Big Bloom Theory.

Since I discovered the molecular biology and biochemistry of Robert Melamede and the thermodynamics of Ilya Prigogine in 2010 on which Melamede's teaching is based, I could no longer hold on to the theory of a bang for the origin of the universe. It might be suitable for the destruction of it, but the creation of time and space has to be a more gentle movement. In physics, a bang in slow motion is such a movement. The term bloom refers to the existence of life in the universe, a unique and complex phenomenon that might only have been created on earth. By choosing this name for the theory based on Georges LemaÎtre's hypotheses and those of others, both the origin of the universe and the existence of life are inevitably related. By disposing of the 20th century explosion in the name of the theory, an improved world has a better chance of surviving.
