No one needs a spirituality forum. What everyone does need is the opportunity to hear the word of God and get born again. If this forum contributes in any way toward that end, I'd say it's time well spent.

wait, what? if i hear god he kills me then gives me a new life? if you're killed by god do you get to choose where you'd like to be born again? i'd go for that.

If there is an afterlife that is not obviously followed by another afterlife, (i.e., if people we know there, and we, never die) there will indeed be a need for an after-spirituality forum, because the question of the meaning and purpose of the afterlife will replace the question of the meaning and purpose of this life, with much more force.
And the question "What is the good and why should I hold to it" will also be reinvigorated, at least for those whose moral behavior hinges on there being a judgement day in their future.
