Darkness?

Yes. It's the absence of light.

Hi, ROLCAM!

That would also depend on what you define darkness as being. What's your definition, please?

Thanks!

I would argue strongly that darkness does not exist.
However I would also argue that light exists.
I would concede that darkness is the absence of light

For answering your question , the definition is as follows:-

Darkness, noun.
1. the quality or state of being dark.
Ex. A voice in the darkness, a knock at the door (Longfellow).
(SYN) dimness, duskiness.
2. (Figurative.) gloom; sorrow or trouble.
3. (Figurative.) wickedness; evil. Ex. Oftentimes, to win us to our harm, The instruments of darkness tell us truths (Shakespeare).
4. (Figurative.) obscurity; concealment; secrecy.
5. (Figurative.) blindness; ignorance.

So, which one of the definitions is the one that is in question here, ROLCAM?

Thanks!
