>1. These philosophical questions are the most fundamental in the pursuit of true knowledge
>2. To try and answer one of them requires the answer of a different question, due to the possibility of that question’s answer being negative and therefore making the original question impossible to answer
>3. Yet, to answer the second question relies on the answer of the third question, yet this too relies on the answer of the fourth question
>4. Leading to the fourth question needing the answer of the original question to be answered, therefore the only way to answer the original question is to already know the answer thereof
>5. This cycle is repeated in all questions, leading to them all being impossible to answer and therefore unknowable, the only possibility of answers to these questions coming from an omniscient being
>6. As we are unable to know the answers to any of these questions, it must follow that all knowledge is unknowable, as to answer any question would require answers from these fundamental questions, which, as of being unknowable, also makes the original question unknowable
>7. Furthermore, even the state of unknowability is unknowable, yet, if this is the case, that just means that everything is truly unknowable
>Common counter-arguments: “If any of them are false, the answer causes the answer to self-refute” – the existence of the self-refutation needs an answer of another question, this question self-refuting too and needing the answer of the original question to confirm existence of self-refutation, making it impossible to know the existence of either self-refutation and making thereof void.
>Any argument given after the state of unknowability is achieved is void due to it being unknowable.
