I agree CoAlpha Brotherhood should support religious members. I think there's many religious folks who can benefit from being members of their church and also members of CoAlpha Brotherhood. Religion serves as a regulating factor for feminism and family values. However many churches have grown weak, so it wouldn't surprise me if religious folks would want to join CoAlpha Brotherhood for additional support.
However, the expression "don't reinvent the wheel" comes to mind when considering religious members. I don't see why people whom are religious and who can could already attain membership in well established religious groups would want to join a hybrid organization. I mean there's no reason for a Jehovas Witnesses or Hasidic Jews to join our group. The only religious folks I see joining us are individuals who lack a church to join already.
Part of the reason I've joined CoAlpha Brotherhood is because I see it governing body that fulfills the role of religion without being purely religious. I think there's a fairly large group of people like myself whom desire the benefits of religion, but are atheists. I say this because I think atheists whom desire religious benefits are going to be our largest demographic.
