Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
The WHOLE premise of a rhetorical question is that it answers itself or does not require an answer!.

If a rhetorical question were to have an accompanying answer, it would no longer be rhetorical!. Therefore, there can be no rhetorical answers without eliminating their rhetorical questions all together!.

As another issue, the exisitance of truth does not require the existance of falsehood!. It could be that everything in the universe is true!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

isn't the opposite of a rhetorical question a non-rhetorical answer!? what's the definition of rhetorical, anywho!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

but if there were answers to rhetorical questions, they wouldn't be rhetorical, would they!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

Or answer it with another rhetorical question!? ;)Www@QuestionHome@Com

opposites are a human invention and not always actual logical opposites!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
