    Carrier claims

    literally anything

    can pop out of absolutely nothing at all uncaused because there are no rules in nothing to stop it.

    That’s it.  That is his claim.  It is obvious because he says it over and over again in a variety of posts on his own blog as well as in his videoed talks.”

    So Carrier makes this response, “If there was truly nothing, the absence of everything, there wouldn’t also be the law “ex nihilo, nihil fit” (out of nothing, nothing comes).

    So

    something

    can come from nothing. There is nothing stopping nothing from creating something.

    Saying “something” is possible is rather different from saying “literally anything” – Why are you implying they are the same thing?
