Can you define 'nothing'

The absence of any and all somethings is nothing.

Describing something doesn't change the state of what you are describing since the description is not the thing.

Nothing may be found between George W. Bush's ears.

Now that's something. :wink:

O
Nothing: what life owes you.
O
Nothing: what holds power over you.
O
Nothing: what the universe offers you.
O
Nothing: what stands in your way.

OO

I tried describing the absence of money in my wallet when I went to the store, hoping to make something out of nothing, but they stubbornly cling to the philistine belief that nothing is nothing. We'll see who has the last metaphysical laugh, though! Muahahaha. Just as soon as I grab something to eat...

"If you can describe the idea of nothing then you are describing something,
therefore nothing exists."

The key word in your sentence is "idea". You are describing the "idea" of nothing. It is an idea you are describing, not nothing.

Ethmer....indeed YOU must "exist" to "voice the idea".

This is a key philosophical issue...."existence requires an observer"...all "things" require a "thinger"...."nothing" being "the absence of a potential thing" in the mind of the observer.

Existence is relative not absolute.

Concentrate your mind to "nowhere."

Cheers, to that!!

Nothing: What isn't there, but you wish you had. Basically, if you look at it, nothing IS something. It is an absence, a histerical idea of what was there, or what would be there. I believe that nothing is something.
