    I believe that in this context, original does not mean you are the only person who ever had this thought. I mean, it’s a thought that you generated yourself without somebody else having given you the information needed to generate that thought in the first place.

      Yes, that would count as an original thought… whether someone else had already thought it or not doesn’t matter, as long as you yourself thought it entirely on your own.
