Creatio Ex Nihilo - Forming Something out of Nothing?

[AFTT47]

As Christians, "out of nothing, nothing comes" is a philosophical claim which, as this thread has shown, is more or less reasonable. If there were indeed nothing at some point, (i.e. no god, no matter, no energy, no space, no time, no potentiality, etc.), then the fact that, today, there exists something, demands a pretty elegant explanation, if not an impossible one.

Then there was always something - the nature of which is unknown - OR something did indeed come from nothing by an unknown process. Invoking God is speculation at best. Invoking a specific God (such as the Christian God) is simply pulling an answer out of your ass. If a God, why not Allah, Vishnu or the Q from Star Trek-The Next Generation?
