Bookmark or Share- How can something come from nothing? - Philosophy Stack ExchangeBefore 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.
- Did Aristotle say "The more you know..."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.
- Nothingness cannot be. Does that imply something must be?Self-rejection, or nothing, is an inherent possibility or option of being which happens often with it. That also implies nothing is always partial: only when being disperses and doesn't vanish completely nothing could be a negative happening. There is no other way for nothing but in the presence of being which the nothing is nothing of.
- philosophy of mathematics - How can zero exist if zero is nothing ...Here, zero is't "nothing" zero is defined to be a set. As an analogy, we could think of zero as a folder on a computer with no files inside. Or as an empty container. In my experience, zero is never defined to be "nothing" in mathematics, thinking of zero as nothing is a strictly nonmathematical conception of 0.
- Is something creating itself nonsense? - Philosophy Stack ExchangeBodies such as stars or black holes cannot just appear out of nothing. But a whole universe can… Because there is a law like gravity, the universe can and will create itself from nothing… Spontaneous creation is the reason there is something rather than nothing, why the universe exists, why we exist.
