It sounded the whole time to me like he was wavering on the edge of pantheism, but wants to call himself a Christian, says he doesn't know what God is, but the impression he clearly gives is that he still believes in it/Him/Them/Everything? If you don't know what something is, how it operates, where it is, or about any of its properties or how it acts on or interacts with the world, how can you claim to believe in it? I don't know what a shcnoodlehausensnausagebofer is, so how can I believe in it or claim a belief about it?

I'm confused.

You know pantheism is historically part of the Christian milieu.
