At what point do we as philosophers, thinking beings, start going around in circles and contradicting ourselves with our own answers. Can logic make itself work againist itself?

Of course, if you think long enough you can think yourself out of existence. If you take it for what it is however, I don't see a need to worry about it. Every question that lies within us is produced because we are trying to bring out the answer (which we already know). Everything is nothing, nothing is everything. Everything is confusion, confusion caused by understanding too much. It makes sense at the same time it sounds like gibberish. I think logic can be understood better if we try not to complicate it so much. The universe is a complex place and the only way to understand it is simplicity.

There has to be answer to every question, even if we don't necessarily know what that answer is; If we are wrong, we wouldn't know unless someone made a discovery. We have to keep digging in an eternal hole of answers, and questions. As for logic I don't think it can work against itself, of course ever body has their on view and perspective on "logic"

No and yes. No it is impossible to run out of answers and yes logic can work against itself-it is called a paradox.

alot of answeres create new questions and taoism states that the mind should never come to a conclusion or the mind is shut.

`No. As long as we have you, we will alway have new and fresh questions. As long as we have me, we will always have new and fresh answers.
