Not quite1The problem is that for matter and energy to do what matter and energy do, there has to be rules in place for matter and energy to obey. The formation of space and time followed rules. Specifically the law of conservation and quantum mechanics. These laws existed before space and time and defined the potential of everything which was possible. These laws are no thing.
And what does he say?
Because I am almost certain he does not believe as you do that the universe has existed forever.
If you had listened he contradicted your know-it-all claim that the laws of physics and nature are no thing.
Here is another well known scientist saying the same thing in a more jocular manner.
And they all agree with me that the universe popped into existence 14 billion years ago being created from nothing and being hardwired to create intelligence.
They admitted no such thing, they both are arguing that there is no such thing as nothing.
Can't you be honest about anything????
Maybe you should watch the videos, ed.![]()
Obviously you didn't!
In 2012 Krauss wrote a book titled, A Universe from Nothing.![]()
Where he admits nothing is something that actually has weight!!!!
You should read the book!
How do you know I didn’t?
Because it uses words you could never understand.
You mean like... it is possible for matter to have a beginning. In a closed universe the gravitational energy which is always negative exactly compensates the positive energy of matter. So the energy of a closed universe is always zero.
The energy of a closed system is NEVER zero, and space/time has a beginning, NOT energy.
Thank you for proving you could never understand a physics book.
Now you are arguing with Alexander Vilenkin, the Leonard Jane Holmes Bernstein Professor of Evolutionary Science and Director of the Institute of Cosmology at Tufts University.
Keep them logical fallacies coming!
Appeal to Authority
argumentum ad verecundiam
(also known as: argument from authority, ipse dixit)
Description: Insisting that a claim is true simply because a valid authority or expert on the issue said it was true, without any other supporting evidence offered. Also see the appeal to false authority .
Again... you are an internet troll arguing with Alexander Vilenkin, a world renowned Physicist. In this analogy you are the false authority.
I have reduced you to a broken record!
Winning hands keep getting played, Ed.
Except you are too STUPID to know you are losing.
