A rhetorical question is usually asked to make a point or prompt thought, rather than to seek an answer. It often does not require a response and is designed to be more of a statement or expression of the speaker's viewpoint. The tone, context, and intention behind the question can help indicate when it is rhetorical.

It is a RHETORICAL QUESTION. What makes a question rhetorical is that it is not asked as a question, but more as a fact, and does not require an answer. It is usually defined as any question asked for a purpose other than to obtain the information the question asks. * Example : "Why do you keep doing that?" It is commonly used as a persuasive element in a speech or text. * Example : "Does the government really care about the taxpayer?" Sometimes the question is open to an uninvited answer. * Example : "Do you take me for a fool?"

Why not? Rhetorical questions, as their name implies, are a rhetorical device designed to draw the readers in and make them think. Is this not the point of a reflective essay?
(Alas, although the reader of your essay will be able to spot a rhetorical question, the robots employed by WikiAnswers cannot. They get all shirty when one attempts to answer a question with a rhetorical question, as above.)

To answer a rhetorical question effectively, you should consider the intended message or point being made by the question and respond in a way that reinforces or challenges that message. This can involve providing a thoughtful reflection, offering a counterpoint, or simply acknowledging the rhetorical nature of the question.
