Can Something come from Nothing?

Hi Alicat... Yup, love must come from nothing, I sure don't know where it comes from. Always thought it was red though...at least, thats the colour it makes me see!

Right now I have to go and curl up and die, with the full realization that I know nothing and not the combined efforts of a galaxy of computer experts will teach me something. [If I should however survive the agony of this embarresment...I'll drop by at your h2g2 home]Farewell.

I wish to curl up and die also. I have nothing useful to add so I'll just go away and do that now.

You shouldn't call someone elses "blind belief" sad (most people would call this faith. What do you have faith in?

How can you call the occurrance of the Big Bang nothing? How ridiculous! You cannot have a bang with
nothing! That's as faith oriented as god creating the Universe out of thin air! Which brings up the fact that
thin air is not nothing.

Sartyfartblast Posted Feb 13, 2000
Sorry, I thought that was a current conversation. Much ado about nothing!
Got any current thoughts that don't produce headaches?

"Nothing can come of nothing" - King Lear. Later events in the play prove him decidedly wrong. Is there a moral there? I don't know. But I don't think there is ever nothing anywhere. even a vaccuum is full. In a kind of a way.
If, on the other hand, you're right, then we shouldnt exist right now, so the moral seems to be to live it up until the universe realises its mistake and comes to claim its debt

For the sake of fluff Alicat & Katsy! This is supposed to be a forum for philosophical thought against physics. Not a competition to see who can guess the nearest shade of love. We have a word for vacuous people like you, and in my circle it's blondes! I happen to be a bit on the superfical side meself, but I'm not going to broadcast the fact that I'm a vacnt lot to all and sundry! I just broke a nail today in my trampolining class and I'm having a bad day with splitends and malting. I also have a comment on how I think the whole point of existance starting up in the first place was in order for it to end and how if there is a God he probably invented evolution to aid the progression from start to end and go f*ck the Babel fish.
I almost thought Hipskitsch had a point with the tree falling on a mime until you sidetracked him completly from ANYTHING OF RELIVANCE AT ALL!!!
If a tree falls in an empty wood does it make a sound? No because there would be no humans to here it so nobody would 'hear' a thing. Even if a tree fell in a forest highly populated birds, squirrels and Mexican jumping frogs - it still wouldn't be heard because none of those things speak english and don't use the word 'heard' ever anyway.
My metaphor being, that the universe (ie something/everything) May not necisarily have come from nothing, but how are we to know - we weren't there.
