No, ENERGY is not the same thing as FORCE.

I didn't say it was...

You see, this is why we are having trouble communicating. When I see
the equals sign it means something specific to me, i.e. the things on
either side of it are the same.

Obviously, it means something different to you.

Likewise, the terms FORCE ENERGY TORQUE etc have very specific meanings
to me, but you are bandying about these terms without regard to their
standard meaning in physics - that makes it rather hard to have a
discussion.

It's like trying to parse something like "I had my bindings waxed and
now the moguls don't hurt my feet when I schuss across the hill in a
parallel stem-christie wedge turn."

It's hard to follow what the heck the person is on about.
