The following is from a blog called Naked Pastor (www.nakedpastor.com)...now before you get all giggly about the name, his nakedness is spiritual, not physical. Think about what he has to say...
The question is more important than the answer. To press it further: the question is the answer. Jesus often answered questions with a question. He did this because he was answering (questioning?) people who needed a fixed answer and who lived according to their answer and demanded that everyone agree with their answer. They questioned Jesus to expose His disagreement with their answer so they could justifiably execute Him. Jesus answered them with questions to expose the emptiness of their answer and the fear which sponsored their answer and the murderous hatred which their answer spawned.
