Tendency Towards Complexity

I came across this theory while reading a book called Shantaram.

The gist is this:

In the beginning before the Big Bang, everything was contained in a perfect simple singularity. Then the bang happened, and the universe began to expand, and since that time, everything has been increasing in complexity. The nature of everything in the universe is to do this. The more complex something is, the more alive it is. Also that everything is heading toward an ultimate complexity, which can be called God.

It also goes on to say that anything that helps this process is Good, and anything that thwarts it is Evil.


I kind of like it.
