Immateriality: The Fallacy of Magical Nothing!

      Are you curious about the claims to the immaterial world, or confused to the concept of immateriality? What exactly are Immaterialists trying to suggest? Well..., Here I am going to discuss why Immateriality is impossible. We can do this by addressing it in regards to capacity, this to which is also related to information theory, or such things as the argument of immaterial GOD's that are argued to have no composition, parts, or substance.

We can first address the following articles:

* Cosmological Reasons Why GOD doesn't exist: Pantheism

* Information: The Material Physical Cause of Causation

---

Capacity and Volume and why a GOD can not exist outside of either:

In understanding capacity, things we can rationally answer that not a thing could likely exist outside the capacity to exist, or the physical capacity in we see and understand is necessary to sustain our very presence here, the here or where we are. But then we have those who seemingly will say something can. How can this be we ask ourselves, how can we exist without substance of value, or a place to exist in? When we ponder this the rational mind can only comprehend that this would be like trying to say something can exist in a negative or no capacity. No rational mind would go on not realizing that zero in the value of capacity can not have the capacity to contain and sustain our existence, information, or anything what-so-ever. Immateriality becomes a The Fallacy of Magical Nothing. For a theist this kind of argument surely will not shake their thundering strength of faith.. However, for those who might try to understand, try and comprehend rationally, you will begin to see how all of this pertains to why in science, capacity, volume, and energy are infinite, omnipresent, and simply rational. Energy being the substance of the volume and the capacity of the volume we see it for what it is, and not what we want it to be. So what is capacity and volume? Why is there energy when we always thought there to be nothing between the empty spaces of our reality? Well, you can begin here:

* Why there is infinite Ground State energy:

* Understanding Capacity and Volume:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrying_capacity
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacity_utilization
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Channel_capacity
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume

  And when you are done there, we can try to understand infinite nature of our Universe. However, when trying to understand infinity in these terms of capacity, volume, and the energy of, we don't do it by trying to imagine the size, or amount of. We understand it by understanding why there are no boundaries to capacity, and volume, or why there can never be literally zero temperature in our understanding of thermodynamics... The boundaries, should they be argued for, could only be represented as literal nothing in the most literal context possible. So why are these boundaries impossible to exist? How can we conclude to know? Now we can never say with 100% certainty since no scientific test we could ever conduct will prove the existence of literal nothing. but we can most certainly make quite a fair assumption by trying to understand nothing and why it isn't anything at all.

1) Literal nothing can not be a person, place, substance, or thing. It can not literally ever exist..

2) Nothing can not also contain anything.. Hence, our universe can not be contained within a noting container, or box if you will. Existence can not exist within nothing.. Nothing has no value, no capacity, or volume. It's what can be said as utter irrelevance, or non-existent.
So that means there can never exist literally zero information, energy, volume, or capacity. Here it is likely that no phenomenon could exist without material physicality. Immateriality is thus just a logical fallacy. So this poses a huge problem for those who believe in the GOD concept of this nature, immaterialists, or even spiritualists to whom may believe in immateriality. For something to exist, as at least an entity/thing of sorts, it will have to have the capacity to actually exist!..

     I can also address an interesting thing about the 2nd law of thermodynamics here.. Closed systems can only exist within open systems since literal nothing can not have the capacity to contain or sustain a system, or anything for that matter. Kind of like your oven to which exists within your kitchen. The volume within the oven may be a closed system or volume, but it exists within an over all open system or volume. So even if our Universe was a closed system, it wouldn't matter, because it could for example, be a bubble amongst an infinite number of other bubbles.. However, your Universe is not a closed system, it's a type of open system that has been measured to be flat with just a 2% margin of error... Here maximum entropy can be reached simply by expansion alone. The expansion will likely lead to heat death, or possibly even result in the ripping apart of atoms. Kind of like a bubble that expands and pops when it reaches it's maximum threshold, or limits of integrity. :)

However, I would like to post a rather nice video that somewhat addresses this very issue:




     So when you see a theist state that their GOD is immaterial, has no composition, or parts..., you can giggle at the very idea of a "Nothing GOD". You can smile with a rational comprehending mind when you see spiritualists argue unwittingly the nothing world, or the nothing domain. However, this does not mean the real can not support a more real version of those ideas, or philosophies. There may be a creator of sorts to our Universe, or be a consciousness beyond the biological container. These things we do not know, but are not necessarily impossible either. We do know that there will be limits to our imagined ideas, beliefs, thoughts, or concepts. For them to exist they must have at least the capacity to do so.
