But maybe this did all pop up out of nowhere. However illogical that may seem to someone, that doesn’t mean it can’t happen.
The total net energy contained in our universe could be zero. We need not have borrowed anything to come into existence, and since our universe may sum up to nothing even now, it seems unreasonable to suppose to had to have been something before it has become nothing.
Quantum physics seems to say something could actually be nothing, therefore something could most certainly come from nothing.
