The Universe is defined as ALL THERE IS which is absolute / eternal by definition even if it cannot actually be concluded by a conditional Scientific Framework And System at this point in time
Note you're a part and parcel of reality.
There is no way you can extract yourself away from reality to stand on a God's eye view to make any objective conclusion such as
Are you Absolutely 100% SURE of this?
By the way does one NEED to extract them self away from reality to have a God's eye view of things?
Seems a rather UNreal thing to expect.

The above speculation is at best a guess.
I offer another alternative explanation, i.e. Know Thyself.
Why you are guessing is because of the subliminal psychological impulses from within that compel to make such claims from a God's-eye-view.
One aspect that is missing is what is happening in your brain that trigger such a guess to an impossible thing as 'Universe as ALL there is' as absolute.
You are imperatively part and parcel of 'Universe as ALL there is' - thus how can that be
unconditional upon you. Thus cannot be absolute.
We can use the phrase 'Universe as ALL there is' but it always must be conditional and qualified.
Why MUST "it" always be conditional and qualified?
If you are TRYING TO suggest that by human beings using definitions, and/or meanings, to explain what they are saying, then that is form of conditional or qualifying, and therefore A framework or system within and of itself, and that 'unconditionally means such a thing is not conditioned by ANY Framework and System', then I guess, through your own logic, you have PROVED your own self correct. Your own conjecture, which became a BELIEF that;
God* is an unconditional impossibility.
God as an absolute is totally unconditional.
You have now just proved 100% correct means your BELIEF has therefore now become a Justified True Belief, which in and of itself IS an Absolute True FACT, which is unambiguous AND irrefutable.
Congratulations, you must be very happy now.
Just to make sure that i have this correct;
Every thing that is conditioned are possibilities.
God as an absolute is totally unconditional.
God is an unconditional impossibility.
Which one are your premises and which one is your conclusion. Your argument here looks VERY circular.
Also, if ALL words are given definitions and/or meanings by human beings, and by your very OWN logic 'you can use a phrase but it always must be conditional and qualified', was I right in thinking that if a phrase was conditioned and qualified by actual words with actual definitions and/or actual meanings, then this means that those phrases/words are not totally unconditional?
If that is right for a phrase, then can a word, itself, also be conditioned and/or qualified by a definition?
If yes, then why is the phrase/word 'God' NOT able to be conditioned and qualified also by (a) definition(s)?
If the word/phrase 'God' can NOT be conditioned and qualified, then how truly amazing, and coincidental, that by the use of your very OWN definitions AND very OWN logic you have proved with "logical reasoning' and "evidence" that your very OWN BELIEF was actually true, right, and correct all along.
If however the word/phrase 'God' can be conditioned and qualified, then we are back to the very beginning, where I have from just about, if not, the actual very onset of our discussions I have been asking you to DEFINE the word 'God', in your OWN words, so then as least I have some clue as to what you are actually talking about when you say "God is an impossibility".
If every thing that is conditioned are possibilities, as you say, AND 'God', Itself, can be conditioned and qualified by definitions, then that MUST MEAN 'God can be a possibility' also.
Now fancy that, after you continually using thousands upon thousands of words, in all different manner of ways, just TRYING TO "justify" your very OWN beliefs, we are back to WHERE I started, with just a couple of dozen words; If you are going to insist that God is an impossibility, then define the word 'God', in your OWN words, from your OWN perspective.
You can keep TRYING TO prove that your BELIEF is absolutely correct, but HOW God actually does exist will be PROVEN to thousands upon thousands of people BEFORE you even begin to come out of your disillusioned state that you are in now.
If you can NOT grasp what I am saying and meaning here, then just imagine quite a few years ago, from YOUR perspective, when some people were starting to realize that what one was saying about the earth revolves around the sun was actually thee Truth, while others, like your self, hang on to their BELIEFS and vehemently kept TRYING TO fight for those BELIEFS.
