That's what we've been saying all along......
In any contention or conclusion, there are premises, conclusion, issue, assumptions, missing premises and assumptions etc. .
and from the conclusion, it is the acknowledgement that "god exists".

Therefore. . .
Whether it is impossible that a god exists
Whether it is possible that a god exists

The assumption here is "god exists",
ie. it is the "subject matter" or "facts of the discussion"

The "possibility" is the issue, it is not the "subject matter" or "facts of the discussion"

same as "The House"
"The" is meaningless. . it must have the subject-matter, ie. "House"
The "House" must exist or acknowledged as exists for the conclusion defining Atheism to make sense.
