A thinly-veiled plug for political ideology, which will never accomplish what religion can.
Religion isn't special or even that different from a political ideology.
I didn't really get that sentiment from the article. To me the author seems to emphasize the importance of religion/spirituality as important for providing an "existential orientation," although that point is somewhat obscured by their flowery, albeit precise, language. Though they do wrap up with that odd citation about having a cultural council, which seemed a bit out there for me.
