Generating Questions

Generating Questions
“Why do we dream?” This is the question that reached out to me first, and really caught my eye. This is because dreaming is something I don’t do anymore. I stopped dreaming when i was asleep since middle school, but every few months I’ll get a dream. Dreaming is something that I don’t remember much of.
A possible hypothesis for this question could be: “If we dream, then we dream about what we fear the most.” This would be represented as a “nightmare”, because maybe a little kid would dream about monsters, or an adult would dream about going bankrupt.
  1. Why does everything that exists exist?
  2. Why can humans not see in the 4th or 5th dimension?
  3. Why is technology so complex?
  4. Why can some people work like machines, while some people can’t even focus on a single task?
  5. How does “learning” actually happen in our heads?
  6. Why have humans come up with a look for pretty and a look for ugly? Why can we distinguish what is pretty and what isn’t?
  7. Why have our noses been able to detect things as good-smelling or bad-smelling?
  8. Why can we decide what tastes good and what doesn’t?
  9. Why can we hear songs that sound good or why do we hear songs that sound bad? How do we interpret these things?
  10. Why do humans “age”?
  11. What is the meaning of life?
  12. Why do humans have interests in certain things?
  13. Why did humans evolve?
  14. How did someone come up with the idea of having a spoken language that doesn’t sound like monkeys fighting?
  15. Why are certain things associated to certain things such as bananas with monkeys?
  16. What would the world be like without money?
  17. What would the world be like if there were still empires and city-states?
  18. What would the world be like without technology?
  19. How did music come to be?
  20. Why do humans have the urge to steal or the wanting to break laws?
