That's because we live in a sea of "Something". However, it should be obvious that "Nothing" really exists and that it is the source of Everything. We should know that because the visible building block of the Universe is hydrogen, which evolves from "Nothing". Once "Nothing" creates hydrogen all things become possible. The hydrogen clumps together into giant balls and then ignites in a nuclear reaction to form stars, which create the heavy elements and real material.
Don't be silly... nothing is everything.

The problem is that the 4 assume there was NOTHING when the Universe came to be - which is something claimed but NOT established.
The Big Bang is established. But then, so is gravity.

What is energy that is not vibrating?
Nothing.

What's the difference?
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
