Since I am neither an astrophysicist nor a religious zealot looking to prove everybody else wrong, I don't see a compelling reason to figure any of that drivel out. I sincerely do not care how the universe came to be. Interesting to read about on my lunch break, but the different theories do nothing to altar my beliefs.

Something, nothing, yada yada ..... I'm something, you're something, we live in and around something; that's all that really matters to me.

His statement regarding the relativity of something to nothing is just dualism, innit? Watts said a drove of similar stuff but he got a lot of it from Carl Jung. And Taoism. Obviously.

Yes, I think you are right in the case of the OP, dualism. Maybe I was just hoping someone would argue Zen or Taoism. (I didn't pay any attention to OP's religious views till later in the thread.)

I could if you really wanted me to. You have to say please though. Wink
