Just words.....
I’m not sure I follow the logic of Lawrence Krauss...
If something came from nothing, nothing is not nothing, it is something. By attributing creative powers to nothing, one has made something out of nothing.
He seems to be attributing creative powers to emergence, without any evidence nor cause-and-effect relationship.
One thing is for sure. Nothing is for sure....
“Nothing from nothing leaves nothing/gotta have somethin’/if you wanna be with me...’’.
Every Sunday we Orthodox pray in Divine Liturgy about—and to—God who “brought us from non-existence into being”.
I don’t agree.
And so according to this clown, I know nothing. But nothing turns into everything so I must know everything - or at least I will know everything as soon as everything comes from the nothing I know. Or something like that.
(Oh man, my brain hurts.)
But something had to be here before nothing was here otherwise there would be no place for nothing to come to.
I prefer the version that has been around for years; decades?
"At first there was nothing.
Then it exploded,"

That the universe arose from nothing is pretty consistent with Christian teaching which is that God created everything ex nihilo, (out of nothing). His problem is that he cuts the creator out of the equation and supposes that somehow matter can act, (self create), and do so before it exists, which is astonishingly silly.
Aristotle is throwing up the bullshit flag
Rene Descartes said, “I think, therefore I am.” I say, “I think I think, therefore I think I am.”
Best anti-Darwin arguement presented is in “Godless” Ann Coulter
I was in the era of endoctrinization that included Locke, Berkley, and Hume, the empiricists, if you can believe that.
So? I believe the universe came from nothing, but I'm a creationist. The universe sprang into existence when God willed it. Isn't that pretty much what the Bible says?
At some point, evolution or creation both come down to faith. This universe is all chance, or it was created. If it was created, and I believe it was, then trying to define or fully understand the Creator is a fool's errand. Why? Because our measuring tools are based entirely on this universe. A universe Creator would be beyond time, length, height, width, mass, etc. The existence or lack of a creator cannot be proved using earthly measures. At some point, it comes down to faith.
For me, the Bible offers a compelling, plausible explanation for why we're here. I believe Christ was telling the truth. Therefore, I believe.
This guy is getting paid to preach his faith, not teach science.
What drivel. Something from nothing? No excitement in wondering how God created it all? Nothing is worth exploring nor left to discover if there is a Creator? He makes no sense.
A guy walks into the Dalai Lama’s pizza shop and asks, “Can you make me one with everything?”
What is the thing called that contains all the universes?
