Okay, I'm sure real physics fits into this somewhere ( what the hell do I know, I studied History). But the energy problem is solved simply with the standard answer: energy can niether be created or destroyed, it can however expand and contract. You have to take for granted that since energy can not be created it is allready there-infinite and limitless. okay thats the energy issue. I'don't know about the mass issue though, that it would take to duplicate the matter of a universe unless you take into effect that were talking about unknowns here. can energy create matter? if that is where the universe is drawn from originally why not? the next you start to get into philisophical issues-you have to eliminate fate. Fate is meaningless in a multi-verse where all choices are played out equally. This puts the idea of choice as the most powerfull idea ( or is it a form of energy?) in the multi-verse ( I guess I have to use that term here). The idea that every decision is played out for some reason denotes meaning and purpose which is where we enter the idea of religion and a concious mind ochestrateing the events and pasic principals of reality.

Okay, How's that?
