Yes.
Why does my wife spend an entire day shopping for a dress only to return to the first shop she went in to buy the first dress she looked at?
Even she doesn't know the answer to that one.

No, there aren't. Everything can be explained, and I mean everything, from the minuscule particle that compose the Universe to the most esplendid cumule of constelations. That we don't have the mecanisms, the procedures, the concepts and the proper vehicles for investigating and show us how they work, it doesn't mean that they can't be explained. Someday, in the future, like in the past humans didn't know where the thunders come from, but after they knew, everything contained in this world will be explained by the man.

Yes.
What is virtue?
What is justice?
How are they related?
There are all kinds of unanswerable questions.
Actually, that's not true. There's always an answer, and we can always speculate as to that answer, but there are definitely questions that we can never know the correct answer to.

Unanswerable questions are asked by reporters all the time. e.g. when are the troops coming home?

MU is a Japanese word
it means there is on question becasue there is no answer. Or that assumptions are made with either the question or the answer, which makes it unanserable

Each "answer" leads to a deeper question. We only think there is an answer. Our minds like the peace of thinking in black and white. Truth is deeper than that and can be debated infinity.
