We have a universe of something rather than nothing because the state of "nothing" is UNSTABLE. For the details read "The Self-Generating Universe". It will explain it all.

I guess a philosophical way of looking at nothing is that there must be something looking at the nothing for the nothing to be recognised as nothing, so it must be something - at least to the sensor anyway. Is this a I think therefore I am or it is all an illusion this reality we seek? There cannot be nothing when to be a no thing is to be something that is able to be described. Therefore there must be something describing the nothing and again we're back to a something experiencing the nothing. In spiritual sense it can be argued that to believe in God the nothing is something and the something is nothing for God is in the eye of the beholder who must be a something to consider that there is nothing. So when is something nothing? The Universe is unstable because if it wasn't we wouldn't be here. Does this mean that the Universe is a something or a nothing. My guess is Who knows? I certainly don't and no matter how much science is applied to the subject it will always remain a matter for your own experience to determine.
You have a lovely thoughtful website and I'd be interested in your thoughts on the matter of change if you have a moment.

The article is worth reading, I like it very much. I will keep your new articles.
