The Principle of Contingent Causation: The Impossibility of Infinite Regress.

No. 
God is "timeless", your invocation of time is meaningless for an "eternal", (timeless) being. 
Philosophy 101.

Theism is not true, and in fact incoherent.
Every religion is true one way or another. It is true when understood metaphorically. But when it gets stuck in its own metaphors, interpreting them as facts, then you are in trouble. - Joseph Campbell  Popcorn
