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.

If anything, the cause-and-effect relationships between everything that exists seems to lend strength to the notion that the universe itself had a cause, doesn’t it? It still comes down to faith, but which is easier to believe?
