Without examining the metaphor, let’s just assume you are not a Christian, which makes the discussion moot.

Well, it depends what one's definition of Christian is. I would guess that yours and mine are different and neither is wrong.

Why be vague?

FYI, the “body.. temple” verse.

1 Corinthians 6:19 “What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.”

To begin to understand the significance of temple, i.e., God dwelling amongst his people, one then has to study these topics in the Old Testament. It is no light matter.

Blessings.
