The three abilities are often listed as "omnipotence, omiscience, and omnibenevolence". Omnipresence is counted in omnipotence. Also, there are many arguments as to how omnipotence in and of itself is a logical paradox and therefore cannot exist, and as to how an entity that is all of omniscient, omnipotent, and omnibenevolent can allow our world to exist, further disproving these abilities and therefore disproving the existence of a God of this nature at least. I won't go into those because the last few pages of the "How can people be atheists?" thread covers that.
They do not have an answer, they have a statement which religious people simply accept. I have a theory which is a more valid answer than "a wizard did it". Should you disprove these theories, we will accept this proof and use whatever knowledge we gain from the proof to find another theory, rather than persist with our theory and find OTHER proof that may back it up.
