In the author interview (https://forums.onlinebookclub.org/viewt ... p?t=479734), the author encourages readers to grapple with the question, "Why is there something rather than nothing." What is your answer to this question? Why does the universe exist? What started it and why?

The material world as a concept of 'divine punishment' makes sense when there are no suitable other reasons. But this universe, as cosmologists claim, is too big to consider it may be the only reason as to why. The majority of the universe exists without interrupting or aiding us which proves there might be a reason why Earth and its occupants are not the central reason of a grand scheme. When researchers find a plausible connection to it all, we might explore the inevitable spiritual meaning of why anything exists and eventually why we are.

There is something because God said let there be light and there was light, and the morning and the evening were the first day, and he saw that it was good. God wished for there to be something in the place of nothing. So here we are by his divine design.

Why Is There something Rather than nothing? good question! It is rather better than something be there than emptiness or nothing. As a quote says" half a loaf is better than nothing". Sometimes it is good even to have a little than nothing, which can be put to good use to satisfy a huge need. I am therefore reminded of a miracle Jesus performed with a little meal of two fish and five loaves, which ended up feeding a multitude.There was something offered here rather than nothing.

This is a very thought-provoking question, and I would not like to answer it from a religious point of view. I would rather say there is something because if there must be a universe to exist, there must be something it contains, which includes us all and other living and non-living things. Nature sprouts the universe and us all.

Universe created through a big bang as science say ..firstthere was nothing then boom...a explosion occurs with. Emense energy and universe came into existence

According to the book, the loving and eternal creator intended the universe to give love and relational existence to human beings.

Trying to consider all possibilities, I think there is “something rather than nothing”, because of scientific happenings and also because of God or a Universal Energy. I think that God or a Universal Energy, a creator, the Divine, etc put the scientific happenings into motion. But there a lot of arguments as to the further reason why the start in the first place.

A thought provoking question indeed, I do believe in God so my answer may be slightly biased when I answer that it is by his will. A longer answer would be that it is by design, it makes much more sense from a metaphysical standpoint that there is something than if there were nothing. Even the absence of something could still be considered something.
