You ignored the first point: This is a fundamental principle. Something and nothing cannot coexist. If there is something there is not nothing. So how...
Not entirely. I’m discussing space, something with qualities, with properties. You’re discussing nonexistence, no properties, no qualities. It isn’t j...
Then to what are you referring? Nothing? That doesn't make sense. Reference to a thing is acknowledgement of that thing. In this case a conceptual thi...
Non-thinking is a quality or attribute, a state similar to nonconsciousness. It is attributed to some thing. Shoelaces are considered to be non-thinki...
Nothingness (nothing, nonexistence) and space, along with their differences, are clearly defined in the original essay. Space has properties, volume a...
Correct. All things exist. All things are. All things are existence. "Are existence" is admittedly a bit redundant; however, "are" does denote "existe...
Existence is unlimited in extent generally speaking. In a sense parts can limit other parts but as expressed they also give variance to existence, the...
First let's establish what a pocket is. A "pocket" is, in common parlance, usually considered to be a compartment or area designed for, designated for...
Things have quantity, extent and duration as conceded. Existence, as defined, is all things. Existence is all quantities, all extents and all duration...
As stated, the idea is not that existence is completely physical. Each time someone applies for or receives a grant they are doing so to study an aspe...
Existence (n.): Being; that which is perceived, at least in part; that which is interacted with, at least in part, in some way. In context of this ess...
I wouldn't say their ideas apply to existence as much as their ideas are part of existence. While these ideas certainly provide insight they also serv...
That's the issue. Does it need to be known? Do we need to know? Isn't that about us? Isn't that our issue as conscious entities? Existence just is. Th...
"I think therefore I am" is a statement made by a conscious, thinking entity. Naturally, obviously, the statement is self-referential. The reference, ...
It isn't a contradiction. The original essay clearly states "that which can be observed". There are many things, there are many parts of existence tha...
I contend existence is not entirely "based on observation". Existence exists, existence is, whether observed or not. In fact, sensory organs, or the a...
Actually, the very idea of being able to view existence as infinite, or being able to view existence as finite, subjectively, further alludes to the o...
The aforementioned premise also applies to a beginning, or an origin concerning existence. Where did existence begin? How would existence begin? The p...
I am asserting it. Certain things must be discussed, they must be argued, as actual measurement or observation would not be feasible. Tell me, where d...
Hence my statement in the original essay: "Existence is infinite, however, our limited perspective creates an illusion of limitation. From this perspe...
"Origin" is often viewed as "beginning" or a "source". Of which I contend there was no origin, there was no beginning, there was no source concerning ...
Existence is not a being. Existence is being. "Being" does indeed "exist"; "being" is another term for "existing", and "existing" is defined as "exist...
You bring up some great points. Matter-energy, or chemical-energy phenomena obviously existed before we were born or before we were conscious in order...
Do you mean "everything" as a whole, or "every thing" as individual things? What we perceive as individual things certainly are limited, they are not ...
That's exactly the issue here; you are seeking a "why" or a purpose. There is no "why" to existence. Existence just is, as stated in the original essa...
If you have no doubt about it, if you have no doubt things exist, what precisely is the issue? I have expressed how existent things, how existence, ca...
If there was never nothing, if there was never nonexistence, if these were never states as you suggest, then why would existence need a beginning? You...
If there was never nothing, if there was never nonexistence, if these were never states as you suggest, then why would existence need a beginning? You...
I assert existence is infinite because I see no evidence of nothing, I see no real evidence of nonexistence. Only nothing, or nonexistence could limit...
I do not claim to know. I am asserting. I am sharing these thoughts and ideas here for argument in attempt to demonstrate their validity. Some things ...
I am linking tangible, observable phenomena with existence. We are able to observe and interact with innumerable things and do so on a daily basis. Th...
"Existence exists" simply means "existence is". "Nonexistence does not exist" simply means "nonexistence is not". I'm asserting that existence concern...
Nonexistence is not the same as death. Death is the breaking down of a living organism, it is the cessation of vital faculties. Death could be viewed ...
Actually the implication is closer to "that which exists can be observed because it exists, and that which does not exist cannot be observed because i...
I am simply asserting that existence is infinite in extent and eternal in duration, that there is nothing other than existence, and that we are parts ...
Empty space is still part of existence, it is still existent just like the atom and does not serve to limit existence. "96% of the universe is missing...
You mean you have no funds in your bank account? You should still have "$0.00", or zeros, or digits in your bank account representing that you have no...
