Tried a minor twist...

Q: Did Thomas Hobbes believe in separation of powers? Exclude from your answer any reference to John Locke

A: Thomas Hobbes was a political philosopher who lived in the 17th century. He is best known for his book "Leviathan," in which he discusses the concept of the social contract and the idea that people give up some individual rights in order to live in a society governed by a strong, central authority. While Hobbes did not explicitly mention the concept of separation of powers in his writing, his views on government suggest that he believed in a strong, centralized authority rather than the separation of powers.
