Theres a lot of speculation about TWA Flight 800 so thats pretty interesting. I some how stumbled on CPAN one night and the guy that wrote TWA 800 Crash Cover Up Conspiracy was giving a talk. Listening to the commenters afterwards, all were either engineers, pilots, or former air force and seemed to be in agreement with the author. Theres a TWA Flight 800 documentary as well.

Absolutely. Look at marijuana. Most people I meet that oppose legalization also oppose the government defining their moral values. It's backwards.

In both of the companies I've founded, I had to wear too many hats. As a result, I have not excelled in any particular skill, rather I've gained medium level of experience in variety of skills from development to product design to finance.
You gotta be nicer to yourself. Honestly, in my mind its impressive having exceelled in all of those areas. And you found 2 startups and the second one was a success, although not in your eyes, which you gotta stop saying and start understanding or asking what success really is.

Physics makes me a Physicist
Thats not what I said. Thats comparing apples and oranges.
I would bet my bank account your are Jewish, and you are religious in the eyes of this Jew, regardless if you are as religious as your father. I dont doubt the talmud is intellectually interesting, but the reality is those that are studying it ARE religious. Even the koreans you keep referencing; even if they aren't religious at all, they are in the minority for those studying the Talmud that way.

Well, speaking from a secular point of view, studying the Talmud in and of itself makes you religious regardless of the education you are getting from it.
You are funny. You are basically orthodox for whats considered Jewish around me and yet you don't even think of yourself as ,"very religious".
