>>11216961It is a question of science in terms of logic. We can also agree on some undeniable facts.
Statement 1: There is at least one universe. (From all matter even what is beyond the observable universe, or conservatively, solely a single consciousness)
Statement 2: If there exist more than one universe, then in those universes in which life is incapable, there will never be a something able to ponder why there is a something, without a consciousness to perceive or interact with it, it is nothing.
Statement 3: No matter the improbability of life, the something (that which to us is tangible and observable) is there due to our perception of it.
Possibilities
Scenario I
There is one universe that is infinite and unchanging, under static rates of change and is going to eventually drift apart to nothing. There is something because it hasn't spread far out enough yet.
Scenario II
There is one universe that is unstable and iterative, which continually collapses in on itself and then rushes back out, forming a new universe under new conditions. There is something because the last time the universe collapsed in on itself, the following inversion (the Big Bang) led to a metastable universe with appropriate gravitational settings, electromagnetic properties, and material composition to allow for Genesis and the proliferation of life.
Scenario III
There is no universe, consciousness and the ability to perceive something is a reflection of nothing tangible/real, it is a condition. There is a something due to a imposed condition or from the background noise of lost/non-material particles from a boundless void.
Scenario IV
There are many many universes, it is by pure chance that the universe is capable of supporting life. There is something due to the inevitability of a universe supporting complex life.
Scenario V
There is one universe that is infinite and unchanging, created by God for the purpose of doing God's will on Earth. There is something because He wills It.
