Energy creation/destruction

If energy can't be created or destroyed does that mean the universe has always existed and always will?

If not, how could it have began if energy can't be created? How could it end if energy can't be destroyed?

Re: Energy creation/destruction

As I see it, Creation is somehow like creating two opposing equal things from nothing. Anytime they will be combined they return back to nothing.
It is like charging the electrodes of a capacitor. When one electrode is charged with a positive charge, the other will be charged automatically with a negative charge of equal amount. Combining/shorting the two electrodes, the capacitor will return back to its inert/idle state.


Every living thing has no choice but to execute its pre-programmed instructions embedded in it (known as instincts).
But only a human may have the freedom and ability to oppose his natural robotic nature.
But, by opposing it, such a human becomes no more of this world.

Re: Energy creation/destruction

Thanks, KerimF

When you say, 'Creation is somehow like creating two opposing equal things from nothing,' what do you mean by 'nothing'?

I remember Lawrence Krauss brought out his book, 'A Universe From Nothing,' but when he promoted the book I got the impression he meant a special

physicist's kind of 'nothing'. He would say things like, 'nothing weighs something', and talk of virtual particles etc.

Nothing is nothing smile
It is like I was nothing before I was forced to exist by a certain Will.
I said 'I was forced' because I had no will while I was nothing smile
