Churches don't appeal to everyone, they also aren't anonymous.

I'm not saying this as an anti-religion thing, churches are a great source of community and it's probably the best thing about them, just that this is a very apples-to-oranges comparison.

Also I don't think this is a replacement for anything really. A supplement perhaps.

I think I get what you're saying. I'll say that this product isn't really meant to substitute a community. In fact, I'd consider it a failure if Gentle overtook other sources of companionship in a person's life. My belief is that tech should augment rather than replace, if that makes sense.

There is nothing to replace in a church if they never had a place for you.

Seriously?

This comment is wrong one more levels than I can count.
