how can you create something from nothing ?

simple answer: Be God

[Camacha]

These just push the problem out. How did those universes get created.

Why do you insist things have had to be created? If anything, it shows the lack of imagination of humans. Things have to have a beginning, an end, and countable quantity (albeit very large). Anything that does not fit those properties is a problem and should be eliminated with reason.

simple answer: Be God

Word has it he does not exist either.

Removing the gender bias and interpreting the statement according to mosaic lexicon 'that which exists does not exist either' ............sounds quantum mechanical. lol.

Camacha, when will you ever learn, taboo. . . . . . . . . . dieties are off topic.

Simple, not religious answer:

Astounding scientific nonsense.

How does the laws of physics allow something to be created from nothing?

It depends on what you mean by "something" and "nothing". If you mean nothing as the absence of everything, they don't. The so called laws of physics only deal with quantifiable aspects of reality, whatever can be reduced to mathematical language. If the laws of physics apparently allow something to be created from nothing, that means whatever physicists left behind when they reduced an ontological entity to a quantity and called it "nothing" is what really allows something to be created.

A simple analogy is a fisherman who believes fish in a lake are created out of nothing because one day he catches nothing while fishing with a net, and the other day he catches something. He's missing the obvious fact that you can't catch fish smaller than the holes in the net.

Our universe is well balanced nothing mascarading as everything, works well until someone pulls back the curtain then we all disappear. Looks like we've pulled back the fish net ...........

[GeneralVeers]

I think we can safely pull back the curtain and peek at the nature of the Universe without disappearing.

True, we don't know what existed at or before the Big Bang, because we can't extrapol

[HoloYolo]

You could be thinking of the word nothing and then think of a different thing. You make something from nothing as you're bored.

(lol)
