Even if theism is a failure, it's still superior to atheism

Prove it's impossible for this creator to exist. Good luck.
If omniscient, then God has perfect foreknowledge of his own actions. 
Perfect foreknowledge precludes the ability to choose something different than what he knows he will choose.
This cancels out his omnipotence.
If God is strictly outside of the universe, then he cannot act on the universe, since any action that occurs to the universe is automatically part of the universe.
