there are many passages about christ dying for all sin, sins of the world, etc.
but there are also these passages of a sin that cannot be forgiven no matter what?

christ died for all sins, is there a sin that is too much, or just an ongoing attitude that keeps us from him?
what is the truth behind this blasphemy/apostasy?

The verses you are quoting must be taken in context, Mr. Nothing.
You see, one must accept Jesus as the Messiah as part of salvation. And Jesus was doing miracles that were never heard of before to substantiate His messiahship. Then the Pharisees said, as recorded in Matthew 12:24:
"This fellow doth not cast out devils, but by Beelzebub the prince of the devils."
When soeone sees profound miricale, like controlling the elements, healing the blind and lame, raising the dead, then there is absolutely nothing God can do to reach them.
Jesus also said, even if someone reaised from the grave, you would not believe it because you don't believe Moses and the prophets. How true, He raised from the grave and the priests paid the soldiers to say the disciples stole him. How obsurd. Allowing a prisoner to escape carried the death penalty.
Let me ask you a question, Mr. Nothing:
Is anyone doing the miracles like Jesus was? Absolutely not. The Holy Spirit has not poured upon the Gentile churches like it did at Pentecost either. SO:
No one today can commit the unpardonable sin. You can reject important truths to where it is difficult to save you, but you are not attributing God's miracles to Belzebub like the religious leaders.
So, rest assured that God is still in the forgiving business, and the Bible is not conflicting with itself.
One more thing, Mr. Nothing. There is a Bible code that the angel says "The wicked will do wickedly, and none of the wicked will understand." You can find the key on the Internet to unlock that code and know if you are one of the wicked that do not understand. www.revelado.

However, the Bible says: "The Wise Shall Understand" and if you do, you have not committed the unpardonable sin.
Blessings, One-Way
P.S.: I don't condemn any athiests because how can you believe with the nonsense presented from pulpits today.

The so called "unforgivable sin" can no longer be committed. Jesus said that the religious rulers of his time who attributed the miracles that He was doing to the Devil were blaspheming against the Holy Spirit because they knew that it was God's work and not the Devil's.
Today the only sin that cannot be forgiven is the sin of rejecting the sacrifice that God made to pay for our sins by sending Jesus to die on a cross for us.

Yes, Jesus Christ died to pay for our sins.
But, sinners must believe this.
Not everyone does, that is the unpardonable sin.
This sin is against the work of the Holy Spirit who gives testimony to Jesus as Savior.

Christ was not yet forgiven for his own sin.

the only sin that is not forgiven is not believing.
