95. Fat Zero

Fat Zero

From my perspective, God is equally happy to count in small numbers as well as large.
We have evidence of his satisfaction in 1s and 2s as much as in billions and trillions.
Happy to save 2 ants in the ark or have trillions of kilometres between stars.

I wonder does that number system include zeros.
How happy is God to count the number of things in zeros?
Is zero a number?
Does zero exist?

So is there an existence of things which exist as zero, or nothingness?
Is there a real non-reality?
What is zero, and what is nothing?
Is it both nothing and infinity?
Because the concept of infinity encompasses numbers from zero to forever, then zero is as real as 1 or 2.
Does that then encompass the Christian value of Hope?
Hope would be defined as something waiting to happen but which has not yet happened, which is therefore a zero..a pregnant pause, a big fat nothing: we have the concept, I just feel no one recognises nothing as a value.
But when I say no-one, do I mean zero people waiting on nothing to happen at a point in time which never existed to be observed by nobody and therefore not existing?
Possibly.
And possibly you could word it better…any
