What is a good rhetorical question?

Side note; a rhetorical question is not a retort, though some people use it as such, it is rhetorical as in rhetoric which is sort of a teaching that you follow to the letter with out any thought what so ever kind of like some religions or even those without religion. That said a rhetorical question is more of an idiomatic question (idiom) because it is so often said. example 'what is truth' 'what is normal' 'which came first the chicken or the egg'. There are no good rhetorical questions, they all suck just as bad as the idioms they have become.

Am I right or am I right?

Right! No. Right! No... ARGH! As this is a rhetorical question I believe it is not supposed to have an answer. I also believe people shouldn't use wikianswers for rhetorical questions. Wikianswers is supposed to be used for finding out things not for fun with rhetorical questions. Things like this shouldn't be put on. Remember the one you saw before? Saying you are actually left to die? I would be utterly offended if they were saying that to me. So in conclusion, I suggest you do not put rhetorical questions up unless there should be an answer. P.S. Neither. You are not am I right. YOU ARE RIGHT! But unfortunately, you did not say why you are right so you are right about nothing. :P
