nothing sacred?

Is nothing in fact sacred, or is that just people's way of asking whether there isn't anything that's sacred?

Well, what is?

Some would say life is sacred; I'm thinking especially here of anti-abortionists, but somehow I doubt that they're all vegetarians. I tend to think that life is arbitrary; it arose out of certain conditions conducive to its happening. And it inevitably ends. What could be more arbitrary than that? We live, then we return to Nothing.

Is Nothing sacred? It isn't arbitrary, that's for sure: it just is.

Or isn't, depending on how you want to look at it.
