F.Y.I. People can't know nothing.

It's true. People cannot comprehend nothing. When people think of nothing they generally imagine a sheet of black (or other random shape) which is wrong. Nothing is an absence of anything. It has no colour. However most people simply cannot realise what it is. Space, for example isn't nothing. It is something. People use nothing as a loose term for the lack of something when it should properly be used to show the absence of everything including itsself. This is why people can't comprehend it. Nothing is such a complex idea in its entirity, as another example. Nothing is something, so therefore something is nothing. But nothing is an absence of everything which therefore means that it isn't something. But nothing still appears to be an object no matter how hard we try to imagine it as anything else.  Even I, writing this post cannot comprehend such an immense and complex nothing. So much complexity. So little time.
