The Mathematics of Nothing

  • 0/x=0: When nothing is divided, nothing is the result
  • x/0=impossible: You cannot divide a thing by nothing
  • 0+x=x: You cannot increase a thing by adding nothing to it
  • x-0=x: You cannot decrease a thing by removing nothing from it

Deductions

  • The conclusion from the mathematics of nothing is that, something cannot originate from nothing. For there to be something, there must have been something else

The Origin of Things

  • Everything we know, can see and can touch came from something.
  • There isn't anything that came from nothing.
  • If everything has an origin, what is the origin of origin?
  • There might be a line of successions of origins, however, no matter how far into infinity past this goes, there must be a first origin

The 'unoriginated' origin

  • For it to be the first origin, it has to be unoriginated
