The reason I'm interested in this is that it seems some of my fellow atheists are not willing to concede that - if a god hypothetically proved his/her/its existence to them - any god which exists in the real world has to be incapable of performing logically impossible feats, such as creating a married bachelor.

No, logical impossibilities wouldn't be a factor if I were assessing the credentials of a god-like being.
