Some questions that need to be answered

[therationalist]

'Something comes from something, nothing comes from nothing.' If this is true, then how do I solve the 'paradox of existence', because it means something should have always existed in order for EXISTENCE to be.

What would be the nature of the above 'something'? in other words, is it a whole something? a lot of things together? something out of our imagination? etc.

It all depends how you define something and nothing. But generally science allows nothing to create something. If you get rid everything from our world, for example laws of physics, time, space etc... we'll get nothing, but that nothing will still have properties which can spontaniously pop something into existence.

Besides we create something out of nothing everyday. Take the light bulb for an example. It creates light (stream of fotons) when we flip a switch. You might say it's not created out of nothing because we use power for it to work. Yes, but the fotons never existed before flipping a switch.

Kinda mind blowing if you think about it

the examples you have given above seems to be a change in the properties of matter or energy. I might have not been able to explain my question properly. In other words, according to the law of conservation of energy, it is neither created nor destroyed. so how is it possible for something to come out of NOTHING.

so my question is, the things we see around today caused from prior things, but HOW DID IT ALL START?
