The answer is no.

less is more

Nothing is something because if something is nothing while nothing is not something, then something may be nothing but on the other hand, if its really nothing but not something, it cannot be nothing = something.

i consider myself a philosopher too
How much wood, could a woodchuck chuck, if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

What's the timeframe?

Is something nothing?

z(r)=sqrt(R3 / 2M) [sqrt(1 - (1 - (2M / R)))] + sqrt(8M (r - 2M)) - sqrt(8m (R - 2M)) for r >= R

lol?

Then explain how the 'Big Bang' came about.
If there was nothing before the Big Bang as scientists say then the Big Bang could not have happened. Therefore there something=nothing and nothing=something
Within a state of nothingness there is always something, there can never be nothing there always has to be something.
-
There is no "before" the Big Bang.

There is no "before" the Big Bang.
There had to have been something otherwise it would not have happened.
You cannot suddenly have creation without something causing it. Therefore there was a before but we just don't what it was. Scientists call it 'nothing' but that nothing was something.

There was never a pre-existing emptiness into which our universe exploded. There is just this timeless mathematical object, time existing within it; and the object has a natural boundary at the Big Bang. You cannot ask "When did this mathematical object come into existence?" because there is no t outside it.

If time existed within it then it's not nothingness. Time is something therefore this nothingess or timeless mathematical object still occupied your state of emptiness

Yes, after the Big Bang.

The Big Donkey farted and that was the Big Bang.

Nothing is something and something is nothing :D
Problem solved now? :P

Good then that something is not nothing.
Is something nothing?
No.

No, what you said is wrong.

This is irrelevant for deciding whether nothing is something. And you are right, that there can be never nothing, because "to be" implies existence, which implies "something". However, the "thing" in nothing is actually referring to the context in which nothing is used, so if somebody says "i did nothing", it means he did not do any action that could have affected the case in question, or if somebody says "there is nothing inside", it means that the thing he was looking for is not inside.
Pure nothingness exists only as a concept, and it isn't terribly useful, because other than a name, it has obviously no properties.

Arguing over ill-defined words. How philosophical.

Argue about this instead:
"I think, therefore I am"
This true or not?

The issue resides in what you mean by each word in that sentence except "therefore".

Free will of what ? We are all biological robots, following a very intricate "program". It doesn't mean we don't make any decisions, it means our decision process can be replicated and simulated. Even shorter : we have no souls.

Because to the best of my knowledge, it's how it's done in French, it's how I learned it, and it's a hell of a lot more pleasing to the eye.

Nothing is something if nothing other than a concept. Without it we would not have modern mathematics.

No, that's an explanation of nothing, it isn't nothing itself. The funny thing is, you can't even talk about nothing, because you don't talk, then. Which is why we aren't discussing nothing itself, but comparing it to things. Which also doesn't make sense, of course, but some people in here seem to disagree.
-
The idea of nothing is something because it is an idea. However, nothing itself is not an idea because an idea is not nothing. We only think through things that our brains are capable of understanding. When you use "zero" or write "0" in arithmetics, it's just a symbol you are writing, it's not even the concept of zero and it's certainly not nothing. You could do arithmetics only though writing symbols and applying equivalence rules without understanding numeric values. It happens that most of us understand what is in common between two dogs and two apples so we do understand numbers and we have associated symbols that are now extremely familiar to them. But mathematical operations are defined over the symbols, not the meanings. Exactly like how our modes of thinking operate over the concepts and not the things, which is the reason why it is so tempting to consider nothing and the idea of nothing to be the same. By the way I love making postmodern structuralist fanboi cringe.

nothing is something but something is not nothing.
strawberries and bananas are fruits. But a strawberry is not an banana.
money and gold are valueable. However money is not gold. But gold is money.
Hope this helped ^^

it's good you bolded and underlined "not" or i might have thought something is nothing

What happens if Pinocchio says "my nose will grow now"?

His nose grows.

It depends whether he thinks it is going to happen or not.
Because lying requires that you know you are stating something that is not true.

It didn't help, because it's wrong. Nothing is not something.
-
Nothing is
Yeah, thats right.
-
Nothing is the notion of lacking something, therefore nothing is nothing.

Before the big bang came the big foreplay.
