where there's a question, there will always be an answer. If not for the answer, the question would never exist.

Are some questions really worth asking?

That depends on the person.
For example, would you really want to know the identity of John F. Kennedy's killer(s) are? (If you are a conspiracy buff, you know that there are many who believe that Oswald did not act alone.) Would you want to find out that the US Government was involved in the assassination?
Would you really want to know what was on the 18.5 minute gap of the Nixon Watergate tape? What if it revealed that Nixon was more than a crook, i.e., that he broke US Government laws, was a racist, etc.?
I'm not saying that there is anything to the above statements. I only know that there are people who "want to know."
If you had a question about whether you were adopted or not, would you want to know? If you did determine that you were adopted, would you want to know who your real parents are?
Some people want to know these things. Others believe in the adage, "Be careful what you wish for because one day you may certainly get it."

No.
For example, I don't remember what I had for breakfast exactly two weeks ago today. If I wanted to, I could look at a calendar, try to remember what I was doing on that day, ask my friends and family if they remember, etc. But it wouldn't be worth it. Because it's just not a very interesting question.

If we are meant to solve the mysteries of the world or answer all the questions, it will be given to us.

All questions are worth answering, to those who are asking.

Sure, because there will always be those who thirst for knowledge. Mysteries/questions ensures the use of our imaginations which can lead to learning experiences.

Maybe not, but it's the search that's the most interesting part anyway. I like learning new things & hearing other peoples theories. Sometimes the answer for one person won't work for another.
So keep on searching !!!

there are no stupid questions.
then again, Some truths I would rather not have discovered,
Sometimes, the idiot is blessed: for he does not have to worry about these things. Much knowledge brings much grief. Then again, what is the life of a leaf flowing in a stream?

starting with this one, sure. depends how much you feel the need to know.
I'd like to know (along with another answerer) who shot JFK.
then there are other mysteries I really wouldn't want to know; like what's really in pork sausage?
