This page is the most philosophical of all three websites: entangledenergy.net, entanglednucleons.net, and entangledstardust.net. It is merely a page of what ifs? It is a page just to have some fun thinking about how and why everything “exists.”
Imagine there is nothing. Nothing, that is, consisting of what we experience in our world – namely electromagnetic energy. Everything we experience is composed of electromagnetic energy. Everything in our world is made up of the oscillations of electric and magnetic energy. At least almost everything that we observe and feel. We do experience the effects of gravitational energy gradients that originate from the inherent energy of space, so this is an exception.
So what would nothing consist of? Of course, the immediate answer is nothing. It doesn’t exist? Well, then what doesn’t exist? Is it possible for nothing to exist? Or is it possible for nothing to not exist?
One way to look at nothing is to imagine it is total nonrandomness or total order. Nothingness is just the opposite of disorder. It is the very beginning of somethingness that will continue to move away from nonrandomness toward more and more randomness. It is the very beginning of somethingness that will move from low entropy to high entropy.
But what would nothingness consist of? If nothingness represents nonrandomess or perfect order, then it is composed of some sort of energy. Energy needs to be either potential or kinetic. Perfect order would require perfectly ordered potential energy since kinetic energy represents some degree of randomness.
So “nothing” may represent perfect order or non-randomness – or the highest possible level of energy. Our universe, and everything in it, moves toward its laziest possible existence – or lowest possible energy state and lowest possible energy level within that energy state. The laziest possible energy state and energy level of the universe exists when all its energy is in perfect randomness or complete entropy – or completely random “somethingness.”
Let’s consider the idea of paired universes. Universe pairs may exist in an energy relationship similar to that of electromagnetic energy, where one universe is expanding toward a low energy level by transferring some of its energy to its perpendicular “sister” universe, forcing it to converge toward a high energy level with its newly acquired energy. When the sister universe reaches its highest energy level (i.e., a state of “nothingness” – complete convergence, perfect order, perfect non-randomness), then there is a “big bang” or a series of “big bangs” accelerating it outward toward a lower energy level, forcing its sister universe to begin a convegence toward a higher energy level – the two systems oscillating between high and low energy levels.
So it seems that “somethingness” is more likely to exist than “nothingness” since everything, including “nothingness” will take the easiest or laziest path – from high energy level to a lower energy level. If “nothing” or “non-existence” represents perfect nonrandomness, it will immediately seek a lower energy level, accelerating toward “somethingness” with maximum randomness or entropy. How many universes does it take to keep “nothing” at its lowest possible energy level? Which one of us is willing to put a limit on nothing?
