    There is no dark without light. No silence without sound. No nothing without something.

        These concepts are each defined in relation to something else. Without that something else these concepts are meaningless, absurd, and do not exist.

          But that assumption, of how reality works, is based on the premise that reality is, has always been, and can only work that way. Maybe opposites coexist in some other concept of reality?

            There are logical impossibilities, for example in no universe does 0 = 1, and the same is true for these concepts.

              Your example is wrong even in our universe lol. In the trivial ring (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero_ring ), 0=1 is true.

              What you are probably imagining when talking about 0 and 1 are their representatives in the “integer ring” or maybe the ring of real numbers. Both are simply definitions made by humans and in no way universal truths.

              The fact that time is relative disproves this already. Our understanding is limited by our ability to perceive.

            I did and then of course explained that the result is more than false, it’s literally impossible.

              There is dark without light. Sound without silence. Nothing without something.

              These are all true sentences.

                  English is probably not your first language, but still, this should be pretty clear to anyone with a basic understanding of it. Reread the sentences

                    Lol, imagine arguing on the internet with someone who doesn’t even understand words!
