yes

No, but I've been mistaken for one several times.

No, I am not, but of all the "religions" in the world, it is the one I respect the most.

I'm not anything. But I spent 5 years in Zen Buddhist training, and know a lot about Buddhism. I don't use it to define my identity, but I do agree with a lot of it.

I'm not a bona fide Buddhist. I've only begun to learn it but so far a lot of the things that I've read and heard make a lot of sense to me. If I were to be a Buddhist, I'd be leaning more towards Zen because I believe that you, as an educated, responsible, knowledgeable, and self-sufficient human being should make your own inferences about life based upon your own experiences instead of blindly following any one teacher's teachings.
