"Where do your questions stop?"

They don't. That's what science is about; no matter how much it learns, it keeps asking questions to try to learn more.


Then your questions are infinite, are they not? What is more unscientific than infinity?

Tangentially, if I keep asking questions about God and trying to learn more about my religion, am I practicing science?

The mathematical concept of infinity is fundamental to science.

I am not aware of infinity being considered unscientific.

"Tangentially, if I keep asking questions about God and trying to learn more about my religion, am I practicing science?"

Only if you are applying the scientific method to it.
