Why can’t non-permeable or fully permeable membrane support life?

One wouldn’t allow for passive transport. And the other would allow to much. The membrane serves as a gate. Non-permeable would be a solid wall were nothing and no one can get through or get out . Including things like water. And fully permeable would represent no gate at all and would allow to much in and out of the cell.
