So, basically what I've gathered from this discussion is that true nothing isn't possible because it'd be something. So ex nehilo then is just a dated concept based on a simplistic understanding of the universe? I doubt theists ever thought of "nothing" as being no space or time before it was pointed out that empty space isn't "nothing" anymore. Before I learned about the modern theistic understanding of "nothing" I always thought of "nothing" as dark empty space in a vacuum. That's probably what theists thought of as too until the past 100 years.
