Now the refutation of production from other, that is the general principle.
after a brief refutation on the assertion of production from partless particles.
(9.126ab) The assertion that the world and living beings are produced from permanent partless particles
Has already been refuted.
Modern science claims everything arose from The Big Bang. The Big Bang essentially started with a partless particle. Much of modern physics is also about trying to identify partless particles that are the basis appan which reality is constructed. Belief in the fiction of partless particles is quite widespread in modern society.
But production from partlets particles is actually impossible. As described extensively in earlier posts, the basic argument as to why partless particles cannot create anything relates to the problem of contact. Does a partless particle come into contact with that which it supposedly produces? If what is produced comes from the partless particle then it implies part of the partless particle somehow separates off from the partless particle, at which point it would not be partless since it has part of it that can separate off. If one partless particle comes into contact with another partless particle, then it implies there is part of that particle that is in contact with another partless particle. If there is part of the partless particle that is in contact with part of another partless particle, that implies there is part of the partless particle that is not in contact with the other partless particle, at which point the partless particle is no longer partless. If there is not only one part of the partless particle in contact with another part of a partless particle, it implies that the two partless particles are in fact one in the same, at which point what sense is there in talking about two different partless particles coming into relationship with one another? When we think even superficially about this, it is quite absurd.
