The Non-existance of Nothing



I have recently thought a lot about "Nothing" and have concluded that
"Nothing" (by itself)does not exist because the context is always
relative to something that does exist. How do you prove the existence of
"Nothing"? You can't... it's just not possible. As soon as you point
your finger at evidence it has become "Something" and therefore is not
"Nothing". "Nothing" has never existed and never will exist.

This conclusion may seem like common sense or irrelevant,but
it actually shows us that the argument for the theory of evolution has
a major flaw. The basic concept in evolution is that single celled
organisms evolved over time into complex organisms to
adapt to their environment . Where did the single celled organisms come
from? According to the theory they emerged from a "pool of matter"(Whatever
that's suppose to be?!) Yet again we must question where did this
"matter" come from? The answer will most likely be explained by the big
bang theory, which states that all matter was compressed into a
"pea-sized" particle. Where did that "pea-sized" particle come from?
This questioning continues narrowing down the possibilities to the point
where they conclude matter emerged out of NOTHING. Which shows that
both theories are therefore based on an assumption that "Nothing"
existed in the beginning. But if "Nothing" does not exist then neither
theories are a logical argument for existence... Thus bringing you back
to the question of where matter came from in the first place.

your argument for the absence of "nothing" is purely ontological. nothing is not something that can be thought of. by trying to think of nothing, you are thinking of something. you are trying to grasp the idea of nothing, which in and of itself, actually is something. nothing is an absence of all things, and youre basing your reasoning on the existence of the thought of nothing which is impossible for you or me to comprehend.
