    "Everything" includes both positive and negative......

    Amazing!
    Lock it in a dark closet. It'll be tortured (and alone without drugs or weapons) till the end of time. That's where ghosts come from, don't you know....

    That would explain the BB and FTL expansion. Mops were not yet invented at that time..

    If God wants only positive things to happen, but bad things happen instead, then by definition he is not omnipotent.

    God wants everything. That's why we have it; because he gave it to us. ☺

    ??? "Maximally" is not a noun.

    How can you include negativity if it doesn't exist?

    We can because it does exist. Negative potential. It's necessary for universal mathematics to work.
    Action/reaction, positive/negative, matter/antimatter, the list goes on.

    nothing.

    Gravity is just a very low energy expression of energy . ( energy defined as , fundamentally , magnetic and electric , with speed and acceleration )

    And it has no opposite.

    Gravity has an opposite

    Distance

    Distance is not the opposite of gravity.

    Unrelated statements. If anything, gravity is the opposite of energy, or the opposite of attraction is repulsion.

    Dark matter v Dark energy? Matter v anti-matter? Particle v anti-particle?

    However, that was not the original proposition, which was; the negative part of everything is nothing". IMO, that is an asymmetrical statement.
    Clearly, the opposite part of negativity in everything is positivity. That is how it is defined, no?

    In a magnet, the opposite of a negative pole would be the positive pole, no?

    IMO, there is never nothing. There is always potential; "That which may become reality".
    Which is a positive asset and is balanced by those things which transform from reality back into potential.

    IMO, conservation of energy includes the conservation of all things that are energetic.

    and the question if there ever was absolutely nothing is addressed below.

    You misunderstand.
    I didn't say the opposite of gravity is nothing.
    I said there is nothing that is the opposite if gravity.

    i.e. Despite the claim being made, not all things in nature have opposing counterparts.

    But there is no repulsive force that opposes gravity.

    But once you understand gravity , you can create not a force so much , but a field . A field that overrides the fields of the gravity of this planet ( not hard to do I would think ) , and further out .

    By understanding gravity, I can create a field?

    Yes

    Nature gives us the tools to understand and create .
