If you will explain what you mean by God is the eternal truth, I will try to answer better.

God is Being, Good, True, Beautiful and One. These are the five transcendentals, convertible terms which mean the same thing (God). They are simply different ways in which aspects of His nature are apprehended by us.

I thought you were objecting to my criticism of your universal skepticism, specifically, the problem of an infinite regress of skeptical statements. I'd like to know how you think this problem can be overcome.
