Have you tried learning a bit more about big bang cosmology? I am currently listening to Sean Carroll, and there's quite a bit of physics that goes on with the 'something from nothing' question. Additionally, you may find it difficult for 2+2 to equal something other than 4, but there are other concepts and physical laws that may be different.
