If you have an open and inquiring mind, you may have already concluded that the mechanisms driving the development of biological life extend beyond Darwinian processes, such as natural selection, and those commonly associated with much of conventional thinking. Here, we move forward in the development of new theory, recognising the role of the physical universe, where intrinsic instruments common to the biological universe have modelled life through progressive developmental forces, together with adjunct forces of variability. Importantly, this has involved two principal stages, which can be defined as the Molecular and Cellular Evolution of genetic and cellular forms from inert physical matter, and secondly, the Biological Evolution of the primordial and ancestral cells that developed from those forms.
