I don't believe it is an unanswerable question. In fact, I'm willing to bet that anyone who believes in God has answered questions like that for themselves. The biggest test of faith is to challenge it. If you can get past those obstacles, in a manner that makes sense to you, it only serves to strengthen your faith.
Personally, I don't believe in God. I have many reasons. A lot of them stem from that question, but mostly comes down to the fact that I just don't believe. And that is what makes these conversations so dangerous. Your (you, me, everyone) beliefs are shaped from years of internal debate (at least they should be, or they are weak).
