Reply to comment by mofongo in Religious anarchists - how do you square organized religion with anarchism when it's so hierarchical and authoritative? by BabyCroc

I think the point that Dumai was trying to make is that there's a huge difference between religious experience and organized religion and so-called religious anarchists find value in the former more than the latter.

right, and I also think that by not treating the abstract as concrete you accept that pre-discursive experience can never be explained, and often religions do well by being unapologetic about that ineffability.
