No one knows for sure how the universe really started. One hypothesis is that there's no such thing as absolute nothingness, and that universe began from quantum vacuum, which is as close to absolute nothingness as it currently seems possible to get. There are numerous other possibilities that are mathematically sound and agree with what is already known, but we need more evidence to say which one is most likely to be correct with some certainty.

There's no such thing as nothing in capital letters which could have given rise to the initial expansion, but it is possible that nothing in small letters could have.

I don't know of any atheists who think it was NOTHING that created the universe, although most Christians maintain that God created the universe from NOTHING, which I find a little odd: if God is omnipresent, where was this NOTHING he created the universe from?

Most of us have never posted a youtube video about atheism. You don't know us. We don't care what you want and we don't care if you change your mind. Do us a favor and stay a believer.
