How do you take into consideration those people who are telepathic. They have no language, they only have understanding.

...and of course they do have language. But what is language even, if it isn't 'just' another thing our mind addresses when it wants to?

do you think as we evolve, and hoping we last that long, we'll become mainly telepathic? Side story, bear with me: I never had a smart dog until I inherited my huskie/shepherd. Only a llahsa apso, which didn't count, obviously. One day, Claudius, the shepherd, came into my bedroom, carrying a bottle of vitamin pills. I'd heard a noise off in the kitchen which clearly had been a cat exploring a cupboard and knocking bottles of pills onto the floor. I'd mentally told myself I'd put my book down in a minute and go clean it up. So I'm lying there, reading, and in comes Claudius with the bottle. The dog dropped it on the floor and glared at me. I swear I heard what she said, to wit: "Well! Get up off your lazy behind and do something about that cat! She's made a mess again!" Immediately,I apologized (out loud), and obeyed. I have heard Claudius speak to me mentally at other times, too. It's not just body language, it's something else. And don't say I'm mental!
