Potentially Big News On The Human Evolution Front

[Minimalist]

 I find the phrase, "something coming from nothing" to be an internally logically inconsistent statement.

Probably because it is bullshit.  The Big Bang Theory points to :

Most scientists now believe that we live in a finite expanding universe which has not existed forever, and that all the matter, energy and space in the universe was once squeezed into an infinitesimally small volume, which erupted in a cataclysmic "explosion" which has become known as the Big Bang.

Thus, space, time, energy and matter all came into being at an infinitely dense, infinitely hot gravitational singularity, and began expanding everywhere at once. Current best estimates are that this occurred some 13.7 billion years ago, although you may sometimes see estimates of anywhere between 11 and 18 billion years.

Thus, not "nothing" but "everything."


For "something coming from "nothing" you need to consult

1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

Gen 1

It is He Who created the Night and the Day and the sun and the moon: all (the celestial bodies) swim along each in its rounded course.

Sura 21:33

In the beginning, before there was any land of Egypt, all was darkness, and there was nothing but a great waste of water called Nun. The power of Nun was such that there arose out of the darkness a great shining egg, and this was Re. He was all-powerful, and he could take many forms. His power and the secret of it lay in his hidden name; but if he spoke other names, that which he named came into being.
"I am Khepera at the dawn, and Re at noon, and Tem in the evening," he said. And the sun rose and passed across the sky and set for the first time.
Then he named Shu, and the first winds blew; he named Tefnut the spitter, and the first rain fell. Next he named Geb, and the earth came into being; he named the goddess Nut, and she was the sky arched over the earth with her feet on one horizon and her hands on the other; he named Hapi, and the great River Nile flowed through Egypt and made it fruitful.
After this Re named all things that are upon the earth, and they grew. Last of all he named mankind, and there were men and women in the land of Egypt.

Egyptian creation myth

If you ask me the Egyptian myth far surpasses the other two tales.  At least it doesn't begin from "nothing."
