  1. I’m not attempting to justify a foregone conclusion. Because God appears to me as Nothing. God is to me the same of Truth. In fact, there is not Truth: nothing is absolutely true. So, I can not pray God, because it’s Nothing. It is for this reason of that it is so important to me my faith in God. My aim is to show how tricky it to say: “It exists”. Matter and vacuum are to me just concepts, nothing to do with true “existence”. Truly we can think that other concepts, like energy and space, will match existence? That is, even if I’d start over, would be the question about physical world existence solved? Saying that “matter is simply energy in it's cohesive state” it seems meaning that matter does not exist, because what really exists it’s energy. But so we put ahead the problem of existence without solving it. Furthermore, does energy make sense without matter? I do not have defined God. I only said that He has to be true. Even if I don’t know what “true” really means. I don’t know because I don’t master the meaning of Existence. Always mine it’s the responsibility of my choices, and... never I’m sure about Good or Evil. Always I have to do an act of faith in Good. God (or Truth, or Good, or Justice because all them are the same) appears to me as Nothing. Is only a question of my faith if that Nothing is the source of infinite possibilities rather than the absolute Nothing.
