Who? When? Where? Why? How?

How often do you ask questions?
I am known for throwing about 3 or 4 questions at people at a time, especially in chat.

Why?<-
I am a curious person, I like to know things. It's one of the qualities of a person who likes to learn.

How is this relevant to me besides school?
Well, in our studies of God and his person he invites our questions. About our circumstances, about the unknown, and foremost about him. We can learn so much by asking questions about God then seeking out answers in his word. That's where all my "Godly" posts come from. We can learn so much by questions.

This is limited to not just Christianity though, the greatest minds of all time will tell you the value of questions.
Albert Einstein:
"Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The important thing is not to stop questioning."
Oscar Wilde:
"In examinations, the foolish ask questions the wise cannot answer."
Thomas Jefferson:
"Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason, than that of blind-folded fear."
Ralph Waldo Emerson: <-(I FOUND WALDO)
"When we have arrived at the question, the answer is already near."

The most well known of all quotes:
"The only stupid question is the one that is never asked."
Why?
One Chinese proverb says it a little more clearly.
"He who asks a question is a fool for five minutes; he who does not ask a question remains a fool forever."

If you don't ask and listen, you probably won't know. You have to listen to the advice and information being passed around you so that you can be better informed. You never know when something that seems irrelevant will become important.

So, where am I going with all this?
Question! Ask! It's better to ask than to pretend you know and then suffer the consequences.
