Within the framework of God’s Principle, the universe does<br>not dynamically evolve geometry from initial conditions, but instead selects en-<br>tire cosmological histories that minimize a real-valued structural cost functional<br>U [Φ], where Φ = {gµν , ψ, ϕ} represents the total configuration of spacetime, matter<br>fields, and a structural selector</p> <p>We show that, in decohered semiclassical branches, minimizing U [Φ] yields the Ein-<br>stein field equations in the low-curvature limit. Gravity thus arises not from quan-<br>tizing the metric, but from selecting geometries that maximize causal smoothness,<br>suppress gravitational entropy, and enable global reconvergence.
