If space is defined as the distance between objects then space is created with the expansion of the Big Bang. The problem is you are trying to imagine something prior to the universe based on intuitions derived from the universe.Atreyu:
It's all very simple Fooloso. Just think of how ordinary science imagines it - how it was before the Big Bang.
A point is without dimension. It marks a location in space. It is not a space and takes up no space.A geometric point is a "space" which lacks space.
Here you have changed how you use the term ‘point’. As far as I understand it, if such a thing were to occur all kinds of weird stuff (a technical term) would happen. As soon as we start to imagine absolute nothing we are imagined something.If we compress the Universe into a point, it will become absolutely nothing.
The Point contains everything in the entire Universe and yet, at the same time, it is absolute Nothingness.
It would not contain everything in the universe. It would destroy everything that was in the universe. If energy is conserved in such a state then the energy would be converted. You would not have absolute Nothingness but an energy state without things.
And that is why we end up talking nonsense as soon as we start talking about nothing.Our puny minds cannot fully grasp this idea.
From the Daoist perspective Everything and Nothing do not co-exist. You are reifying nothing. Turning nothing into something. Nothing is not a mode of existence; it is the absence of existence. It is that from which all that exists emerges and to which it returns. The myriad things, each in its own time, did not exist, then they did, and then they no longer exist.But the impossible co-existing duality of Everything and Nothing is represented in the Big Bang model by the geometric point.
To contain means either to physically have one thing inside another or to include as members of a set. The empty or null set does not contain everything, it has no members. To say that nothing exists is not to say that nothing is something that exists. Existence does not refer to nothing but to things, if nothing exists then there is not anything. The absence of things is not everything or Everything. If we were to list everything in a void there would be no items in the list. To say that in the void everything is nothing is a linguistic joke.The Void is what Everything is when nothing exists. It is Nothing and yet it somehow "contains" Everything....
