Yeah, this. To me, the beauty of science and math is like a part of how I understand God.
And this is despite the fact that my mom tried her best to raise me to believe in the most anti-science positions taken by Christians aside from the "dinosaurs-didn't-exist" position. Although she did try to keep us away from dinosaur stuff on the basis that we might learn too much about evolution *eyeroll*
That said, my answer is that from a scientific standpoint, it's theoretically possible that beings that exist outside our space and time dimensions would be able to fit all the criteria for most deities and other spiritual beings. And, since we don't have the capacity or technology to measure it, then we should leave it as an open question until then.
