Negative. You were galaxies away from explicating how it's neither. Let me demonstrate: option d, squirrels, just because. Accept it or accept you're wrong.
You said it could be "neither". That's all I said, that it could be neither.

My answer was "neither". I can give that answer because it's not a true dichotomy. I never said it it necessarily was neither. It's neither because there are no gods.

It was. My answer is "neither", the fact that I can give that answer demonstrates that the dichotomy is false.
me Wrote:So it took this long for you to admit I was right, basically. And you still haven't admitted I'm right explicitly, you've only done it implicitly, and you're probably going to continue to double down on why it's not a false dichotomy, according to you, despite just now implicitly agreeing that it is one.

A false dichotomy is a dichotomy where "neither" can be given as answer.
I said it was a false dichotomy.
You admitted that "neither" can be given as an answer.
Thereby you admitted that I was right.

There is no "brand" of logic, there's contradictory and non-contradictory logic. You are being contradictory because you're insisting the dilemma we are discussing is not a false dichotomy at the same time as admitting that it is.
