He used likes to study the Buddhism, and wants to be a Buddhist monk. Maybe it is unbelievable and we can't support it, not be support. but I don't think so. There is a proverb in China. "子非鱼，焉知鱼之乐", which  That means, "You are not the fish fishself, so you can't feel the fish's happiness." What do you think about it?

I went to MIT and in my last year took a religion class with Huston Smith. I learned about Buddhism and ended up going to Japan for a year to learn more.    There are a lot of different paths for us fish.
