1) On Existence
A thought has recently come to my mind, that our universe is subject to laws. Humans follow a set of laws also, but the two that most trouble me are as follows: 1: The philosophical "Cogito ergo sum," the Greco-Roman "I think, therefore I am" and 2: The scientific "Something cannot come from nothing." Both cannot be simaltaneously true, as the first assumes existence, the other (when extrapolated), nonexistence. Now, as true science bases itself on observable phenomena, the first idea must be the true one. This state of existence must have a source however, which I will discuss in my next note.
