What is a word or idiom that means an argument made in the form of a question?
For example. If one were going to make the argument that you shouldn't just follow along with the crowd without using your own independent judgment, one might make that argument into the form of a question as follows:
If everyone else jumped off a bridge, would you jump off one too? [1]
I'm thinking of a word akin to tautology. Although tautology has a meaning far from the meaning I seek, the color and texture of tautology is similar to what I seek.
