<h1> We Take This Vast Universe For Granted But Why Did Something Come From Nothing? </h1>

<h3> Why is there something rather than nothing? </h3>

Where there is there necessarily is something. To say "there is nothing" is to speak of something, in particular, of something that is, and this contradicts with the "nothing" we supposed we were speaking of. So you cannot have nothing without something, right?

You can rephrase it, but it won't change the central principle. For example: "Why does anything exist" seems like an absurdly trivial question when one reminds oneself something needs nothing to exist. So nothing does not exist. So something does exist. Let's not prevaricate either. 

<h3> Looking at it from a different perspective </h3>

I believe behind all the confusion it is just a play on word with language that highlights an important truth. There are limitations to thought. These questions smack of a kind of absurdity but, in so doing, demonstrate our intellectual limitations, which are worthy of consideration. I guess sometimes we don't have the answers for everything and many of us are naive of the world.

Many people see it as "nothing cannot exist. Therefore something has to" but that evades the question (it presumes existence). In any case, the real answer to the question is that, contrary to popular belief, nothingness is the utter lack of constraint...a realm of unbound potential in which the laws of logic just do not apply. It is something which stands outside of our dualistic world.

The universe as we know it is a self-consistent, self-restrictive and self-actualising potential, timelessly emerges from this background of pure freedom unto itself. So basically, nothing cannot exist because "out of nothing everything comes". However, for logical reasons, only one potential can bring itself into existence, and that potential is when I think about it has to be God.

So the universe is necessarily self-contained, we can deduce that it behaves much like a mind. When we attempt to answer the obvious question "whose mind", the answer turns out to be the mind of God. And by "God", I mean an omnipotent, omniscience, omnipresent, omnibenevolent entity. Some may say people use God as the answer as we do not know enough about the world, but I don't think that is the case here.
