Is there a point that it will become to unprofitable to mine in order to actually get any value of Bitcoins so no more Bitcoins will be coming out? 
Mining after many halving or even when all bitcoin get mined can still remain profitable due to high fees associated with every bitcoin transaction as well as by that time price per bitcoin may be thousands of dollar so even few satoshi fee may count like 100$ or more.

Correct, the price gets suitable with the distribution, the basic things on the economic. in this time block at 12.5 and the price are $700 and the upcoming block the bitcoin will towards 6.25 caused by halving, the price will eventually equal with the previous block doubled price.

It happens each 4 years, approximately. It was launched in 2008, the first halving was in 2012 and now, in 2016 was the second one. We expect the third one to happen in 2020. It just becomes harder and harder to mine it.

So, I need to learn more about this.  I know it happens after so many blocks are found.  But what does it actually do the value of Bitcoins, does it make them worth more, less?  Is there a point that it will become to unprofitable to mine in order to actually get any value of Bitcoins so no more Bitcoins will be coming out?  Anyone have any good reads on this?

What my point of view is if the demand is bigger than supply the price rise.
Nowadays bitcoin demands increase step by step which means it's possible when halving time coming the price will go up. It's doesn't rule out the possibility if bitcoin will die, but it's have %0.00000001 possibility bitcoin will die.

Until there I see no oportunities to earn money holding, price will stay stable... Thanks for the site @requester

Bitcoin reward halving occurs on every approximately 4 years of interval.

Is there a point that it will become to unprofitable to mine in order to actually get any value of Bitcoins so no more Bitcoins will be coming out? 
Mining after many halving or even when all bitcoin get mined can still remain profitable due to high fees associated with every bitcoin transaction as well as by that time price per bitcoin may be thousands of dollar so even few satoshi fee may count like 100$ or more.

There a re a few websites with countdown to the halving, a simple google search will find them,  and the halving usually makes bitcoin price increase in the run up to it.

It can go either way.  Block halvings halves the block reward, and once that happens the miners would want to sell their bitcoins at higher price so that they won't go bankrupt.

No one knows what will happen in the future.  Mining can become unprofitable at any time and some miners will quit mining because of it.  The thing is the mining difficulty will also drops when the network hashrate drops because of miners quitting, so the difficulty may drop up to the point where mining can become profitable again (even if that makes one bitcoin worth $100 or less).

Why you should think about it. ..?? , I'm happy to be part of the bitcoin. But I don't really think about it, because it could have been changed by well when we can always invite more people to use the bitcoin. Do you mean the block is not necessarily something we can do research or check forever, because each time the block will change
