Yes. If you're trying to block spam, you should also remove your ISP's
mail server from the MX list. Your list of MXes should include only
machines that have similar policy controls against spam/viruses.

It's because you've added your domain to "relay_to_domains" but not
actually configured anything to do with it except deliver it as normal by
DNS lookup, which means that you effectively have a loop - hence the Exim
error.
You need a manualroute router. Something like this, although this assumes
that you are assigning a manual route for all domains in
+relay_to_domains:
reroute_domains:
driver = manualroute
domains = +relay_to_domains
route_data = ${lookup{$domain}lsearch{/etc/exim/domain_routes}}
transport = remote_smtp
no_more
Then in /etc/exim/domain_routes have:
yourdomain.example.com: your.internal.mail.server
