On the Extracosmic Void

Reading a book on the void of space and the topic of nothing brings me to consider the topic that Aristotle amongst other considered so long ago. Not that I will do so as well or completely-just a few ideas to write down.

Is it an extracosmic void with neutral pressure rather than a negative vacuum pressure that serves to let the positive pressure of the matter of the Universe expand at increasing pace? Does the extracosmic void beyond the edge of the universe (or an infinite garden of universes connected in some way) continue on without boundaries forever? That idea of pure nothingness is one of the most challenging ideas of all to ponder.

I think it a better idea to consider God as creating matter, energy and nothing as well within his own field of being. It seems more reasonable for me to think that God actually occupies all space infinitely and creates the space-time and voids for universes as willed rather than to believe that God exists separately from an independent primordial nothingness into which he ordered a Universe to exist.

In the beginning the deep was without form and void-yet it was God's form and void existing like a blank canvas on which to fill in the 4 dimensional art of The Creation.

Albert Camus expressed one perspective of the existential paradox in his book 'The Stranger'. At one point in the story the stranger was on a beach alone and philosophically experienced nausea that anything existed at all-it is a difficult thing to think about deeply.

Sartre may have taken that literary experience as the title of his first philosophical fiction book 'Nausea'. As an associate professor of philosophy in La Havre before the 2nd world war he had some time to write. He did not write about God in generally as a theological concept of everything existing-possibly a more difficult realization even than Camus', instead he wrote about subjective experience of being in particular; a common philosophical approach instead of a theoretical speculation with an Aquinian or metaphysical style. We too may leave off from the difficult, even mystical contemplation of God as the sole existing reality transcendently and consider the more local subject of this particular universe, potential infinite universes and any causality we might think of regarding physics and empty space.

If there is an infinite number of Universes it isn't impossible that they all comprise some kind of a structure. As quarks, sub-atomic particles, atoms, elements, dust, planets, stars and galaxies exist, and as the observable universe exists, the entire universe may exist as a part of a larger structure. It may function like a cell in a body of a far more complex being...or not. Even so it is not necessary that an infinite number of universes existing in a disordered matrix of accidental and phenomenal causality. There may be quite a number of physical channels of communication structured meta-universally. The neutral void may continually affect the actualizing history of those compositions of mass.
