What are you afraid of?

Why do some people create a blog that asks a question, but won't allow people to answer by not allowing comments? Are they so afraid that someone might disagree with them? Is it a case of, I want you to listen to me but you can just SHUT UP cause I'm not interested in what you have to say?

...this question/ topick is up at least once a week...laugh grin
Ooby. .many blogs have already been written about this and I don't know myself why they ask a question if they don't want to hear the answer???confused

Maybe you should ask the people concerned? dunno
It's not a biggie, really

If someone has that much of an interest in the subject matter, they can start their own open blog based on the subject.

maybe it can be explained better by vid than talk or opinion.
MAYBE IT'S A CASE OF YOUR OPINION IS OF NO INTEREST TO THE OP!
MY BLOG, MY CHOICE..wink
prof, Then they should make a statement instead of asking a question.
I think it's more a case of either they can't speak English or they don't realize they have the option to allow comments or not.
I enjoy my quiet time after night shift viewing blocked blog,long blogs or long videos,links.
they are entertaining and appreciated.handshake
I believe if you remember what you were taught in school as it relates to the type of questions, you'll know that there are open ended questions which require a response with an explanation. The close ended questions require no details, either yes or no answer. Finally the rhetorical question which requires no answer, it's main objective is to have the reader thinking and to encourage an action.

Rhistorical questions are used mostly in persuasive writing and essays.

Please go back and see my blog as it indicated that you should treat the questions as rhetorical.
