Whats the scientific name of that "something from nothing" law that has no basis in logic?

Question

people refer to it alot when referring to the big bang, creationism vs Darwinism, etc

Answer 1

eri is almost correct, the expression she gave is misspelled. The correct Latin is "ex nihilo". There is no "law" however, it's just an expression. Life is thought to be able to arise from inorganic materials, this is called "abiogenesis" and it is not "something from nothing", unless you consider that such a thing as a "life force" exists. But, you should note that complex organic molecules such as chlorophyll, vitamin B12, and cholesterol have been synthesized in the lab, so the life force doesn't really seem to exist at all. As for the Big Bang, you need to read Hawking's books to understand it fully; if you treat space and time as one, "space-time", and then assume that it has a spherical (actually, hyperspherical) shape, then the laws of physics hold at the beginning of the universe as well, and there is no "ex nihilo" at all.

Answer 2

Creation ex nihlo?  That's Latin, not 'scientific'.  No one is saying it came from nothing - just the people who don't understand it.  Look up pair production to see how things can seem to come from nothing.

Answer 3

YOUMATER THATS IT RIGHT LOL
