Abstract

Nothing, defined as the absence of time, space, and matter, is often attributed to the creation of the universe. Theists ridicule the concept, and atheists say it is plausible. If nothing lacks time, space, and matter, I would propose that it could have non‑physical attributes such as love, intelligence, creativity, etc. The rebuttal to this would be that, in order to obtain these attributes and have them effectively, there must be something it can love or create. Thus, creation: nothing is God, and God is the absence of time, space, and matter. If nothing is attributed to creation, then an intelligent nothing is more plausible than a blank nothing.
