Why is there nothing rather than something?

[Knowledge]

Why are the lights on? Why stuff is happening on any level at all?

Why not?

Why do you think something is happening? How is everything not merely nothing? 

[Carl-Richard]

It's impossible for it not to be so.

God did it.  Abra kadabra stuff. 

  You've been told that since you were a child.. Why you don't want to get it?

Pure infinite potential includes everything and nothing. Not- pure infinite potential would mean something outside reality is limiting reality, a logical contradiction meaning the limiter would not be real. That’s the “answer” but really it’s beyond words.

Define 'something' and /or 'nothing'...

Stuff is not happening.

This question is confusing.

Something and Nothing are existing at the same time. The somethings that you are experiencing is actually made of nothing. Nothing appears as something, but its essence is nothing. 

The problem is thinking that something has to be made of something, and nothing cannot be made of something.

There is something. And it is nothing.
