Oct 29, 2023 · Before big bang, there was nothing that was giving rise to particle-antiparticle pair(s), possibly for infinite time, if we insist to define time in that context. There must be nothing "outside" of our universe, in which the universe is expanding. In this sense, nothing can be considered as a kind of space.

Mar 15, 2017 · Given that you can only measure things, you can't measure an absence of things. Nothing is a group which has no elements, and therefore it cannot have a size (which is different from having size 0). Worst even, you cannot imagine nothing, except as an empty container. What you are precisely trying to measure is the container, not the content ...

I found cites, though nothing specific, to Socrates, Lao-Tse, George Bernard Shaw, and Aristotle. I did some word searches in the works reprinted at Project Gutenberg. But nothing helpful. My best guess: the original quote has become so corrupted over time that searches for a source will produce everyone and no one.

Further, nothing is not divisible at all. One of 0's key properties is ∀x <> 0 : 0/x = 0. On the other hand, one foundation for numbers has them built on nothing -- the empty set. For instance, 0 is the empty set, 1 is the set whose only member is the empty set, and so on. So here, at the most basic level, something is made out of nothing.

At first blush, Hawking’s and Mlodinow’s “nothing” seems even more of a nothing than the church fathers’ nothing. For whereas Irenaeus’ and Tertullian’s world emerges from nothing and God, Hawking’s and Mlodinow’s world emerges from nothing at all. Is it correct to say that Hawkings & Mlodinows world emerge from nothing?

If you take Nothing from something something remains. If nothing cannot exist in something. how can you take nothing from something. In set Theory null set means an empty set a collection of 0 elements. But it doesn't mean nothing.the abstract collection still …

Similarly, if there's no single definition for nothing it doesn't mean we don't understand it - it just means it is currently hard to define. It also doesn't mean the difficulty lies "in the borders", for whatever that may mean. It has its own peculiarities.

May 11, 2018 · Nothing exists on its own, existence is the property of interaction. But since every interaction is different, I conclude that existence itself is subjective. But then, what can we call objective? Objective develops from subjective, the more interactive experience there is, the more objective is our awareness about it.

There is something rather than nothing because the state of "nothing" is UNSTABLE. Quantum Physics tells us that the state of “nothing” does not stay “nothing” for long. The key to understanding creation is in knowing that gravity is actually negative energy allowing a creation from nothing where the total energy of the universe remains ...

re "But then I ask, if nothing is the end of consciousness, then in what sense does anything exist once we die?": If you consider that 2) is true, and you don't believe you're the only conciousness, then that person 'ends' so that thread of perception ends, so everything ends for that conciousness - but will remain for survivors.
