And we again just push the problem back one step...

That's the whole idea. Every answer generates several more questions. The challenge is finding answers, knowing we'll never find all answers. The journey IS the destination.

Except of course, some people want absolute, ultimate answers. But again, no problem. Just make them up and believe in them sincerely, and the ultimate problems are solved.

In truth there are only two possible answers to the problem, there is either an eternally existing mind or an eternally existing natural world. We haven't and may never be able to prove which is true, but we only have evidence of the existence of the latter.
