The Big Bang and Black Holes....

Question Everything:-

Is there a relationship between our Big Bang and Black Holes? Specifically, super-massive black holes, and the primordial superheated 'soup' from which our universe eventually coagulated. Approximately 75% of our universe is hydrogen, and the other 25% is Helium, and the other elements we're familiar with make up less than 1% of the total. 

Our familiar atoms are made of subatomic particles, such as electrons, muons, quarks, and leptons, and of those, we haven't yet found any subdivisions of either electrons or muons. So could those survive ingestion by a super-massive black hole and ejection from its other end, to form the plasma we postulate as the initiation of our universe? In other words, is this a natural cycle of events? Does matter eventually get swallowed by black holes, to re-appear elsewhere as fundamental subatomic particles in a superheated state corresponding to conditions similar to those of the Big Bang? Is it a recurring cycle?

Sometimes, I wish I could sit down with some of the brains of the world and just ask stupid questions like these, and see what they might say.
