since we all know you can't prove God exists or doesn't exist in a scientific study as we know it today, can they acknowledge its possible ( even if they choose not to personally believe it of course )?

EXTREMELY unlikely, but possible.

I am not closed to any rationale argument that attempts to prove the existence of god deductively. I will always read and consider it, and accept it if, and only if, it is sound under heavy scrutiny.
All such arguments have failed.
However, understand that there is a vast gulf between proving something called "god" (however the argument defines the word) and accepting any particular trait(s) outside of the requirements of that argument. I'd be sitting down for a very long time to build a consistent theology, and it may not resemble anything that the argument was wanted to show.

Possible, yes. Likely, no.
In the same way that it is possible there are really unicorns, fairies, Santa Claus & other such things. God is about the same probability for me.
I am always open to new evidence. I just think it is very unlikely there will every be any that is convincing.

I recognize that you want us all to believe in the possibility that the Flying Spagetti Monster is real. I agree with you. Open minded religious people should all recognize that their religion is perhaps a poor second to the truth of the Flying Spagetti Monster.

Extremely unlikely, and not any of the presented gods, but something like that could be possible.

it is possible that a being created the universe - although I wouldnt say they have infinite power or are perfect. It could be a computer boffin from an extremely advanced civilisation who just created our universe inside a computer as a simulation of his own - lets hope hes not running windows....arrggg blue screen!

Perhaps I am presently mistaken on the point; but I think those people would be considered agnostics.

No it is not possible. God is and it will always be just a silly fairy tale.
