Most Awesome Raithere Dude,
Again, I Thank You for your discussion!
According to the site you gave me, “The Casimir effect is caused by the fact that space is filled with vacuum fluctuations, virtual particle-antiparticle pairs that continually form out of nothing and then vanish back into nothing an instant later.” From my ignorance (and I emphasize that) of the subject I would still have to make some very basic conclusions.
1. “The Casimir effect is caused…” Still looks a lot like cause and effect at work not something from absolute nothingness. What you apparently are calling nothing I would have to call something. That Something is as stated above “space is filled with vacuum fluctuations, virtual particle-antiparticle pairs”. That is something not nothing. Can you tell me what causes the cause of this effect?
2. The net result of the Casimir effect appears to be nothing, they “form out of nothing and then vanish back into nothing an instant later.”. How does this account for the formation of anything eternal or anything else for that matter? Something that self anialates in an instant is really the same as nothing happening or being created at all. What lasting outcome is there? How do we get to a physical universe from here? How does this help explain anything about the existance of this material universe?
3. You seem to be a little free with your use of the word “Absolutely…” , as if there is no alternative or possibility of error. I am sure you do not really intend that, but there it is, just thought I’d mention it.
Thank you for your thoughtful consideration!
