I take it that you dislike the notion of knowing the answer before asking a question.

That is a tried and true method that has exposed many an untruth 🙂

in reply to the OP . People often get personal (in this context ) as some opinions can only be held in ignorance . which is a personal failing.. therefore addressing the failing can't help but get personal.

So in your opinion it is OK to lie on a chat board but not OK in court.

Isn't that double standards ?

i dont know where you get that from, i havent stated that opinion.
