Being can come from non-being

[Mister Agenda]

Sure, the universe could be more of a mindfuck than it already is. But are we epistemologically justified, as far as we know, to accept the idea that being can come from absolute no-being given how counter intuitive it is and seemingly illogical and given we haven't observed such a thing?

My own intuition is that absolute nothingness is a self-contradictory state of affairs and therefore could never have really existed. Literally, lacking time, absolute nothingness could not even 'last' an instant. I think the quantum foam Krauss describes may be as little of something as it's possible for there to have ever been.
