An exceedingly simple argument for idealism

1.   Something is

2.   Nothing is not

3.   Something cannot come from nothing

  (a)  A nothing that includes the potenial for something is not nothing

4.   Therefore something has primacy

5.   Something is only ever known or experienced

6.   Anything not known or experienced can only ever be an inference

  (a)  Even an inference is only known or experienced

7.   Therefore knowing or experiencing has primacy
