I heard a great analysis of the eternal, and of origins.
If there was EVER a time in the past when there was ABSOLUTELY NOTHING, what would there be “today”? Nothing, of course.
So, there had to be something. But that “something” could neither be matter or energy, because either could not, according to scientific law, be eternal - they’d go to null or non-existance in the eternal before “now”.
So, that Something had to be Mind. The Eternal Mind, the I Am.
And it is this "Something" that so frightens the Mullahs of Science.
