Default Re: Something Eternal

[ QUOTE ]
0 + 0 = 0

If there were ever a time in the history of the universe that there was absolute nothing, zip, nada. Then I am convinced there would still be nothing. This proves to me that there must be something that trancends time and is Eternal. Nothing has ever just popped into being without a cause, so I can logically reason that that sort of thing doesn't occur.

Your thoughts...

It's a bit more complicated than that. According to the big bang theory, there never was a time when there was nothing; it existed as a singularity, eternal (kinda), with properties that are very difficult to understand, given the different nature of reality in that state.

Read <u>A Brief History of Time</u> by Stephen Hawking for a much better explanation; it's a very cool book.
