I am Lost...

Last night was the finale of ABC's hit show 'Lost' and I have a few questions that were not answered in the finale. I really feel like Damon and Carlton missed the boat by not giving us some resolution to these issues.

1) Why was the Man in Black not able to leave the island, but Jacob could come and go as he pleased? Also, how did Jacob get on and off the island?

2) If Jacob was a mortal man capable of being killed by Benjamin, then why couldn't he be seen in plain site when Ben took Locke to his cabin?

3) Also, how was his cabin able to move around from place to place as if it were a ghost?

4) Why was the Island purgatory for some people, like Michael, but not for others?

5) How was Smokey able to take the form of people who were still alive such as Walt?

6) Why was Desmond "needed" to pull the plug out of the well in the cave? I didn't see anything at all that had to do with electro-magnetism down there. Jack managed to survive it just fine.

7) As a matter of fact, what did the magnetic properties of the Island have to do with anything now that I think about it?

8) Who were the Others and what was their purpose on the Island? They seem to have been there for a long time? What was their beef with the Dharma initiative?

9) Who were the people that Jacob and Smokey's mother killed? Just another group of shipwrecked folks? Jacob brought the Black Rock to the Island so who brought that group?

10) The sideways world seems to be Jack coming to grips with himself and his purpose in life in order to pass on to heaven. Why then were all the other people from the Island involved (e.g. Sayid's story had no relation to Jack whatsoever).

11) Was it Desmond or Jacob that brought Flight 815 to the Island?

12) Why weren't Rose and Bernard at the church in the end. Surely they would have died by then if Hurley had?

12) Why was Smokey able to kill Jack (eventually) even though he drank the eternal life wine?

13) What made Smokey mortal again? He didn't go into the well.

14) In order to get to the Island or leave it, you had to follow specific guidelines. How did Lupidus manage to fly them home safely? Also, what happened to Widmore's explosives on the plane?

15) Why do Ben and Widmore hate each other so much and how was Ben able to kill him?

16) Jacob's touch meant that nobody could harm them. So how were Jin, Sun, and Sayid able to be killed?

17) Really, Sayid's soul mate is Shannon?

18) What the hell was the yellow light at the center of the Island?

19) How did the donkey wheel go from being vertical to flat and what the hell was it? If turning it unleashed the light which sent you off the island, why did it kill the Man in Black and only send Jack to a rock a few yards away?

20) Who were the dead bodies in the cave by the light?

21) How does Jimmy Kimmel host a 'Lost' wrap up show without Sawyer, Hurley, Kate, Sun, and Charlie?
