I'm afraid I have to take more of the blame than Hawking for the return of this subject to this forum. Big grovelling apology! (insincere, of course). I suppose I have a hang up about the something/nothing issue, as I do about the finite/infinite question.

Actually, there was an “ulterior” motive for posting this and “Is the multiverse a God substitute?” which I shall return to later.

There never was nothing.
