What Is. Nothingness

@Zaphod42 Great reply. It is rare, and I always appreciate a good mind in this rat hole of a forum. You deserve a look at a discussion in depth on Nothing.

@sree251 Thank you! That was a treat! To be fair though, I’m sure I was just regurgitating something I once heard Tyson, Cox, Kaku or someone like that say in a video I was listening to while gaming. “Nothing” is a difficult thing for me to come to terms with. I can accept that even in a perfect void, absent of even the strangest or most charming of quarks, the scaffolding of space-time still exists., but the universe expanding out into “nothing” is a mind bender. It’s easier for me to think that the universe as we know it is the result of a quantum vacuum decay event overwriting an older higher energy universe, that dark energy is the conversion of that higher energy state into the expansion rate of the decay border and dark matter as the possible ashes of the process. I’m probably wrong, but it’s still less taxing on my brain than trying to consider “nothing”. 🤷‍♂️

@Zaphod42 Yea i'm with you on that. Point here is. We can theorise where something comes from or where nothing comes from because of taking something out, leaving nothing. So what came first. Something or Nothing. Are you assuming. Nothing is the creator!
