Is "empty space" empty (only reasonable answers)
#7
RE: Is "empty space" empty (only reasonable answers)
By empty you mean it needs to actually contain nothing? Or not contain nothing?
My argument with the galaxy expanding, is that it can only expand into something.

Like having a virtual OS residing not on a fixed partition, but a dynamic partition.
The OS will expand as needed.
But with this example, there is somewhere to expand to, until the hard disk runs out of space.
With the universe, I don't believe it is like this. There is no "real finite hard disk" to fill up.

To me nothing means void.
Void may exist which spontaneously created the BB, but's that's a different line of thought.

Therefore, based on void being nothing, it has always existed, so the matter/energy are free to travel through effortlessly.

After reading through it, I've realised that I have contradicted myself.
I blame that on myself for not defining things properly and also the lack of the language... Mine anyway.
Also with a little sprinkling of crazy and stupid.
No God, No fear.
Know God, Know fear.
