Things science can't answer

 

Are there some things science can’t answer in virtue of the fact that it deliberately limits its domain. I don’t know of a scientist who can answer scientifically the question of why something exists rather than nothing. But we can ask the question, and it has some answer.

There are questions that have no answer because the question itself makes no sense, such as "What is the color of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony?"

But "why" questions do make sense, and cannot be answered using the scientific method. If I ask "Why do I have brown hair?" all science can answer with is "how" I do (genetics), but not why.
