What does DovBear really believe?

DB writes that he believes that "Heaven and earth once intersected at Sinai, at an event we call matan torah". But what does this mean? Is it the kind of fluffy bs that I like to write occasionally, for example "The Torah is Divinely Inspired" i.e. inexact enough to not actually mean anything at all? Or does DB actually believe that 3500 years ago a man named Moshe actually received some kind of Divine transmission, and wrote it down, word for word?

Inquiring minds want to know. And no, this isn't a "tzitzis check", it's a "are you a big faker" check.
