction a boat travels can be altered by its bow wave exiting
multiple slits and interacting with the boat.

You enter the class room and begin to discuss how the future
determines the past and how wave function probabilities are physical
and how space is 'unflat' but does not move and how you do not
understand what occurs physically in nature to cause gravity. Do you
still insist on the existence of gravitons or have you moved past that
one and now insist on the existence of gravity quanta?

Yup, and then I show the experimental evidence, so they can judge for
themselves. Very few of them choose to disbelieve the evidence.

Wave functions are physical. Probabilities are numerical results you
get from calculating the behavior of wave functions. I can't help it
if you have trouble with the words.

Yes.

Yes.

I've never insisted on the existence of gravitons, which is the term
for gravity quanta. As I told you, they are considered likely, but we
don't have experimental evidence for them yet.

Any experiment you provide as evidence can be explained as waves
propagating available paths and particles traveling a single path.

This will also show your state of delusional denial.
