God is so quiet

And there is no possible world where reality could have been nothing, because that doesn’t make any sense.  You’re complicating this unnecessarily, Steve.

If you believe abstract objects are something, then I agree with you. There are no possible worlds where there could have been nothing at all--because abstract objects persist across all possible worlds. This does not mean at all that there has to be something concrete (like universes) in all possible worlds--not at all. All concrete things (like universes) are contingent on something else for their existence.
