Mormonism has always seen there as being no gap. The theology of creation ex nihilo poses an absolute ontological gap between God and creation. Although the Sermon in the Grove and parts of Abraham 3 also are frequently tied to the doctrine. It primarily comes out of the King Follet Discourse and D&C 93:29. To your specific question, the main argument against creation ex nihilo are that either our fundamental soul or at least the stuff out of which it is made is uncreated and thus co-eternal with God. I see it as a huge strength and makes our religion more like science. I know some see that as horrible and makes religion untrustworthy. I think one unique aspect of Mormon theology is that given our view of continuing revelation and fallibilism that anything is potentially up for revision. (2) What is the basis of this "Mormon cosmology," and is it really doctrine?
