If you have a well-structrued ontology, there is no distinction between expressing a question and expressing an answer. They are isomorphic.

A question can be expressed as a statement using Relational algebra.

The question is static. If your ontology is static, then so is your answer.
Well-structured "ontology" is not only of benefit, but also of detriment.
If/when there is no distinction between a question and/or an answer,
the question is invariably fruitless, thus "structure" presents as a barrier.
Some answers require the transcendence of space and time entirely
thus questions rendering them invariant are needed to be found and asked
for any such fruitfulness to ever bear.

"Seek and ye shall find" implies the answer to any question
is to be found in the right question asked, however only if asked.

Thus the conscience concerns inquiry, (hence 'science') as employed by the self (hence 'con')
whereas consciousness further implies the ongoing state of navigating choice-by-choice
according to the constituency of the being in terms of their rationale. That is why:

v = s/t as velocity being space about time
e = t/s as energy being time about space
____________________________________
space and time are naturally coupled.

s³/t = physical
t³/s = meta-physical
____________________________________
time also has the same 3 dimensions as space.

In terms of the same, no question means no growth,
and some beliefs are never questioned, hence death exists.
Those who do not use the conscience, lose the conscience, hence
all discernment and discretion is forfeit upon death because
this is precisely what the conscience grants: the ability to discern.
As this depletes, time appears to speed up relative to the observer
as time and discretion are one: time and space are discrete units
in v = s/t hence +alpha and -omega are a null universal binary
which serves to satisfy all measure, according to the
sincerity/integrity of the one measuring, circling back to "choice".

There are alternative states to "structure":
liquid, such to assume the form it enters, also
gas, such to expand/contract a form, also
fire, such to destroy/create a form. All of these
are dynamic, as needed for a universe of motion.

*yawn*.

Any question about any ontology requires transcendence of the ontology.

Whether the ontology is 'variant' or 'invariant' pretty much depends on your ability to sample the ontology faster than its rate of change.
Either you can describe the ontology in its totality (change and all) or you can't.

The set of "any questions" is contains the set of "right questions". None of this bullshit matters.

If your ontology is deterministic then any asked question is answerable.

Questioning any ontology already fixes the barrier to the ontology:

The fruitful question(s) assume no ontology such to import the barrier(s) associated
thus all questions ultimately collapses into, thus explicitly concerns, the inquirer.

Variant/invariant depends on time and space: if neither are concerned, there is no "sampling" involved.
If "sampling" is involved, it is not time/space-invariant because it takes time/space to sample.
Knowledge is immediate: it takes the form of a presence, as in a temperance, thus has the same quality as light.
Ignorance is the same, however is the former of an absence (of knowledge), as in an encumbrance, thus has the same quality as darkness
as in a collapsed body whose gravity is such to consume light, rather than either generate its own or reflect the light of others.

As above, so below: it applies to both stellar evolution/cosmology and just simply being.

I didn't understand your first sentence, thus what you are referencing, however:

Unfortunately, contrary to popular "belief"... there is such a thing as a relatively stupid question.
Such as that of Lawrence Krauss asking "how will the universe end?" Understand: that man spent his life
in pursuit of that one question, thus the impetus of his being reflects the same.
There are problems with such questions:
i. they don't know to any degree of certainty how the universe BEGAN (if, even) let alone should END
ii. the question prompts looking up-and-away instead of now-and-here such to ignore:
iii. better questions, such as "how will human suffering end?" which would have relatively immense practical application
so far as using "science" to help/evolve humanity is concerned. Instead, he choose a relatively stupid question.

Therefor he is a good example of "Western" science: asking stupid questions
that have little to no practical meaning/benefit, hence "fruitless"
despite the "ontology" (ie. reality) of so much human suffering.

Belief itself is not the same as belief-based ignorance.

It is possible to believe someone/something without knowing the same to be true
with it later turning out to be actually true, however it is not knowledge
until it is acknowledged as no longer containing degrees of uncertainty.

Belief implies presence of one or more degrees of uncertainty.
Knowledge implies the absence of the same.

In thus knowing all: not to believe one indefinitely approaches all-knowing (theist/atheist-invariant).
The potential for the same lies in the conscience of the being
as a reflection of the quality of their own way of inquiry
such to distinguish truth from untruth. This instead of
good and evil, the latter requiring "belief" thus all eaters of the tree
of the knowledge of good and evil are "believers" such
to bring suffering and death into the world.
No, all of being exists through a relative formless unactualized state at one time or another, thus requiring belief for actualization.
It's the other way around: actual begets potential.
The constituency of the potential is based on the consciousness of the being.

False, all actual states results in a potential state which results in another actual state. Actuality and potentiality cycle.

Answers are static, whereas
questions are dynamic, thus
potential and inquiry are related.

He must first believe in order to try. That beleif is that the program may work.

The same is true with belief:

The same applies for religion, for many it turns life into a better state, thus other people replicate what they see in others.

All belief is the movement towards a state which is yet unactualized. It is the movement of an actual to a potential with the potential being actualized into a state of form derived from formlessness.
You have it upside-down: all belief is static, knowledge is dynamic.

Beliefs are changing. For example one believe one thing about a person's character and in regards to a new action the belief may change.

Answers are static: they are fixed.
Questions are dynamic, they cause movement.

Answers are subject to an infinite regress through analysis, one answer leads to another then another and a continual movement.

You ask a question. You subject it to alpha/omega
generate a movement to/from truth (accordingly)
such to posit new questions, thus new movement.

To ask a question is to make a knowledgeable assertion. To ask "what color is the sky?" is to necessitate an assertion that the sky has color. All questions require what you would call static knowledge.

Those who ask not questions, but merely believe to have all the answers
(such as: as contained in a single book as "revealed" by a single all-knowing god)
are the ones who are both suffering and stagnant: they have no conscious knowledge
of their own belief-based ignorance causing the same, thus turn to blame and abuse.

The scientist’s perception of philosophy is that all too much of philosophical analysis is a sterile word game played in a state of mental muddle. When you ask of a scientist if we have free will, or only think we have, he would ask in turn: “What measurements or observations would, in your view, settle the matter?” If your reply is “Thinking deeply about it”, he will smile pityingly and pass you by. He would be unwilling to join you in playing what he sees as a rather silly game.

Space and time are discrete units of motion. Any/all physical bodies,

Very 'You'ish.

There is an existence other than space/time. However it is not quantifiable.
See, space/time as speed implies time/space as energy... which is not quantifiable.
If I asked you to count how many energies there are in the universe, you could
and rightfully so, accuse me of asking a stupid question.

There is only one energy: that is the inverse of all motion.

Thus "division" is strictly a local phenomena, according to the constituency
of the body(s) concerned as displaced. Belief-based ignorance tends to do that:
de-couple beings from the 'one energy' for their own "believing" they are somehow
not in/of that same energy, as present, as ever-present as any "all-knower" must be,
should one exist, thus knowing all that one both: knows truly, and knows truly not.

Image

This axes transcends space and time:
beg/end are ever-(non)-local, alpha/omega
capture all possible binaries. However,
'binary' assumes 'not one' hence 'duality'
is a product of ones own making. The axes
is universally bestowed, locally employed
and transcends space/time by them being
invariant.

Therefor which binaries does one "sample"
such to transcend? Well, there is one particular one
warned about in the book of Genesis concerning:
that such a universal binary used as terms to bear fruit
leads to nothing but death over death. And it is true:
those who absolutely believe to absolutely know
good and evil, while in reality they are actually wrong,
the same are thus absolutely dead wrong, the warning hence.

Thus all gravity of ignorance begins and ends at that tree
but those who believe do naught: but believe, believe and believe...
...meanwhile the answer is inside of themselves, as bestowed
as according to their own employment (or not).
