It cannot come from nothing, nor disappear into nothing. It has always existed, and always will exist. The demonstrably real. The actuality. The timeless fact. Existence existing and continuing to exist is a necessary truth.
Quote:When it comes to God, he is Ultimate existence and a neccessary existence.Existence is what exists, i.e what is real. You don't get to put an asinine "Ultimate" tag on existence. You cannot segregate what is real from what is real just because your definition of god is not self-evident. This isn't the fucking Marvel comics.
If "god" is reality, the total sum of existence, then you are actually a pantheist/pandeist and therefore should amend your religious views to reflect this.
