Of course. This can be taken two ways, but I think that both of the two ways end up with a "yes". First: I can think without someone using language, however still using words in your head (I hope that made sense). Right now, I am thinking and I am not speaking. Second: You can think outside of language. One can think in pictures, in sounds, in moving images, one does not need words to describe a thought, one only needs the senses.
I agree with A, You foolish foolish E. In fact, in order to punish you, I will no longer us that lttr for th rst of this post. Now, on to my rant. All bings ar sntint, including dogs, cats, squirrls, and ls. Thus, sinc all bings ar sntint, all bings can think, and ar prfctly capabl of thinking. This dos not count in my cruad against bad splling. This is mrly m taking a stand against a tyrant. Down with . Down with . Down with .
NO! You can't think! Now quit trying! I hear thinkings illegal in some states now.
