Let's try not to turn this into a fedora meme thread

What is the benefit of being an atheist?

God is commonly defined as an omniscient (infinite knowledge), omnipotent (unlimited power), omnipresent (present everywhere) and benevolent (only good) entity.

Is there any logical inconsistency in this definition?

I have seen several paradoxes like below

>Does God know what he's going to do tomorrow? If so, could he do something else?" If God knows what will happen, and does something else, he's not omniscient. If he knows and can't change it, he's not omnipotent.

>"Can 'an omnipotent being' create a stone so heavy that it cannot lift it?"

Or the "problem of evil" (pic related).

Do they mean that the defintion of God ( as commonly held) is logically inconsistent?
