You follow along like sheep too though. Your religion is literally about sheep following a shepherd.
>It's been adopted as derogatory slang for people who are perceived to be incapable of thinking for themselves.
And how do you decide whether someone is capable of thinking for themselves?
Whether or not they agree with your personal politics? Lmao

Wasn't there something in the Bible about not listening to your own reason but submitting to the will of God or something along those lines?
>a shephard caring for his sheep and leading them to green pastures.
>Not following like sheep.
So, following like sheep then? Because that's what "leading sheep" kind of applies.

You clearly, ironically enough for someone who loves the word, can't think for yourself, lol.
I watched that video. It was interesting.
So is the idea that if you don't have an internal monologue then you don't have a soul or don't think for yourself?
Because I don't think the latter is necessarily true, and as for the former, you kind of need to define "soul", I guess.
Personally, I have an internal monologue, but sometimes I come across a concept that can't be verbalised, and then I just have some kind of "feeling" in place of a word in my internal monologue.
Maybe my internal monologue isn't always on, I don't know.
Wbu?

I think, for thinking I have more of an external monologue than an internal one. I’m always talking out loud to myself and even when I try not to do it, I will still move my lips and mumble. Except when I’m reading or writing, it seems. Like now, I’m thinking of what I’m typing and when I read I think of what I’m reading both quietly. And when I’m thinking of how my thoughts can be heard by other people that way and I don’t want that, that seems to motivate me not to vocalise them.
For me it is in words by default, except when I can't think of the word for something.
I wonder if that woman’s way of thinking is what happens when you study maths or linguistics enough. It sounds like she’s talking about the sentence diagrams used in linguistics.
