Gravity: What Powers Mass's Pull on Objects?

[harp AP 2010]

Where does mass get the energy to supply a pull on other objects?

No such energy is required.

A specific, reasonably complete, well described, and peer-reviewed/accepted theory of what exactly is the cause of mass attraction is worthy of a Nobel Prize.
Hope it happens in my lifetime. I'm interested.

Mass produces an interference in the gravitational field, it warps the fabric of space-time. Similar to putting a bowling ball and a golf ball on a trampoline. The bowling ball bends the fabric and as a result the smaller mass (golf ball) will attract to the bowling ball. Is this not how gravity works? someone feel free to correct me.

gravity is not a force ;)

Explaining gravity with gravity. Yes, gravity works exactly like gravity works. You are correct, in a tautological way.
