Totally true, I have grouped myself.  For me, it was more a long process
of discovering what I believed, and then accidentally discovering that
Buddhist teachings and my ideals were a close fit.  I didn't "join", I
more-or-less "am".

But, it is still a grouping, and you are correct.  It's almost necessary
for the sheer convenience of it.  I could list all of my beliefs, but that
would take waaaaaaaay to long, so Buddhist it is.

and thanking both for the contribution to my well-being.)
