Surely it is more a case of apparently rational questions actually being irrational because their rationality is based on incorrect information.
If you ask what was before time, it is an irrational and illogical question rather than 'current logic', as the word 'before' implies 'within time'. It is irrational to ask where on the number line a complex number lies hence the term 'irrational number', because there is an irrational belief in many peoples mind that a number must lie on the numberline.

from which smiles did they come from?
where did those smiles come from?
this is an infinitely repeating question...

smiles cannot be created or destroyed,
only changed. wrong!
for smiles to exist they must have a point of origin.
God created the heavens, the earth and your smile.
Well, where did god's smile come from then?

The way you can tell if someone "who knows all and is wise in their
own eyes", they tend to just insult those around them, and that is
the majority of their points in most discussions. Instead of addressing
any question they make attempt to turn it personal, they cannot
help themselves, I believe it is a defense mechanism to protect their
fragile world view, insult anyone who may contradict their belief
system so they don't have to give their points a through examination.

I don't agree with you that nothing is equal to 'null' or 'zero' as
an empty value in programing is still an empty value. Nothing
is what isn't anywhere at all within the progrom.
