Without mind thereвЂ™d be no time, since we project that, and thereвЂ™d be no time. What does consciousness have to do with our understanding of the universe? In this theory, mind is fundamental to reality. The question of why there is something rather than nothing seems useful in terms of looking at that grandeur of it, but really in the end it seems a little unhelpful for other topics that really matter. Ken asks what the fundamental base of all existence is. That tells us that we should be on the lookout for reality taking more forms than we realize now. That might be the least arbitrary form it takes, which goes back to PlatoвЂ™s idea of plentitude. Ken asks what allows physicists to think about these ideas, granted that the evidence is so sparse? Jim wonders whether there is not only something but also everything. John asks whether the concept of possible worlds in David LewisвЂ™ work is similar to what theoretical physicists are thinking about in terms of the multiverse. What would even answer the question? Jim wants to refine the question: maybe the question is nonsense, and it might lead us to a more intelligent question. Jim found the question when he was a high schooler and found a copy of HeideggerвЂ™s What is Metaphysics? He felt the question was at the intersection of all his interests: philosophy, science, and religion.

John and Ken invite Jim Holt author of Why Does the World Exist: An Existential Detective Story. Cause only makes sense in space and time, so one has to think about cause before space and time which wouldnвЂ™t make sense. No space, time, no nothing would be nothing. Space and time itself must pop out from something. Eternal void is no longer empty space, it is a vacuum of virtual particles. Roving Philosophical Report (6:25): Laurence Krauss, author of A Universe From Nothing is interviewed on the topic of nothingness.Is this a serious question, a silly question or both? How might we even answer it? Do we look for reasons or causes? Even if God made the universe, then would our answer have to explain GodвЂ™s existence? Even if thereвЂ™s not reason, could there be a cause, like the big bang? What if the world just is, as Bertrand Russell and David Hume thought? But Ken feels thatвЂ™s too big of a cop out.
