Or will there be a good chance of it being stolen?

No original thought allowed.
 
From the rules page:
Speculative or Personal Theories:
Physics Forums is not intended as an alternative to the usual professional venues for discussion and review of new ideas, e.g. personal contacts, conferences, and peer review before publication. If you have a new theory or idea, this is not the place to look for feedback on it or help in developing it.
On that page there is a link leading to a FAQ that describes the reasoning behind the rule.

You got no co-authors?

Certainly! There is no reason for other crackpots to not steal it and submit it themselves, if you are foolish enough to do such a thing.

But the more puzzling question here is, why do you have to even resort to posting it on an open, public forum to get feedback? You are not the first one to ask, or want to do this in this forum, and each time this has not turn out well.
