There is no such thing as nothingness

, and zero does not exist. Everything is something. Nothing is nothing.

Can you explain nothingness?

“Nothingness” is a philosophical term for

the general state of nonexistence

, sometimes reified as a domain or dimension into which things pass when they cease to exist or out of which they may come to exist, e.g., God is understood to have created the universe ex nihilo, “out of nothing”.

Is nothingness still something?

“Nothing” (in a philosophy of nothing) is recognized as an empty space, vacuum or empty void. But all these things are, in fact, something (and this usually sounds like an empty meaningless play and mixture with words). But logically speaking there can be

no perfect state

of nothing that is not in fact something.

Can you experience nothingness?


Nothingness cannot be experienced

. You experience something/someone which is there not there. If someone/something is not there, we describe it as loneliness not nothingness. You can experience loneliness.

Is absolute nothingness possible?

Absolute nothingness would mean nothingness everywhere and always. The fact of asking this question is already something and supposing something. Therefore

absolute nothingness is impossible

.

Can the universe come from nothing?

If you accept a physical definition of “nothing,” then

yes

, the Universe as we know it very much appears to have arisen from nothing. But if you leave physical constraints behind, then all certainly about our ultimate cosmic origins disappears.

Can something be created from nothing?

So

particle-antiparticle pairs

can be created from “nothing”, that is from no particles to two particles, but energy must be provided, so these particles can be viewed as having been created from the energy.

What is nothing in the universe?

When we think of ‘nothing,’ we typically think of a space with nothing in it.

A space that has zero particles

, no particle at every place where a particle could be. Physicists call this the ‘vacuum state,’ and thanks to quantum mechanics, it has some weird properties.

What do you call nothingness?

1 : the quality or state of being nothing: such as. a :

nonexistence

. b : utter insignificance.

What is true nothingness?

Well, it means at least

no objects

(this table, etc.), no properties (it’s being made of wood, etc.), as well as no facts (the fact that it’s a table made of wood, etc). None of that sort of stuff. It also means nothing coming into existence, nothing existing, and nothing going out of existence.

Is Empty Space nothing?

empty space governed by quantum mechanics (or any other laws of physics, or even just the laws of physics by themselves)

is not nothing

, and not even an “example” of nothing (whatever an “example of nothing” means), but something.

What is the fear of nothingness called?


Nihiliphobia

was a psychological condition which described a literal fear of nothingness.

Does the universe end?


The end result is unknown

; a simple estimation would have all the matter and space-time in the universe collapse into a dimensionless singularity back into how the universe started with the Big Bang, but at these scales unknown quantum effects need to be considered (see Quantum gravity).

How can the universe have no beginning?

The catch is that

by eliminating the singularity

, the model predicts that the universe had no beginning. It existed forever as a kind of quantum potential before ‘collapsing’ into the hot dense state we call the Big Bang. … The upshot is that this work eliminates the need for an initial singularity of the Big Bang.

Who created universe?

Many religious persons, including many scientists, hold that

God

created the universe and the various processes driving physical and biological evolution and that these processes then resulted in the creation of galaxies, our solar system, and life on Earth.

Who created the God?

Responses. Defenders of religion have countered that the question is improper: We ask, “If all things have a creator, then who created God?” Actually, only created things have a creator, so it’s improper to lump God with his creation.

God

has revealed himself to us in the Bible as having always existed.
