Why does everyone ask the stupidest questions?

Answer 1

The expression applies to learning things and knowledge. If you dont know something about what you are interested in and someone else does and you dont ask a question that is going to keep you away from the ultimate goal. The questions that people ask that make no sense or that have an obvious answer are the silly ones.

Of course, there can be SOME stupid questions found in learning, such as when a pupil or apprentice asks a question about a statement/object/instruction that was just immediately shown/said to them. These people have a sort of block that prevents them from learning certain things with ease, but they are indeed teachable, and those people who call them bad students or "Unteachable" are bad people. ANYONE can lean, and EVERYONE should try.
