Philosophy 201 Guidelines
Cogito ergo sum
Here in the Philosophy forum we will talk about all the "why" questions. We'll have conversations about the way in which philosophy and theology and religion interact with each other. Metaphysics, ontology, origins, truth? They're all fair game so jump right in and have some fun! But remember...play nice!

Atheism is the cult of death, the death of hope. The universe is doomed, you are doomed, the only thing that remains is to await your execution...

Originally posted by JimL View PostWhere exactly would that be? My guess is that fields are everywhere, and so don't come from anywhere. As Vilinken defined it, everywhere outside the universe is a realm of unrestrained gravity, a pre-geometric state in which all of our basic notions of space, time, energy, entropy etc. lose their meaning. Fields are Locke's something rather than nothing, and in answer to his question as to why they exist would be, it's simply a brute fact.Atheism is the cult of death, the death of hope.

And one thing that is becoming more clear (see the above link) is that there is not a path for matter and energy being eternal into the past.

And while I remember Tassman giving good arguments he is not claiming certainty when it does not exist, so I don't see him fighting tooth and nail but rather sharing his qualified view. And did you loose out on the difference between science and religion?

Nonsense Tass, that is not what Vilenkin is saying at all. The quantum vacuum only comes into existence after the creation event, they only thing necessary are the laws of physics in the "Platonic sense." There are no physical things necessary:
The vacuum does not pre-exist the creation event, the vacuum comes from the creation event, start at about 4:50, it is perfectly clear.

That is as close to nothing as you can get, but what is still required here is the laws of physics. So the laws of physics should still be there, and they are definitely not nothing.

Oh stop Tass, he is clearly saying that a universe can come about from no prior physical conditions, he not only said this in the video but in the articles I have linked. The only necessary requirements are the laws of physics - in the platonic sense. Does all this shake your atheistic faith?
That is an intuitive question belonging to the realm of classical physics; it has no meaning in the non-intuitive world of quantum mechanics where the quantum vacuum, refers to "nothing" i.e. the absence of matter, space and time as we normally understand them to be. "we now know that even empty space is filled with energy, vibrating with electromagnetic fields and so-called virtual particles dancing in and out of existence on borrowed energy courtesy of the randomness that characterizes reality on the smallest scales, according to the rules of quantum theory". And " Following a similar quantum logic, theorists have proposed that whole universes, little bubbles of space-time, could pop into existence, like bubbles in boiling water, out of this nothing".
Second is nothing, without even space and time.

Absolute nothingness - has no existence. Else it would not be nothingness. And of course it never was.. . . the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; . . . -- Romans 1:16 KJV
. . . that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: . . . -- 1 Corinthians 15:3-4 KJV
Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: . . . -- 1 John 5:1 KJV

Vilenkin's nothing has no prior space, Krauss doesn't commit to either model - space or no space, and I see you dishonestly misquoted the article!
You conveniently left out the "Second is nothing, without even space and time.." And on this second nothing a universe can pop into being without a pre-existing space! So what is this "stuff" that is causing this? Where does it exist if there is no pre-existing space?

Tass, but it is ex nihilo - creation from nothing (literally nothing to use Vilenkin's words). Not that Vilenkin believes that God did it, he said he had no opinion on that subject. And Tass like it or not, all this is getting closer to the theological ex nihilo model. And it is not that I think Scripture even demands an ex nihilo event for our present universe.
Tass, you were caught with your pants down again. You misquoted the article, and left an important distinction out (creation from a condition where there was no pre-existing space). Just as you falsely accused me on the Vilenkin universe/multiverse question. That the multiverse, not just our universe, needs a beginning.Atheism is the cult of death, the death of hope.
