The question is, how does one properly phrase a question that elicits a thoughtful response without raising the ire of the respondents. Is there a tried and true method of asking that causes someone to answer in a truthful and logical manner?

You speak as clear as water to me me mate. I see most clearly where you are coming from. One thing you could possibly do is to ask wishfully, leaving aside overtones of religion and culture, though this is no warranty you will get the message across, for many a man would get offended just because of the content or meaning your words refer to, and not because of the way you put a question over to them. If you do not believe me, just try to comment on religion, however politely you should, to a fundamentalist and see what happens. I am with you in this.
