Ask Vader......

smorr: Who will win the Super Bowl, and should I place my bets based off of your word?
Vader: The team with the most scored points at the end of the match will win. You can bet on it.
Fincent: Where does the word 'question' come from, and why do we feel compelled to answer them? This brings me onto my next thought quite nicely. Because there people feel compelled to answer a question, are there any questions that simply have no answer? This doesnt include questions that we dont know the answer to, because in such cases the answer would simply be "I dont know" or something along similar lines.
Vader: Related to the word "quest" it is derived from Latin quarrier ("to seek"
.
A lot of question can't be answered right now. And that is only positive. If all questions were answered there wouldn't be any development anymore. Open questions are important and sometimes finding the right question is more important than the ability to answer that question. As long as you can ask you are ready to learn. If you think you know all the answers you are either arrogant and ignorant or a superior being like me.

Vader: An answer to this can only be based on personal preference. And it depends on how you define "great" - is it best technique? Is it being influentual? Is it being unique? Is it what most people like?
People usually start a frigging jihad when discussing this topic.

I do understand what you're saying but maybe I didnt word my original question correctly. You say that "A lot of question can't be answered right now." but there is an answer, which is "I don't know the answer". Is it possible to have such a question where there quite literally is no answer, no response, where not even "I dont know the answer" doesnt apply?
Even the most profound and complex questions will warrant a response of some sort. But are there such questions that we simply cannot answer, even just to say "I dont know"?

Vader: That would negate the nature of a question, yes even of communication itself. Asking questions is part of communication. Communication can never be a one way road. Constructing a question that can't trigger off any kind of response would defy its purpose.
Or in other words: it's within the definition of "question" that at least searching for an answer is essential. May it be a final answer, an "I don't know" or at least an "I'll have to think about about it."
The only possible way would be if someone asked you a question in language you don't understand and you fail to notice that it was a question. It is, however, disputable if a question that is not being recognized as such (for what reason ever) is a question at all. It has been encoded as a question by communicator A but communicator B failed to decode it, thus it is a question on the side of the speaker but not on the side of recipient ...

That's a really nice answer. But can't things that weren't intended as a question (such as my very "That's a really nice answer." be interpreted as such? Don't all statements imply in a question? Not the one that (maybe) motivated the statement, but a question that comes after the statement?

Vader: You could rephrase this like the old question "if a tree falls in a forest and nobody is there to hear it does it make a sound?" What first may sound silly actually is fast from it. The falling sends out sonic waves and only when these waves reach the eardrum (or any other device dersigned to hear) it becomes a sound. If not it simply stays a sonic wave. Same with a communication - if nobody is there to decode it it isn't communication and since questions are part of communication there can't be questions either.

jcaranti: Vader@ Thank you for the answers. Seems i didnt search good enough.
Sorry about that.

Kind regards
Jorge.
Vader: Again you didn't search good enough. My first answer on page 9 of this thread was: The driver with the most points in the end. If there is more than one the same amount points, race wins count and so on.
And yes, I missed out a "with" there.
Kind regards
