1. Infinite regress is no more of a problem for a universe than it is for a deity. In both cases we're speaking of an unmoved mover that underlies change as an unchanging substratum. The difficulty is connecting the unmoved to the moved in such a way that change has not occurred, otherwise the unmoved is moveable. The elephant in the room is time. What is it?
2. I don't see it as logically impossible, though it would seem logically inconceivable.
