I don't think it's possible to disprove either concept.

Well, the quantum foam idea allows that, but the existence of such
matter doesn't last long.  I think that disproves that durable matter
can come from nothing.

Frankly, I tend to disbelieve in the concept of spacetime.

I think points are nonexistent.  They are a mental invention to express
geometrical concepts, just like numbers were invented to express
mathematical
concepts.

So you agree that your idea is not physics?  Hmmm.

Well, I am.
