Can something come from nothing

[Neo-Scholastic]

For example:
You can't make something blue using only red LEGOs. Likewise, you can't make something out of a whole lot of nothing (which is pretty much all you have, Rob).

What if the philosophical nothing was never a reality?

That's kind of the point. What I think you mean is this: what if philosophical nothing was impossible. That's a good question and definitely worth pondering. In the meantime, I would say that the fact that there is something (now) prevents there from being nothing. The question remains why is there something (now).

But what if time and space have existed for a past infinite? A past beyond the big bang, beyond the known barrier to information about that past...? A past unknown and, as far as we can tell nowadays, unknowable.

That's entirely possible. Nothing stops accidental sequences from regressing into infinity.

You don't understand the fallacy of composition? It's not something I made up. Go look it up for yourself. You don't seem to grasp logical fallacies in general.

You just demonstrated that properties sometimes carry over from the parts to the whole. Sometimes is not always.

You are literally claiming to know more about reality than all of the top scientists combined. Do you think that is reasonable?

Oh, now I see! if x=0+0+0+0... x doesn't have to be 0. You are so logical, Rob! How did I not see that! :-)

"Nothin' plus nothin' leaves nothin' / Ya gotta have something if you wanna be with me." Billy Preston seems a lot more reasonable than your "top scientists".
