IMO, this is a pretty neat thread. Unfortunately, I'm afraid that I do not have an answer. However, your op motivated me to consider the following idea:
Suppose a non-question-begging point has been established regarding some human idea or concept. Then what is the question-begging point from which to start? For example, if humanity reached a consensus on a given concept and ultimately accepted it as true, then what were the questions, (or even the initial question) that lead them to this consensus? Must there be an answer or non question-begging point from the beginning? Are non question-begging points ultimately derived from points of question-begging uncertainty?
Thanks. Live long and prosper, Mudhammam.
