Well, to a degree. It kind of does.

It is impossible to think 2+2 = 5. The claim is, if you say it enough, people will think it.

That's the flaw.

What one can say and what one can think are two separate things. One can say 2+2=5. One cannot think it.

People use belief language often do not make this distinction, because they often say true things that they do not know are true but merely believe are true. Perhaps Kevin Sorbo only believes that 2+2=5 so in his case, his statement is true, but not about thinking 2+2=5 but believing it does.

And why Kevin Sorbo?

That's the question.
