We can both agree on that. -Your argument "Nothingness must surround God and the universe" turns nonexistence into an object. We can freely interchange the pink Dragon with "void," "nothing", and "nonexistence." Explain to me how "nonexistence" can "surround" something, without being interchangeable with Sagan's Pink Dragon.
