OQ: #08

Theme: Nothingness.

---

There is that philosophical question in the top ten for all times.

I found myself attracted to it the first time I read it, so my mind automatically went into the wonder, heh.

Let's see,

 

Why is there something rather than nothing?

I think that people got 'zero' point messed up as understanding.

It's probable here that mathematicians are involved, and their statement,

"Numbers never lie".

 

Taken to maths, the zero means complete neutralization or said better,

the point of the "beginning".

If we draw a line(limits), similar to the included in the discriminant of a quadratic,

once we are to distinct x and y...the first thing to put is the 'zero point'.

And by nature, the limits follow from right of the zero - positive infinity,

and from left of the zero - negative infinity.

 

Then we take that 'zero' is not really 'empty'. It's where the limits meet, neutralized.

 

 

Let's leave maths for a bit.

Simply when you have nothing, you automatically have something.

However, that something intrigues with another question,

is it possible 'nothingness' to become a steady point of a beginning

rather than of an end?

 

Infinity, whether positive or negative, they have no 'end', but no one spoke about

their beginning. Surely 'zero' can be taken as both, the beginning and the end.

 

The nothing, the complete zero, the lack of 'something';

isn't it similar to the beginning of the end and vice versa, the end of the beginning?

We have 'no' which describes 'negativity', and 'thing' which wraps up the 'positivity'.

Together, rather that 'nothing', they make 'something'.

 

Or maybe, the question is not really what is asked.

There are many subjects besides maths, and I am certain,

one of them can prove that nothing is actually 'nothing'.

 

Or..it's a really pointless dispute.

I've always thought that nothing doesn't exist. It’s basically the definition of nothing.

 

We all exist, the universe around us exists. If something existed before what we call the universe today, then that thing existed as well. It would mean something exists and nothing does not exist.

Why is there something rather than nothing?

 

 

...Why not?

This was quite interesting to read.

I have talked about this sometime with a friend and we said a few of things that you wrote in our discussion.

This also made me think about it more than when me and my friend had the discussion.

Even if I don't know you (note: just joined), but it would be nice if you would do more of these

[M1st3rSk3l3t0n]

There has never been a nothingness (In the universe), other than in death, maybe.

The fact that we all are arguing about it proves that.

So why did mankind found a word for something that doesnt exist outside maths?

I think that it is part of the "flowery language" that found its way from arabia to the rest of the world and it describs another form of

perfection... whad d' yall think?

When talking about Positive and Negative infinites, it is inevitable that zero will be associated with being the End and Beginning; end of the negative infinity, where it does not have any numerical beginning, and the neutrality before the start of the positive infinity, where it does not have any numerical end.

 

That being said, Zero is still just a Mathematical expression; a limit, if you would, to simplify the incomprehensible.

 

Why is there something rather than nothing?

 

The world is mostly gray, rather than black and white. And I think, when it comes to these things, It's all about perspective since there is no singular truth that we know of. But then again, maybe there already is and our perspective is the one keeping us from understanding it.
