Welcome back Nex. Just out of curiosity although this is irrelevant to the topic here, are you still working on whatever it was your were planning to do to my Soul?
What you two are saying defies itself with the facts of reality and that is why I have trouble believing it. Like every other *theory* it can not be proven and what's more this theory involves self-contradicting facts. For example nothing being something, nothing is not something that is exactly why it is called nothing. Nothing is nonexistent because if it were existent it would be something. Furthermore everything has a temperature because every object must be made of microscopic atoms and the movement of those atoms is what defines the temperature; so fast moving atoms means the object is hot and slow moving atoms means it is cold. If the atoms do not move at all then it is considered to be at sub-zero temperature; thus it still has temperature.
Then perhaps you wouldn't mind clarifying for that someone, Confucius? I'm sure he/she could argue the point regardless of how it's made.
As I said before; my point is that you can NOT give indisputable proof that this THEORY is correct. If you could then it would be in Science books by now and being taught as the truth. It is YOUR truth, maybe, but not necessarily THE truth. Earlier in this thread I gave a link to another thread called "Truth as Perspective" and that thread explains what I am saying here.
Does it occur to you that theories make science book all the time? The Evolution of man can't be proved or disproved and yet it seems more likely than the idea that we were formed from dirt and life breathed into us.
The beginning and the end don't matter as much anyway, as the simple fact that we are given a beginning and an end. We waste so much time questioning theories because we need a truth, and still where do we sit?
What if it were as simple as that truth is what we make/made it to be?
If you were naught at the beginning then why try to think one thing or another about the beginning? If you are naught at the end, the end sure won't care.
You are something if not everything or nothing, now. Why is this not where focus lies.
Regardless, though, if the mind can't make it past a logical linear point of view, perhaps this is the wrong place.
Maybe nothing is not something, and something may not be nothing, but one things for sure...these are just words.
I appear to be something, however in the scheme of things I may be nothing. Something that serves no purpose, and at the same time perhaps I am everything simply because purpose can not ask to be served. If I am to say that I am not me, it doesn't make me any less me, but what does make me not me is my belief that I am everyone and everything. It doesn't matter that in your eyes I may be nothing because in mine I am everything and nothing. The many and the few. The many and the one.
Fact, fiction, nor even belief are the enemy here.
Perception is the enemy. Kill it.
