Why Something Rather Than Nothing?

[bennyboy]

Let possible world Empty be defined as follows: ForAll(X I can think of)[X does not exist in Empty]. Then

. . . then cogito ergo ! ThereExists[Empty]

The only non-thing that can conceivably fit that description is "goodness." Goodness is not a thing but a kind of force, a primal principle that permeates all, that creates this world, so that its inhabitants might enjoy life or try to. That is what we mean when we say "God."

Your heretical equivocations make baby Jesus cry. Nobody means that when they say "God," except for closet atheists (aka theologists) who want a definition that is so nebulous even a sensible, educated person might be able to accept it.
