If God is analogous to the creater of virtual particle that is the result of a quantum fluctuation, then He is embedded in a super-spacetime that is eternal and infinite and I will call THAT turtles all the way up.

There is still at least one instance of an uncaused cause. Since we can observe uncaused events in our everyday material world, the appeal to causation has no traction.

An uncaused event must have an infinite origin. Your inability to see a cause is not evidence of lack of a cause. It is hand waving. An uncaused event is known more commonly as a "miracle". The things you see without a natural cause are evidence of a supernatural cause, an infinite number of "miracles" right under your nose.
