         The human genotype represents 250 million years of biological evolution. However, the contemporary phenotype is manifesting an insidious desecration in terms of optimizing its homeostasis. The 21^st century is a pejorative execution of genetic remodeling where the phenotype is exuding a non-homeostatic physiology as well as sub-optimal cortical machinations. Physiological malaise has been inordinately escalated in the preceding 40 years; and higher cortical aesthetics has become an abysmal dream. For example, the incidence of cancer has increased over 37% in the preceding 15 years. D. Max Parkins has stated the following regarding the increase in neoplasia: "The most recent estimate, that for 1990,4 suggests a total of 8.1 million new cases, divided almost exactly between developed and developing countries. This represents an increase of about 37% since our first estimates 15 years ago for 1975, a rate of growth (2.1% per year) that is faster than that of the world population (1.7% per year)."¹ Sublime sentient revelry has plummeted into a nonsensical labyrinth of post-modernism. Arthur Rimbaud symbolism in his 19^th century work entitled Season in Hell cannot typify the scurrilous engulfment of current ratiocination or the absurdity of the delirium of consciousness that is beyond Genet’s The Balcony.²

Human consciousness displays now a pageant more comedic than Shakespeare’s farcical dumb shows. Is this culturally contrived dysregulation of the central nervous system’s executive circuitry a volitional imperative or is it a serendipitous meandering where humans can become more concordant with their electronic gadgetry related to a future cultural landscape of artificial intelligence? The contemporary phenotype is wretchedly overweight, uncoordinated, lethargic, and plagued with psychiatric morbidities.^{3, 4} The executive activities of this moribund phenotype mimic the conceptual ruminations of an average junior high student. This thesis’s looking glass of reality is fumed by a phantasmagoria of mirages. Karl Marx in his Das Kapital realized that the industrial revolution was not necessarily a progression in terms of human quality of life, but more of a venomous pathogenesis which ravages the actual post-translational activities of all the body’s cell lineages. This philosopher’s vision has become an invidious reality. There are not any exquisite reviews which have been written explicating how the quest for excessive financial opulence is engendering aberrant cortical dysregulation. Marx was the only philosopher whose behest was cautionary regarding the deleterious synergy between the industrial revolution and capitalism. Marx’s philosophical vision is an impossibility in the 21^st century. The idealism of communism has been abnegated by the global economic imperative defined by Machiavelli in his work entitled “The Prince”. ^{5, 6}

The savage tyranny of global capitalism is a kind of mental feudalism where the human entity is ruinously psychologically enslaved or neurologically remodeled for excessive consumerism. Obesity is a necessary requisite which is reflective of the contemporary human’s cortical aberrant mental symmetry in order to be purblind ostensible consumers to procure with invidious aberrance artifices, which have no heuristic merit to the body’s endogenous hedonics. The 19^th century German and British Romantics were privy to the perniciousness of the blending of capitalism and the industrial revolution. These luminous visionaries did not comprehend how this cultural phenomenon would be vitriolic to the body’s physiology.

Charles Darwin likewise was not cognizant as to how the environment either induces robustness in the genotype or is squalidly deleterious to the phenotype. There are not any scientific reviews which denote how current environmental changes directly affect the pathogenicity of the overall human organism’s physiological remodeling. The seething malaise of human machinations is certainly more profound than enigmatic ideologies or theosophies; and it involves billions of axons and dendritic connections which have created nefarious super circuits that modulate the human species’ behavioral pejorative action sequences.

Three-hundred years ago, P.V. Shelley wrote that: “measure the circumference and sound the depths of human nature with a comprehensive and all-penetrating spirit…”⁷ Murray Krieger states the following: “it develops, as in the works of Becket or Camus forms that are anti-forms.”⁸ Why has human consciousness become so retrograde from the sublime intelligence characterized by the Greeks, Romans, and the Renaissance? The foibles of perception is most comedic in post-modernism where the inane becomes a pageant of consciousness beyond what Krieger discerns as the anti-forms or where the portal of apprehension has become the citadel of dismay to human consciousness. What is so compelling regarding our environmental milieu which is causing cortical pathways to become so aberrantly remodeled where the inspiration of mental quintessence cannot be apprehended? Shakespeare writes: “to the celestial and my soul’s idol, the most beautified ophelia”⁹ Shelley purports that the marvelment of seething consciousness or in his rhetoric “hierophants of an unapprehended inspiration” are blighted from higher actualization in the squalid mental landscape of the 21^st century. The quagmire of debase monolithic perception engulfs the skewed cortical symmetry of the human phenotype. Social evolution is the physic of this invidious diminution of the human genotype.

The contemporary university education has become ruefully mitigated where literature and philosophy or the sublimity of perception is replaced by puerile conception or the sociology of vacuousness. Krieger espoused 50 years ago that “literature recoils from the withering authority of a new Apollo but does surrender itself wholly to the frenzy of Dionysus.”¹⁰ Art is reflective of human consciousness or the sagacious passion of perception. Currently, undergraduates would not comprehend the body’s Dionysian Revelry or the enfetterment within the endless ruminations of Apollonian consciousness. Dr. Steven Mingus at a recent stem cell conference 2015 in San Francisco purported that the debilitating aesthetics of contemporary culture can be viewed as a degenerative pathogenesis enabling the compromised human phenotype to more readily able to emerge with technological algorithms or artificial intelligence.

There have been many scientific films which speculate that human physiology will be merging in the ensuing decades with artificial intelligent technologies where endogenous implants will be interactive with organ physiology; and exogenous complex strategies will be utilized to modulate cortical executive function. Human evolution will engender phenotypes which are adaptive to the dominance of these enigmatic technologies. These sophisticated electronic protocols are necessary to control the escalation of the global human population.

Christian Roberts et. al 2009 found an overwhelming correlation between BMI and the lack of fitness in children, which translated into lower test scores in math, reading, and language. He writes the following: “Students whose mile run/walk times exceeded California Fitnessgram standards or whose BMI exceeded Centers for Disease Control sex- and age-specific body weight standards scored lower on California standardized math, reading, and language tests than students with desirable BMI status or fitness level.”¹¹ Children and adults are excessively disinclined to lose weight and exercise; and have been modulated to inordinately consume which appears to dominate their conscious volition.

Recently Peter Gray has pointed out that there is an escalation in psychopathology as a function of a deficiency in the play patterns of children. There is a predominant disinclination for children to engage in artistic play as they now prefer to be involved in electronic technologies. Peter Gray states the following pertaining to the relationship between lack of play and the overexpression of various kinds of psychopathology: “Play, especially social play with other children, serves a variety of developmental functions, all of which promote children’s mental health. In the absence of such play, children fail to acquire the social and emotional skills that are essential for healthy psychological
development.”¹² Dr. Roberts further purports that “low aerobic fitness is common among youth and various ethnic groups; and low aerobic fitness level predicts performance on standard tests across ethnic groups.”¹³ This theorist does not comprehend how cultural factors are inducing epigenetic changes in executive functions in the frontal orbital cortex which is then being translated to peripheral bodily abnormalities; and this overall neurological pathogenesis is manifesting in ubiquitous pejorative changes in creativity, interior consciousness, as well as complex mental machination. Thus, children who are obese, mentally deficient, as well as disinclined to exercise represents the dysregulated phenotype who in Marxian terms, has been remodeled to be an exquisite consumer; and they are enfettered in a quagmire of social pressure engendered by the synergy of technological strategies and obdurate global capitalism.

Tomporowski 2008 has argued that robust involvement with exercise is essential for optimal executive function as well as complex mental activities. This theorist states the following: "Similar to adults, exercise facilitates children’s executive function (i.e., processes required to select, organize, and properly initiate goal-directed actions). Exercise may prove to be a simple, yet important, method of enhancing those aspects of children’s mental functioning central to cognitive development."¹⁴

Jytte Halkjær et. al 2012 has demonstrated that there is an inverse relationship between obesity and intelligence. He writes the following: “Education and intelligence, analyzed separately, were inversely related to BMI changes in both groups and to the development of obesity in the non-obese group.”¹⁵ It is likely that visceral bodily adiposity is causing the overexpression of virulent cytokines, and even exosomes which then negatively impacts cortical circuitry related to higher executive functionality and sophisticated rationalization. There is no current study which demonstrates the relationship between low intelligence engendered by chronic lethargy and obesity which is governed by monolithic ubiquitous commercialism. In hypothetical terms, errant commercialism should be escalated by lowering intelligence and obesity as well as lethargy. Stanley J. Colcombe 2004 has suggested that vigorous exercise has effects on pre-cortical and cortical functionality, and the overall epigenetic salubriousness of the central nervous system. He states that: "highly fit (Study 1) or aerobically trained (Study 2) persons show greater task-related activity in regions of the prefrontal and parietal cortices that are involved in spatial selection and inhibitory functioning, when compared with low-fit (Study 1) or nonaerobic control (Study 2) participants. […] These data suggest that increased cardiovascular fitness can affect improvements in the plasticity of the aging human brain, and may serve to reduce both biological and cognitive senescence in humans."¹⁶ There is increasing evidence that human lethargy is having consequential effects on brain neurophysiology as well as the robustness of bodily homeostatic physiology.

In Darwinian terms, the intellectually compromised lethargic obese phenotype is actually being reinforced by explicit and implicit cultural mandates. There is some likelihood that optimizing the pathogenic human phenotype would engender a global economic disaster. Thus, there are ubiquitous benefits to the global economic structure for humans to be ruefully, homeostatically dysregulated as any enhancement in this species’ physiology would be destructive to our contemporary cultural dynamics. There is a problematic synergy between the overzealous compromised human physiology and economic prosperity. Andreas Plagemann 2009 found that overfeeding in the youthful phenotype induces a greater likelihood of cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome, and other pathologies in the later stages of the life cycle. He asserts that "Our findings reveal overfeeding as an epigenetic risk factor of obesity programming and consecutive diabetic and cardiovascular disorders and diseases, in terms of the metabolic syndrome." ¹⁷ Furthermore, Sridevi Devaraj likewise has discerned that a diet high in fatty acids induces in a systemic manner mitochondrial oxidative stress; and is the etiology for many debilitating pathologies. He states the following regarding this lifestyle mediated phenomenon: “Thus, in subjects with MetS, consumption of an energy-dense, fatty meal (FFS breakfast) results in increased postprandial oxidative stress compared to a heart-healthy meal (AHA)."¹⁸

Dr. Halkjær further purports the following: “Education and intelligence, analyzed separately, were inversely related to BMI changes in both groups and to the development of obesity in the non-obese group.”¹⁹ The global culture needs only a small portion of the population to be technologically educated; and the majority of humans are being phenotypically modulated to be robust consumers who are fraught with medical comorbidities as well as diminished cortical proclivities. Rousseau in his writings on political theory asserted that the abnegation of feudalism would provide a judicious liberation to the human spirit. Unfortunately, he was not privy to the perils of capitalism or the problematic imperatives of the merchant class.

Paul Trout in 1997 stated that a college education has been dramatically “dumbed down.” A current PhD may not even be equivalent to a Bachelors of Art Degree 70 year ago. The actualization of the spirit or mental profundity is not being reinforced in our current cultural paradigm. Paul Trout writes the following: “It is bad enough that many students who enter college are underprepared, underskilled and generally dumbed down. What is worse is that more and more of them are entering college-according to UCLA’s Higher Education Research Institute – ‘increasingly disengaged from the academic experience.”²⁰ Currently college graduates entering medical schools or PhD programs in the sciences have a thorough deficiency in their understanding of world literature, philosophy, the arts, as well as the history of higher human perception. Their conceptual skills are pathetic, and post-graduate education is more reflective of sophisticated trade schools rather than the actualization of arcane human proclivities which has no utility to the global economic marketplace. Superior students are negatively reinforced to develop their innate mental puissance. Students are bifurcated into those who can enhance technology; and the majority of individuals are relegated to being pathetic consumers. Genius towards higher perception like that of Plato, Homer, Virgil, Milton, Goethe, Shakespeare, Spenser, Keats, Shelley, Nietzsche are no longer regarded as requisite factors lauded by our contemporary cultural milieu.

It is no longer necessary for humans to contemplate the metaphysics of consciousness as reflected in the following paragraph from Shakespeare’s Hamlet: “Imperious Caesar dead and turned to clay, / might stop hole to keep the wind away. / O’ that that earth which kept the world in awe / should patch a wall to expel the winter’s flaw.”²¹ These furtive issues concerning human quintessence are now replaced by the human pedantry of insipid discourse. Paul Trout asserts the following regarding the decline of intellectual prowess: “they are obliged to manage the problem in much the same way as high schools did: fewer demanding courses, lighter workloads, easier assignments and tests, and more high grades (to satisfy students, improve course evaluations, and hide the decline of standards from the public.” ²² Pamela Ansburg 2001 has purported that high school students are thoroughly disinclined to be intrinsically involved with academic pursuits. She states that they expect to achieve a high grade in a course with only expending a minimum effort. Academics have become a perfunctory phenomenon where a deeper edification of consciousness has been beguiled by extrinsic peevish commercialism. Pamela Ansburg states the following: “This expectation of achievement without effort appears as early as eighth grade: adolescents have high educational and career aspirations, yet they have no intentions to behave in a manner that is consistent with achieving these goals. It is no surprise that this mismatch between expectations of success and unwillingness to work for that success continues into college.”²³

Several senior university professors have remarked that graduates in literature are unable to even capture the narrative structure of either Milton or Shakespeare as they are only accustomed to comprehending the perfunctory nature of modern fiction, especially post modernism which has been depicted to be the naturalism of sumptuous pools or a kind of knavery of nonsense. Paul Trout cites university professors for being responsible for this invidious decline in the profundity of academics. He states the following: “Few professors can afford to ignore what students say about them on evaluation forms – especially when these forms are factored into administrative decisions about hiring, retention, tenure, promotion, and merit-pay…Thus, course evaluations contribute significantly to grade inflation and a dumbed-down curriculum.”²⁴ It is evident that higher education has no intrinsic merit in contemporary American society. Huxley’s Brave New World which is a disquisition on mental totalitarian and purblind conformity depicts how the human phenotype is maliciously modulated with the intent to necessitate further adherence to imperiling technological consumerism. Humans are continuously being wretchedly dumbed down or mentally impoverished as they are hideously fraught with a bevy of comorbidities where optimal homeostasis has been replaced by overall physiological allostasis.

Henry Giroux in his 2012 text entitled “Education and the Crisis of Public Value” documents how high schools and universities have been invidiously altered to be concordant with capitalistic consciousness. This theorist purports that education is only instructing the deceptive mandates of capitalistic totalitarianism or a kind of social conditioning which virulently remodels the executive workings of the consumers’ orbital frontal cortex. Henry Giroux asserts that this vitriolic phenomenon is the volitional intent of the judicators of this Oligarchy. He writes the following: “Public school teachers are now viewed as the new ‘welfare queens,’ while academics are defined less as critical intellectuals and engaged scholars than as a new class of professional entrepreneurs.”²⁵

The crisis of obesity, lethargy, cardiovascular diseases, depression, anxiety, social isolation, anomie, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, and autoimmune diseases are most likely exacerbated by lowering this species’ intellectual prodigiousness, executive functionality, as well as a desecration of its mystical puissance. Henry Giroux is depicting the Lethe consciousness or a prosaic aberration in human perception. Theatre, films dance and music as well as television programming has been wretchedly mitigated which further reinforces this culture’s invidious inanity. The current trend in the debasement of cortical executive functionality can be depicted as adipocytes engendering inflammatory degeneration where the consumer’s consciousness becomes auspiciously concordant with this current cultural milieu. Henry Giroux writes the following regarding this macabre mental quiescence: “In both public and higher education, ignorance is not merely fostered but embraced through course content whose value is almost exclusively defined through a metaphysics in which anything that can’t be quantified is considered useless.” ²⁶ Camus and Sartre in the 20^th century purported that modern human existence is absurd and meaningless. The 20^th century sociologist Durkheim asserted that anomie is the pervasive emotionality of distraught and isolated humans sequestered from the body’s intrinsic sentience. Human consciousness has descended into a problematic quagmire where stupefied delirium engulfs all sagacious perception. The use of alcohol and other illicit and prescription drugs has severely increased in order for individuals to cope with the mendacious nature of our current cultural milieu. Rachel Libari 2008 has asserted that the use of heroin has doubled from 2007 to 2013. She writes the following: “Although the number of heroin users is lower than the number of users of other substances, rates of heroin use were higher in 2013 than they were a decade ago. Similarly, the number of people aged 12 or older who received treatment for heroin use during their most recent treatment in the past year has also risen from 277,000 people in 2002 to 526,000 people in 2013. The growing number of people getting treatment for heroin may stretch the capacity of treatment providers."²⁷

The dismal conception of the human psyche is affirmed by Henry Giroux in his analysis of teachers who are defiant intellectuals against the torpidness of our aberrant educational system. He purports the following: “Teachers who think and act reflectively, ask uncomfortable questions, challenge the scripts of official power, and promote a search for the truth while encouraging pedagogy as the practice of freedom are now viewed as suspect, if not un-American.”²⁸ The sacred Federal Reserve of the United States is not owned or even controlled by the U.S. government, but has indomitable control over the executive workings of the human central nervous system. The looking glass of our contemporary social reality is a pejorative parody or a fiendish labyrinth, which dictates and enfetters the human psyche. Our technological jungle of abhorrence is engendering moribund overall pathophysiology in the contemporary human phenotype.

Dr. Dean McHenry, the first chancellor of UC Santa Cruz authorized the creation of the PhD Program in History of Consciousness in the early 1970s with the intent to foster a scientific comprehension of arcane academic themes. This graduate program has now devolved into a tangential sociology department only focused on gender issues and ethnic contentiousness. The problematic dissolution of this graduate program represents the plummeting of intellectual prodigiousness in the 21^st century. The late Norman O. Brown, a senior professor in the History of Consciousness Programs in the 1970s, and early 80s speculated that the pervasive forces of technological capitalism is abnegating the metaphysical resplendence of higher human perception. Dr. Brown writes that “art, if its object is to undo repression, and if civilization is essentially repressive, is in this sense subversion of civilization …The neurotic mechanism involves repression and a shutting of the eye of consciousness, and a resultant psychic automatism. Art does not withdraw the eye of consciousness.” ²⁹ This professor of History of Consciousness inspired graduate students forty years ago to pursue doctorial theses explicating arcane themes pertaining to a science of mysticism. Paradoxically, the current History of Consciousness Program pejoratively parallels perfunctory subjects relevant to contemporary society or what is discerned in the popular media. Higher academic themes are pathetically obscured as arcane perception is diminished in the gyves of retrograde ratiocination. 

The intent of the History of Consciousness Program was to scientifically study in the words of Shakespeare “the poetic eye in a fine frenzy rolling, / does glance from heaven to earth, from earth to heaven, / as imagination bodies forth/ forms of things unknown.” ³⁰ This intriguing graduate program is most retrograde from its original heuristic purposes, and is now encumbered in the dismal shade of inane tangential themes sequestered from arcane epistemology. The rueful diminution of overall mental resplendence has been translated in the humanities and other academic departments in most universities.

The focus of this review is to comprehend how the factors related to social evolution has pejoratively induced the human phenotype to be wretchedly physiologically compromised where lethargy and the malaise of obesity now represents the biological dynamics of the general population. Zealous commercialism now manifests in the pathogenesis of obesity as well as the overconsumption of objects which in a symbolic manner inundates closets of homes reflective as to how fatty acids engorge adipocytes. Human perception as well as the actualization of self is becoming an impossibility as intelligence is plummeting into an insidious nadir sphere. The scientific mirror of our social evolution is revealing the genesis of a phenotype which is mentally and creatively compromised, as well as fraught with many menacing medical pathologies.

The Lethe torpidness enfetters modern consciousness as the human phenotype now represents a comedic parody of its former highly evolved genotype. 20^th century writers like Scott Fitzgerald and D.H. Lawrence depiction of how capitalistic materialism devastated human splendiferous quintessence as well as the desecration of the inner nature which then ruinously encompasses the body’s outward physiology has now achieved an epidemic of squalidness. The scurrilous intentionality of the global economy will continue its seething devourment of the body’s relevant homeostasis as well as other biological entities. The mirror of our social reality has gone beyond the absurdity of existentialism to the scourge of nihilism.

The Refutation of the Big Bang Theory

Abstract

Humans have existed for approximately 70,000 years;¹ and this particular species is genetically 97 percent identical to the chimpanzee and bonobo.² It primarily resided in its early history in social units similar to other highly evolved hominoid species. ³ The homo sapiens’ conceptual prowess and abstruse ratiocination was limited for at least 40,000 years of this species’ existence.⁴ Epistemology and theosophy was not an aspect of the homo sapiens’ conscious existence. Questions of a reflective nature, regarding human physical existence, most likely was induced from innovative epigenetic neurological changes.⁵

Neurophysiological epigenetic remodeling as a function of dietary changes, residing in larger social units, and modifications in atmospheric chemical densities most likely affected gene expression which then translated into cortical super circuit alterations.^6,7 Darwin’s theoretical paradigm regarding evolution is a prima fascia overview of how the variability of gene expression is manifested into species differentiation.⁸ However, molecular biologists can now empirically define how social factors or other environmental variables can dramatically affect behavioral as well as morphological changes in the human organism which does not represent alterations in the configurations of the 3 billion nucleotides. ^8,9 Homo sapiens have not experienced any ostensible changes in its 23,000 encoding genes in the preceding 35,000 years; and it is not known whether there have been alterations in the modulatory non-coding genes.

Cultural anthropologists have no paradigm to explicate why this hominoid species with several billion neurons beyond the chimpanzee’s limited cortex was able to modify its cultural milieu. For 40,000, years this hominoid species’ outward existence was not qualitatively distinctive from other genetically related hominoid organisms. Homo sapiens possessed only rudimentary language skills, very simple weapons, and other extraneous accouterments during most of its earthly existence. This organism demonstrated very simplistic ontological propensities. This puerile tool maker’s social existence was not very different from the chimpanzees’.

Evolutionary biologists, and anthropologists have not constructed a paradigm as to why phenotypical remodeling in terms of the structural dynamics and overall neurophysiological machinations were changed to where the cognitive acumen, and other abstract proclivities of this organism were dramatically enhanced. In a span of 20,000 years, this organism went from utilizing simple concepts, primitive tool making, and having no cosmological apprehension to a social evolution or epigenetic remodeling of cortical super circuit physiology to where there was a formidable restructuring of the homo sapiens’ cultural existence. Thus, in 30,000 years, the homo sapiens went from observing star light, and most likely not having any degree of reflective response to mathematically calculating the existence of magnanimous black holes.

There are a multitude of relevant inquiries and theories related to this hominoid’s enhanced proclivities for conceptual reflection. Currently, astrophysicists are mathematically attempting to comprehend the behavioral dynamics of the cosmos; and are not inclined to have a sentient apprehension of its experiential effulgence.¹⁰ Conversely, atavistic humans most likely prior to formulizing anthropomorphic constructs to explicate this species’ relationship to the celestial sphere were more inclined to experience a mystical coalescence with the cryptic energies of the cosmic realm.

There seems to be an intriguing inverse correlation between the body’s deeper sentient revelry with the celestial realm, and the abstruse elaborate conceptual paradigms regarding how the homo sapiens abstractly relates to the cosmic realm. Concepts like intelligence and consciousness have recently emerged as methodologies for ratiocination in terms of how this species’ abstractly relates to its enigmatic environmental milieu.¹¹ In the preceding century, scientific mathematical conceptions have come to supplant or replace anthropomorphic folklore regarding or explicating the celestial sphere. Most indigenous cultures have consecrated some kind of enigmatic mythic structure or elaborate theosophy pertaining to the etiology of the celestial realm.

These seemingly divergent theosophies revealed a similar neurological rendition or modification germane to this species’ particular epigenetic or phenotypical remodeling. Scientific instrumentation, and mathematical protocols represent changes in cortical super circuit axonal connectivity manifesting in less anthropomorphic ideologies referring to the ubiquitous nature of the cosmos. In philosophical terms, teleology was replaced by ontological paradigms¹² that are now likewise superseded by mathematical models which are not sentiently inspired or tempered by the infirmities of egocentric anthropomorphism.  

300 years ago, scholarly humans still stated that the earth was the center of the universe, and the sun revolved around this planet.¹³ There was an omnipotent progenitor who consecrated the visible universe; and that humans were thoroughly emblematic of this imperial celestial emperor. Astrophysicists within the preceding 100 years have empirically asserted that there are billions of galaxies with trillions of stars and planetary spheres. The earth is an insignificant dot in an infinite colossal sea of light and dark matter. The size of the universe is exponentially expanding as the galaxies are rapidly moving in the endless ocean of dark energy and matter.^14,15

The earth is rotating and orbiting around the sun, and the entire solar system is moving in a milky way galaxy which likewise is being propelled through the dark energy of space by gravitational dynamics. The enigmatic network of gravity appears to be impacting the conglomeration of all traditional matter.¹⁶ Currently, the nature of gravity is still shrouded by an obscure mystique, and the etiology or its affect on objects in terms of movement is not yet comprehended. The force of gravity with respect to its machinations or impact on matter is still as mysterious and not understood; and scientists do not comprehend it beyond Newton’s original theories.

Humans have for at least 30,000 years attempted in anthropomorphic terms to understand the casual manifestations of the universe or its creation.¹⁷ Recently, the highly conceptual hominoid has observed with reflective acumen the genesis of all biological organisms; and with this limited analysis have paralleled it to the matriculations of the universe itself. In the 20^th century, physicists have postulated the big bang theory to replace earlier theological paradigms contingent or based on mythic theosophical conceptions. Recently, astrophysicists have conceived that space is comprised of both dark energy and matter; and it is possible that gigantic black holes most likely existed prior to the so-called singularity of the big bang theory.¹⁸

The classical big bang theory is predicated upon the hypothesis that all the universe’s energy and matter was comprised in an area smaller than a child’s fist.¹⁹ If space existed, it did not contain any matter or energy. Theorists of this paltry paradigm were certainly not aware of either dark energy or matter which was not widely accepted by physicists at the time of the big bang theory’s postulation. There was no discussion if space was infinite or finite, nor was there any regard for an anthropomorphic progenitor or teleological analysis in the formulation of the big bang theory. In the author’s view, the big bang paradigm like other anthropomorphic constructions or teleological theories are fraught with absurd suppositions; and appears to be as fallacious as other creation myths.¹⁸

There is reasonable likelihood that dark energy and matter existed prior and during the expansion of traditional energy and matter. Recently, astrophysicists have discovered colossal black holes in the universe’s seemingly evolution. ^20,21,22 It is the author’s contention that black holes, dark energy and matter existed at the time of what has been deemed the big bang theory. Currently, there are not any sufficient models yet explicating dark energy and matter’s relationship to the universe’s traditional matter and energy machinations. All the energy amplified by the universe’s conglomeration of stars pales in comparison to dark energy.

Black holes are consuming all the light based energies at an exponential pace; and there is not any reliable hypothesis as to what is being done with this matter and energy. There is some likelihood that the universe’s magnanimous black holes are actually super sophisticated engines of recycling energy as well as the manifestations of matter; and this makes more sense than having some kind of dramatic fallacious single event for engendering the visible universe. This analysis conceptually has more veracity than does the big bang theory. ^23,24 Furthermore, space is no longer a vacuum, but rather a sea of strange subatomic particles driving enigmatic matter where constructs like time and space have no existence. Thus, the universe must be conceived as some unified network not discrete units subject to temporal and spatial analysis. Gravity itself should actually be viewed as a magnanimous network affecting the fluid dynamics of all traditional matter.

The big bang theory was not predicated on the analysis of subatomic particles that comprise what is known as the sea of space of the universe. Human physical science is based on photon driven energy as well as large molecular chemistry; and not the cryptic dark matter or energy which has been stated recently to be qualitatively distinctive from the recent science of even quantum mechanics or the subatomic machinations of traditional energy. Any future modeling regarding the etiology of the universe must be predicated on the synergy and the antipodal relationship of the gravitational gestalt of black holes, and their possible coalescence with dark energy and matter which appears now to have a stronger force on traditional light based matter than that of gravity. All macromolecular structures are in actuality governed by the fluid dynamics of its subatomic particles.

It appears that the motion of objects with less density or the machinations of its subatomic matter is compelled in its trajectory by the force or network waves of an entity with enhanced energy dynamics or mass. There is some likelihood involving waves of communication or small subatomic particle fluid dynamics amongst the universe’s black holes. ²⁵ Gravity then must be envisioned as a system or matrix of waves interconnecting and governing the motion of all objects with some kind of traditional molecular mass. It is evident that the relationship between gravity, dark matter as well as energy is not understood, and is still shrouded in an ineffable mystique.

The human central nervous system can only empirically pursue a particular segment of physical reality; and time and space analysis is an arbitrary interpretation of the universe’s infinite complexity of unrelenting subatomic motions. The concept of the finite or infinity as well as death and rebirth may only be constructs unique to the cortical super circuitry of certain axonal complexes of the earthly homo sapiens. It is difficult to assess whether the nucleotide sequences which eventually lead to the translation of the vast array of amino acid structures of the human physiology is a template for other enigmatic molecular organisms. Thus, our empirical science could be flawed, and only relevant to the cortical machinations of this unique species. Many philosophers have stated that our enigmatic inquiries could only be then construed to be a fallacious dream.

It is necessary to regard the big bang theory as an erroneous, and futile attempt to homeostatically regulate the over-firing of particular cortical super circuits or the fictitious thrall related to creational myths consecrated in both endogenous and more contemporary societies. Future physicists need to produce complex paradigms explicating the relationship between dark energy and matter and black holes. If there is any phenomena like the big bang theory or entropy and regenesis of light related energy matter, it would then be engendered by black holes in an orchestrated manner throughout the universe’s dark energy subatomic fluid sphere. Thus, puerile analysis of black holes with respect to the recycling of light based energy may in a metaphorical manner be representative of earthly volcanoes. This paradigm is novel, and does not yet have any mathematical veracity. Currently, there are not any theoretical papers discerning the relationship between dark energy and black holes nor how non-traditional subatomic particles regulate them. In the preceding 30,000 years when the human cortex throughout its epigenetic alterations commenced neurologically more complex conceptualization or philosophical reflection regarding this organism’s relationship to the celestial sphere has only yielded very limited substantiated empirical veracity. Many neurobiologists have speculated about the problematic contentiousness between certain cortical super circuits which have epigenetically evolved compared to the genetic architecture or its axonal connectivity of the earlier homo sapien’s neo-cortex.

The term pertaining to human consciousness according to neuroscientists has not yet been substantiated in terms of specific neurological machinations; and could be then a distinctive meta-phenomena from the fluid dynamics of the universe’s known physical gestalt. In the preceding two millenniums, the pejorative siege between Plato and Aristotle has not been mitigated; and human metaphysical predilection is still academically a confounding conundrum. This specie’s quest in Nietzschean terms for the Apollonian may be devastating to the homo sapiens’ innate mystical proclivities. Anthropologists seem to concur that atavistic humans possessed a propensity to experience the celestial sphere with some kind of mystical intentionality.

Contemporary humans as a function of epigenetic neurological remodeling have become disinclined in 30,000 years to be intoxicated by the body’s ecstatic celestial revelry; and instead have formulated conceptual systems to venerate teleological abstractions which are now being replaced by sophisticated scientific mathematical theories. The big bang paradigm is absurd in a similar manner to other mythic indigenous conjurings as astrophysicists have still not been able to discern the universe’s enigmatic machinations. Space and time analysis most likely is only a facet of the human cortex’s neurophysiology or reflective intelligence. It may not necessarily be a ubiquitous aspect of other entities throughout distinctive galaxies.

Physicists in the future will be liberated from time and space cycles, and will scrutinize in the unified manner the continuum of the metamorphosis of various kinds of small atomic particles’ fluid dynamics. Homo sapiens are pondering a multitude of abstruse questions without any form of resolution. The ocean of dark energy demonstrates the limitations of time-based analysis. The phenomena of consciousness like that of dark energy defies Newtonian physics or the excessive conjurings related to our current empirical analysis. The simple homo sapiens’ tool maker residing in small social units like similar hominoid species was not necessarily cognizant of the universe’s furtive physical machinations.

Dark energy and matter comprises over 95% of the known universe, and exerts a negative pressure on gravity. It most likely existed prior and during the hypothetical big bang event. Dark matter is distinctive from dark energy; ²⁶ and it does not emit or radiate any kind of photon related light. It was estimated by the Planck Mission Team that ordinary matter only constitutes only five percent of the universe where as dark matter comprises twenty six percent and dark energy represents sixty eight percent of space²⁷. In the best case scenario, the big bang theory represents the genesis of less than four percent of the universe’s matter and energy; and most likely this ordinary sustenance is recycled in black holes rather than the big bang theory. Dark energy and matter constitutes 95 percent of the known universe and is in opposition to gravity’s effects.

This dark matter is modulated by occult subatomic particles qualitatively distinctive from those comprising ordinary matter^{28, 29}. Every galaxy is inchoated with dark matter and energy; and stars only account for a small percentage of the universe’s matter. Black holes can be viewed as a conduit between dark matter and electromagnetic radiation. The relationship between black holes and dark matter is not at all understood. In the author’s view, dark matter is not privy to any aspect of the big bang paradigm; and most likely it modulates the gravitational imperative of black holes; and possibly the genesis of star formation and even entropy itself. In general, the connection between black holes and dark energy as well as the big bang theory is a conundrum for modern theoretical physicists.

Homo sapiens have departed from the ecstatic revelry of blending with the celestial marvelment where Apollonian cortical processes from cryptic epigenetics are now enabling this hominoid to speculate about the relationship of colossal furtive black holes to that of the universe’s prevalent dark energy which comprises the enigmatic subatomic particles whose fluid dynamics are antithetical to the sway of gravity. In existential terms, this species which is ninety seven percent genetically similar to the chimpanzee as a result of epigenetics is culturally now extremely divergent from other existing hominoids. It appears that homo sapiens are forsaken in a conceptual reality engendered by astrophysicists where the abstractions of epistemology have melted into an eerie subatomic dew.

The big bang theory, though it has more inordinate merit than other indigenous mythic creation folklore is hypothetically fallacious as a result of innovative constructs of astrophysicists in the 21^st century. Forlorn and forsaken homo sapiens are now estranged from their salubrious instinctually; and are now confounded in an abyss of contracting supernovas impaled by the lurid antics of dark energy. These seemingly biological entities are now divested of their mystical prodigiousness to experience the rapturous mystique of celestial apotheosis. This species as a function of epigenetic related neurological super circuit remodeling are only discerning a sea of ever expanding constructs generated by their ever-increasing ratiocination. In summary, the big bang theory needs to be revised; and thoroughly updated as a phenomena regulated by dark energy’s affects on colossal black holes.
