In this article I will try to show that the Language of Thought (Lot) is not the vehicle of the representations involved in language processing. For that purpose, first, I will analyze the Regress Arguments, which are supposed to argue against Lot hypothesis. I will discard these arguments since they wouldn't be a good strategy. Second, I will present what I call an "Inference to the Least Likely Explanation" as a correct argument against Lot in language processing.
