To date, none of the fields of science, philosophy and religion
have provided any explanation for how God created stars, animals
and plants. Specifically, science has only the "gravitational
theory," philosophy gives no explanation, and religion speaks only
of a "benevolence." I intend to demonstrate the theory by which all
scientists, philosophers and religious people can be convinced,
namely that "the explosive shape of the universe" - the ." 1 0"
type - is the "universal law." In fact, the universe has only one
shape, which is the explosion shape, formed according to the
universal law. It is in accordance with this law that celestial
bodies, plants and animals, including people, were created. In
other words, this corresponds wonderfully to the prophecy of the
Old Testament.
