I’ll take a look. Is he a Buddhist?

God is very real to me as a non-tangible entity.

No, he was an Anglican priest. Now he’s just him.

Cool guy.

God is very real to me as a non-tangible entity.

That’s what I mean. If you say he is ‘non-tangible’, it means you’re making a claim that can never be scientifically tested. To me, that means you’re a human who has emotions, an innate wonder at the universe and consciousness, and a desire and belief in meaning in the world. And you’re calling your interaction with those questions, that searching and questing, and that drive to not just be a moral and ethical person but a fulfilled one, “God”.

I can respect that form of religiosity. The only kind of religious fervor I can’t respect is when people think that they know what God wants other people to do.
