Raised to worship the New York Times on Sundays, I found myself going to church and praying instead. I thought a lot about God and flesh and blood -- and didn't tell my friends I was becoming a religious freak.

    Where is this so called subculture? Who comprises it? What evidence do you have that there is such a thing? It's perfectly fine for you to post it, but it's actually quite meaningless without some reference to its actual existence. I have two graduate degrees, and, while it seemed useful to get them at the time, they have no direct bearing on anything I've done for the last 20 years. They did help me achieve the mental discipline that has been key to my success during that time. I've lived all over the country, but I've never experienced this subculture you reference.
