Re: Is atheism a religion
What I've shown is that the human mind can't deal in negatives. The only way you can conceive of a "not pink" elephant is to substitute pink for something else.... another positive.... like "gray" or "blue" or "polka dot."
That was the point of my experiment.
Yes, they are gray, which is "not pink". What you're essentially asking for is a colorless elephant, but that's not how you described it.
So admit you are wrong and move on.
