In the beginning

Everything There Is To Know About Everything There Is




t has been written "In the beginning there was Nothing." This notion has been more responsible for the widespread ignorance about everything, than any other idea ever written mostly because, as a result of this idea, people tend to not consider nothing as important. So we will begin our examination of everything there is to know about everything there is with an analysis of this phrase.




To start, it is important to recognize that "nothing" is part of everything because if you leave anything out, you don't have everything, therefore, when we consider everything, nothing is included.



The use of the term "beginning" implies that there was a time when everything did not exist, however, since nothing is included -- and always has been -- we must conclude that everything has always existed, even if only in part. In the end, this means that there never was a beginning, and if there never was a beginning, there cannot be a middle, nor an end, so the entire concept of time is an illusion.



There is one other aspect of this extremely clever phrase which, although it is only of minimal relevance to our theme, we will clarify because it gives us a clue that perhaps the person who wrote it, did not wish it to be clearly understood. We refer to the use of the word "in" at the start of the sentence. If the term "beginning" were intended to refer to a time, or a period of time, it would have been more precise to use the word "at" or perhaps, "during," if a period were being implied.



The fact that the writer chose to use the word "in" implies that "the beginning" is some kind of container in which nothing was placed. When you consider the other observations we have already made about nothing, this certainly makes a lot more sense.
