If you have a problem with infinite regression, starting with the universe resolves it just as well. Gross events (but not some quantum events) within our universe must have a cause, it does not follow that the universe itself requires a cause, any more than a wall being made of indestructible bricks means that the wall is indestructible.

The Iliad is just as historical. Troy really existed, the Trojan War really happened, etc. Do you think that if follows from some parts being historically true that the supernatural parts are true as well? If it does not follow, then it also does not follow for the Bible.
