Anyone who has even the occasional spiritual thought is going to come up with a question that can't be answered. Who am I? How does that spider spin such a perfect web? How does that tiny sperm and egg combination create a perfect human body?
Questioning, curiosity--these are inherent in our human nature. The look of wonder in a baby's eyes is the innate desire to explore and learn and experience this great wide world. It has been the job of most of the world's religions, unfortunately, to lay down answers that can't be questioned. Note that this goes against our deepest essence as humans. Therefore, it is not sustainable, as we are seeing so many fleeing the rigidity of established religion.
I've learned in life that many questions beginning with "why" cannot be answered. Maybe someday when we are no longer in human form????
