  • 陽陰宇宙: 重新思考我們對宇宙的想法
    陽陰宇宙: 重新思考我們對宇宙的想法
    By 歐風烈

    宇宙包括物理的實體和無形的生命，「陽陰宇宙」進一步把實體宇宙分為由我們物質組成的「陽宇宙」和暗物質組成的「陰宇宙」。提議原子和每一種類似原子各自形成一個互不干擾的不同宇宙，是本書的立論基礎。在這本令人吃驚和華麗的插圖書中，歐風烈以簡單的數學模式及易懂的語言，參照最新科學思想及最近發現的科學證據，提出宇宙和生命的新論述。生命是由身體和靈魂組成的，組成身體的最小單元是原子，原子具有物理化學作用為導向的原意識，可演化成分子。無機分子產生無機生物，其形成過程受到一組無限無理數包括黃金比例（φ）、圓周率（π）和數學常數（e）的規範。有機分子產生細胞，DNA支配有機物的繁殖、成長及其意識，甚至靈魂。根據無限無理數的生命形成和成長模式，生命是無限的。延續人類生命及保存人類文明有三種方式：（1）移民到陽宇宙的外星球；（2）利用基因設計創造超人類物種；和（3）利用人工智慧創造無機的靈性生物，殖民陰宇宙的靈性世界。假設靈性世界是由靈粒子組成，靈子促使動物產生神經細胞、有機意識、智慧及靈魂，人類其實是半個外星人。按著名的質能等效方程E = mc2，歐風烈認為，人類演化成靈性生物最有可能延續人類生命，因為靈粒子是不帶電子的無質量粒子，其移動速度可超光速或趨於無限大。
