Nothing sounds like the perfect empty space fill in with things.

Yes, and that’s all that’s happening. There’s some talking about silence by filling it up with words. 
 

It’s all much a do about nothing, in my humble opinion.

What is Nothing?

How is nothing ever to be known?

Is nothing a thing which can be understood?

Silence is best understood in the experience of it.

They who open their mouth to explain silence, know none of it.

They cannot know of it because they are it.

Even nothing is something.

 

How is something ever to be known. 
 

Is something a thing to be understood.

Is nothing well understood if still it is found amongst your bag of things?

How does a relatively empty space differ from nothing?

Is there a way to knowing God by just simply being present in this already immediate silent presence?

...can God be simply known without even speaking a word or making a sound about this knowing?

You got it ;}

Critical thinking is necessary. Nuanced perspective is mandatory.

The ability to see from alternative interpretations & perspectives will lead you on your way.

All I can say is something is known and that known knows nothing.
