People don't question or answer anything?

Question

If there is a question then there is an answer and so it was never a question to begin with.

So then what did "IT" begin with?

Answer 1

it began with a thought

Answer 2

The problem seems to be with the initial statement. It may be true that the answer existed before the question was ever asked. However, that does not mean that the question was not valid. If the asker of the question did not know the answer, then the asking of the question was the beginning of the pursuit which led to knowledge of the answer.

So if questions are never asked, the answers still exist. But since we never discover those answers--never bothering to ask the questions--the truth has no meaning for us. And THAT would be a sad state of affairs, don't you think?

Answer 3

I would say "it" began with a thought.

Of course, technically, you are right. There is an answer to all questions. The answers may not satisfy our expectations or solve the purpose of the question. But there is always an answer.
Even "I don't know" is an answer.

It's like "is the universe going to end?" If you answer yes or no, both answers are correct and both answers are wrong. But, they are both answers.

Answer 4

Yes where there is a question an answer has to exist, but the money isn't in the question, but in the answer.And by your question I can tell your a very poor man.But if questions don't exist then, answers don't either, because answers resolve questions.

Answer 5

Because people needed answers they started raising questions..questions existed since the evolution of mankind to which man himself started finding answers by making various inventions and discoveries..therefore questions always existed and will exist..

Answer 6

i do believe IT is the incipience,because the chicken is actually a chicken, and the egg will probably become a chicken and in the dictionary actuality comes before probability much like the laws of physics................................but why did you refer to IT in the past tense, IT leaves open two variables(present and future) thus making IT easier to decipher your hypothesis and find IT's corollary....... what i am trying to iterate here is the commonly assumed notion that if there were no eggs there would be no chickens. i hope this provides you an acceptable retort to IT.

Answer 7

There is no question until someone asks it. Questions and answers are just words. There is no reality or truth until someone believes that it is true.

Answer 8

they might be to shy to talk about certin things or they dont really have a good answer for the question

Answer 9

get a life and ask a question worth answeringgggg
