It seems obvious to me that the universe has either evolved from nothing or from something? I would find the former idea inconceivable. Maybe I would be in good company here, as both Shakespeare's King Lear and Julie Andrews' Maria in The Sound of Music held that "Nothing comes from nothing".
The 'something' from which all that exists has evolved is what I understand to be God.
I reckon we either have God in our lives or we have one of two things, an empty space or a false god.. As all nature "abhors a vacuum", what do we put in that space?
