Paul Simon's long spiritual journey

Now at 70, he said he has questions about God. In his song, “The Afterlife,” he speculates about what happens after death. He imagines waiting in line, like at the Department of Motor Vehicles.
As the chorus goes: “You got to fill out a form first and then you wait in the line.”
But there’s a serious aspect as well, as the song continues:
“Face-to-face in the vastness of space/ Your words disappear/And you feel like you’re swimming in an ocean of love/ And the current is strong.”
