That's right.

Church does not have to be a church of faith, it can well be a church of reason.

What matters is that people with shared values get to spend time together on a regular basis without getting into status games that might eventually show up no matter what the church.

I've tried a few types of churches of reason and they are pretty sad, honestly. Hard core, dedicated, non-religious person here, so I'm not saying that people should go to Church, but I've never seen anything approximating a Church of Reason that would have satisfied my (admittedly minimal) social desires.
