For those that like this kind of topic, there’s an amazing graphic novel called Logicomix. Even if you don’t like graphic novels, you won’t be able to put this down. The last part of what Neil was talking about is the philosophy of language, which is what Wittgenstein basically said all philosophy boils down to. And if you read this far, let me digress (not to be confused with deGrasse) a little further. Doesn’t Neil sort of make Wittgenstein’s argument here? In school we used to argue about which science was the science to rule them all. Biologists, chemists, and physicists all had a go to say they were on top, but I always felt it was Philosophy. “Philosophy, that’s not even a science. Are you crazy?” they said. True, Philosophy gets has the rep that it was supplanted by science in the search for truth and supplanted by religion in the search for wisdom. But when you really get down to it, Philosophy has the most grounded appreciation of the boundaries of reality. Every day, physicists discover amazing things about the material universe; yet, when an astrophysicist tries to explain the concept of ’nothing,’ as he strips away everything he can describe he realizes the concept itself starts to make less sense. This is because we do not interface with reality directly, we do so through the senses and, importantly, through language.
@wbiro3 ай бұрын
Words are tools, so the question is, how good is a word as a tool? As for modern philosophy's relationship to modern science, philosophy tells science which way to go. Science figures out how to go. (which way to go is Broader Survival).

@adamlindfors5082 Жыл бұрын
Firstly, nothingness can't itself have an existence which is a tautological consequence of what existence actually is. You can't use "nothing" and "existence" in the same sentence without contradicting yourself. The relation between existence and the absent of it could be expressed as follow: existence=E, non-existence=E-, nothing=non-existence, existence=everything, E/=E-=> existence is not nothing, E=E=>existence is everything. The potential for everything to exist must be true since if existence didn't cover some parts that could conceivable exist, nothingness or non-existence would therefore exist in some way which cant be true since that would imply that a paradox was realized. One way to imagine this is to imagine the set of reality, that would be the ultimate set containing absolutely everything which would include all sub-sets. But then you might wonder why this ultimate set doesn't contain the set of nothing. This can be explained by imagining the set of nothingness, the absent of existence illustrated as an empty ring containing nothing since the set of nothing consist of nothing inside of it. The area inside of it would be totally empty and blank. Since a set is defined by its elements, the set of nothing is the only set that could never exist. Therefore, it doesn't either exist as a sub-set of the all-encompassing set of reality. Since logic is the means by which existence is realized, defining existence and non-existence firstly requires the explanation for why that logical operation can be made. That is, why logic itself exists. This must be explained trough the means of using some kind of metalogic where you define logic with logic itself. The answer to why logic must exist in this metalogical sense is that analogues to existence, the absent of logic would itself require an attribution that can't be attributed to it without the presence of the attribute. Non-logic is the absence of logic, making a distinction is itself by nature logical and therefore logic must exist as the very nature of its own structure. The relationship between logic and reality could be expressed as simple as: Logic=the structure of that which is true, Existence=that which exists and therefore is also the complete set of truth, Logic=Reality. Since reality is all there is, it defines, configure and processes itself from this primordial state of infinite potential into every logical structure that could possible exist, since remember, logic and its product which is reality requires the mere possibility for anything to exist to actualize since L=E=Everything.

"The concept you're describing aligns closely with what some philosophical and spiritual traditions refer to as "absolute nothingness" or "the Void." This notion transcends even the concept of Sunyata in Buddhism, which deals with the emptiness of intrinsic nature but still acknowledges the interdependent existence of phenomena. In the highest sense, this "total, complete emptiness" would be beyond all physical, conceptual, and descriptive boundaries. It implies a state where there is no existence of any kind-not even the potential for existence, such as virtual particles or physical laws. This form of nothingness is often considered ineffable, meaning it cannot be described or conceptualized within the limits of human language and thought. Such a concept is often approached in mystical and metaphysical contexts rather than in scientific or philosophical discourse, where even the idea of describing "nothing" falls short. It is the ultimate transcendence of all dualities, concepts, and even the self-referential act of naming or describing. This idea pushes the boundaries of human cognition and language, pointing towards a profound and paradoxical state of pure, unconditioned nothingness." "Manjusri asked, World-honored one, what is the state of the unconditioned? Buddha said, The absence of thought is the state of the unconditioned." (Unconditioned in this context is referring to the awakened mind of a Buddha. It has not been taught that there is any difference good or bad, great or small, between the body, speech and mind of a Buddha, and the body, speech and mind of a sentient being. Your mind is already peaceful when still, and clearly apparent while in motion. This clarity and emptiness are nondual. Your mind is the Buddha from the very beginning. All thoughts and all dharmas (phenomena) are self-liberated into their own essence in the very instance of their arising. ❤😊

In science, the concept of "nothing" often challenges our understanding, as it can imply a vacuum, a state devoid of matter, or a theoretical absence of existence. This notion plays a critical role in fields like quantum mechanics and cosmology, where "nothing" can have profound implications. How might ongoing research into quantum fluctuations and the nature of voids further reshape our comprehension of what "nothing" truly means in the universe?

I think the deeper understanding is not that "nothing" doesn't exist but that it is impossible for us to observe "nothing". If you think about the time before you were born and didn't exist that would be "nothing" except we can't visualise, remember or imagine that because it doesn't have any connection with your existence. True "nothing" is completely incomprehensible but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

No guys stop it please... you're just TOO GOOD together. I watched "oh god" (after Neil said "quantum physics") at least 4 times. I know this comment will drop into nothingness, but how much I would love an answer on the question I'm about to write. I found strong similarities(if not exact same concepts) with quantum physics and some of the eastern cultures. Some concepts about Buddhism are so similar to quantum physics that its terrific. I really can't take my head of this thought: the fact that they seemed to have focused their research into the existential and experiential side of the spectrum of life. Differently from the western culture which has developed the "external" research. We're directed outward. They are inward. If I'm not exaggerating in this next words, we could say that science, even with its own beautiful and surely useful efforts, finds itself in front of a wall when trying to determine what consciousness might be. Simply because you can't prove it exists. Question is: If there is nothing to observe, but you can still experience or describe nothing (as you two were saying), who is doing that? Who is experiencing suthing?? Who can describe nothing? I'm asking who's the operator doing this operation. Other question, connected to this one is: If I knew every atom in your body, would I know who you are? "Who" is the question that these cultures have explored and they seemed to have touched the same exact results that science has. Which makes perfect sense to me. In fact, as long as everything is life, even ourselves, if we start a research from one side or the other (if the objective is the same: truth) the result should still be the same. You're meddling with the same thing: "reality", just from two different directions. Though, if the fact that science limits itself to what it can prove, also obviosuly suggests that if there were to be things that are unprovable but still existing, then you can't say that you're looking for the theory of everything. And you'll never know that, because you can't prove them. I think it's a very basic logical "mistake" (please don't get me wrong I'm absolutely not saying that science is useless.... away... far away from that. I'm just saying that it should not be too strict in its approaches, even though they might be very useful as they certainly are. Though, if you want to be strict, and just observe what is provable with your method, then say that you're looking for the theory of something. Or of some part of this reality, and not of everything. Certainly, if existing things that can't be proven by science exist, as consciousness might be, science will never know about them. So I'm just suggesting an exchange of points of views between these two wonderful ways of research. I love science, I love this reality, I love these two guys spreading happiness and beautiful information together.

This could explain why we haven't found the theoretical "center" of our universe and why everything is rapidly expanding outward. Also, to believe in an all-powerful creator, would still leave you with the same question: if "nothing" cannot be, where did this creator come from?

I like how he went super meta at the end there because once he described the nothing that doesn't have matter or the laws of physics or time I was thinking to myself "But then you've still got something because you know what that nothing is and can describe why it's nothing. If it can be identified then it's not nothing anymore". You really did an amazing job this time. ❤️
@CorwinLogrus3 жыл бұрын
and once you reach this level you can even continue on for infinity since every conceptualization based around subtracting the previous conceptualizations creates a new defined concept that needs to be subtracted from itself. Taking the though experiment to it's limit leaves you with two opposite perpetual infinities: that which is infinitely 'more' nothing than itself, and that which is infinitely not nothing, ie: everything. Which to me makes sense since it's basically a description of the 'purest' quantum state and the 'most mixed' quantum state 'Q: What gets bigger the more you take away from it?' 'A: A hole'
