You can dodge further by saying that causality only exists in space time, so asking what "caused" the start of space time is incoherent. But, "it just did" has never been a satisfactory answer outside the halls of churches and seminaries, so this dodge continues to be unsatisfying.
- mensetmanusman 6y agoThe phrasing is worded wrong here: “it just did” has never been a satisfactory answer inside of churches or seminaries. That is why almost all the metaphysical discussion in these areas of human thought are around why we exist (in human terms). “it just did” has been a satisfactory answer outside of churches or seminaries. This is why almost all discussion of why there is something rather than nothing in secular academia is ‘meh, impossible to know, don’t worry about it’
