True. But gravity is a conservative field (again, neglecting radiation), meaning that the energy that goes into raising something against gravity, you can get back by lowering it to the original position again.

If we're not in "overly pedantic argumentation" mode, then I'd say, go climb some stairs. Feel that? That's a force. But if we are in "overly pedantic argumentation" mode, then yes, gravity is the curvature of space-time in General Relativity. That may not be the final word, though. What is gravity in Loop Quantum Gravity?
