Suppose liberal secularists got together on Saturday or Sunday mornings to hear moving and energizing sermons on the progressive moral and even spiritual outlook; to network with like-minded friends and comrades; to recommit themselves emotionally to their cause; to experience heartfelt "conversion" or "rebirth" experiences; to sing uplifting and morally invigorating songs; to contribute money; to strengthen their sense of being part of a broader and more powerful community; to develop plans for proseletyzing others and converting them to the cause; and to confer on strategy.
