Answer 3

My friend asked me this same question, and as a poet, I told him that I would write him a piece giving my answer.  Here it is:

Wonderful, Why?

Why?

Very vague, yet alluring:

What is the nature of thy query?

What causes the maturing

of the question left unburied?

Why?

Why, Why what, might I ask?

Is this a question of existence,

or only a tiresome task?

Is there some form of resistance,

or just an empty cask?

Why?

First, though, I must wonder:

Who out there will care?

Is this just a blunder?

Do I really dare?

Why?

Why raise the subject?

Why put forth the test?

Shouldn’t I reject

the future unrest?

Why?

So vague, but I’ll reply:

Why is reserved for the mind,

for only man can try

to understand and unwind.

Why?

Only man can ask,

and only man can answer.

Why give me such a task?

I’ll give you back a cancer.

Why?

Man alone can reason,

and man alone can wonder.

Why then becomes the treason

that sets our minds asunder.

Why?

Why separates man from beast,

for man can see beyond,

when others see only the least

portion of earth’s bond.

Why?

Why is a fantastic query,

and it belongs only to man.

No lesser mind of beast or fairy

can understand the way we can.

Answer 8

We want to know the nature, causes, or principles of reality, knowledge, or values, based on logical reasoning rather than empirical methods.

We do not need to do experiments.  It's handy.  It's by the process of questioning, we learn and we know...

we are helping each other to know too ... over Internet Q&A.

Answer 9

"Why?" is not the grand question of existence. The first subjects in metaphysics, which is the First Science of Sciences, is "Being" and "Becoming." Not "why" are they, but "what" are they?

So your question should be "what?"

Answer 10

How?
