Which bring us, of course, to the much more workable and useful Big Bong theory.

The Universe is expanding, and cooling. Therefore it must have at one time been tiny and hot, like Nicole Richie. But for that to happen it must have been a singularity, a point of space that it infinitely dense, like Paris Hilton's brain. Also, this expansion is slowing, meaning that at one time there was a period of rapid expansion, where the hottness spread fast and easy, like Jenna Jameson. Big Bang is used to describe this period of rapid expansion from size zero, like Posh Spice, to it's present huge size, like Queen Latifa.

One theory is that the big bang is a cyclical thing. Bang - expanding universe - contracting universe - whole universe compressed to an impossibly dense mass - bang - repeat ad infinitum.

Within each cycle you have infinite possibilities.
Whoa, I've never heard that theory, but in essence, that's what my story is about.

Really? It was while tripping that I came to the realisation that I was god, and that man was made in my image. Which was due to a big bang of a kind...

I've done research on that subject. Smoke starts out at a point of singularity, expands rapidly and is cooled...

Ever tried a vodka bong?

this may not be exactly what your looking for...but it does deal with the creation of worlds and life (not really humans) and a very good read too
