But basically
I don’t call myself a Christian.

I don’t know if I believe in God,
but I believe that
there must be something after death.

I believe that the souls of good people
end up in some kind of eternity,

I would not exactly describe it as heaven,
in the Christian definition.

I believe that the Bible lays out
some very good ideals of how to live
and how people should
live by being "nice" to each other
and so on,

but ultimately,
I guess I just don’t buy all of that
fire and brimstone stuff,
and miracles left, right and centre.

I even found out a
little bit about Buddhism,
and liked some of the
stuff I found out,
until I found out that they have,
shall we say,
very strict views on
sexually and
what is sexually "proper"
(for the lack of another word).
