This could only be the question you have just asked, the question I am responding to right now. This is not a real question with an objective focus of enquiry. This is a virtual situation of enquiry created by your questioning of your own question. This virtual situation has no objective purpose, but to baffle the mind, and create feelings of perplexity and surprise. I am only responding to this situation.

You see, this to me is like a single person standing in a room, in front of a mirror, trying to hold a conversation with himself. He can ask himself questions, and then he can answer his own questions, but all he can ask as a question is all that he already knows as an answer, and all he can reveal as an answer, is what is already known as his own question. During the entire process, no exchange of information has taken place, and no gain of objective knowledge has been made possible. The question stays unanswered, only the virtual situation created by a reflexive questioning of the question itself partly explained.

This is just my response to a virtual situation of enquiry created by your questioning your question. This is not an answer to your question in any sense. And your question, Sir, remains the only winner in this contest. Congratulations!!

Excellent query. There are probably a lot of questions that don't have any answers.

Examples that may fit:

1. What is the sound of one hand clapping?

2. If a tree falls in a forest, and no one is there, does it make a sound?

3. Where did God come from?

4. Are we alone in the universe?

5. Does light stand still on the edge of a black hole?


Et cetera.

All questions have answers. If a question can be asked at all, it is also possible to answer it.

Every question has lots of answers. Some are just better/more relevent than others

Even "I don't know" is and answer so all previous answers are void..

the only question that cant be answered is one that is impossible to ask -

Every question has an answer, but not every answer is based upon valid evidence.
