Why is 'she' specifying "a possible world where no natural world existed"? Has anyone ever observed or found evidence for any other kind of world? If not, why would anyone suppose anything else at all exists? I don't get it.
She's basically asserting that something cannot "come from" nothing, therefore the only naturalist's response to the question of "Why there is something" is to postulate a past eternal universe. The possible world business entered in because Alex K was quibbling about the assumptions about the nature of time included in her original hypothetical.
