Well, if e=mc^2 the energy is just mass times a huge number, so yes your right!

Yes, if we follow the theory of relativity, Energy and Mass (matter) are interchangeable, according to basic algebra:
E=MC^2
E/M=C^2

M=EC^2

Unless :. represents, "and then a miracle occurred", you might want to check your math there.

The greater the act of observation the more collapsed particles there are. I.E. matter is transformed through the act of observation from a wave function to stuff!
The more and more something is observed the greater the accumulation of collapsed particles ie stuff or matter.
This leads me to think that gravity is actually the result of accumulated acts of observing over time.
so it's possible to observe without collapsing the wave function, it depends on how the observations are made.
It is a widespread misunderstanding that, when two slits are open but a detector is added to the experiment to determine which slit a photon has passed through, then the interference pattern no longer forms and the experimental apparatus yields two simple patterns, one from each slit, superposed without interference. Such a result would be obtained only if the results of two experiments were superposed in which either one or the other slit is closed. However, there are many other methods to determine whether a photon passed through a slit, for instance by placing an atom at the position of each slit and monitoring whether one of these atoms is influenced by a photon passing it. In general in such experiments the interference pattern will be changed but not be completely wiped out. Interesting experiments of this latter kind have been performed with photons[7] and with neutrons.
The question is why does gravity or matter bend spacetime? Well I think it's because space is a constant medium and will bend to accomodate energy that has been observed. The reason gravity slows time is i think because time itself is an observable energy stream, so when time comes near the vicinty of matter it too begins to collapse or slow down in speed due I can only assume to the grip accumulated conscious energy has on time. In other words massive amounts of matter act like a tractor beam litterally pulling or sucking in time towards that which has been observed!

Sometimes I help my kid with algebra, but have difficulty balancing the checkbook.
Go figure.

Mass is condensed energy, yes. This is true.
Now what are the implications if energy is compressed space time?
