My last two questions began with "why" and re-reading them just makes me think o_O. "How to start off offending people right away"
"The @ss-hole's Guide to Offending everybody everywhere all at once"
I could write books like that. How many people think that asking a "Why" question implies judgment?

I think it implies curiosity and a thirst for knowledge

That's why I don't ask alot of questions. I don't really feel like hearing someones input if they just want to be judgmental and sarcastic. There is a big difference in just offering advice and answering a question, and being judgemental to the point of hurting someones feelings.

Yes!
It's more of a statement about the person who is passing judgement on the question....than it is about the person asking the question.
Some people become defencive if they cannot answer a question about something that they are passionate about. They feel attacked...when in fact they are not being attacked, they are being asked for more information about their belief or thought process.

No, it doesn't. Wanting to know why things are the way they are is a good thing, not bad. Better to ask than say nothing and never know. Don't be so oversensitive. Some people are too sensitive for their own good.

Gee, when I was 3 and asked my dad why the sky was blue, I'm pretty sure no judgement of color was implied...
Think its just you...

That depends on the why question. "Why are you such a tool?" vs "Why are you a Christian?" One is offensive, the other is only offensive to a non-Christian.
