Is Nothing Something: A Philosophical Question from Someone Who Knows Little About Philosophy

Here's how I think it:

Nothing is something, because not only is it the concept invented by mankind to explain the state of the absence of everything, but it is also a word in the English language, and hence a set of organized sounds, syllables, and letters that human beings understand to describe the state of the absence of everything.

Consequently, when you find nothing in the drawer, you actually find something, because nothing is something. By the same reasoning, if you know nothing, you must know something; and if you know everything, you must also know nothing.

Fact or fallacy? You make the call.
