I'm tired of the beer and the sissy porn. How do I become a secular Buddhist?!? No religion please.

Read "Outlines of Mahayana Buddhism" by Daisetz Suzuki. It's not a perfect explanation of what the majority of Mahayana Buddhists actually believe, but I think it's just up your alley. He downplays the more mystical side of the religion for the "rational" side that appeals more to scientific minds of his age (written 1903).

Secular Buddhism is honestly retarded. Buddhism just doesn't make sense outside of its supernatural cosmology framework, the whole thing literally falls apart.

This is true of most religions, but there are secular Christians and Jews as much as there are secular Buddhists. Most normies just don't think too hard about it.

I guess you just like pretend that all the reincarnation, karma, and nirvana stuff are metaphors for a material life.
Live as though you would be continually reincarnated in a cycle you seek ultimately to escape.
Lmao.
