My friend Steven has some interesting things to say about, “begging the question”. In brief, it doesn’t mean to introduce a question, or to raise one. It is quite different from that, meaning most everyone is using it incorrectly. This is how I met Steven, actually. He corrected my misuse of it on the site here.

He then goes on to note that simply knowing how misused the term is serves as a shibboleth.
