As Nobel laureate physicist Frank Wilczek has put it, “The answer to the ancient question, ‘Why is there something rather than nothing?’ would then be that ‘nothing’ is unstable.” … In short, the natural state of affairs is something rather than nothing. An empty universe requires supernatural intervention–not a full one. Only by the constant action of an agent outside the universe, such as God, could a state of nothingness be maintained. The fact that we have something is just what we would expect if there is no God.
