Ontological Mathematics & the Theory of Everything Part 1
In this video I answer the question as to why something, anything at all, exists rather than nothing?
The Idealist philosophy of Ontological Mathematics by Mike Hockney has now answered this question!
How do we arrive at a self-explanatory understanding of existence where we can stop the infinite regress of appealing to something else outside of existence to create what we know as existence?
The answer to existence must be self-contained and appeal to nothing outside of itself.

If absolute nothing is true nothing, then net nothing can’t exist as his definitions are contradictory. Refer: Law of Noncontradiction.
The rest is just playing with word definitions.
I understand that disproving God is the objective, so I’ll play the same game.
God doesn’t exist, so God is nothing. But nothing is something and therefore God exists.
Again, refer: Law of Noncontradiction.
My brain now hurts 🙂

Hi Ozwedge,
Because you seem to understand LOGIC and I do not, I address this comment to you because I assume you may not have read Henry Crew and Alfonso de Salvio’s English translation (1914) of Galileo’s ‘Dialogues Concerning Two New Sciences’(1638). For I had not after 10 years of higher education in physical sciences because my professors of physical sciences had not suggested that I should . So I carried on this tradition by never suggesting to my chemistry students of 20+ years that they should read it.
So I ask, instead of assuming you haven’t read it, have you ever read this book, or the following: “According to the common saying, sight can teach more and with greater certainty in a single day than can precept even though repeated a thousand times.” or “Intuitive knowledge keeps pace with accurate definition.”? (Louis Elzevir,, publisher of Galileo’s 1638 book).
Have a good day, Jerry

Net nothing cannot logically exist because motion is something not nothing.

Hello Jerry:
I think maybe you spend too much time in your ivory tower academic fantasy land. Even after they cart you off to your high rise urban rat hole, you will still be ruminating about Galileo while counting your carbon credits.
