Wow, what an exciting finish to the last riddle, really good job. This is a 7 on scale of 10 for difficulty - good luck and 500 points to winner!
By using logic you lose me,
and logic, it guides me,
the end never equals the middle,
a pretzel for the mind. What am I?

I am going to give a real way out there answer. Since it to me seems to be most likely the answer being riddle. I am just going to say love. Because face it love is that confusing, And love always increases or decreases never stays the same. But I am almost positive I am wrong.

paradox
Good job Moses, 1000 points to you. Good guesses all around. For those who do not know, a paradox is a statement that basically contradicts itself. An example would be: "You tire faster from standing than you do walking." Other examples include "Less is more.", "All men are equal, but some are more equal than others.", "By losing your life, you find it.", "They have ears but hear not.", "Deep down he's really very shallow.", “All men destroy the things they love.”, etc etc. Conventional wisdom would dictate one way of looking at the statement, but a paradox can open another view or stream of thought.
By using logic you lose me, - usually a paradox will defy logic
and logic, it guides me, - logic is needed for the final equation
the end never equals the middle, - self explanatory
a pretzel for the mind. - you have to think in an uncoventional manner to fully understand most paradox
Good job Moses, next riddle posted later on.
