I only want you for your philosophy - x

A scientist would say, "Your question is not a question at all, because for a statement to be a question, it requires answers which are factual and reliable. While your question does not classify to that presumption."
An english professor would say, "Your question is gramatically incorrect, for the word "this" doesn't point to something that you've mentioned before you came up to that question"
While a philosopher would say, "There is no way for your question be unclassified as a question, because if it's been asked, there should be an answer to it, whether wholly accepted or not. But because that was a question that needs to be answered, then, we can say that there is a possibilty that your question may not be a question in a way or two. But one thing's for sure, your question is not a question, in a way that the question is incomplete because the "this" you have just stated doesn't exist within the question"
So we can conclude, a philosophical answer can be the same with an englsih professor's answer in way that it's been analyzed logically.

There are several different types of question, but all have the same ending... a question mark.
A closed question, such as; ¨¨Do you want to answer this question?¨¨ only requires a Yes or No answer and is therefore useful to get a decision but useless to open a conversation.
An open question such as yours, cannot be answered by Yes or No but requires a longer answer and is usually used to obtain more information.
An optional question again limits the conversation but will get an answer, for example, ¨¨Do you prefer blue or green?¨¨
A rhetorical question is one which does not require an answer and should not therefore be used on Yahoo answers.
Happy questioning.....

When you don't treat it as a question,literally speaking remove the question mark and it becomes a phrase only not a question.

You are asking a question about whether or not said question is really a question. So it kind of goes on and on in endless circles. Any questions?

As you are asking why it is not a question, therefore, it is a question, except that it is a question that does not require any real response as you are not asking for anything specific

if you're not asking for an answer therefore it is not a question.
a sentence should end up with a period if you don't want it to be
a question phrase...

There is not a way. Therefore, it is a question.
