Question with no right answer?

Question

Do you know of a question with no right answer ?

Answer 2

Answer 3

There are questions with no good answer, only "least bad answer"....such as "Do we let Hitler take Czechoslovakia, or do we go to war with Him?"  Either way you don't get a good outcome, only the least bad one.

There are questions with answers we do not know, and can not know...such as "Is there extra-terrestrial life?".   Given the current state of our technology that is an unknowable answer. There certainly IS a correct answer...either there are aliens out there or their aren't...we just can't determine what it is.

I do not think though that there is a question with "no right answer"...as long as it is a valid question. Remember there ARE invalid questions...such as "Is Jupiter north or south of New York City?" ...it SOUNDS like a valid question...in that one assumes that everything that is not North of New York must be South of it, and vica versa...but it is NOT a valid question as it pre-supposes a frame of reference that does not exist.   (The question assumes, falsely, that Jupiter is on the surface of the Earth, because only objects on the surface of the Earth can be North or South of another object on the surface of the Earth...i.e. New York.   This is, incidentally the same reason why the question "Can God make a rock so big He can not move it?" is an invalid question. It is not unlike the old trick question "Have  you stopped beating your wife yet?" which also makes assumptions.)

So no, there are no valid questions that lack "right" answers.
