Answer 1

Only because most people don't read most of the answers. Proof: Go ask what 1+1 is, you'll get 500000 resposes that look like this:

Answer 2

True. Like you seem to be enigmatic and wise though your question which does not ask any thing. I have noticed that. Silence is a sign of wisdom. But a question half asked is only a sign of half cooked wisdom. The latter part of your question makes sense. I agree with you that your question has elicited this much of a wisdom from me. Therefore, your question is a wise question. But the second part is disproved. My answer imparts more wisdom than your question.

Answer 3

G'day I pleadthefifth,

Thank you for your question.

Socrates would have agreed with you. Perhaps his most important contribution to Western thought is his dialectic (answering a question with a question) method of inquiry, known as the Socratic Method or method of elenchos, which he largely applied to the examination of key moral concepts such as the Good and Justice. It was first described by Plato in the Socratic Dialogues. For this, Socrates is customarily regarded as the father of political philosophy and ethics or moral philosophy, and as a fountainhead of all the main themes in Western philosophy in general.

In this method, a series of questions are posed to help a person or group to determine their underlying beliefs and the extent of their knowledge. The Socratic method is a negative method of hypothesis elimination, in that better hypotheses are found by steadily identifying and eliminating those which lead to contradictions. It was designed to force one to examine his own beliefs and the validity of such beliefs.

I enclose sources for your reference.

Regards

Answer 5

You may like to edit ...last I looked the term was "impart" and NO I don't agree!!! after looking at the questions some users ask,I'm askance at how some answerers honestly don't bite their collective tongues to give of their knowledge.

Answer 6

Ya! and nobodies goes through every answer but a good question attracts attention and a bad one irritates.

Answer 7

Very true.
When a question is raised, we think for its answer
But when an answer is given, we think of who is answering and why
The former thinking takes us into the field of knowledge
The latter thinking plunges us into the sea of people politics

Your this question too should make many wiser including myself.

When you read this answer, please do not think of me or my agenda !
