That's worth watching, but the problem is that "nothing" is tricky to define. I'm using the word to mean no mere thing, as in something that's not bound by any simplifying human conception. In other words, it's Kant's noumenon, the thing in itself. Thus, "nothing" magically becomes something, as in the unknowable cosmic whole. And indeed I identify it with God, via pantheism, but not with the super-something, personal deity that flatters most Western religious folks.
